hi friends:
i have an old infuse 4g which has the known power button issue so i remapped the volume_up button as power and power button as volume.
the remapping is working fine and i can see that the volume up button works like power and power button works like volume_up.
but sometimes it still power-off my phone when i touch or press power-button. during this time, i dont see an option to poweroff or reboot but the screen becomes black and i see samsung logo, basically its like somebody pulled the plug.
can somebody explain why is this?
many thanks in advance

I have an HTC FUZE and I dropped it in a puddle of water and now the power button is constantly activated even though I am not touching the button. The button still clicks fine but again, the power button is always active. I cannot manually put my phone to sleep, nor can I turn it off using the power button.
My question is, could I remap the power button (long and short) to another button say the PPT button?
thanks
help anyone?
I had a similar problem with my first Fuze and had to get a refurbished replacement from AT&T. In my case the sticking power button caused constant rebooting of the phone. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but I was unable to do anything to unstick the button.
if the power button is just nt working, you can still put your phone to sleep with third paty softwares like psShutXp. But I don't think it is possible to remap it to a different hardware key afaik.

Hello!
The button of Volume UP of my B68M phine works up to 50%, i.e. :
If I press it once brings to Homescreen and if instead I do a long press the button works fine (the volume goes to max.).
There is no doubt that the button itself is not faulty (it would not go home).
Then I did a remap keys, exchanging the Camera button with Volume UP button.
For the remapping I modified the files .kl in \system\usr\keylayout
In this way the Volume works 100% BUT.....if I press the volume button, the camera is not activated and the phone brings to HomeScreen again.
It seems that the Volume UP button is connected permanently to HomeScreen.
Problem of electrical ground or ROM ?
Can someone help me ?
Thanks in advance

I make CyanogenMod 10 for my device. Official firmware - android 4.1.1. I have serious problems with the processing of pressing the power button and volume buttons.
When I press the power button, the phone starts to behave inappropriately. It appears when i try to unlock: not always the first time gets unlocked, you need a short press that the attempt was successful. And if you say I want to call the power menu, long clamp the power button and the phone will vibrate like crazy and there is a bunch of copies of windows power menu, you press back - phone go to the bootanimation ...
By the way with the volume button a similar situation! As is well known in the CyanogenMod is feature - volume buttons scroll through tracks. So if I clamp rocker to scroll through the forward / backward, flipping loops and skipped about 5-6 tracks!
In what could be the problem?
Surely someone had anything like that.
Sorry for my bad english)
Hello guys,as our LG ON[P690] is a OLD device,now I've started facing some problems with my Power key, Volume DOWN key, and sometimes Back key. All these keys don't respond on my device. Facing too much of problems when it comes to Power key because i cant even lock the device nor could wake up the screen when its locked! Too much of battery gets drained when the screen stays awake! some how i found something for this problem. Wish to share with you all too..
Here is a mod that remaps your search button and makes it a power button and your power button as search button. It works on all Andro vs. i.e GB,ICS,JB,KK. As far as our device is concerned it works on GB,ICS n JB too..
So here is the link to the thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634368&highlight=search+as+power
My power button doesn't have the feedback anymore when pressing down like it does normally. Sometimes I have to press it again to have it actually work.
Has anybody ever replaced the power button? Is there soldering involved?
