The problem I have when I am using the phone, but by mistake I have press the power button which the phone will directly go to sleep mode.
Do anyone know how to increase the respone time for sleep mode (For example, when press power button time over 3sec, it will go to sleep mode)
Thanks for any suggestion and help
Anyone can help and Answer
I just got my Focus today and even before I turned it on I put my USB jig in and it went into download mode.
Hopefully this will help with future development.

What is a USB jig? And what do you mean by download mode?

Download mode is a Samsung thing that lets you flash new/different firmware with a program called Odin.
The Focus may also have Recovery Mode, which is a way to install packages without the OS running (therefore any file can be replaced bc non are in use).
[MOD EDIT] - Download mode on Samsung Android devices uses Odin for flashing but Samsung WP7 devices use the WP7 Downloader Tool. Lets not confuse other users!
Recovery mode is an Android thing.
Here is how to use the USB jig very simple

I have a Captivate that I use the USB jig on so I thought I try it on my new phone.
It would be a lot better if there were some ROMS to load.
Ya, download mode is easily achieved with a button combo. I just held all the touch buttons, volume down, camera, and power. boom - download mode.

No need to hold the touch buttons. With phone powered off press VOL DOWN, CAMERA & POWER. Phone enters Download Mode.

its actually vol down, camera, power, and the windows menu button.
the combo you speak of is the factory reset/format.

I beg to differ. CAMERA BUTTON, VOLUME UP AND POWER is factory reset and format. The same button combo with VOLUME DOWN is Download mode.
At least on my phone anyway, and I only was playing with button combos yesterday as I had a replacement phone I was setting up and kept putting it in Download mode by accident. The only difference I could determine was the volume button position.
We are talking a Samsung Focus right ? The three finger salute with volume down button, power button and camera button will reset the phone. There is a confirmation to press the "windows" button after that.

Maybe I had that backwards then, maybe when you do the three finger salute with volume UP it goes into Download mode.
Thanks for the link clarifying though!

Confirmed on my Focus, with phone turned off,
VolUp + Cam + Power = download mode
VolDown + Cam + Power = reformat
So, as we all now, Samsung has brought back the silence mode with the update BOC 3/BOC 5.
But the problem is, the only way that we can select the silence mode is through the Notification Panel or on Settings. We can't press and hold the volume - button to get the silence mode (like kitkat), we'll stop at vibration mode. :crying:
So, i was wondering if someone could fix this problem ?
it's possible to have back the silence mode through the volume button or no ?
Thanks so much !

As long as I remember, in kitkat also volume button was stopping at vibration.
There is a lot of info about key combinations for boot modes, but all of them are either incomplete, wrong or do not clearly state which button is VolumeUp and which VolumeDown. I want to clarify this in a small thread.
Put the tablet in front of you, so the power button is top left. Now we've got the following modes:
Factory Reset - Hold power and right volume button - works?
Update from sd/update.zip - Hold power and left volume button - works
Recovery - Hold power and left volume button - ???
APX - Attach to PC and hold power and reset button - works, display stays off?
Some people state that it is important how to set the the screen lock switch. Is that true?
Could someone please add the info which of the volume buttons increases and decreases volume?
I am not sure about the recovery mode. Does it replace the update mode if TWRP or CWM is installed?
HELP
My phone's power button is already broken so I can't turn it on using the power button. I tried to by using the charger and hold volume DOWN and HOME button and it takes me to download mode.
But I don't know why I can't cancel it by pressing volume down nor continue by pressing volume up. All I can do is holding volume DOWN, and HOME button again but then it takes me to blue android screen says "no commmand", then recovery mode shows up. So now I'm stuck at the recovery mode.
Can you help me find the solution for this problem?
