I'm on CleanROM and I'm using Xposed w/ GravityBox to do all my modding. I've enabled volume rocker wake and for whatever reason, you can't use the volume keys to wake the device after an extended time. I've always had this issue, even on Jelly Bean. It wouldn't matter if I used GravityBox or if the setting was baked into the ROM. I read somewhere that there was a "timeout" on that feature and that you could only use the volume keys within a minute of the device being used.
If this is the case, how do I get rid of the timeout? If there isn't a timeout, how can I get this working? I can't be the only one having this issue.
Any help is appreciated greatly.

I had the same issues with the volume rocker wake function in Gravitybox and use Xposed module "Vol2Wake" instead...it works perfectly.

It is an Xposed Module. It's just not in the Xposed Repo.
I appreciate it! This seems to have fixed my issues.

I spoke too soon. The timeout still happens. :/
So, any ideas? According to Google, nobody has this issue.
I enabled mine to see what happened. Just doesn't seem very stable to me. Maybe there's a kernel with something that works better.
ElementalX kernel allows slide 2 wake/sleep and double tap to wake. I didn't think it be helpful until I enabled it, and it's pretty nice not having to press the side button.

I use that, but it hurts my battery life too much.
I'm having the same issue. I have xposed and gravity box for both my N5 and N7. Volume rocker to wake works on the N5, but doesn't work on N7. Any more ideas on this?
I've also tried modaco and XUtilities, but no luck.

Yeah, I still never got anything to work.
I have ElementalX and GB on both my N5 and N7 and the volume button wake on the N5 has always worked flawlessly and on the N7 the longer it's asleep the less likely it will work. Personally... I just blew it off and forgot about it for the N7, the power button and volume button are right next to each other anyway.
I sold my N4 this last Thanksgiving but I vaguely remember the volume wake being hit or miss on it also, so maybe it's a cpu issue/incompatibility, the N4 & N7 both use the S4 Pro.
Guys I have the same problem with my new nexus 7 32 gb wi-fi !! tried swcre'd rom, simple aosp, euphoria, (full wipe, also reboot and two wipes ecc..) but this function doesn t work on my tablet. It works only in the arch of 2 seconds with screen off, after 5 seconds or more no .
With twrp recovery, when screen off, the volume rocker wake it's ok, but maybe because there isn't a "deep sleep". Also when there is music play but screen off ,the volumer rocker wake works. I don't know what to say to the attendance, because with screen on it's all ok. There is a solution please ? thank you

I am looking for a rom with Virtual Buttons navigational buttons ( like Nexus 7 ). My phone buttons do not work anymore and need this work around.
I am currently running Jellyzeus with turbo kernel.
I edited framework-res.apk myself to enable it but I did not work. I think it is disable elsewhere in the ROM somehow.
It's called navigation bar, it should be available in FXP CM10 rom. Make sure you flash the boot.img from FXP152 to make it bootable.
Various other JB roms have it.

This ROM is awesome. Its exactly what I was looking for. I like it so much Im thinking about installing it on my nexus 7!
Now if I can just find out how to reassign the wake buttons. Ex. Wake the phone from sleep using any of the four buttons on the front of the phone.
On iPhone there is an app called activator, which you can assign different functions to any button or gesture. I am looking for something like that. Nothing Iev downloaded from Play store works, from what I have read it is more of a ROM feature than anything.
Gesture control might work but I don't know if it has a wake feature

Yep I think its great! There is a paid app on market that let's you wake your phone by shaking it here link https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImNvbS53aWxkcm9pZC53YWtlLnVwLnNjcmVlbiJd it's not free but gives you a 15min trial to see if works with your phone don't know if that's any good
Yeah I already have something like that for my tablet. That is not going to work for me because I walk alot at work and run at the gym. I dont want to have to remember to turn it on and off.
Simply, I just want all buttons to act like the "home" button on the lock screen.
This is really bugging me now. You would think that this is not hard to do and that I am not the first person to want this.
press the Volume (down or up) button to Power ON the device from sleep, instead of pressing the power button on the top of the phone,
this way it will be easier to use the HTC One
Thanks
EDIT: i found the solution, just install TrickDroid it has many features including Volume wake,
here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192324

