I have been looking for this kind of Mod for a While...
Using Power button to wake up Phone is sometimes uncomfortable to reach when u have a grip around Phone..
Moreover too much use of Power button can cause Power button issues... or may give up after a long time or may become hard to press with time..or loose its chrome finish...
I know there are applications like Unlock etc that will skip unlock screen but who wold wanna skip that Cool Sense Lock screen?
This Mod will not UNLOCK your Screen.. Just wakes it up... u will still get the Sense Lock screen...
I created the android.policy.jar file extracted from InsertCoin Rom using this method and it successfully worked on InsertCoin (3.2.0) and probably work for other Sense based roms.. or u can make urs
Although ur Power button can still be used for Locking/Waking up screen...You can download Screen Lock widget from Android Market to lock again too...
That will completely spare your Power button.. No More screen shot clicks..
How to Install:
1) Download android.policy.jar of your Rom..and copy to SDcard
2) Make a backup copy of ur original android.poilcy.jar(system/framework) and note its Permissions(just incase the mod doesnt work for u. atleast u have a backup)
3) Using Rootexplorer copy the downloaded android.policy.jar to (system/framework) overwriting Original
4) CHANGE Permissions to...
Owner-Read-Write
Group-Read
Others-Read
5) Normal Reboot.. First boot might take long.. so wait..
You can upload android.policy.jar of ur Rom.. i will modfiy it for u if u cant do it urself...
I dont know how to make a flashable file from it.. So if someone can do it, please upload it, i will attach here..
Hit Thanks if it was Helpful
Download:
1) 2.3.5 Roms (Tested on InsertCoin..Should work for other Roms)
2) 2.3.4 Roms (thanks to CdDroiD)
3) For ICS 4.0.3 (3.24)
If its not working with ur Rom or you are facing troubles: The only way is to make ur own android.policy.jar (for Modders and ROM Cookers)
Here is the TIP:
1. Extract KeyguardViewMediator.smali from android.policy.jar and Open with Notepad.
2. Scroll down and find ".method private isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing(I)Z".
3. Delete 0x18 and 0x19 lines. Save
4. Repack
detailed instructions given here by from where I got this idea from syc7090 here..
guys please make your own android policy.jar of your Rom and upload with your post so that I can post here...
Nice man thats cool!
EDIT: Heres one for 2.3.4 ROMs dude
this's good!
Thanks man .. works great
I was looking for something like that but to do another function
I'm on InsertCoin 3.2.0 and I wanted the volume button to function like a music controller to forward songs .. etc .
I really want this thing but I can't find a way to do it can u help with that ?
Yeah i agree with that... That was the only function i really like from blackberry ...long press forward or backward the song and short press volume if someone can do that will be awesome... But this wake up mod is awesome too.. thanks man..

Thanx I forget
thank a lot!
works on RCMix 3.5
Perfect my phone...and my life
My goodness this is amazing. I was just thinking something like this and it just show up from me!
100% working on Revolution 3.6.1 ROM.
In my case is that with the soft-gel case on, the power button is a bit difficult to push down. In fact, all the physical buttons become a little harder to press. That's actually good for volume buttons so it won't accidentally get touched then activated that easily. Besides, the volume keys are easier to access (with my left hand), this mod just perfect my life!
Thank you so much!
nice work!
Thanks alot jjdoctor!
Now we only need the volume button to work as a Camera shutter!
How to change permissions?... Tnx
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA App
Details...
3.)Make a backup copy of ur original android.poilcy.jar(system/framework) and note its Permissions(just incase the mod doesnt work for u. atleast u have a backup)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Firstly, I can't view the Permission of the original file because I get interrupted by a warning message: "android.policy.jar permissions cannot be changed because the file system is read-only". So, I thought I just copy a version of the original file and paste it into my SD card so I have backup. Once I open the original file from the SD Card I can view the permission settings. Which lead me to believe that is not the original file I copied from system/framework. I am hesitant to replace the original file with the modified .jar file not knowing for sure I have a proper backup of the original.
Secondly, if I flash a new ROM or update of a ROM will I lose the Volume Button Wakeup Screen mod and have to go through this process again?
I know this is a little long but bare with me please
You are aware that by DEFAULT the Sensation wakes using the volume button? I personally DISABLE it in my ROM as it annoys the hell out of me. It's a one line addition to the build.prop

