That's because you forgot to take the magnet from the old case and glue it into the new one!!!!
I'll dig up pics for you.

wake power on using capactivite buttons?

on my diamond i could disable the key lock and wake the device with a button press, is anything like that possible with the touch hd's capacitive buttons? it seems like a good solution as only fingers would be able to turn the device on. looked around and wasnt able to find a thread on the topic (other than shake to wake and the strange angling of the power button)
If I remember well it was Sensorlock or similar lock replacement that had an "issue" not being able to lock the hardware buttons. So I am 100% sure (as I tried it but dunno which one) that there is an alternative lock app that would fit your needs. Hopefully that "issue" is not fixed in the latest releases of the particular app

Not exactly what you are looking for, but have you tried LockMeLite, pocketshield or s2u2?
Those buttons are not capacitive imho. I can operate them with fingers/stylus/stick of wood ...
Anyways, would be nice to have such a thing.

Oops... I am using rss to read xda and thats why I didn't notice that this is a BLACKSTONE thread... Touch Pro has those hardkeys capacitive (to determine the position of finger +(!) two "real" buttons under the 4butoon field to "fulfill" the press command... dmn... it is morning. My english is stuck! Happy Eastern!

change Button LEDs

Hi there,
can anyone explain me how to get access to the control of the "Button LEDs"?
I know there must be a way because in Android those LEDs are glowing for example when you touch a button. At WM they only glow if you PRESS a button or touch the scroll wheel.
Thank you in advance
+1 here, that would be a nice option too
OK, what exactly do you all want? Buttons that light up on touch? is that all?
I'm brainstorming on ideas for my next version of X-Sense, so.... be creative!
Cheers

That would be a first step. The default settings (light up all LEDs on button press or on scroll wheel touch) is just stupid.
The next step could be something like use the sensors on the buttons as extra buttons or use the LEDs as indicatiors for diffrent stuff. The scroll wheel for example seems to have 3 or more diffrent LEDs as Backlight. This could be used to indicate the battery status.

Customizable options for the so the lights can follow your touch when scrolling ?
Not practical but it would look good
But how could we interact with the sensors?
I dont think they land somewhere in the message queue of windows mobil. I think we have to rewrite the driver which is responsible for them. But maybe I'm wrong, because I don't have a lot of experience with the windows Mobil API. I prefer managed code like C#.
As far as I understand, the center of the dpad is the only part of the hardware that has the capability of sensing when you touch it. The only way you are gonna get the other buttons to respond is with a button press unless you modify the hardware.
try the latest version of xdandroid. if u thouch for example the back key, it glows.
so, no. every button has a sensor on it
Just so we're all on the same page, the entire area below the screen is a touchpad, it is sensitive to touch & motion - there is an app that implements this very nicely as both a touchpad and touch launcher/Task Mgr. My xsense app already interacts with button lights to show several events (i.e. stylus out, volume profiles).

OK Sorry! I have the cdma diamond on sprint so I didn't know the other versions(gsm) had touch sensative buttons! My d-pad is that way but the others are not. Forgive my ignorance.
Y'all should check this app out; I'm not in league with the developer, but I recognize his talent on this one. Its an amazing app that does all of the above and more - and there's a trial version:

this app looks nice.
Is anyone out their who can explain me how to catch the events of button-touch area?

Google for Koushik's sensors.dll library; it comes with sample apps etc...
in his libary is only a event for the rotation of the scroll wheel...
touch lock pro
As I know, app called "Touch lock pro" can do some settings with the ring LED's, so this can be the way

I used CPU-Z to verify sensors it seems OK

Have you turned off screen rotation? I suspect you might have.
There is a toggle for it in the extended toggle section of the notification drawer.
yes I do it

Recents and back button light

Hello,
Can I change color or keep the led on in night mode for the capacitive buttons ?
I'm on stock OOS.
u can't change the capacitive button color on the phone, even if u're rooted, since it's not a rgb light like the notification led.
maybe there's a mod or a custom rom that can enable ur capacitive button in the night mode, which mean u should root ur phone. but until today i never saw that there's a mod/rom like that. also i think it's not a big problem if the capacitive button is off, i always set my capacitive button to always off
