[Q] Power key to reject call - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all~~
with the common problem when you over clock your phone sometimes your phone doesn't wake properly, usually it only happens once or twice out of 50 wakes, but once in a while it does it when i get a call
so the problem is when i get a call, and the screen doesn't wake i can't answer the call so i have to hit the power button, which will end the call, so is there anyway where i can use the trackpad to answer call or disable function of the power key to reject calls?
Thanks~

Hey.... what about using the lockscreen replacement WidgetLocker? It has an option where you can wake the phone using the trackpad. Just a thought...

well i have track-pad wake but if the phone is wake improperly i have to turn the phone off which requires me to press the power button first =/

Oh, I see. I misunderstood. What a pain. Well, good luck.

Ending call with power button?

When I swapped from the iPhone to android, I really missed the button on the top of the phone to end calls. It was very convenient, I think.
I was therefore delighted to see that the desire had a button on top that I upgraded from my hero immediately (amongst other reasons of course!)
Problem is, when you press it while in a call, it just turns the screen off. Does anyone know if someone has developed a hack to end the call with the power button?

Download and flash the Defrost 0.9 ROM from richardtrip. In Accesibility in settings, you can then enable the end the call from power button
While froyo is cool, I'd prefer to do this in my current sense Rom.

Strange that it doesn't work when in-call. I know it (the power button) disconnects/hangs-up a call whilst ringing, because I often accidentally press it whilst pulling it out of my belt case and it hangs-up the incoming call. Grrrrrr

Alternate way to "wake up" your phone??

Folks can anyone tell me if there is an alternative way to wake up your phone besides pushing the power button, i know there are alot of threads about it but havent been able to find the answer?
Any help would be appreciated

You could try screaming at it or violently shaking it, or perhaps banging a loud drum in close proximity to it. No guarantees that those methods would work but they would sure wake me up in a jiff.
Not as far as I know.
Myn's rom has a way you can put a sleep button in the notification bar. Edit: I just contradicted the question, idk of another way to wake it up. -_-

widgetlocker allows you to wake the phone with the volume keys
Plug it into a power source...this brings up the unlock screen.
Simple answer is......................... No
Slap it's ass and then throw water on it. Works on my ex. LOL
Send yourself a text message, plug it into USB.
Try this
Proximity Screen Off
It uses the proximity sensor to turn your phone on and off without touching the phone. It takes a bit of work to set it up but it does what you want.

If you turn off auto screen lock then you can wake up the phone with the volume buttons. There are several apps that turn ASL off. I only use screen lock when I go out and have my phone in its case. At home and more so when I'm tinkering around with the phone the screen lock can be a pain. Can I say screen lock more times or what? lol
download No Lock from the Market. Disable the lock screen, then you can use the power button, or the volume buttons to wake the phone

[Q] Screen off until button press with incoming call?

Just wondering if there is a way (or an app) that enables the screen to remain off until the power button is pressed when there is an incoming call? At present I'm using Dialer1 and I often find I've missed a call and the screen has remained on since the time of the call. Obviously this chews through the battery so I'm keen to find some way of either making the screen switch off post-missed call, or require that the power button be pressed to switch the screen on when a call comes in...any help most apreciated!!

Power Button to End Calls...

Hey everyone,
I have the push power button to end calls option enabled, but I have noticed bug with it.
When using the phone on spearkerphone, the screen still times out and turns black. Touching the screen or pushing the volume rockers does not wake the screen back up. So basically there is no way to add a call, bring up the dialer pad, etc. Pushing the power button obviously ends the call.
The way it should be designed: pushing the power button ends the call ONLY when the screen is up to your face (proximity sensor activated) or the screen is on.

[Q] Prevent sleep during call

Hi,
I love my HTC One X but one thing drives me insane. Once I've been on a call for a minute, the screen goes to sleep and I can't get in to any of my apps like Calendar etc that I need to check during a call. The only button that responds is the power button which ends the call!
Can you please let me know how to prevent sleep during a call?
I've just bought Tasker, so I'm hoping that I can do something with that, is that the best place to start?
Thanks,
JD
It shouldn't be doing that by default.
You can turn on/off the 'power button ends call' option in accessibility

I'm facing the same problem, other than the Power button terminating the call.
This is getting on to my nerves now!
Is there a fix to this?

Perfect, that fixed it, thanks!
How do I prevent the screen from going to sleep, while on a call?
If I am on a call and I get a call waiting tone, I look at my screen and it's blank. Similarly, like I said earlier, at the end of the call too, I can't end the call because the screen is again blank!
The Power key seems to wake it up, but it is annoying to keep pressing it all the time.