EddyOS...you seem like a Senior member to me... tell me how by Default sensation has volume wake up?
I would like to know your buildprop line... Coz that never worked for me...
I just add this to the build.prop to remove volume wake:
# Disable volume button wake
ro.config.hwfeature_wakeupkey=0

i've already mention there is some issue with the su binary with Android 2.3.5(EU 1.52) there is still able to use the old binary but you have to do alot of adjustment by hands to make the a2sd+ workable. i cook all these ROMs is by trying to let people no need to use much adjustment by own hands. just flash & run~

the small internal storage is the only big breakdown of this device, so a2sd with dalvik cache enabled is a must have. that's my opinion

That is why i stated as default clean. easy for those who want a normal 2.3.5 or use for cooking. save their trouble to go thru the process of flashing here & there.

Hope u could understand the below method.
Translate by Google translator:
The following are keys to modify the method: the phone ROM, there are files you can customize the keyboard function, by adjusting the phone's keypad function definition file / system / usr / keylayout / supersonic-keypad.kl can easily open the [Home key + menu key + return key + Search key] wake up and swap a key phone functions (qwerty.kl hard qwerty keyboard should be on the definition, because there is no physical qwerty hardware keyboard EVO, so do not change).
RE browser with the kind of file manager into the / system / usr / keylayout / directory, copy the bravo-keypad.kl
Specific modification method [different mobile phone models are not necessarily identical to the modified files, but the principle is the same]:
1, use Notepad to open bravo-keypad.kl file can be modified (Refer to example below)
2, for example, function keys with WAKE_DROPPED, the key to wake phone
3, the corresponding key bit word to swap, swap key functions can be realized, such as key 217 SEARCH key 217 ENDCALL can be changed to the original search key to hang up key
Before the change:
key 102 HOME
key 139 MENU
key 158 BACK
key 217 SEARCH
key 116 POWER WAKE_DROPPED
Changes [to increase [Home key + Menu key + return key + key] wakeup phone search but do not swap key functions]:
key 102 HOME WAKE_DROPPED
key 139 MENU WAKE_DROPPED
key 158 BACK WAKE_DROPPED
key 217 SEARCH WAKE_DROPPED
key 116 POWER WAKE_DROPPED
Editorial changes will modify the files are copied to a good mobile phone coverage / system / usr / keylayout / directory of the supersonic-keypad.kl file, restart the phone to take effect.
supersonic-keypad.kl as chacha-keypad.kl

You have used tweaks to make one of the capacitive buttons take a screenshot on long press. Either remove this or don't keep any button pressed for long while sweeping.

You need to disable to htc Screenshot feature.. Then sweep to wake works properly
Use any file explorer
(you need to give r/w access to system)
Go to /system
And open build.prop
Chk for this line
ro.htc.framework.screencapture = true
Change it to
ro.htc.framework.screencapture = false
Save the file
Exit and reboot
This will resolve the issue

So, I've installed the stock t-mobile rooted limited edition for the 2.35 version, however, it doesn't include the 4-in-1 reboot menu. Maybe I just don't know what the official name for the reboot menu is, but I can't find anything (I search a lot and 99% of the time, find what I'm looking for). Any insight on how to enable the 4-1 reboot menu easily?

Hi guys....
I just bought Z1 and root it so I tried to set that unlock feature on this device as well.
This is extremely easy tweak/tip and we all like it on our Xperia S...
Why do to this:
And even it's on Z1 power button on a great position I like the way to unlock device with hmmm...what's the word...let's say "bottom of my thumb"...
You will preserve your power button if you unlock your device with two buttons, instead of pressing one button all the time.

If you change from [ key 528 FOCUS ] to [ key 528 WAKEUP ] you can only wake the screen. Howerver, by changing [ key 528 FOCUS ] to [ key 528 POWER ], your focus button become the second power button with full functions: lock screen / unlock screen, longpress for shutdown menu, screen capture etc...
Hope that helps.
