My power button is 80% corrupted and it is going to be 100% corrupted so can I fix it now before it be further corrupted or must I change it.(Is there another phone's power button similar to IDEOS X5's)
Thanks.
From now on you can use screen of and lock from play store. By that you can use your search button to lock screen.

Yeah, I'm using lock widget in the status bar but some times you need to use the button like turn on the phone or can't access your rom so if there is another phone's button similar to ours tell me.
Thanks anyway.

I'm looking for a simple app that allows the the Atrix to be woken up via the volume buttons.
I know that there are several other apps, but they all center around removing the lock screen, or replacing it. I *want* the lock screen, I just also want to be able to use the volume keys to wake the phone up.
Is there ANYTHING out there like this? Just this SIMPLE function? I'd even use a bloated app if it allowed me to use the stock lock screen.
Just try widget locker. You can customize it so it can be simple like you want it.
Never live in the past but always learn from it.
"No Lock". Flawless & free..

I gave it a try, and it *almost* works like I want it. I use the fingerprint to unlock, and if you have both the pattern and the fingerprint set, it appears as though after the device wakes up you still need to swipe the screen. This is a hassle. Maybe I'm missing something in the configuration? Also, it appears that WidgetLocker is laggy as hell.

I specifically said that I *WANT* my lock screen.
I only need the ability to wake up the device by pressing a volume key.

I'm not sure why you are upset?
I asked for an application that allowed me to keep my factory lock screen, and NoLock does not do that. If you have "NoLock" enabled, then the volume keys wake up the phone... they also UNLOCK the phone. If you disable "NoLock", you have the lock screen back, but the volume keys do not wake the phone.
Maybe if you had actually read the post, you would have realized why I responded the way I did.
I know there's an app for it. But I can't remember.
One thing is if you have tasker set context volume buttons, task screen on.

I cant find any way to choose the volume button in tasker context. any helpful suggestions?
I'm just starting out with Tasker, and man are there some endless possibilities. I also can't find any references to the volume buttons. Any help would be appreciated.

For now, you caa use "anyunlock" on market. This tool is not stable if you use with advance task killer and fast reboot. This is shorterm solution with me!

This app right in the FAQ section says, "Can I use the standard Android Lock Screen", and the answer from the developer is no... Still not what I'm looking for.
Any luck finding that?
WidgetUnlocker now allegedly supports the finger print scanner of the ATRIX. I have found it unreliable at BEST.
I'm waiting for another release to see if the capability gets more stable.
The problem with wu is that it's canceling the slide to answer and that renders it useless.

Nolock will prevent full lockscreen but allow to bring out of sleep mode via either volume buttons or power button. The timed sleep mode in settings will put phone to sleep.

Hi, I want to unlock my device with search button so i edited the /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl
its like that;
key 217 POWER WAKE_DROPPED
key 127 HOME WAKE_DROPPED
It is perfectly locks the screen but it doesnt unlock. I tried lots of settings but i couldnt done. What should i do? What should i change?
I'm not much into this stuff, but shouldn't the key code be the same in both lines ?
I've removed the dropped from both of the lines and now I can unlock the device. But I can't lock the device
There could be a code on Spare Parts that changes the function of the detach button or something related to CM settings.
Can anybody try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464

One is for not sleeping mod and the other one is for sleeping mod i think. Both of them was the search button in default so i did it that way.

I've changed 'key 217' from SEARCH to POWER but it doesn't really behave as a POWER button after locking the screen.

I think there is a problem with search button function after locking the screen. I found that when im listening music then i lock the screen with search button and wait for 5-10 secs. then press the search button and the phone wakes up. So search button doesn't work properly when the phone is locked. So what we should do now?

The power button enables the device to sleep and to access the power menu (like reboot, power off, etc.). The method that is showed here of modifying other buttons to a power button only applies within the Android system.
Does anyone know how to lock the screen using the search button????

Currently we are capable of locking the device but the unlocking has a significant glitch or error.

MANUALLY:
On a root exploring app, go to '/system/usr/keylayout/'. Then find the file 'qwerty.kl' and then open it with a text editor. You'll see there are lots of information on it. Find the line that contains:
Code:
key 217 SEARCH
Change the SEARCH to POWER and then save the file.
Restart your phone and then done!
AUTOMATIC:
Install 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=467998&d=1292740886 (Credits to appelflap)
OR copy the 'qwerty.kl' file inside this to '/system/keylayout/usr'.
Is there some workaround for power button replacement? .. software solution of course, like some widget .. I notice when using soft lock screen, the screen wont go off permanently, just off for a second, then back on .. only way is to auto disable lock screen, but then slide to unlock is disabled .. any advice?
Arc S, ICS, stock rom, rooted
thanks!
Try power toggles. The best app in the marked. Its free too

If you are looking for lock screen widget then go to google play store,write on search Lock Screen Widget,you'll see a yellow icon with lock,it's first on list,download it,long press on screen and add the widget click on it and acctivate administration,but read the discription.

I'm afraid it wont work, Power Toggles even dont have lock screen option on my device (max 8 buttons, no screen lock among them) and Lock Screen Widget did not power off/lock screen permanently, just off for a second then goes back on to the slide screen .. Extended controls app behave like others - only hardware power button shuts down screen permanently .. something on the system level prevents that function
.. any other advice?
thanks!

You mean all the time or only in lock screen?
I do not know of any way to completely disable them.
Some apps, like Full Screen Caller Id, let you disable them while the device is locked.
