Was just wondering, is it even possible to modify the behavior of the power/volume buttons? It's a bit sensitive and imo placed in an odd spot.
It would be great if there was a way to modify it such as :
power button - either disable it, x clicks to turn screen on/off or a long press to turn on/off with a longer press to power down... just examples
volume rocker - disable
Thanks
There is a xposed module xposed additions
It will do that things u described.thanx.

Hey guys. So I recently got my new galaxy s7 edge, and I found out that you can't change the volume while you're on the lockscreen. I have a fingerprint lock on. Is there any way to fix this? Also, is there a way to put the phone on mute with the buttons? The buttons only take me to vibrate.
I disabled my lockscreen and instead changed the button mapping to only turn on the screen when I double press and hold either power or home with Xposed Additions, which works perfect (Home button sometimes doesn't wake, power does). Problem though is this damn annoying battery warning keep on waking my phone.
Anybody know a method to disable it that still works on Android 6.0 Touchwiz?
Hello everyone here,
I just run into trouble - a power button on my Galaxy J5 failed. Few days ago home button failed too.
Device is still on and running, so I need a quick check for not locking myself out.
1) after phone was locked - can volume keys wake the screen? (so I can enter e.g. an unlock pattern)
2) does J5 require to press power or home button to turn it on (e.g. after power down)
3) does J5 require to press power or home button to wake screen after it is restarted?
also, if anyone would like to suggest...
4) how can I access restart menu? or just restart the device?
5) any other issues I can run into?
6) can the be a software issue?
7) can a non-affiliated repair shop get this easily fixed or would they probably make things worse?
any advice is welcome!
phone is not rooted. Lock screen security (pattern) is now deactivated.

thanks!
Plug in charging, if it wakes up its working!!
thanks for feedback!
yes, it is working I installed Gravity Screen app and it seems to be doing fine with turning screen on and off.
The only question left is what to expect if the battery should run off one day or I'll need to reboot the phone or take out the battery... I am afraid it expects pressing power button to start booting, but its not working... any ideas?

Yep.. Then you'll have to take it to the service centre, that's the only solution I can think of.. :silly:
today the power button misteriously started to act again. I'll stick to Gravity app for waking the screen and hope the button will work in rare cases when needed after powerdown....
thanks everyone for suggestions!
I`ve just upgraded from a S7 edge to an S10+ and the main thing I miss is the ability to double press the home button on the S7 to trigger the camera app.
I have mapped a double press of the bixby button to the camera app, but that will only work once the device is unlocked.
Is there a way of triggering the camera app directly with a hardware button press when the screen is turned off??
Just double press the power button.

Thanks so much! I did search for this but couldn't find anything other than bixby button reassignment