No it doesnt drain battery and the only bugs are sometimes doesnt work from deep sleep. Depending on your software version, there are some nice kernels out there that offer many wake options. sweep to wake, double tap in the bottom inch of screen to wake, menu wake etc.
Most of the custom roms and kernels for this device include this feature.
You can also install it separately using the Xposed framework and Modaco toolkit for the One. Links to both are in this forum (One Themes and Apps).
Next time, please use the search button that you will find at the top of every page. Google and xda-wide searches for this sort of stuff are not recommended as they will take you to apps for other devices, as you found.
Its really easy just as snachez said, you need to be rooted and just download the xposed framework I think the newest is 2.14 or something install the apk then download the modaco toolkit which has the volume mod you want and other cool stuff and install the apk. then open the Xposed app and go to modules, choose the mods you want, reboot the phone and you are set.

Flash a non-stock ROM.
By flash a non-stock ROM I am assuming you mean a deodexed one? I may later on try to reinstall your mod but beforehand remove the SystemUI.odex (if there actually is one) because I am absolutely sure that's what causes the FC error, or at least that's the way it was on my Galaxy SIII.
No, I meant a ROM which isn't 99.999% stock (the one you are using).
For example TrickDroid 7.5.0 has a perfectly good volume wake solution which doesn't suffer from problems when the device is in deep sleep
Ah okay. I may give Trickdroid a shot sometimes as it seems to be very popular here. Plus ever since the 10.2 update of ARHD the volume to wake has not been working for me.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Its immensely annoying when you're listening to music though. If you just want to change volume, it turn the screen on. ARHD doesn't have a toggle for it in the settings itself, but trickdroid does. I'm not bashing either one, i love them both

Volume Rocker Wake
After searching xda I came across a way to wake pretty much any phone.
Using Xposed Additions module, remap and assign the volume keys to 'power' action with the screen state set to OFF.
This has been especially helpful for when I'm running stock on my LG G2 (CM 11 has this option baked in).

3.5mm Klick Click Button & USB OTG
Since I almost never use 3.5 port, this additional button nicely fits on my Nexus 5.
To control this little device, need to use KlicK. By using Tasker and Secure Settings I got functional second power button. However, I've no idea how to get exact power button, cause in my case I cannot press one to wake display and press again to turn it off.
It possible to use 1, 2, 3 click action and program them to any installed app.
Also, I got a nice small black USB OTG.
Battery draws just a little bit more by 7 hours sleep I spent 4% and usually for the same without it, drawing is about 3.5 hours per 1%.
Unfortunately, I found that in Skype sound is dispersing while this button is connected.
p.s. BTW, would be great to get the same idea for microusb, cause I almost do not use it too.
It would be a lot harder to get the same functionality over the USB port as it is not hard wired for this kind of things.
For extra buttons I'd recommend you Dimple or something similar.
Have a nice day!
The one you got is the cheap version of real one. Probably will end up with bugs and unsupported app.

It's very easy, while you made an action in tasker, you just need make an app via tasker, install it and direct those app for klick.

that's been one of my profiles since the first day
1 click - home (power on)
2 clicks - starts endomondo (i cycle a lot)
3 clicks - starts camera
long click - quick settings
The "available on lock screen" option has a bit of a security issue, if you have a pattern lock and start the camera with the app you're able to view previous pics. Normally they're locked out if you have a pin/pattern lock.
Other than that this thing works great
Just wanted to say was on the Mahdi rom and was getting a google voice to text message so decided to try android L. Klick works much better on L then it did on that rom.
1 - home
2 - camera
long - flashlight
Works well (though the double click you have to time it a bit)
