Unlock with the trackpad?

Is there a mod out there that can be applied to the ota that let's us power on the screen with the trackpad? Reminds me of my old Eris.

I'm pretty sure last time I checked that remapping the trackball was not possible

It is possible. I do believe Chads kernel comes with it. That or CM7 has it. I can do it with my phone, at least. It doesn't always work on the first press, so you sometimes have to hold it down. I noticed when I'm charging it works first time, every time. Unsure why that is though.

You can use Button Remapper from the market or google it. Also Sky Raiders, OVO, Synergy, CM7 and most roms that are not stock have the option for trackepad wale

if you poke around in /system/usr/keylayout you can find two files "incrediblec-keypad.kl" and "qwerty.kl" these two handle the mapping of the keys so that android OS knows how to handle they key events.
I don't have the OTA so I haven't tested it but back in the day you would find the DPAD_CENTER line and change it from WAKE_DROPPED to WAKE.
I played a lot with these files because I really wanted a decicated CAMERA button and the OJ was perfect for me. Hope this helps and I wish I could test this before I started making suggestions to you. Good luck.

As far as the why, it is because the phone screen is still "Awake" if I remember correctly. If you power your phone off then immediately press the optical button, your screen will come on but it won't if you wait say five seconds. I've noticed the same as what you stated occur in one of Nils' older gingersense roms.

Huh, weird lol. Never noticed that myself. I usually don't lock then unlock lol. Quite interesting, though.

Bottom Haptic Buttons Unresponsive

Hello. My haptic buttons (4 bottom touch buttons) are sometimes unresponsive. Sometimes when i'm using the browser I'll get stuck in it for a few seconds. And often after unlocking the phone they are also unresponsive. I just move my fender around the screen to make it come back. It's not a big issue but it is annoying.
Is there a fix? thanks!

Ive had it a few times when i start the phone back up in the morning, only seems to happen to me when in not usung it, i believe i read somewhere that this was an ics issue...ive found somewhat of a fix by going to settings/display and setting hardkeys to always on....drains a bit more battery but your problem will happen so rarely afterwards itll become a non issue..hope that helps! If it did, flash my rom and visit my thread!!!!

I've had this on ICS on occasion as well, after waking the phone up. I do the same thing - move my finger around to get them to come on.

I can't find hardkeys always on options. can be it same as tough key light always on?

This isn't an ICS issue. It happens on custom AND stock GB as well.
Often, you can make them responsive again by hitting one of the volume keys, too.
I doubt its a hardware issue... It must be a driver issue.

Volume Issues?

I've been loving my new LGOG, but having a minor issue.
Yesterday night and now again this morning i have lost all media volume. All other volume levels work fine. When tying to turn up the volume using the buttons on the side of phone, i see the volume slider but does not increase. I also tied to move the slider on the screen to increase, the slider moves but then after i lift my finger it reverts back to no volume. Both times i noticed, i was using different apps so I'm not sure if it is an app issue or not.
I reboot the phone and fixes it (really fast reboot compared to my last phone). I'm trying to recreate the problem but nothing so far.
Anyone else having this issue?

This happens to me. Usually if I have Netflix open, then try to watch something on hulu or YouTube while Netflix is in the background. Simply closing Netflix seems to fix it for me.

Had this happen once, had to reboot.

I do have netflix and could be the culprit. Will check it out and update.

I saw it once. Even went to the main sound menu to check volume sliders and 2 of them were greyed out. Still not entirely sure what I did to fix it.

I had the same issue. I would turn up the volume and I use 3 different music apps. I turn the volume up and down and it stays the same. I exit one and open the other and no luck. I have to restart the phone in order to get it to work again. I don't like the fact that the volume levels are too low. I installed the DSP Manager and no luck with the performance. I later installed Walkman with sound enhancements and it did help a little. Stll trying to see if there are other solutions.

I've tried to replicate but have been unable to do so. It has only happened to me those 2 times which got me to start this thread.
I don't know if was a fluke or what. Makes no sense.
Anyway, a reboot fixed my issue when it happened.

Galaxy S3 Volume Not Working

Hey, i'm new to the forms so i just though i'd give you a background on my problem. Basically at random times when i try to turn up or down the volume the phone won't let me. Its almost like volume is disabled. I thought it could be an app or the recent firmware update but it seems like that ins't the problem. The only way i can get my volume to work is by rebooting my phone. Then i can adjust the volume for a few hours, until it happens again. I've had this problem for about a week now and its extremely annoying. I apologize if this is not in the correct category.
The attached imaged is what it looks like when i cannot adjust my volume.

Same Problem Here
I have the exact same problem. It's very annoying as I pretty much have to restart my phone at least once a day just for some volume.

I've had it happen randomly too. Only solution I've seen is a reboot

What roms are you guys using? I see its not stock so if you all have the same one its probably the rom causing the problem.
Odin back to stock snd see if it still happens.

Volume keys not responding during call?

My volume keys don't work at all when in a call when the phone is held to my ear. To change the in call volume I have to take the phone off my ear so that the screen can come on, and then press the volume rocker.
Is this by design or is there something wrong with my device?

Update: this seems to be working intermittently for me. What could be the issue? I'm so stumped.

Same here. It's pissing me off. Anyone else have this issue?

I have the same problem. Stock international + ROOT and Xposed. It's really really annoying.

Hey,
Exactly the same configuration as above. Same issue as you all guys. I think this is intentional though

I don't believe it is, it would be the first phone I see with this "feature".

Ok, now I am really getting confused. Reading of @angadreme also having Xposed, I thought it must be some Xposed module. I disabled all of them and rebooted -> volume buttons working with screen off during call. I thought it could be one of the options about volume buttons with screen off of Sense 6 toolbox, so I re-enabled all modules except S6TB and rebooted. Volume buttons still working. Then I enabled S6TB again, rebooted and... volume buttons still working.

Still not responsive in call

Hey,
Am now wondering if my phone has an issue...I had this 'feature' (you're true, this should not happen at all...) since the very first day I bought it...all stock and so on.
Now that I'm running ARHD 8.0 with or withouht ElementalX, with or without Sense Toolbox, still the same issue...not TOO annoying, but still.
What do you suggest ? Shall I go for a replacement ?

No, it's clearly a software issue, I don't think it would make sense to ask for a replacement which would most likely have the same problem (assuming that they accept to replace the phone). If it's a firmware bug, it will sooner or later be fixed. If you had this problem even before rooting, it might be related to some app we have both installed. In case you find out more, please let me know, I am also going crazy for this little annoying issue!
By the way, after my last post, the volume buttons kept working without problems until I next rebooted the phone, which was several days later. Now they are again not working. -.-
