[Q] Anybody else feel that the optical trackball is like the male navel?

It just sits there. Seems to be a vestigial organ. Any way I can make it useful? Like using it to wake up the phone like in the iphone? Or like a full menu options button like the "B" thing in a blackberry? Any mods that people might recommend? There have got to be other uses for this button than just using it in the ClockworkMod Recovery boots?
Any suggestions where I could find these mods? I know the trackball to wake mod is there somewhere but I cant seem to find it.

yes trackpad can wake phone.

Go into Rom Manager > Download Rom > Ihtfp69 > Goodies for 2.2+ > Download > You can pick just the Optical Joystick wake and apply it to your phone. Backup to be safe, you don't need to wipe to install, just make sure you backup.

Thanks guys!

Can this be applied on any ROM or only on SkyRaider ?

ihtfp69's solution works for me on virtuous. I can confirm that. Sometimes it takes a click extra on the trackball to wake it up though.

It should work on any sense rom, i'm not sure about vanilla roms though. I'm not 100% sure about this so if you are going to try it be sure to make a nandroid backup first.

Maybe not the answer that you are looking for, but there is a free widget in the Market called 'SilentMode OnOff'.
Once installed, you can add it to your desktop(?) as a widget (1x1). It is a button that has 3 states:
* Normal (not silent)
* Silent with vibrate
* Silent without vibrate
It's like a mini version of the stock widget that allows you to enable/disable wifi/bluetooth/GPS/sync/etc.
I find this easier than using the volume buttons on the side to make it silent before bed. Those buttons don't feel like they'll last very long anyway...
HTH,
Mike

It is possible to have the options you are talking about, I have them in my power menu, but you need a deodexed custom rom to get them.
It comes standard in leedroid and rcmixhd, and is an optional addon for android revolution.

Just hold down the vol- button. It will go to silent mode first, followed by silent with vibration.

There's an HTC widget called Profiles under Settings in the widget list. Does the job for me.

Yes custom ROMs such as the latest LeeDrOiD 1.3 / 1.3a have the power menu you describe when you hold the power button however be warned if you are flashing it make damn sure you have Radio S-Off using One Click Radio S-Off. You will need root access and Eng S-off using Clockwork Recovery but be sure you get RADIO S-OFF as if you don't you'll loose full super user access and get other restrictions that come with the latest 2.2.1 build by HTC that there is currently no fix for. believe me this is how my phone is now as this wasn't made clear on the guide on the LeeDrOiD page.

[Q] Help

I'm not sure, if I'm right here. I use this site for the first time.
So, I have a little problem, and maybe you can help me.
Yeah, it's right: I've a HTC Wildfire S.
Now:
You know the phone well I think. My english isn't that good. At the top of the smartphone there is a button with which you can unlock the display/screen. But right there is my problem. This button doesn't work anymore. And HTC won't to that for free.
My question is: Could somebody of you - if it isn't difficult - make a ROM or something like this to change it? So that I can use something different for it? Like the buttons on the display or the loudspeaker buttons?
And there is another question: How I could lock the screen, if this button doesn't work?
I hope you can help me!!

In fact this is not only lock/unlock button, but the power on/off button. If ever your phone gets off, it's dead.
It is not possible to remap the hardware buttons. don't you have guanrantee?

Yes, I know that. But with changing the battery the phone could power on..
Do you mean that you cant do something like I want?

Yes. It is not possible. There is a way to wake up your phone with vol. buttons in a custom rom and locking can be done automatically in the security settings. but when your power button does not work you will not be able to flash a custom rom.

Thanks. That's not that what I hope. But better than no answer
To the guarantee question..normally yes..but they say it's my fault..I dropped it...but yes I dropped it but after 3 weeks the phone doesn't work..can tsomething like that be?

Try claiming on insurance for accidental damage.

Root using GUI on xda, install cwm recovery by alquez, install rom manager using insinks workaround then using rom manager install Henry's Hensemod that allows you to wake by volume

Did you try to put off the button and see if you can "fix" it manually?
I mean, if a small piece of plastic is broken, you should be able to stick it...
I don't know the exact condition, I'm just guessing and trying to help you.

since wfs has only 3 buttons, u broke the third of your phone.... and to make things worse, its power button ...
why dont you go to some phone service, and see if they could fix that button, it shouldnt be expencive, i did that on my htc tytn II....

First of all, I want to thank you all !

Thanks, benjamingwynn. I'm waiting 24/7.

