I've damaged the power key accidentally of my HTC touch.. so the on/off key doesn't work anymore. I'd like to know is there anyway to make the other button (eg. camera key) functioning as the power key, at least I can wake up the phone when the phone is off. (this is the most important part...)
PLEASE HELP... and Thanks in advance!!
is that possible?

I have an HTC FUZE and I dropped it in a puddle of water and now the power button is constantly activated even though I am not touching the button. The button still clicks fine but again, the power button is always active. I cannot manually put my phone to sleep, nor can I turn it off using the power button.
My question is, could I remap the power button (long and short) to another button say the PPT button?
thanks
help anyone?
I had a similar problem with my first Fuze and had to get a refurbished replacement from AT&T. In my case the sticking power button caused constant rebooting of the phone. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but I was unable to do anything to unstick the button.
if the power button is just nt working, you can still put your phone to sleep with third paty softwares like psShutXp. But I don't think it is possible to remap it to a different hardware key afaik.

Hey everybody, I've been having some trouble with my Nationite Midnite (Wits A81E).
My hardware buttons (softkeys) for back, menu, and home are broken. I have an app installed that lets me use a touchscreen button for them but the only one that actually works is the home screen button. What I want to try to do is edit the key mappings so that a long press of the functioning volume buttons could be assigned to back and menu. If anyone knows anything about this, please help me! Thanks in advance!

hi friends:
i have an old infuse 4g which has the known power button issue so i remapped the volume_up button as power and power button as volume.
the remapping is working fine and i can see that the volume up button works like power and power button works like volume_up.
but sometimes it still power-off my phone when i touch or press power-button. during this time, i dont see an option to poweroff or reboot but the screen becomes black and i see samsung logo, basically its like somebody pulled the plug.
can somebody explain why is this?
many thanks in advance
yesterday my power button died, but I was able to turn on my N5 somehow. after, I've enabled the double tap to sleep on the statusbar and on the lockscreen and volume buttons now wake the device, but I wasn't able to remap the power button and if I accidentaly press it, I don't know what will happen. So, there's any method to completely disable the power button? I've tried with gravity box but there isn't any option to do this.
someone knows how to disable the power button from the .kl files in system/usr/keylaout?
And then, can I use the volume buttons to turn on the device when it's off or I have to keep it on forever?

The power button on my Z3 is practicaully dead. If the phone turns off it takes a good 10 minutes of trying to get the power button to work. Is there a way i can remap it so i can turn it on from completely off using another button? Or is there some trick I can do with a USB cable to force it to boot? Thanks
