they have really improved the power button on DHD over the Desire...Ive had my Desire button replaced already...because its not flushed and the design means that it protrudes a little out from the body slightly, feels flimsy after a few months...DHD feels much better, I think its because of the internal design...

to open screen you can use tap tap app and to close it use screen off app. in this way you can protect your power button.

Yea I used that tap tap app just brush ya finger over sensor on the top right hand corner and it works really like it personally

Hmm, I haven't used this before, but I'm liking the sound of it. There are quite a lot of apps that don't work yet on Gingerbread, I don't know of any alternatives, but it's likely the developer will eventually get an update out for Gingerbread devices

I have no problem with my power button being too flush. It works fine how it is

Hi I found 2 apps worth mentioning
1 AnyUnLock
2 ScreenOff
I use AnyLock my self to unlock the screen. Using Volum Up/Down buttons. Better than Power button I guess

Mines starting to decay also =D

Hey, i like AnyUnlock, but it seams to kill my security pattern, is there any program that lets you use the volume keys, AND makes you do your pattern?
Tap Tap App, is good, but it reduces power life
Is there anything else on the market?

Self wake up....

Hi,
My phone is self waking up when I logo the screen all the time. I think it got some water in it, ( something small, because the rest is all working good ) .
So, I would like to know if thete is some sort of sensor or something inside the phone that makes it wake up on lock screen ....
Thanks
Daniel

Wrong section.

is your phone rooted? if it is then you need to fix persmissions on the recovery menu.

Waste of a post, if that's all you were gonna say why post anything at all.
Anyways, to answer the OP, are you running a custom ROM by any chance? Also only thing I can think of is the sensor waking up the phone... But that can't be it. If you're on stock ROM then go ahead and do a factory reset and see if problem still persists.

Hi,
Sorry. I was on custom Rom ( fusion 118) . I did load my stock back up Rom and same thing happens.
I know the only way u can wake up the phone when it has the screen locked is with the power button and the action button. I thought that the buttons could he stuck cause of some water, but no, they don't do any action whrj I'm running any application. So, I believe that the phone has to has some of sensor that activates the screen whn u hit power or action key....
Any idea ?

Or u use a button remapping app which will need root and change you buttons as you like
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium

I think Sense 3.0 + ROMs have an issue where either the power menu doesn't work or you can't use the power button to end the call, and most chefs will opt flexible a working power menu. Never properly used a Sense 3.0 or higher ROM before though so I may well be wrong here, and it may since have been sorted

Here's a button remapping tool.

(Q) ParanoidAndroid 3.5 - long press home for recents? - SOLVED.

Edit: Please disregard this post. I've changed to xylon as I simply can't live without this feature. Thanks!
Does anyone know of a mod or anything that implements this feature? This is the only thing I miss from other ROMS. Thank you!

This does not actually answer your question, but what is wrong with the recents button? Are you trying to get rid of the recents button but still have access to the feature? I'm just curious what's going on here.

I'm just used to having 3 navbar buttons, rather than 4. It just seems cluttered in my opinion. So yep, I'm trying to remove the button but still have access by holding the home button.

But there are three nav buttons by default... back, home, recents.
