It's great that we have found a way to wake the phone using different buttons but i really still would like trackpad to wake the phone. It does work in amskgh's cyanogen mod port. Is there a way of finding out how or what exactly allows it and porting it over to any rom?
There is a specific file related to that, it's mentioned somewhere here, maybe if you compare it to cyanogen's one..
For some reason, TrackballWake isn't available as a standalone mod. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645481
Ok, dug the zip... Don't have enough time to play with it though (it is for CM).View attachment white-text-trackball-NoSuccessW-WSv01.zip
Hmmmm, can I flash this on a Desire?

As I said, it is for CM. (you don't need it as it is integrated in CM ROM already). On other ROMs you will probably end with endless boot. Needs work.

Ahh, endless boot. Maybe next time it's better for me to wait for a reply, I can confirm that it ends with an endless boot if you have a Desire
Just a thought, the trackpad is used to take a picture when pressed, if you kind find the key reference in the camera app, can that then be translated back to be used to wake the phone. Use the reference in the same bravo-keypad.kl file?
The trackpad sends BUTTON_MOUSE form the kernel, maybe that helps.
Then guess add a line to the bravo-keypad.ll file with that and the correct number, wonder if it the same as the N1.

I'd love to test this but using cyanogen already. Maybe someone else can test?
Tried editing the bravo=keypad.kl with a few different numbers and BUTTON_MOUSE, but no joy as yet.

Must have missed this... where can I read about waking it up using other buttons?
EDIT: ah nvm, found it!

Gutted. Just flashed over to a Froyo rom to try it out but you already did. Damn
Really want trackpad to wake. It's my only gripe with the phone.
Try the 272 keycode, hope it helps.

No joy I'm afraid, tried 230-240 and 270-280 now, think it has to be something else. :-(

Nope, didn't work. With that setup it even ignores power button for both sleep and wake...
I don't think we can achieve this in bravo-keypad.kl...
Is the cyanogen rom so different that we can't compare and find out whhat makes it work? I don't think it is the bravo keypad file in that.
Yep, framework is entirely different on CM....
Yeah, the title says it all. Does anyone have a zip file that wakes and unlocks the phone by pressing the trackpad twice?
Have looked around but there are no mods for Sense.
Thanks
Edit: Now as the source code has been released, is there a new hope?
next time use search..!!?!

I think the problem with this one is that it's kernel specific?
I know it's quite simple to just flash a .zip in order to just wake using the buttons, but wake AND unlock seems to be more difficult...
Chimp
sorry i don´t try it yet..i only read the headline and download it...to test it if i have time

Well, don't try it unless you have the kernel listed there. Just make sure u do a nandroid backup.

There are only versions for MCR 3.1 there.
Somewhere the same for FroYo?
I think the source needs to be released by HTC first so we can integrate the mod into newer kernels. The same applies to overclocking Sense roms. We need the source.
No idea when it will arrive either
Ok, thanks
Sorry, perhaps I misunderstand the question. By using trackpad you mean that optical sensor? I don't understand what is in these linked packages, and why there is a broadcom Wifi module and god knows what included....
To activate the button in the middle, you just need to add /system/usr/keylayout/curcial-oj.kl. Grab it from some ready made ROM.
Why would anyone want wake from optical joypad???
That's annoying! What's wrong with lockscreens. (also, the phone will activate in the pocket!)

No, it won't activate in the pocket. I've been using trackpad wake for about 3 months and I've never woken up the phone unintentionally. The power button, on the other hand, is quite easy to press by accident...

Yes, that's true. The power button is quite exposed.
Sorry to both of you. I meant "Unlock" from trackpad is annoying.
I have nothing against wake.
i dont know if it helps but the CyanogenMod does support this feature.
i got it installed with the opendesire rom
bump, now as the source code has been released, is it possible?
It's May, 2011 now!! is it possible T_T
i want that for LeeDrOiD 3.0.5!!
TrackPad to wake is essential !!(trackpad to wake AND unlock is also welcomed )

Hi there,
So I was looking for an app and done some searches but cant seem to see one out there. I`d thought I would post here as if there isnt one it could be a pet project for someone
Basically the app I am looking does this:
When on my local wifi network the screen lock is a simple pull down. However, when I venture outside it becomes a pattern/pin based lock screen.
So I wondered if there is an app out there that meets these prerequisites?
Thanks for reading!

You could try app like tasker. search on google.it is an app which will perform certain tasks on certain conditions being fulfilled.

Are you on JB ? Flash the Alex V S2W kernel, then you can turn the phone on and off by sweeping the touchbuttons !

Or, as I've already explained to you in your OWN thread.
ButtonSaviour.
I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.
SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

Hello,
I'm currently implementing doubletap2wake and swipe2wake into the stock unsecured kernel.
If someone could help, that would be great. My C/C+ experience = 0%.
So if you guys have tips or source, help is always welcome!

actually, the stock kernel has support for this,only with root, but sadly its a propitiatory app (i dont get it either) called PGM nexus which makes use of it and u can double tap to wake, slide to wake and touch to wake .

And better if possible via kernel SysFS,not an app.A module like sweep2wake(the one from Showp1984) would be better!And not closed source like PGM is..sadly

yes ! exactly ! open source is the way to go besides pgm no longer supports newer kernels for 4.3 (only stock no trace and trace methods are supported ) which i guess some kernel developers dont use. anyways please make it open source if possible

Here is an implementation for Nexus7 (2013)
https://github.com/flar2/flo/tree/ElementalX
Something to work with perhaps?
Cheers,
/J
I'd check @faux123 git. He's done this for a few devices with settings to turn on and off in his app.
Anybody still working on? Got a few thoughts.
A good place to start would be to look up the "gpm hack" and "gpm mouse" in duckduckgo. I think there is a lot of good stuff you'll find. Another thing to get familiar with is parsing the output of /dev/input/event* and the builtin touch screen emulation with android's "input" command line function, "input touchscreen" to be more exact.
Shameless bump, but is someone still interested in this?
