Since a few days I flash the rom R.S.K v.6.0. It works well on my phone ,the only think is that now to unlock the screen I can do it with any of the physical button except the button Home...It s very annoying when I put it in my pocket, or even in my hands. Than the ring it s also to sensibel and I just tuch it and the screen is unlook; It s possible to change the sensivity of the ring???
PS I hope peoples who are raeding this will understand mor than last my "english"
You can flash one of the zip file that I posted here
It will disable all buttons to wake up the phone.
OK, thanks for your answer. It s possible to do this and keep only the track pad like usely? Other wise i will try flashing the .zip you tell me. Thanks
Yes... trackpad to wake and unlock is there, only other buttons are disabled.

Just now I received one incoming call,i pressed side volume button,the phone was silenced, I tried again,no matter up volume button or down button,the ring will be silenced.
Is this the normal feature of HTC Touch Pro2? or is the bug of the rom I am using? or there is any setting that can change this behavior?
pls kindly test with your phone, help me with this issue.

I don't think it's a bug, and it's a feature of the tp2. I've used that feature all the time, and it works the same in all the roms I've tried. If you don't want the ring silenced, don't press the side volume button....though I have hit it by mistake when pulling my phone out from time to time....but by this time, you already know you have a call, so no big deal.

thanks for reply,I am relieved.
Aye. normal feature. Its even part of the stock rom. Its easier if you want to silence your phone rather than trying to fumble around on the touch screen if you need to silence it quickly.

Got a new thinking when came back to look at this post,this HTC phone....press volume key to mute incoming call (ringer) is good feature for people,but maybe some people dont like it,they want the phone to ring for a while and let people around him know that he got a good ringtone or he got busy. if the ring stops by accidentally pressing the volume key,he will be pissed off.
Joke is joke,but will be nice if there is option to disable this press-volume-key-to-mute-incoming-call thing.
Can someone please advise me what is "No TPUnlock-WackUp" I downloaded ACEMOD007's ROM last night which is running very well.. there is an extra called "No TPUnlock-WackUp" . I need to know what is this before I install. Can someone please let me know.
Cheers!!
It removes the Track-pad to Unlock function.
Currently, if you press the track pad, the phone will wake. Press it again and the phone unlocks.
Flash that .zip and you are back to power button to wake, slide finger on screen to unlock function.
TP2U/TP2W is waaaaay better, imo.
Anybody else bugged by the fact that they put the on/off button, like, the least reachable place on the phone?
I always have to juggle the phone around in my hand to reach the button, and then I have to juggle it back to reach the unlock ring. I mean, the two things I do most, pressing the on button and then sliding the unlock ring, are placed as far apart as possible. It's oddly cumbersome for such an elegant device. It's just a matter of time until I drop the damn thing. (I guess that way HTC sells more replacement screens... )
The volume buttons are where my thumb is, but I never use them. They are mostly in the way and I press them more by accident than on purpose.
Any idea whether there's a way to switch the on and volume buttons? There's probably no mod that can currently do this, but is this technically possible?
That is where the purpose of volume button to wake comes in handy. And yes, it is possible to do that.
Naah... not with me..
Yes it was a little bit difficult... but now I've become used to it....
there's a a mod for that
volume buttons to wake up the phone
use rc 3.0 or else search its thread
ckpv5 posted a long time ago
ummm... try searching -apm+ volume to wake
Sent from my HTC One V
I am using the volume wake thingie. But it will, you know, change my volume setting if I listen to any audio. Which I do a lot.
Also, you can't lock the phone with it. Which precludes my main use of the button: unlock phone, check clock or notifications, lock phone.
Anyways, I wondered about the technical possibility of just switching the buttons.

Well, then there is public interest in finding a way to mod the keys, right?
Try a two second timer.
I have somewhat large hands, and the placement doesn't bother me. I can reach the button with my index finger and reach the ring with my thumb.
I do really miss having an external camera button.
yeah its not too much of a problem for me. i can hit the power button, and then use the unlock ring, but it requires a bit of stretching. i dont have to move the placement of the phone in my hand though.

