Anyone know of an app that can make your lock screen awaken, by pressing the volume buttons instead of the power button?
I've tried magic locker- not reliable, 1 out of 10 times it might work.
I'm stock non-rooted.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a AT&T Tilt2 on which suddenly the volume rocker up button stop working as volume button and then brings me to the home screen from within any app!! I am unable to figure out why this would happen - its a stock AT&T ROM with some apps that I installed like - OperaBeta, HDWallS, Resco.
Even when I hold down the call drop button for sometime, the device does not lock! It vibrates but does nothing - just shows me the home screen.
Any idea on why this would happen ? has anyone seen this happen to their cell too ?
Thanks

My volume buttons occasionally acts up too. They suddenly act as up and down keys rather than volume up and down keys. Very rarely though. A soft reset makes it go away each time.
...guess it was having an identity crisis...
I've been having problems with my volume buttons. And soft reseting doesn't solve the problem. The volume buttons work in the lock screen. But when i'm at the home screen they just open and close the volume screen.
I have a tilt 2 with the stock rom.
is there any way to disable volume buttons to wake the phone up when using no screen lock?
I've tried to modify qwery.kl and utms_jordan.kl but no luck.
using latest nordic, it didn't happen on 2.1
thanks.

Is it just me or does that sound like a rather mean-spirited reply? For what it's worth, I've never heard of a Defy that wakes using the volume button - wouldn't mind that functionality, though. Perhaps we could swap?
I only wanted him to know the volume buttons don't wake up the phone with CM7.
Can it be an option somewhere in Froyo?
no, I wasn't trying to be rude.
volume buttons wake the phone only when no screen lock is on.
actually to turn off screen lock I have to use the app called 'no lock'.
in this case pressing the top turn on/off button wakes the phone and no extra swipe nor pin asked.
however the same thing what volume button do but this never happend until I flashed the nordic one.
as I mentioned I was playing with the *.kl files but didn't make any changes.
what I'm trying to do is lock/unlock the phone by the turn on/off button only.
My lock button is shot, and I was wondering if there was a way to give the volume rocker the same functionality for waking up the phone. I do not want to bypass the lock screen, such as with no lock, and I want to use the default lock screen not widget locker. Is this possible? I just want the phone to wake up when I press the volume button.
Side note, anyone else break their power button and replace it or fix it? It doesnt seem like it would be all that difficult, just wondering if anyone else has done that.
anyone have any solutions for this? I'm rooted so if there is any way to actually re-map the volume up key to have the function of the power key I could do that....
Cm7. 1 has an option to use the volume rocker to wake the phone.
Edit.... Decks rom might have the same option, as it's based off CM, but don't quote me on that as I have never used it.
so it seems i can wake the phone with either the home button or the power button. thats all good. the problem is when im using poweramp with its lockscreen enabled. if i wake the phone with the power button, the poweramp lockscreen immediately appears. if i wake the phone with the home button, i get the normal lockscreen and then after a couple seconds, the poweramp lockscreen appears. i cant find any settings anywhere that would possibly treat home button wake differently than power button wake. anyone else notice this or know of a setting somewhere im maybe missing?
For several weeks now my lockscreen does not work. I am set to lock and require a pin after power key press or 2 minutes inactivity.
If it closes from time or a power button pres when I repress the power button it opens at the last screen.
Have searched and don't see anyone else with this problem.
Any thoughts on how to get this back working?
