Is there a way to wake screen with other buttons?

As a former HTC Hero user i really miss the option to wake the screen using the bottom hardware buttons.
On the Desire you have to use the power button, but i hate the placement of that button.
Is there a way to use the "menu" or any other bottom hardware button to wake the screen?
BUT i still want to have the lockscreen, so the app which is mentioned in the tricks section on this board isn't cutting it for me since it will deactivate the lockscreen in order to let you use other hardware buttons to wake the screen.
Any other solutions? Isn't there some kind of "hardware button mapper" available like on windows mobile devices?

Just got my Desire today, so I am actually curious about this also.

Yes, but only possible on rooted handsets, no?

Probably :/

damn, don't want to root my desire as i have heard of random bricks.

another question:
is there an app to lock the screen using a widget?
so after i'm done with the current action, i don't want to use the power button to lock the screen, but a widget or a shortcut.
Is there a widget available for that? Or even better a widget to turn of the screen?

I have Lockbot Pro installed and I can wake the screen with any of the buttons at the bottom. Pressing Menu then gives me an 'unlock' bar on the screen which I can press to unlock (or I can swipe the screen in the standard way). Allows you to unlock without pressing the power button at all.

thanks for the hint. the app looks quite nice, but it seems to be very slow.
When waking the screen it takes very long until the lockscreen is shown, and it always shows a different lockscreen?!
also is the an option in the pro version to define a key to lock the screen?
So i.e. i wake the screen using the center navigation pad button, can i define that pressig the button again should turn the screen off again?

screen off and lock app question

hi guys may i ask about the screen off and lock app, i just enabled the delay device locking feature. but after pressing the screen off and lock command (the one with the icon without a hammer) or in the notification screen, it plays the locking animation but after it went to black screen my signal bar (the bar that shows the battery meter, signal meter and time. located in the upper portion of the screen.) will pop up for a second. is this normal?
and when i press the power button the lock animation will not play, how can i set once i press the power button it will use the screen off and lock app.
thanks

I used to use this app, and I'm fairly certain you can't (without some deep code work) make the hardware power key operate a different app...The "reflash" of the screen is what made me go away from it, so I wish I could help ya, so I could help myself

Home Screen Gets Stuck

sometimes when I press the home button and my phone exits the app, I get stuck at the home screen. the screen is non-responsive, as are the on screen buttons. I have to press the power button to lock the phone and then unlock it again. Does anyone know about this and does anyone have any recommendations?

That's happened to me before, too. It's like when you exited the app, it went straight to the screen lock - except the screen show the lock screen, nor does it dim.

Screen locked to all black while on call with headphones on

While on a call with my headphones on, my S9 screen would lock and go black after about 20 sec. of no activity. I was unable to long press the home button (had to guess where it was b/c screen was all black) and no other buttons worked EXCEPT for the shortcut button which opened bixby. My only option to unlock the screen was to press the shortcut button and screen flip back to the phone screen. I have my unlock with home button setup on with hard press, screen timeout at 5 mins., and smart stay active. Anyone else have their S9 screen lock to all black while on a call with their headphones and not be able to wake it?
