I have tried to do a Google search and searched XDA for an answer and I can't find it. Maybe I am just putting in the wrong keywords.
I thought I saw where there is a way to have the Tilt wake-up by using any of the front buttons vs the side power button. Can someone please tell me how to do this?
Thanks!

I knew it was something simple! Thank you! Any way to map a single button and have the others locked? Just curious.

I like the "Lock all buttons" mode to prevent the Tilt from being turned on accidently and draining the batteries in my pocket.
But a simple easy way to turn on the Tilt with the buttons locked and not touching the power button, is to slide the screen 1/8 -1/4 inch quickly and let it go back. The unit turns on without the power button even though the buttons are all locked!
Hi:
I am wondering the same thing as the OP. Has anyone found a way to map a different button to "wake" the device up? The power button is just too hard for me to find at times (like when I'm driving).
Any help would really be appreciated.
Thanks!
Sliding the keyboard wakes up the device.
Sliding the keyboard does not wake up my kaiser. There must be some setting somewhere that is causing this behavior for those of you that are experiencing it.

Hi:
Thanks for your reply. I do have the slider unlock activated, but I prefer not to open it each time I want to use phone, I am actually looking for a way to unlock via a key if possible.
Thanks anyway!

Set it to not lock the buttons and any button will unlock it.

Hi Super:
I did see that post earlier. I guess I probably should have explained myself more clearly. I do not want all keys unlocked, since this would lead to buttons getting pressed by accident when in a pocket or purse. What I am actually looking to be able to do, is wake device with ONE key (instead of the power button). Perhaps by remapping another button to perform the action of the power button, or some other change.
For example, on the Treo 750, you just press the end button, then push the action button. The end button wakes the device, the action button unlocks it.
Thanks again!
You can always set the lock on the phone so that once a button is pressed you'll still have to press unlock on the screen.

Hi:
You're right, I think that's what myk meant. I think he was meaning that sliding the keyboard would wake the device.
Yes, if the phone is actually powered down, the only way to turn it on is with the power button.
I had exact same problem. Fidning the power key whilie driving and otherwise is pain too. So I disabled the key lock from above setting that means any hard key will turn the device on, but I also installed S2U2 or slide to unlock, so if the device was turned on by accident in my pocket, it will go off again soon.
should i start a new topic or can i post here
How can you turn the Tilt off without using the power button?

Dear All,
is there anyway we can make the ok button to close the applications instead of minimizing it.
Go to "settings">"system">"task manager">"button" and make your choice.

sorry i was not clear, i mean the hardware button, not the one with the task manager.
I'd like this, too.
If you tap the X on the screen with your finger or stylus, it closes the app. If you press the OK button (much easier), the app keeps running
If you don't have it, AE Button Plus is a must have app. You can assign multi functions to every button. I have OK set to close, Plus double tap and tripple tap options to launch some apps.
I use AE button plus, and like it. But if all you need to do is close an app, you can do it with the phone completely stock just by clicking the end call button.

You could try VJOkButt ,the author used to be very active on these boards, mapped to buton 4. I have not tried this on my Kaiser. It worked well on my Wizard but eventually got replaced by SmartsKey.

I'm sorry, you're right. I had used that a few times before I loaded AE button, and my recollection was that it closed them. I see now that it just brings you back to the home screen. In that case, AE button is a good choice to accomplish what you want. And you can keep the stock functionality of the ok button, and put close on a double-click, or click-hold if you like.
Thanks alot for all your contributions, i will give it a try.
I wrote a MortScript that uses the MouseClick command to click in the upper right-hand corner, and then used AEBPlus to map the OK button to it. I had to map it to one of AE's virtual buttons first and then make the change in the standard Settings | Buttons.

If you already have AEBPlus, you don't have to do all that. It has a "close active application" command built in. You simply map whatever you want to that. I have it mapped to a press-hold of the OK button.

