power button

Seems this is common and wanted to just centralize the discussion.
My power button one the right side feels jammed. Has anyone found a way to get the button nice and clicky like it was? I'm starting to fear it will quit working haha

just change another one, mine has been changed since i dropped my phone and broke the power button.and it's universal, no need to use a "incredible 2" one.

You're just gonna have to open the phone up.
When I dropped out my digitizer I noticed that the button has 2 "wings" that come off the side and hold the button onto the frame. I couldn't tell what they were made of but they were flexible which is probably what goes out or dust and pocket lint get under the button.

I blame the lack of volume wake in ics for dinc2.
Mine has always been 'squishy, but with gb i had volume wake, so i never really used the button much.

why can't you ahve volume wake on ics?
when I had my GNEX I was able to MOD that to have volume wake, has anyone tried to do volume wake MOD do you know.

I don't think there is one yet and if there is I haven't seen it at least not for the inc2 running the new ics builds

and if you look at a picture of the power button, those things on the side is what keeps the power button "springy" sometimes dust gets in there and doesnt let the button go back up on one side or the clip breaks. etc

I was always stressing out about my phone's power button one day not working. But that website you told us about was a huge stress reliver. Especially because it has everything that could ever break in there.
You are awsome because of this and also because you server our country. I would join the millitary but sadly I am scrawny
Thanks a lot

It's actually quite easy..
I've done it on every ICS ROM ive used..
did it with GNEX, and with the new ICS leaks
see here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453934
android.policy.jar is the file you edit..

here's something I found at Miui.us a while back. its an app to create an on screen button to turn your screen off. it will at least save some usage of the power button. just move it to the system/app folder and change the permissions. rw-r-r. I'm not sure if it works with ics.

I'm rooted yes, I've rebooted and turning off then on (no luck). I've disabled a few apps but not default lock screen so I tried enabling them to see if that works, which it didn't.
I've downloaded an app for now which turns off my lock screen so I haven't got to mess about with the notification bar to access my phone. I think I might have to restore my nandroid

My apologies ahead of time if this topics been touch on already, but theres a hidden diagnostic mode on the sgs3. You go into the phone app and dial *#0*# and you'll get this cool diagnostic tool to help ensure you device is running normal. I've returned 2 sgs3's due to faulty sub key touch buttons and dead pixels using this and I just thought I'd share.
*update*
Just tried on cm 10 and Aokp and it doesnt work. Must be stock base.

There is a red blue green test where it shows solid colors so you can easily detect them. I hadn't noticed them before hand, so it definitely came in handy.

But I think I figured it out. I freeze a ton of functions I don't use/want running and I believe either "factory test" or "factory mode" is probably the enabler, both of which I have frozen.

Touch option is pretty cool, it fills the screen with all these boxes and you follow them all around your screen with your finger to detect any non responsive areas of your screen. Dead zones you can say. My 1st s3 failed that test.

It shouldn't matter these are all the Test***.apk that are on the stock. I know I launched a few of them manually, didn't know there was a menu for them all. You should be able to add the apk back in from stock.

How to crash phone??

Hi everyone. I want to ask you how can I crash my phone?? I want to make complaints on my Wildfire S, but i have unlocked bootloader and CM 10 roms. My phone was in water but still working. I want to run only a white screen with HTC logo. Someone tell me that good idea is to install stock room then lock bootloader and again install stock rom but remove the battery during installation.

Pulling out the battery when flashing hboot or radio gives good results.
Also smashing the phone against a wall is good as well.
Seriously, what a troll. Just sell your phone if you don't like it. Please someone report this!

AW: How to crash phone??
You have damaged your phone. There is no warranty for phones that took a bath ... so they wouldn't repair it either. But what you wanna do is even worse: brick your device, so they can't see CM10 and that the BL is unlocked. I don't know if this is illegal in your country, but I'm sure that you're a fraud!
@mods: Please close this thread.

Drive a car over it. Or even sit on it. Your weight will crush it to pieces. Then go to HTC. Tell them the phone became pieces automatically. They'll give you a replacement. Happy!

Thanks guys i forget to add that my phone have insurance. For example if someone steal me my phone or if falls into water then i can give back to the service, but during changing room i lost guarantees. So i need to crash my phone and give back to insurance.

[TIP] wake device by focus button [ALL ROMs/firmwares]

First of all this is just a simple tweak and maybe I shouldn't open new topic but I'm sure there's lot of you who want that feature but don't know how to enable it.
So here we go.
First you need root manager or ROM tool box/Root Browser(or Root Explorer )
Open it and go to /system/usr/keylayout
Find file fuji-keypad.kl
Add this line (from picture - line focus)
Restart and enjoy.
If you can't save file then you are not using explorer I suggested.

}
It's easier to unlock device, just tap button and screen is on ; you'll preserve your power button and it's cool
And if you want to get back to stock settings and disable unlock by focus ;
Open that file again and just delete "WAKE_DROPPED"
Save file and restart.

Well it wake your device by focus
O.K, when your phone is locked you have to press power (or vol up/down - if you have that mod) to unlock screen, right?
Well this tweak will enable focus button (low pressure on camera button) to unlock your screen, like power button.
It's easier to press that button and you will save your power button.
Every button or key have xy number of "click", after some time of heavy use it won't work like when device was new.
So guys found a way how to use power buttons to unlock devices, now you have third option
