Unlocking screen alternatives

I'm running a HDH but to unlock my phone I have to press the power button, and with this new case it is awkward. Is there and mods that I can change this, maybe use vol buttons as well?
BTW I'm running LeeDroid 3.o.1

Running AnyUnLock, but its disabled my patern lock.

App to activate screen?

The power button on my wife's HTC Desire is faulty and becomes unresponsive at times.
When this happens, it means sge cannot get access to the phone unless she either plugs in/unplugs charger, receives a call or removes/reinserts battery (phone will power up automatically when button playing up)
Phone is out of warranty and cannot get repaired right now, so what i want to know is, does anyone know of an app that can be installed that could set other buttons on the phone to activate screen when screen is off?
Any advice would be appreciated

Widgetlocker app does this on unrooted phones
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk

Thank you all for your responses, i have installed widgetlocker (on desire and my own galaxy s).
on the initial start up it does advise to go unto settings to be able to set any hardware key to activate screen. But i cannot find the settings :-\ the menu icon only locks the screen as does the icon in status bar.
Can you please help me find the settings?

Open widgetlocker from your app draw. This will cause the lockscreen to appear but is actually 'tool mode'.
Now press your menu button > settings > buttons and inputs > check Easy Wake. Done.

Cannot believe i didn't try the menu button! D'oh!!! lol
But all sorted, my wife is a happy bunny now, many thanks :-D

[Q] Rooting without volume buttons

Is there any way to root HTC Desire HD with Advanced ACE Hack Kit without using volume buttons?
My volume up button is not working, and I need it to downgrade from 2.3.5, it's required in final step for confirmation, but i can't do that..

The only way is if you use sonething like clockworkmod or rzr recovery

Cant you just keep scrolling down and when you reach the bottom one more push downwards gets you back to the top?

He needs to confirm it with 'vol up'

As gmaster said, there is "yes" [volume up] and "no" [volume down] option, so I can't scroll..

Disable or bypass pattern lock

Hi all just bought another desire off flea bay to repair managed to get it turned on only to be met by the pattern lock set by previous owner before the phone was faulty and now run out of attempts so its locked out now asking for the Google user name (email) & password I have emailed the guy asking if he would help but no reply as yet.
So is there any way of getting past this via fast boot or other can't adb due to debugging not been set in settings, any ideas welcome

hold vol down button and press power on the white screen select clear storage this will factory reset the device no more lock pattern.

yeah i read something bout that before, if u clear storage then gives u a option to factory reset, press volume up for yes and down for no also take out sdcard and sim card first for it to work. dont know why but its worth a shot