True, but I also use the script for other context-sensitive commands depending on the program (I use the same side OK button for "back" in PIE). Call me crazy.
athanaso77 said:

If you have AEBPlus installed, you simply run it, select the button you want to change (in this case, button 4 is the OK button), click in the box down below the button selection, then in the first drop-down you tell it you want that button handled by AEBPlus, and in the second drop-down you select what type of keypress you want to assign (in this case, single press), and in the third drop-down, you select what you want a single press to do (in this case, "OK/Close", then go back to the second drop down and select "long press", and then back to the thrid drop-down and tell it what you want to do for a long press (in this case, "close active application"). Then just exit AEBPlus.
Thank you both (dscline & panosha) for the info !

Sorry if I'm reposting, I found something similar but nothing really like my problem. I haven't installed any programs withing the last month but when I hold the long press and try to shut down the device, it asks me if i want to do that i press yes then screen goes black. But if i quickly press the power button the screen comes back and it didn't actually shut down just lost service. If you go to com manager and try to enable service again it will search for hours and only way to get it back is to soft reset. Anyone else had this happen? Thanks (I dont want to hard reset I have way too many programs that would take years to find again)
back up the programs using sprite backup and do a hard reset
intsall schaps advanced config, then menu>Key mapping and see what it says for "Long press Power key:"
i did that to mine by accident when i was remapping the buttons and i remapped the long power for something else and i couldnt shut down my device anymore. luckily i was going to update the rom anyways, but from what i remember there is no way to map it back originaly

The second pic that he has with the program linked to the longpress shutdown key, I don't have that file the only things I have close to it is powerexe.exe and poweroffwarning.exe. Do you have the same thing that he does? It would make sense of my phone shutting down if its missing tha program but who knows maybe its something custom it is schaps after all.
Can anyone post this LongPressPowerKey.exe program from their kaiser? Please

Thanks for the help arnoo I really appreciate it, but it doesn't work, program starts loader does the swirl and nothing.
unfortunately, it's normal...
Long Press Power Key is developed by Schap's and need to be integrate in the rom (i think in mscoree.dll). Even if you had LongPressPowerKey.resources.dll
And no cab for the moment...
Thanks lol, now that makes sense why it doesn't work. Do you know if there is anyway to find out what the the longpress shutdown is linked to so i can link it back, i really don't want to flash it.
Poweroff is managed by \windows\PowerOffWarning.exe
And you must have HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\ShowWarningMsg fix to 1
Finally, in schaps advanced config, then menu>Key mapping, "Long press Power key" => keep it blank
hope it will work...
if not, back up with Sprite back up, and try an hard reset

I've searched all over and found programs that will remap the volume up and down keys, but haven't yet found anything about that damned Push To Talk button. Every time I accidentally push it I get something popping up asking me to enable PTT ($9.99/mo on AT&T) and I'm tired of it. Even if I could just kill its functionality without remapping it, that's fine with me. Any ideas?
Ugh, I find it hard to believe nobody's done this. I downloaded a program (AEBPlus or something) and used it do disable every hard button it could find, but the PTT button is still active. Lame.
The HTC touch diamond has no PTT button ...

I posted this earlier in the main HTC M8 forum bug list post and figured it belongs here instead because someone with the ATT version said they don't have that. This is something that I experienced before and after I rooted the Sprint M8.
Basically what happens is that once you enable the setting to long press home for menu under settings and try to use it, it just takes you back to your home screen every time. I was expecting this to be similar to the long press for menu setting the recent apps button had with the EVO 4G LTE.

Same thing here, along with the unlock screen. You swipe up too low it brings up Google search or browser. Highly annoying
Yeah I'm going crazy over this too. I thought maybe something was supposed to pop up in the bubble along with the search icon when you hold the home button.
I'm sure we'll find a way to make a persistent menu button.

Just swipe up without turning on the screen first. It turns on and unlocks the phone. No risk of accidentally going to Google and you save a step.
Neither setting in that section seems to have any effect as far as I can see. The home button always acts like "home" if you press and release, or press and hold, and even if you set "press and hold" to be Google Now, pressing and holding still simply acts like you just took a long time to release and it acts as a "home" button.
And, I haven't been able to figure out at all what the "Home double-click speed" setting even refers to.
I think the double-click speed refers to how quickly you need to double tap the screen while it's off to turn it on, maybe? Not sure why anyone would double-tap then swipe instead of just directly swiping, but whatever.