I have same problem on my old Desire, now either get the power button fixed from service center or flash some custom rom/mod which enables track pad wake, I am using custom rom and can wake phone using track pad and its working just fine from last 2-3 months.

sounds like a hardware issue. If you have the tools, take the phone apart and make sure the lead is touching the button sensor.....It may have ripped or moved out of place I would guess.....
Is there a way to modify the function of the HOME BUTTON so it doesn't wake the phone?
My Arc S keeps on unlocking inside my pocket and takes a lot of snapshots and drains the battery.
And another thing, what variable to use to open RECENT APPS via a hardware key, for example the camera shutter key.
Thanks in advance.
To prevent screen from turning on in pocket, disable the feature, which turns on screen via home button. Will post instructions later.

Would really much appreciate it, I've been tormented by this accidental unlock in pocket and drains my battery because of the camera.
Thanks in advance.
Oh, and about the other thing, is it possible? What if I substitute the RECENT APPS for the MENU BUTTON, would the 3dot option appear on some apps?

Take a file explorer, that can access root folders (ES File Explorer for example), make sure to go into settings and allow access and write to system folders.
Then go to /system/usr/keylayout, open the file pm8058_keypad.kl with ES File Explorer's default Note Editor (long press, Open As, Text), find this line
Code:
key 102 HOME WAKE_DROPPED
and change it to
Code:
key 102 HOME
So just remove the WAKE_DROPPED part.
Wrote it from my head, might have mistakes. Hopefully not.
EDIT: About the recent apps, this is coded somewhere in framework, I can't help you with that. However, the on-screen buttons do not show Menu button, it will only appear on the right side, if there is an app, which makes use of the Menu button and no other possibilities are available (depends on how the app is built).
Thanks a lot for the help sir.
It did the trick and the HOME BUTTON doesn't wake the phone from sleep.
Really much appreciated help.
Thanks again.
I have another question sir, How can I assign the WAKE function in some other button, let's say the VOLUME DOWN?
I tried replacing the WAKE with WAKE_DROPPED but it didn't work, I tried adding it without removing the WAKE and failed.
So is there a way for this?
Thanks again in advance sir.
This particular problem is the reason I use a lock pattern, not because of the security of my phone, but because of the many photos my pocket takes. However, it would be nice if we could wake the phone using the volume rockers, just not to abuse the power button. I also tried to place WAKE_DROPPED on such buttons with no success, help pretty please
Actually I was looking for a mod to use the proximity sensor to know when it is in the pocket, and not allowing the menu button to wake the handset, but this is way better, thanks pal :highfive:
-----------------------------------
Edit:
I found out that the volume rockers actually work well waking the screen, but, you have to select in security>Screen Lock>None
In such case the volume rockers will work to wake the phone (no need to add anything to the VOLUME DOWN line, as it already says WAKE)
Now the question is how to change it to do it while having slide, pattern or password as screen lock
Yeah, that's what I'm after. Using the Volume Rocker to function like the HOME Button in waking the phone.
Will someone help us out in customizing this. The POWER BUTTON is pretty far for my fingers, and the VOLUME DOWN sits just right under my thumb when holding the phone.
Would really much appreciate it if someone help us out.
Maybe they can include something like this on custom roms, giving the users the option to pick which would they prefer.

It is already on some custom ROMs.
CyanogenMod/FXP based and MIUI ROMs, if I am not mistaken.
But I'm using Zelly Cream 2.5 and it doesn't have that. Hope that it can be ported to this rom.
How do i do it if it's possible? I don't have the know how on such programming/language, will someone help me.
Hi, I have my xperia arc s also with the same problem with you... i actually downloaded root explorer and i can navigate the system data/files but i cannot modify the files mentioned the HOME WAKE_DROPPED... because my unit is not a rooted one...
Please help me to disable the home button by not rooting my phone... Can you make an APK file to disable this function? please please help
