Weird thing happens when i reboot into recovery, when i try to navigate the menu with the volume rocker one press will up or down will translate to a few button pushes
also, the power button turns the screen off, but only after being in recovery for along time
anyone else experiance this?
edit, when the power button turns the screen off it says "back menu button disabled."
This is a known issue. If you keep scrolling through the menus the back button will become enabled and navigation should return to normal.

Is it possible to make it so pressing the power button when on the phone would hang up the call? It would be much more convenient to hang up this way then having to wait for the screen to light up, press the end button, and then hit the power button to darken the screen.

Yes it is an option. Hit menu>settings>accesibility>power button ends call
(it's the bottom option)
Throw me a thanks

Do you have to do this while in a call? In the normal settings panel, I don't have anything under Accessibility. I was prompted to install Talkback, but that didn't add anything like a Power Button Ends Call option.
I don't believe that Sense has the option for power button controls, the other poster must be using an AOSP ROM, which does allow for you to tick the option to end a call using the power button.

Damn that sucks!
does anyone else's cwm jump 2 spaces at a time when tryin to select in item? its completely random and then sometimes when i press the menu button to select an item the recovery goes to sleep. pressing the menu brings it back up but since i cant use the menu button to select items i have to pull the battery
Strange and how do you get acces to the menu button in recovery mode. Or do you mean the power button.

the power button selects your items. just randomly the power button wont act like the select item button it will act like a power button on another phone where it turns the recovery screen off and you just see the cwm logo sitting there, so i have to battery pull its weird. dont know if i had a bad flahs or what i havent seen anyone else have this problem

when the power button puts the phone to sleep in CWR that means you accidentally disabled the Go Back option. You can cycle through the menu with the up button a few times and you will see a note about the Go Back option being enabled. Going the other way you will get a message about the Go Back option being disabled.
The overly sensitive buttons issue is being worked on. Someone is developing a CWR option that increases the font and greatly improves this situation. I'll try to find it and post back here. I don't think it's up to full speed yet though.
Good luck.
Could be a bad flash or the wrong cwm image. There's a toro and a magure. Make sure you have the right one. I sugest flash again.

First time it happened to me I almost had a stroke. I had just wiped everything(!!) and when I hit the power button and the screen went dark I really thought I had selected reboot without having a rom installed!! Sure was glad it turned out to be something simple.
I have put my phone back to stock twice and tried to reflash clock work to see if I could get this issue fixed but nothing seems to get rid of this annoying skipping.
Sometimes if I am going through the clock work menu and I hit vol up or vol down it will move the cursor 2 or 3 positions. I have no idea why it does this...also if i tap up or down really fast i get a "disabled back button" at the bottom and then nothing works when I hit the power button to choose an option.
Anyone else getting this?
everyone gets it. Its just very sensitive to the volume up/down input...take your time and youll get it

But why if you hit up or down to fast it disables the back button?
I don't know what's wrong with my phone, but the screen display is messed up. Sometimes, the screen will display if I keep clicking the power button one-hundred times, but other than that it won't budge. Everything thing else works when I press the power button, the keyboard lights up, the home button and other buttons light, just not the screen. Like I said, I have to repeatedly press the power button so that in a slight chance, the screen might display.
I HATE THIS PHONE! What, do I do?

Need more info.
Can you access the recovery partition and it works fine? Access the recovery partition by powering on the device by holding down: Volume Down, Camera, and Power. Release when the hardware icons light up (down on the bottom: settings, home, back, search). You should see a menu appear after several seconds.
If the recovery partition does work fine have you tried a factory reset?
If it is still problematic within the recovery partition then it is more than likely a hardware issue. Possibly a problem with the power button?
HI guys,
My power button is not functioning right, so I want to disable it. I thought that there is a file for the power button mapping in system/usr/keylayout from other device thread, but i can't find power button related file. only soft buttons.
Can someone please help?
Thanks.

I partially solve it. It's only disabled when the OS is booted up, so when the phone is off, I can still use the power button. The file I edited is Generic or something in System/usr/keylayout
But another problem is that long press (10+ sec) reboot is still not disabled so sticking power button issue was still annoying me.
However, I kind of got the power button fixed now after keep hitting the power button a lot hard. But I have a feeling it's gonna be back again soon..
Oh btw, CM12 has screen on with volume button feature and double tap notification bar for screen off. So No problem there.

And Cm12 has home button to wake. Only problem can be it wakes up in your pocket sometimes. If your problem is solved, please add "[SOLVED]" to the beginning of the thread title.