It sounds like these are settings left over from the M7, which didn't have on-screen buttons and long press home was needed for menu and double tapping the home button was needed for recent apps. Sounds like they forgot to remove the setting when they switched to on screen buttons.

The menu button shows up for me correctly in legacy apps. This is the correct behavior per http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2012/01/say-goodbye-to-menu-button.html?m=1
If ES File Explorer is setting the SDK version to 11 or higher and not providing an action overflow or other on screen way to access the menu then that is a bug with that program.
EDIT: In ES File Explorer, click on the button in the upper right to slide out the "Fast Access" panel. There is a settings button at the bottom of the panel.

You're correct, of course. When I was writing that I had already pressed the button, causing it to move to the upper right when the panel slid out.
Is there a way to enable the Note 5 to simply unlock by holding your fingerprint on the scanner? I don't feel like it's very convenient to have to push the home or power button, then swiped up to unlock then place you r finger on the scanner. Seems a little inconvenient, no? Doesn't the OP2 simply unlock when you place your finger on the scanner? Is there a setting I'm missing? I'm on Verizon so root/any sort of xposed module hack is out of the question.
Even if I can make it so I don't have to swipe the unlock icon up. It would be so much better if I could just press the home button then continue to hold my finger on the button to unlock. Noe of this swipe up garbage.
Do you have a note 5?

This guy doesn't have to swipe up on a padlock icon on the lockscreen. He simply presses the home key and places his finger on the scanner. I have to press the home key, then swipe up, them register the finger print. I swear done phones can do it from screen off to on and unlocked simply by touching the fingerprint scanner. What am I missing?

I don't ever have to swipe. Press Home button once, keep finger on scanner, it unlocks. Easy!

Check out your lock screen settings... May be will give a clue..

I just press the home button and leave my finger on the home button to unlock.
I checked the lock screen settings. Nothing there to indicate this issue. Anyway, I factory reset and now it works like a charm. I appreciate all the people that told me they can already do what I wanted it to do but offered no suggestions on how to resolve the issue.
When you register your fingerprint did you moved your finger up and down and left right so that whole finger print is saved or just lift and place same part on and off?
For optimum way. You need to move a little up and down and left and right so that whole fingers print is saved.

When we can't recreate the issue, it makes offering help (outside of suggesting factory reset) a little difficult. Instead of insulting posters in a passive aggressive manner, you could just say thanks and move on.

Are you using the smart lock feature that disables the fingerprint requirement when connected to a trusted bluetooth source? That's what looks like is happening. When you do that swipe up, what you are doing is causing your phone to require your fingerprint again. That's what that little lock means. You are basically telling your phone "I know you are connected to a trusted bluetooth source, but require my fingerprint anyway."

If the lock is present on the bottom of the screen it means your phone is unlocked. When you swipe from the unlock button you're asking if to require a fingerprint on the next unlock. Your fingerprint lock is not active normally. When it is secured you won't see the lock button

But should it unlock by simply pressing the home button again? Because that didn't work for me. The only way I could get past that lock screen was to swipe up and put my finger print in. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it

I see the confusion.
1-When you see no icon between the camera and the phone icon just put your thumb on the home button to unlock.
2-When you see a padlock icon in the bottom center, between the phone and camera icon simply swipe finger anywhere on the screen to unlock. If you press the padlock and swipe up you're actually looking the phone.
Hope this helps.

Thats correct. The op still has swipe to unlock with no security set up. Op go to settings, lock screen and security, screen type lock. It should be set to fingerprints, but probably isn't. Once that is set, all you have to do is, with screen off, press home button and release but keep you finger on the button till phone unlocks.
When you have that Icon you have set smart lock on. You can simply swipe the screen to unlock. You have to go settings and turn it off if you want to always use fingerprint. Search "trust agents" in your settings. Ps that's quite funny
