Hi everyone. I'm a proud owner of a htc evo shift and I was wondering if anyone knew of an app that can disable or lock the volume rocker on phones!
Not everytime, but sometimes I go to open the slide out keyboard and I end up accidentally turning the volume down.
So if anyone know of a certain that does this please let me know.
Thanks

HI !
I Have the same issue with a desire...
The only way around i found is to use "volume locker".
This small app locks the volume to a preset you set...
A bit tricky for switching from normal/silent mode but works...

Hey I'd love to work on this but I'm not sure where to start so I'll request it. I'd like to see something like trackball wake for the Nexus but use the volume button on the EVO. Also the menu button unlock so we don't have to swipe. I know Metalhead now has the menu unlock on the market. It doesn't seem to work, but maybe he can tweek it too.
What trackball?
He said he would like to see something LIKE the trackball wake but using the volume keys because we dont have a trackball.

If anyone finds an app or something that will allow the EVO to wake from the 4 front buttons please let me know either on here or PM. Its the only feature keeping me from getting an EVO.
No I'm not as picky as it sounds lol, its a dexterity issue.
i would say you woul want it to be one of the touch buttons on front since you would always hit em by mistakednt
Double tap of the menu would work for me, I'd even prefer it but I assume that the driver and hardware for the screen and for the soft buttons at the bottom of the screen are the same. While we could always leave the screen on and watch for touch input all the time I think it would kill the battery.
But if someone knows of the soft buttons using a separate driver or hardware then we could consider it.
What I was suggesting was to go from off to using it press the volume down key and then menu vs. pressing power then swiping the screen unlock thing. Of course you could do the volume and then swipe too, but the menu button would be a added benefit.
Hi all,
When I am typing on my devices, I like to hear the "clicking" sound from the keyboard and I have it turned on on all of my devices but with my Xoom even though I have the setting turned on and the volume turned up, I can hardly hear the clicks from the keyboard.
Anyone else out here notice this or have this issue?
Please advise,
Thanks in advance...
Yea. Not a big deal though, to me anyway.
I use Thumb Keyboard. Allows you to choose from several sounds. If you use any of them with the volume inadvertently turned up all the way, you'll be backing down the volume in a hurry because it is ridiculously loud.

Im looking to create or find a widget/button to change the volume. My goal is to have one button on my home screen that turns the volume down one notch per click, another for volume up and one for mute. Im planing on mounting my tablet in my car and i would be able to get to the dells side volume buttons. I have launcher pro, desktop visual, tasker as my main apps for customization. Thanks guys in advance

Thanks in advance!
WidgetLocker has the ability
Just tried it, checked the box in settings, but no dice
Uninstalled and got a refund.
Any others?
no lock?
or
Screen Off and Lock?
Thanks, already tried both of them because they worked on my og evo, but no such luck
Coming from the galaxy s2 I do miss the power button on the side, hoping to find a solution still

Actually, I used to have a Nexus One and the power button was broken. To circumvent that, I had to use an app called AnyUnlock. I turned the screen on with the volume rocker and you could also use a widget to turn the screen off (rather than using the power button to turn the screen off). Which I suppose could be useful if you have smaller fingers or something and didn't want to make the reach. Very, very useful app when your power button stops functioning.

I'm sure it uses the same method that the other apps use and it even says in the description on their app page that it only works on Froyo and GB.
Yea seems like all of them don't work with ics urrrrrrrrr

Volume Rocker Wake works on CM9 Alpha 5
I've been using CM9 Alpha 5 for a few hours now and it's great !
The first think I set was the Volume Rocker Wake as the Power Button is not as easy to press when using most cases covering the power button.
To enable it, go to SETTING --> DISPLAY --> VOLUME ROCKER WAKE
it enables waking the phone by pressing the volume rocker EITHER up/down.
There is no way to specify one or the other
However, it works great ! I'm really liking CM9, my only complaint is the missing HTC Camera which was just amazing with the hardware burst (I'm still looking for a way to flash it if that's even possible).
So, apparently, you can no longer set your volume rocker to wake the phone. I inherited a buddies bricked Nexus S (submerged under water and then he tried a reboot.) After testing my skills as a modder, I finally ressurected the phone, but the volume button is in-op. Anyone out there wanna make a patch to fix my issue?????????????? I tried market apps.but they just don't do it for me. PM me if you are up to the task.
Peaces.
Nothing? OK, so does anyone know a good app that will let me do this? I tried one that used the proximity sensor, but it was annoying. I am having trouble finding an app that will let me either use the volume rocker to wake the phone (with no annoying message and go right to the unlock screen) or an app that will let me reconfigure my hard keys.

CM10 rom and many other roms include this. Called volume rocker wake and straight in the options.
judging from the title, perhaps you prefer to keep as stock as possible? if so, there is a rom that has volume rocker wake while keeping minimum mods.
