Howdy!
First post and it appears I'm "one of those" that's begging for help.
I flashed a new ROM today - CleanGB - and it works great, with one exception. The home button doesn't work.
I installed the "Button ReMapper" app and still can't get the home button to take me home. But I can make the home button do other functions, such as menu.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Reflash it.. or flash an alternative kernel I've had this issue before and usually reflashing will fix it.

Check your launcher settings. sometimes they have options to map your soft keys.

You might need to get it replaced, or try a factory reset, that's weird
We're comin from a pure power source.
Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knew how to change what the buttons do. For instance, I want to be able to customize what happens if I double press the home key, or hold the back key, or double press the lock key. I was thinking that there would be an app for this but I couldn't find one. The app i was looking for should be similar to the "activator" Cydia app for iOS (iCrap). Does this exist? Or is there another way I can change what they do?
Thanks in advance.

There should be something like that in cm7 (had custom button actions on my mytouch slide before on cm7). But cm7 isn't so good for this phone yet

Hey everyone! I've been looking on how to change my hardware keys. As in I would like to get rid of my navigation bar, which I know how to, and make my power button the home key. Or maybe something like one press goes home and then maybe a double tap would shut the screen off. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

The easiest way is probably to use a Custom rom which supports hardware key remapping like this one:

You also can use Zip Themer. like here:

Now I seen the key mapping feature in du. However I can't make the lock button go to home.

Looking for some help to change my power button to wake my phone and use all the other shortcuts in the power button menu. The power button still works but I don't have a physical button . I removed it from my phone due to the button sticking and random resets. I'm running Project X 3.9 .

Check the quickpanel settings. I don't think there is a power setting. Rom Toolbox may be what you need for getting to the power on/off. As for the pother options, if they can't be added through the AIO, then you might want to try an AOSP ROM. There is a tutorial on how to add things to the power section.

Install this app. It will allow you to choose settings for the phone to turn on off, eg taking it out of your pocket, putting it down face down, etc. The E4GT power button is a known issue and the reason I got rid of mine. I didn't have this app at the time though. Hopefully it helps you.

I found this app that switches the volume rocker buttons to wake your phone and and gives you a shortcut to turn your screen off , reboot. I'm using the search softkey to power off screen.

This is the perfect app for the power button fix. It should be a sticky

It looks like you got a fix. But let me just add that you should also use nomoarhpowah. Which I highly recommend. Because your button may break completely one day and you want to be ready.

I will give that a try thanks for sharing
