if you use fallout or sweep2wake kernel, u can wake up ds with sweeping the soft keys.

i try that, but the problem is that when i use it i have another error , my home key gets crazy , when i press it, it keeps taking screenshots ..only solution would be to use volume keys as wake button,i think..

Many ROMs have support for wake on volume buttons, I think fallout does, and cm. Have you disabled the sense screenshot function in build.prop, as described in the first post of the thread for amidabuddha's kernel?

[Q] Wake to unlock

I'm wondering if there's a way to make it so other buttons will wake the phone so you see the lock screen. Ideally the home button, but I'd be happy with just the volume rocker
There is an app and it works really well.... I forgot the name though

It's called No Lock
I may use no lock since I can't seem to find a good lock screen that will show email sms and weather. However I meant how can I get the phone to respond to more than just the power button from a black screen...
Thanks anyway
widgetlocker able to show emails and other widgets.
it able to wakeup phone with volume keys "sometimes".

This is actually my biggest gripe about the phone! Only way to wake it is to hit the power button. Lame. Unless someone knows something I don't
If you enable No Lock you can use the volume rocker as well as the power button to wake the phone

Weird. Not for me. Only power button awakens. I'm running Launcher Pro... wonder if that could be it?

[Q][CustomKeyMap] help me! power button broken

can someone make a customkeymap for the powerbutton
replace the 3d button so i can use the 3d button to unlock the screen......
..
my power button is broken please help
thx guys
key mapping wont help you as after deep sleep only power key would wake it. You need to stop from fone going into deep sleep. you may use no lock app on market and then add wake to volumekeys

yeh i have made it by myself XD i found how it works but its not working...
thx
but then drains my battery so very fast
i think cm7 has an option to wake on volume keys from deep sleep. this will save you battery but your 3d would be limited.

Edit the omap.keypad.kl in /system/usr/keylayout from
key 249 3D-MODE
to
key 249 POWER WAKE
I think it should do the trick

no when it is a couple of minutes on lockscreen then the customkeymap dont work anymore
then it should work when its
249 POWER WAKE
or
249 POWER WAKE_DROPPED
Code:
WAKE #Completes the action without waking the screen
WAKE_DROPPED #Wakes the phone to complete the action

I'm afraid that it's not possible to wake up the O3D with any other button than the power button. There is a similar 6-page thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351552
You could also try ButtonRemapper but I doubt it will work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464
But since you can enter CWM and boot your phone, isn't it possible to flash a stock .kdz ROM (in order to remove the root and CWM) and send it to the LG service?
Well i think i am lost here but i can help but it will cost you your stock LG ui just download and install Go ex and go to settings and make the volume and home key the wakeup buttons..
Do you mean the Go Locker instead of the Go Launcher EX? Last time I used the launcher, it didn't have the option to wake up the phones with the volume buttons. Go locker has this option according to the thread I posted above.
open the sucker,
disassemble it...
find the power button ans the strip that connects it to the Motherboard
you will find an L shaped two parallel wires.
Replace them with phone wires...
(most likely those wires broke...)

Need "patch" for ICS/JB to wake phone with volume rocker

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.

[Q] Hardware touch keys with screen off

The power button of my i9023 completely died so I remapped the search button as power button by modifying the key layout file in /system/usr/keylayouts/ but it seems that hardware touch keys are inactive when the screen is off.
Is there a way to enable them? I already tried adding the WAKE flag but it doesn't work.

These keys are not kept on when the screen is off. You'd be better using something such a volume wake (wake phone by pressing vol + or -) instead. Lots of roms have it in their options.

I already have the volume wake but it doesn't work when listening to music so I installed Tap Tap to unlock also with the proximity sensor; this thread was more for curiosity and aesthetic reasons than for real need.
So, from what I understand, that behaviour is hardware related thus impossible to be changed by software.
Hm, I have one question, is something like this:[KERNEL]Slide 2 Wake possible on our device?

I believe it would need to be implemented in the kernel. I don't think anybody took the time to check deep enough to do that for our Nexus.
Kinda wish we had it too.

how can I use the volume key to wake up my note 10.1 ?

Dear all,
I have N8000 with a stock firmware 4.1.2 not rooted and I would like to use the volume keys to wake up the device not to brake the power button
How can I do that ?
Thank you
You can't as far as I know. However, you can install a widget/shortcut for sleep mode on your home screen so you don't have to use the button to turn of the screen.

In using an app called gravity on off, and it puts the device to sleep when you lay it flat on a table or carry it upside down, and wakes the device whenever you move it. I like it for the tablet.

I use also awesome on off to wake the device by motion but I noticed that it consumes battery faster than normal that's why I thought about a MOD or something to wake up the screen by volume keys
Why don't you wake it up by pulling out the s-pen?
