Is it possible to use the Home button as a capacitive button?
I mean, I would prefer to just touch it instead of pressing it.

Is there also a way to use the fingerprint sensor without "pushing" it before?

That would be awesome, like HTC 10 did it
AOD for AMOLED

replace your stock AOD with this, and this automatically keeps the fingerprint sensor on without any effects on battery life.

For me this is unuseful. Lags and erroneous pressing.
There's a setting to have it go home immediately, instead of waiting to see if you're long-pressing.
The one problem it does have, though, is that it becomes impossible to take a screenshot.

There's a button to do that. Why do you need software?
Anyway, I'm not sure if this is for power off or screen off, and there currently isn't a definite answer on the thread (or in the OP!)

Thanks. I can understand a software button so you can quicklink and have 1 touch for power off, but can't understand one for locking the device. We already have a dedicated button for that.

Cause I don't want to always press the hard button to lock the device and prefer to do it by sofware.
I tried this application before but some time cannot lock the screen. Thanks anyway!

well in this case install S2U2 and paste a link in the shortcut and then your problem is solved. otherwise install one touch power button and it makes your device sleep right away and at the same time locked
Is there anyway to add click activation to trackball while the phone is locked? Much like the way the "home" button on an iPhone/iPod can be used to activate the screen while locked. Its very useful when taking the phone out of a pocket to check the time/for notifications or just to unlock quickly
Agreed, that would be a bit more convenient than the top low-feedback button.

Damn! Im glad that I am not the only one that was thinking about this. I hate having to press the power button to check time or notifications.
I wish I would be able to know how to make something that works, but even after spending some time around here I still dont know how.
Use "ScreenModeWidget"...enjoy

Thats close, but its not the same function and its not as useful since at the lockscreen if you tap the trackball by accident the screen turns off again This one, doesn't

hey all...i just flashed clean rom 5 and it's working great, however, I cant seem to figure out how to take a screen shot. I've searched the forums and cannot seem to find an answer. Can anyone help? I've tried power and home screen and still nothing...thanks!
How about the palm-swipe?
Lay the side of your hand on the left side of the screen and swipe it all the way to the right side of the screen.
It needs the motions enabled in the Motion control panel, and it's all the way at the bottom of the screen.
Or you could just use the screenshot command that is built into Android ICS and JellyBean.
Simultaneous press the Home button and the Power button to take a screen shot.

Press Home and Power simultaneously, and HOLD until it takes the screenshot (only takes a second or so). This feature is absolutely present in CleanROM. It has also active in every stock build of TouchWIZ that Samsung has put out for our device.

I tried it again and it worked. I must have not been hitting the Home and Power button simultaneously in my previous attempts. Thanks again.:good:

Yeah, like he said you just gotta hold it a sec or two. It's not as responsive as snapping a normal picture thru the camera for instance.

That's awesome!!! I had no idea about that! Thank you.
I'm sure this has been discussed but I don't know what to search for and can't find it. When I unlock my phone, using any method (swipe left, right, up, down, with or without pushing the power button first) the phone opens to my homescreen instead of whatever app I was using. Sometimes it's cool, other times incredibly annoying. Is there a way to turn that off?

Make sure your fingees are dry. Functionality decreases when fingers are wet.
