I used to have an XDAII (the very first) where the unit could be woken up by pressing any button. There was a setting in the control panel that allowed you to set it to only recongnize the power button or have the other buttons wake it up. Naturally I set it to the power button, but after a while, that button got worn down and stopped "working" so I naturally set it to recognize any other button.
This experience has taught me the hard way, that its a good choice to have (or maybe even a necessity in some cases) that other buttons to wake the unit up in case of situations like this.
I've just bought an Atom life and unfortunately it ONLY recognizes the power button to wake the unit up. Is there any hack or software out there that could enable the other buttons (or better yet, allow selection of which buttons can turn the unit on)?
I'd like to use the large middle button on the front if possible, since that button seems more "sturdy" than the power button. I may be able to save that poor power button from years of wear and tear.
just realized i posted in the wrong section. Moderators, feel free to move it to the parent Atom section, and my sincerest apologies
Hi, nargalzius
I have been search for decade, but i still cannot find the way to assign other button for waking up da device......
same problem here...
anybody out there figured this one out already?
bump
did anybody find a hack for this?
I have just the opposite problem. I use the headphones that come
with the Atom Life - the button on it not only turns on the device.. if
you bang the mouth piece on something (without hitting
the button), it turns it on too!! I'd love a solution to that
I use O2 Flame and got the same setting, no other hard key than the power button can wake up the device from sleep. Anyone knows the tricks or registry hacks, please share. Thank you very much.
Atom Life Wakeup Button
Hi guys, there doesn't seem to be an answer on here and I assume the reason is as follows - Atom Life also wakes up by pressing the "end" key... (I think this is a general hardware setup)
I was also a bit weary of the power button being worn out, so I did some experimentation and found that the end button works a treat if you have the same concern "end - s2u"... swweeet!
Hope this helps.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You mean when the phone is in standby mode and you press the END key, the phone will come out of standby? Beats the whole purpose of standby then
I do echo the same "problem" of not being able to change the mapping of the power button to the front button.. ( as I was able to do with my XDA II)
I 'm confused about the "end" key solution..
Anyone finding a solution ?
Thank you all
Nearest program might be MORT saver? it allows you to specify the button that put the device in to MORT stand by and therefore the same button that will awake the device. Not exactly the power button option that you talk of wanting but at least MORT also stops the device from waking up when any of the buttons around the action button are pressed.
Hello im looking for simple app if anyone cancreate this will be awesome.
There already have many free litle apps that Turn your Screen OFF but.. they only Turn the screen backlight off and your device is not really into sleep mode.
My sugesstion is if someone can create a simple light Sleep Model Togler we can install it and assing some of the softkeys to SLEEP and when you press it just the device go into sleep mode.
So this will be good because you dont need anymore to press all the time the power button if you want your device to sleep, and after long time of using this power button often get broken.. so when we can turn into sleep model by pressing the assigned softkey will be perfect and easy to use with One HAND no need to press the power button anymore.
Im talking about the Blackstone but this app will be usefull for all others too...
P.S Sorry i didn`t know that the app Is Already Avalible and Thanks to virgilp to pointing this out

Hi!
Thanks! Sorry ;-)
Hey Guys,
The title said everything is there any chance to disable the volume control in the lockscreen? It is annoying when i have the phone in my pocket on work, because sometime I came on the sleep/wake button and then on the volume control buttons.....
I´m using Leedroid 6.2 with Sense.
volumn control position for right handed people is not proper
I am still looking for answer for this issue . This is very annoying to me as I hold my my fingers Are on column botton. And mostly it is pitting phone on slient mode. Any solution for that?
Hi Guys,
I grabbed a S4 Mini recently and need to find a way to stop it powering off when it is in a protective shell.
I have a Pelican i1015 for the phone that it fits into, however the power button on the side gets depressed when the case is closed.
God knows why they put it there.
Is there any way to stop it from powering off on long press if the screen is turned off?
Cheers
You should be able to remap the button default action with the Xposed Additions module installed.
Thanks! will that stop it for powering off when long pressed though?
No, it won't (if you want). You can set or disable actions for click, double click and long press of hardware buttons, separately for screen on/off states.
