do you mean that?
Due to the power button issues with the Nexus One I would like to see an app developed for adding a power button widget to limit the amount of abuse our physical power buttons must endure.
With all the great devs here on XDA, I am sure that someone will be able to get this app up and running for all of us Nexus One owners. (Tmo, AT&T, Verizon, etc.)
Launch Market. Search for "reboot control" and there you have it: a widget that lets you reboot, power down, reboot into recovery, wipe handset, reboot into bootloader.
and an app to turn off your screen instead of hitting the power button or waiting for it to go into standby?

Yes, as well as the other common power button controls
Are there any reboot apps that don't require ROOT?

no need for an app.
just click vol-down, trackball and the power button all at the same time and it'll reboot.

Thanks for the tip! I do like a software solution though as well. My question still stands, is there a power button widget that doesn't require rooting my new phone?

I don't think there is. If you can't run reboot in a terminal without root access then I doubt there is an app that can do it.
I would love a widget that would allow you to cut off the screen.
After trackball wakeup trick we only need widget to put phone in sleep and i'll surely forget about power button who is very hard to reach one handed
Anybody?

Settings, system, power menu, and check screenshot.
Long press the power button to access the menu.

If you absolutely can't do all the extra work to long press a button AND tap the screen, holding down power + vol down takes a screenshot too.

This does not work for me. Is there a setting to enable this somewhere? I can't seem to locate it.
Thanks.
Volume down and power works nicely for screenshot.
Thanks for the tip!

What is the technique to get a screencapture?
I know there is a way to get screencaptures with ADB, but I want to do this with a standalone phone.
I've used ROMs that include it in the shutdown/power menu.
I've used ROMs that require combo use of power and volume buttons.
I'm currently using a stock-like ROM and, for the life of me, I've not been able to get the combo to work.
Is it still possible with the M8 without a special MOD or a custom ROM with this baked in?
Thanks.

Thanks for that! I knew about the power+volume down but that's a pain. This is much easier. (And having it included in the APM is even easier, but don't have that quite yet).
There was a version of SultanXDA's rom that had the screen snapshot option when you long-press the power button. However, that version was full of bugs and eventually pulled. In following releases, the option was gone. Why was this? Is there a way to get it back?
You can take a screenshot by pressing vol down + power button for about 1 or 2 secs.
The option you talk about need to be set somewhere in settings, not sure where exactly.

Thanks! I was not able to get the vol down + power button function to work, but I was able to find it in the settings. Settings>Buttons>Power Menu. Works like a charm. You are the man.
