Answer calls with Scroll Wheel

Hello TC users,
Finally needed to replace my S100 and got the TC,
But the reason for this post, is because twice already answer a call by pressing the middle buttom of the wheel while taking TC from jeans, is there any way to only answer calls with the green?
I really want to make sure who i'm answering the call.
Thanks in advance,
In Personal tabs/Buttons:
Assign a program or function to a hardware button!
hey thanks,
what you actually mean, i couldn't find any button assignment to the scroll wheel or D-pad ......
Thanks....

You can avoid this by either activating the screen lock or turning off the screen by pressing the power button once, whichever is convenient for you. I used both.

an "Auto-Speaker-Answer" feature.. ?

Hi all.
I'm looking for a setting/application,
that when I get a call, I can set a button that answers in Speaker-Mode automatically.
I don't want to replace the Normal Answer function (The Green button).
Anything will help!
Thanks alot.

Thanks but that's not what i meant to.
I don't want it to Auto-Answer without me pressing any button.
I want to press a button to answer (like i click on the green one to answer)
but when i click it, it will answer in Speaker-Mode.
SpeakerPhone could be UR solution.

I don't own Touch Cruise, but am considering upgrading my Artemis. Does Cruise not function the same as Artemis where when you answer the phone using the green button if you hold the button a bit it goes into speaker mode? (reverse to go back to private conversation mode)

apparently yes!
I didn't know that before, and I just tried and it did...
if you hold the green button it goes to speaker mode and reverse...
Great, thank you! I did not know that either. A very good function.

Any alternate way to "wake" the phone from standby?

Hi all,
Is there a tweak or something that allows for other ways to wake the phone from standby?
At the moment i have found that removing the stylus or opening the keyboard is the only way to wake the phone, to me this is kind of a odd behavior.
What if i want to make a one handed phone call, the above methods for bringing the device back to life is uncomfortable at best.
The mode i describe as standby is keys locked and screen powered down, in a perfect world i would like to press home and have the screen power up "dimmed" so that i can see where the unlock buttons are and go from there.
Is there a solution to this?
Im new to phones of this sort so if there is a generic solution i am not aware of it
Since nothing of relevance came up during my search im guessing that i am the only one who sees this as a problem?
Press the power button
ohh
Thank you
that was really funny but it's okay..
I press my bluetooth hands-free button for that.
OK with bluetooth hands-free button but starts voice dialer too.

Could you please be more specific for the newbies here; i.e. from what height should you drop it, what surface is more effective (concrete, damp grass, wood chips?), should you let it just drop from your hand or actually throw it, etc
Thanks.
to be certain of dropping it properly you should do it from at least a 5th floor window, tho 8th is reccomended.
i believe the best place to try to wake the phone from standby would be the empire state building. always works like a charm when i throw my phones, laptops and tv`s to wake up (others)
I dropped my phone from the 8th floor, but now it "crashed"
Interesting to see that you found a thread that has been dead for 6 weeks just to make fun of the issue i had.
My bet is that you searched yourself to this thread since you had the same "problem" as i did
all joking aside he actually had a good question. we all know the power button wakes up the phone, however i would like to know if there is a way to have the center d-pad button wake the phone up instead of or in addition to the power button.

I would like this or just a simple tap on the screen should wake it. I think there should also be a "screen lock" when it sleeps like the Iphone
i found then when your on a call and the screen turns off, you can wake it back up by press down on the scroll wheel.

I was thinking of mapping it to PTT, but center d-pad button would be even better and intuitive. Is there a way to do this mapping?
not sure, im sure anything is possible here at XDA. if it is possible im sure someone here can figure out how to do it.
Mapping PTT to "wake up" Fuze
Does any one know whether it is possible to map PTT (short press) to wake up fuze from standby. It's not all that convenient to reach the power button with one-hand operation.

[Proj] app to turn screen off

I was wondering if it would be possible to assign a long press of the back button to turn the screen off instead of clicking the power button. I heard that peoples buttons have gone out quickly and I try to avoid hitting the power button to prevent this.

Either lower the screen time-out, or just use the power button.
By the time it breaks you'll be wanting something else anyway.

I agree.
I haven't had any problems with my power button and I use the power button to shut the screen off a lot. Hopefully it stays like that.
search for Lock Screen Widget in the market. Totally free and all it does is just turn the screen off. not as simple as holding the back button but it does the trick nicely
if you're using cm 6 you can download LockEnabler and set it to the long press home action. Only side effect is you have to wait 6 seconds to turn the screen back on
There is an app called no lock. With this app you can unlock the screen with track ball or volume + -
So if you use the lock screen widget to turn the screen off and use no lock to turn it on again, you will never need to push the power button...just for first boot.
HAHAHA!
I had massive problem with my power button, my NEXUS has been serviced twice due to the same issue... so just use Lock Screen Widget to minimize the physical usage of power button.
Power button and mic were well known hardware issues so good luck with it!
Thanks for the suggestions they really helped and I appreciate it. How do I get this deleted?

Doesn't need to be. It will slowly get moved off the first page, second and so on unless people continue posting. Maybe it will help others too.

I am sorry if it is not useful for you anyway my question still valid no need to laugh at me.
if that hurt you, i am sorry.
i believe you cannot reassign button at this moment, unless someone find way to root the device and mod the device to wake up using call button
