hey guys, i'm new to android phones, i currently just a htc sensation 4G, i was using a blackberry before this, and i was wondering is there any way that i can lock my phone by pressing the power key and not by going off into blackscreen where it automatically locks it, for blackberry the phone would only lock if i press the lock button, im so use to that, and its pretty annoying to unlock it everytime my phone goes off to black screen itself. please help!! Thanks

Hi,
When my phones running and I press the power button once, Windows gives me the option of turning the phone off, it doesn't go into sleep as it used to, and should. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it? Thanks.
Hello
When my GF screen shuts off for power savings it does not automatically lock. we have the same phones and when my screen shuts off and i wake it up i have to slide the tab to unlock it. Any ideas how to get the slide lock to automatically come on?

All of the sudden today my htc with cm9 stoped turning on with the boot button, the only way of turning it on was taking out then putting in the battery, does anyone else have the same problem? and i know the boot button is working, because it worked in the morning
i think i broke my button somehow, but it was working just fine... and forsome reason my phone knows that the only way to turn on my phone is when i put in the battery... it just turns on byitself i need help :S
sweep to wake all the way, and volwake thing
and is there a way to use the power menu without using the boot button?
new edit: i think i jammed it because, in the bootloader when it askes me to use the power button, it would go by itself, how do you unjam it..? i can still press on it and feel that im pushing it.. but when im on my phone it doesnt randomly turn off so it cant really be jamed...
i dont understand this
Hi guys, hope you can help....
I have a HTC One S that I recently dug out of my fun box (I've had a new phone for some time now) with the intentions of rooting the device and having some fun with it, but I've run into a problem. I appears that the pattern lock I put on the phone is not so easy to remember, its been some time since I've used this phone. I know that I can simply enter into recover mode and do a wipe on the device, but here is where the problem starts. I'm pretty sure I have Fastboot enabled on the phone, and because I can't get into the phone to disable Fastboot it doesn't appear like I can use the hard reset method of [ volume down + power ]. When I try this method Fastboot simply takes me directly into regular boot-up where I'm then stuck with not knowing my pattern lock.
Any way around this so I can hard rest the phone while Fastboot is enabled??
Thanks for the help!
SOLVED
Found the answer just after I posted the question...
With phone turned on, hold [volume down + power button], immediately after the screen powers off release power button and keep holding volume down. This will kick it into bootloader.
So basically it was the same process, but instead of doing while the phone is off, do it while it's on.
Hi guys,
For some reason, all of a sudden, my Nexus 5 is not able to be woken up from the lock screen. This happened randomly. I can still boot into recovery and bootloader by holding down the volume and power, and I can still access my phone, though I have to reboot (by holding down the power button) every time I lock my screen. I'm running OptiPop (F2FS) with Uber Kernel. My warranty is void as I've had the phone for a while, and I would really appreciate if you guys knew a solution to this.
Edit: When I lock my phone, the phone vibrates for a brief second.
Thanks

It could be the "Prevent Accidental Wake-up" feature built into the OptiPop rom. If your phone is in a low light environment, the phone thinks its an accidental wake up and does not turn the display on. I've had this happen to me. Try turning the option off under Settings->Display->Prevent Accidental Wake-up
