[Q]Remapping the power button - Touch Pro, Fuze General

i was wondering if there was any way to remap the power button on the fuze to run throttle lock. I want to be able to have throttle lock run when i hit the power button and have the phone go into sleep mode. i tried AEbutton but it does not have the power button. I tried looking in the registries and stuff and could not find anything. i also did a search and could not find anything but i did find an option in the diamond tweak that runs device lock when ur screen goes into sleep mode. So i was wondering if that is possible can we change the standard device lock registry that comes with the phone to run something like organic lock or throttle lock? but i only want throttle lock to work when i press the button because i hate it when i am in a call and my device throttle locks i have to enter the pattern and unlock and then i can access anything like the keypad and stuff and that is just annoying when you are in a call. Thanks

bump i guess its not possible if there haven't been any responses so far.

I'm not sure how it's called in english rom, but in the settings system tab you should have somthing like "key lock" or somthing like that, there you can set optio to not to block keys when device is suspended
Thats what I have tried. It doesnt matter what option I set this to it always does the same thing; I always have to use the power button to wake up the device.
Is nobody else having a problem with this? Let me give a clearer explanation of the problem. I have set "Do not lock buttons" in Settings->KeyLock yet when my device is on standby the only way to wake it up is to press the power button. I would like to be able to press any button to get it awake. How can I do this?
Thanks

Oh well, looks like I am going to have to live with this behaviour

My Polaris does not behave like this. I have set the Key Lock to "Lock Buttons if Device is locked". And now I can wake the Polaris with any buttons as long as it was not locked before going to standby.
I have the same problem, but it is with my AT&T Tilt w/Q-Mobile rom.
If anyone cares at this point, reinstalling the rom fixed this problem for me.
I have no issue to this option. I used to select not to lock button but I turn on my phone by tapping the camera button accidentally when I put back my phone into the belt clip. Therefore I stop choosing this option and lock all button except the power button to turn on my phone.

How to disable volume buttons in locked mode?

When my HTC pro is locked the both volume buttons still work.
Is there a way to disable these 2 buttons when my phone is locked, the should only work if the HTC pro is not locked!
How can I change this?
good question. I would like to know as well...
a friend of mine told me, htat the diamond has got the buttons locked in locked mode, too.
2 of my working partners have both a touch diamond and they both confirmed that the button keys are turned off when the phone is locked.
you guys should check out the sensor lock app, it's free and by a peep on here, it's pretty good
this app is quite cool (sensorlock), but we just want a simple lock of the volume buttons when the device is locked by the default procedure.
sensorlock does not what i want.
I just want the default lock in wm to lock the volume keys.
So if I press the "end call" and hold it down the phone locks, it should also lock the volume keys, the on/off button should NOT be locked!
More function I do not need for locking.
It would be OK if a app does the same with a software/sensor lock function, but important is that it is enabled by long press of end call button.
Sorry no answer to your question but I agree: the fact that the volume buttons are not locked is really annoying!
volume buttons not locked
They are locked on my original Dutch T-Mobile Rom.
(and yes, I've checked that)
On my vodafone rom not, I am now runnin romeos and on this rom there are also not locked.
Note: we are speaking here about the default lock of the OS, NOT the sensorlock! So holding down the "end all button" for approx 2 seconds. The phone now locks itself and display is dimped, now all keys execpt the on/off and volume keys are locked. What I want is that volume keys are also locked.
It is possible to lock the volume keys using apps such as sensorlock, but this lock does not work with the end call button, you must rotate the phone of use the stylus to (un)lock it.
tis true. when locked, volume buttons work. when display is off, they do not
3 Australia Rom also comes with this problem. It would be interesting to know how they fixed it in the T Mobile Dutch rom.

Not really, it does not what I ask
I just want: lock using hold own end key, all keys (including volume) are OFF.
This tool does not do this, if I set is using wm in lock modus the volume keys still work, all other options are not for me...
It is great that people suggest which tools to use for locking but please only suggest a tool which locks does exactly as I ask.
If anyone Finds an answer to this I would love to know as well!
yeah kinda of a big problem. I lock the phone. Put it on vibrate or silent and put it in my pocket. because of the location of the keys, it sometimes increases the volume. Quite annoying since use an mp3player where i go, i don't hear my phone (thats why i prefer to use only vibrate).
Turning the display off is a workaround that helps a bit.. but that button also works when locked (not weird ofcourse)
Nevermind, I've found the best way to get past this is after locking the phone (by holding the end call key) if you press the power key and release it puts it into "Sleep Mode" and turns off the screen. After this the volume keys cannot be used unless you press and release the power button to wake it up.
Seems to cure my problem.
any person can help me how enable volume buttons when device is locked ?

Lock Screen Recommendations

So I'm looking for a Lock Screen program that will fit my needs and so far I've come up very blank...
Here are my needs:
1. Lock the screen when I hit the power button.
2. Prevent the phone from powering off when holding down the End Key when the device is locked.
My device is a Touch Pro 2. The built in Lock screen works great at preventing a power down, but it doesn't lock when I press the power button.
Most of the replacement programs S2U2, PocketShield, TouchLockPro, LockMeLite... they all lock when I hit the power button but they don't prevent powering off when holding down the End Key. S2U2 is supposed to have a setting that will lock this but it doesn't work.
So, any recommendations?
Okay, I found a program (see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649695&highlight=lock) that makes the default lock screen show up whenever the system goes into stand by.

Screen locks when you press the power button?

Is there any way, when using the default windows lock program that comes with the Verizon Wireless Touch Pro2, to make the phone lock when pressing the power button on top?
I'm struggling to find a program that will prevent my phone from powering down when I have it in my belt holster. Most of the replacement programs out there do NOT prevent the phone from turning off by holding down the end key when the screen is locked. The only lock program that I found that can is the default lock program. But that won't automatically lock the phone when I press the power button on top. It will only lock if it tap the 'lock' soft key.
Any suggestions?
Found my solution! A little program that causes the lock to happen whenever the phone goes into standby.

App to Lock Screen, and not always when pressing power button?

Currently I have my Android phone setup to use a numeric pin to lock the device. Unfortunately this means everytime the phone goes to idle (or directly by me pressing the power button) I have to enter the pin to use the phone. There are many instances when I don't want to have to do so, such as while driving when I want to be able to quickly and more safely glance at the phone.
Basically I want to lock the phone on an as needed basis, by simply tapping on an app on the homescreen (or perhaps even a different key combination e.g. volume up + power button). Does such a thing exist?
Power Control Plus works exactly as you described. You can toggle the lockscreen with the press of a widget:

Additionally, I like Unlock w/ WiFi, its automated:

Ummm widget locker
I have been using Tap Tap App to do this.
Screen Off and lock is perfect.
But I think there is still a problem when unlocking ur screen, u still need to press the power button...
No Lock can help on keeping ur screen off but not lock, so that u can press other buttons to trigger ur phone. But it seems that after reboot, the app is not working>.<
thanks for the suggestions! I'll give them all a try.
