Hi. So my powerr button is damaged (broken connector tape) and i was wondering if there is any way to make one of the volume buttons to act as power button (so i can use them to turn on/off the phone not only to wake it).
EDIT: Or even better maybe you know where can i get a replacement so i can solder it myself.

Now app description says that it's to WAKE UP your phone not to turn it on. App screenshot indicates that too - "start volume up on boot up"

Can anyone tell me if this has been added to any of the current builds? I'm dying for a daily use ROM and it's a must for me.

I don't believe there is, although I know that there is a configuration to disable the lock screen so that pressing the power button immediately turns the screen onto what you were doing last.

my power button is borked, so i need to use a different button for my power button too, volume rocker wake is what i prefer too. there are a few lockscreen apps that work, but i hate their lockscreens. luckily, if you go to the phones main settings, security, and disable the screen lock. youll be able to wake your phone with the volume keys. the only thing is, you wont have a lockscreen to go through.

Thanks for the reply. That's good enough for me.

Alright, so I've seen many people asking how to take a screenshot and ending up using an application take a screenshot. Truth is, the Sensation does not require any application to take a screenshot. It has it's own built-in screen capturing feature.
1st method:
All you have to basically do is hold the Power button for a second or so and then press on the Home key. It'll then save a screenshot to your photos folder. That's about it. Have fun taking screenshots of your home screens, etc.
2nd method:

Hi, my volume rocker was playing up so i took of the side strip to see if dirt had amassed and then the battery slid out. Now when i put the battery back in it kind of pushes back out abit like how the micro sd card ejects.
Then when i turned on the phone this screen appeared :s

Hi there, seems that the volume rocker is stuck.
by pressing "Volume down" and Power button together you are getting in the bootloader.
remove the cover again and check the volume racker again.
Hey it didnt work. I pulled the volume down rocker abit out and hit the power button, then it started to load but froze at the t mobile logo screen then shut off (

You probably misunderstood me. What I wanted to say is - that the Volume Down seems to be stuck (always pressed).
look how it looks - youtube.com/watch?v=Wl2XKzDYif
seems that the volume rocker has jammed and is pressing always volume down.
Hi
During screen replacement looks like i'm broke my power button,so there is any way to turn this phone without power button(like Samsung for instance with micro USB jig)?Also where can i find this button any suggestions? Sorry for my bad English

As per the links in the below thread it looks like Aliexpress is the best bet for spare parts.

Ok, you need the actual contact rather than the button that's physically pressed?
Transmitted via Bacon
correct
power button
My actual power button also came off the flex cable soldered to the mainboard when I replaced my broken display. If you want to turn it on just touch a piece of metal to the two solder joints and it will do the same thing as the button was designed to do
OnePlus won't sell me the part. I contacted vifocal.com and they said they do carry the part but it had not been added to their site yet and I should continue to check back. Let me know if you find one.
Hi,
I recently purchased a replacement USB port part for my Nexus 5, as my original one had a bad connection on the port which made charging very tricky.
The new part.

I followed a Youtube guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqCEXEmcj4Y
I did as was instructed, the only thing being an issue was that fitting the ribbon back into this port was a little tricky. (see the circled image below).
Put the phone back together. Powering on I feel the phone vibrate as if its powering on, but there isnt anything on the screen.
I hold the power button down to turn it off, but I dont get any vibration indicating it has force powered off.
Ive opened it all up and checked the work ive done, but still the same issue.
I thought it may be the new part I put in, so I swapped it for the old one.
Im concerned now that the port that i had to fiddle with to connect may of been damaged (although i was very careful). Or is there a more simple explanation where I need to connect it to a computer in an attempt to bring it back to life?
FYI I have just tried the vol keys and i can hear the vol change sounds. I may take the opportunity to back things up now.
Is it possible to do a factory reset without seeing the screen? I have a lock pattern that I obviously cannot see now either.
All help appreciated.
Thanks