Okay 5 days later I come back. I'm sorry for the lateness but I never normally go on XDA on my PC so getting links = problem. Here's step by step instructions:
1) IF YOUR NOT S-OFF - Use HTCDEV and unlock the bootloader.
2) IF YOU DONT HAVE CUSTOM RECOVERY/ARE NOT ROOTED - Click here, sign up, click on resources then click testing resources. Download the Auto-Installer GUI. Run the installer (Windows?) and then install cwm recovery and root.
3) Download Rom Manager from the Android market
4) Download Hensemod here, flash it using rom manager.
5) Enjoy Henry's wake by volume feature his amazing sense rom.
Any problems then DON'T BE AFRAID TO CONTACT ME! I will always reply even if it is a few days later.

[Q] Disable trackball unlock - rsk sense 3.5 rom

Hi guys,
I'm using the 'RSK team sense 3.5 with amaze cam' rom on my desire and was hoping to disable the trackball unlock feature. It keeps unlocking in my pocket and it's really frustrating. I've seen a few fixes around: one that fixes stock and one that fixes cm7 and was wondering whether these can safely be applied, or whether I need a specific fix for this rom OR, alternatively, whether there is a menu option hidden in the rom somewhere I'm just not seeing.
The fix I found for stock and cm7 is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14453689&postcount=10687
Thanks for your help!

I think that the option for T2U is in RC mix tweaks option.

There's an option in the aroma installer, but it doesn't appear to work. And although there's an option in the tweaks 3D settings for volume-key wake, there doesn't appear to be one for trackball :S

yh the option is in aroma setup like said above. u could look in the attachments of the rom thread coz theres sometimes zip files u can flash in recovery to disable/enable trackball wake etc etc

Did you ever get to the bottom of this? I'm also using the latest RSK rom and the trackball unlock is really bothering me and there doesn't seem like a way to turn it off.

Like i said above, the answer and zip file is there. Go to desire android development, go down to RSK rom and at the end of the rom title there is a wee paper clip (thats the attachments) click it, zip file there + other usefull sh*t.

Hmm... Ok. U could try look in other sense 3.5 roms for the correct 1. This is probably not recommended but i used to do it all the time with sense 3.5 roms and never had a problem. Just nandroid first before flashing anything

Mobile Data drops when screen locked

When ever I lock my screen, my data will drop resulting in me not able to receive any updates from any apps. I use whatsapp and messenger as my main form of communication, and I do not know when people message me as the data drops. As soon as I turn my screen on, the signal bar turns blue, and all my messages comes through.
I have tried reflashing several kernels and ROMS, but they all do the same thing.
Will wiping the SD card every time i flash a new ROM cause this issue? I have tried everything and nothing works.
Please heeelp
Thaanksss

Do you have battery saver turned on perhaps?. Sounds like its set to disable data while screen is off. Power menu in settings should sort you out

But there is nothing, no apps nothing. I just flashed the ROm and only installed whatsapp.
It still does that. The radio and mobile network works fine so it probably is not a hardware issue.

Battery saver is not an app, its a setting within the power menu, settings/power/power saver. You then have the option to to turn off various things when the phone sleeps. I'm on viperx 3.5.5 but most Roms will be similar to reach the battery saver settings

From your previous posts it looks like you've had this problem in January with a nexus using cyanogen ?. Strange that you have the same problem on 2 entirely different devices, maybe its something to do with the way you're flashing....

That is exactly my worry.
The way i flash is wipe sd card, then flash the kernel via fastboot then flash the ROM chosen.
Now i am not wiping SD card, just making a full wipe. Is there a way to fix this error? I locked and unlocked my bootloader, upgraded my hboot and it still doesnt work. What can i do :3

Don't flash the Kernel first sheesh !!
Do all neccessary wipes e.g. Cache/Dalvik
Flash the ROM.
Boot
Let it boot then back to recovery
Flash Kernel
Boot

Thanks for you reply and i will try that out tomorrow!

Not sure if you've already tried this or not, but check this out
go to settings / data usage
flip your mobile data on / off
choose settings, enable Data Roaming, not to worry, your going to turn it off again right away
wait a few secs for it to 'take, then settings disable data roaming, now reboot the phone
hope this helps!

Why don't you try latest viperx, I'm using it and I know everything is working straight from flashing without having to change any settings. Maybe it can help with your camera problem too. If that doesn't help then only option really is back to stock and try get it changed or repaired under warranty and hope they don't notice that its been relocked. Sounds like you bought a bad one though if the camera and radio are faulty.

Only mobile data drop when screen is locked.
