[Q] How to disable Home button with Lollipop - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm looking for a solution to stop the phone from turning on the screen when the home button is pressed?
Many time I take it in my pocket I'm hitting that button and the screen is turning on.
I'd prefer that it only turn on when I click the power button.
I think I have to go in : "/system/usr/keylayout", but after I don't know what to do.
Any help or suggestions?

Unlock with power button ?

When I leave my Jasjar running for a few minutes without touching it, the screen goes black and the only way to bring it back is to press the power button... but I would like to be able to press the keyboard buttons or touch the screen to bring it back... any ideas ?
and yes, "Do not lock buttons" has been checked in the Lock tab of the Buttons settings...
Any ideas greatly appreciated !
If you press that stupid 'Backlight' button it comes back on too!
Although thats pretty useless too! :roll:

on/off button defect - am i able to reactivate the phone without that button?

hello...
my on/off button is defect. so i cant switch it on. Only via reset

thanks for help
not sure about hermes but my phone turn on at the press of any key unless i set it only to turn on by on button in buttons in settings
Go to the settings, then to system, then go to the keylock options in there and set it to not lock at any time.
Works with any key, but its not really a good idea to have that in your pocket.
I would say you should get the button repaired instead.
Thanks a lot guys...
does someone knows how i can switch off the phone? everytime i want to swithc it off i have to push the reset button or do a soft reset :/ i thin k a regular shutdown would be better...

[Help]Turning the display on/Lock hardware button

Guys wanna ask something..
Pressing the power button turns of the display, will pressing the other buttons (Call, home, Back, windows) bring the screen beack on?
I just realized mine is like this.
Can i lock the other buttons so that only the power button brings the screen back on.
Any registry tweaks for this.
Thx.
+1 from me.
I swear I thought only pressing the power button brought the lock screen up. Now ANY button brings the device out of standby.
lol i just realized that just now

[Q] Broken Power Button

I Know there are more threads with a broken power button but nobody has given an answer to the problem. I have a HTC Touch HD. The power button (on the top left) won't work. Usually , when you press the power button, you can feel it click, and the screen turns on and off. But now, the button just goes down when i press it, and you dont feel it "clicking". So now I can't turn it on.
Does anyone know how I can get it on or fix it?
Thanks...
Update: ive opened my mobile, so now can i see whats beneath the power button. I don't have a clue what mechanism it should have (how the click works)... How it normally looks.. any suggestions?

Power button

Hello,
I have a strange problem with my Nexus. My power button is acting strange. Long hold brings up power menu, but:
- short press does not turn screen off
- Smart cover also does not turn screen off
- double tap to status bar does not turn screen off
- 15 seconds of timeout also does not turn screen off.
What is happening? Thank you.
So your screen will not turn off at all besides powering off the device?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thats right.
Well i don't think the power button itself is the problem since it works to power it off and on, and since the screen wont sleep by other methods either.
Did you flash a new ROM, kernel, or other mod before this happened?
