Prevent Camera button Wake up - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I carry my Tilt in my pocket and the Camera button gets continuously pushed keeping the screen on and killing my battery.
Is there a way to Prevent the Camera Button [and maybe all but the OK button] from waking up my Tilt. I tried AEButtons but it only remaps buttons, they still wake-up.
Yes, I have searched all manner of terms, camera button, wake up, sleep.............without results.

I don't think it's the camera button because the camera would not come on unless you have the device on. If you have wake on slide enable, this may be causing you issue along with the camera coming on when the button is push. I noticed a similar issue with my Tilt... the device would be on when I take it out and I disabled wake-up on slide. No more issues. Give that a shot.. maybe it'll help.

I an not saying that the Camera is coming on. The problim is that a very slight push on the camera button will wake up the device and turn the screen on [ie. wake it up from Sleep mode]. The camera button prutrudes out so far that it is very easy to push it while in my pocket.
I need a method to inhibit the the Camera button[and other buttons] from waking up the device.
I have looked through Settings and can not find the 'Wake on Slide' setting, where is it?

I just tested my Tilt and I cannot wake up the device by pressing the camera button... weird.
Anyway, search for Advance Config and it has an option to disable wake-up on slide. Worth a try.

unlocking without using power button? and auto backlight

hi, i was wondering if its possible to turn the screen on(after locking, to unlock) by pressing the volume buttons instead of just the power button? Its really annoying having the power button the only means of turning the screen on, my old renoir worked with my volume buttons(and anything else) same as my dads arena .
Also does anyone know how to change the auto backlight settings? The intervals are terrible, it doesnt drop high or low enough to save battery but the steps are so close you notice the backlight drop just by tilting it away from any light source lol (very sensitive and annoying without really helping battery life!).
Tried searching so I apologize if its already been mentioned but i havent found any mention or solution .
i saw an option of setting the volume button to turn/wake the phone up. i believe it's from the CM7 build..
Yep, turning phone on with volume buttons is definately available on CM7. But I don't think there's that option with any of the MRC roms.
I'm sure that tiny power button will wear out sooner rather than later...it would be good to have another way of waking up the screen.
Yes option is available in CM7, but not still got a few bugs

[Q] Long Press Trackbal -> Lock Phone?

First off: I tried searching. It returned dozens and dozens of posts about how to WAKE the phone with the trackball
Like many, I have a nexus one with a broken power button. I'm running Cyanogen so I can easily wake the phone with the trackball. I also have a widget to lock it from the home screen.
I would however really like a way to lock the phone with a hardware button somehow. Long press on trackball or volume buttons would be awesome. I never use the volume buttons anyways so I'd give them up if I had to.
Is there any way to do this? If so how deep would the integration have to be? New kernel? Kernel patch? Root access app?
Thanks, and sorry if this has been posted before. I swear I tried searching
It's a great idea actually. I can't see why Trackball Wake couldn't also be Trackball Sleep. I would love to see this implemented!
Perhaps someone would like to take up the challenge?
Screen off and lock
There is an application called Screen Off and Lock.
You can turn off the screen by long-pressing search button.
- Trackball Wake
- Long-pressing Search button sleep (screen-off)
This way I don't use power button at all.
That's pretty awesome! Thanks
A bit sad to lose the usage of my voice search though. But I'll sacrifice that over the hardware locking method!

How to disable the Home button Press feature to avoid unexpected wake from sleepmode

Hi there,
My Home button press function (mechanical) having some bad contacts and every minutes my phone xiaomi mi5 awakes from sleep mode, lowering my battery life.
Today it s even worse, it closes the app i using for returning to the home screen.
I wish to find a way to completely disable the press home button mechanical function, the fingerprint recon is ok, and the touch home button too.
I hope some of you will find a way to resolve my issue.
Thx.
same problem since last 2 months
if anyone can suggest some solution, it would be really helpful.
flash RR.Enable software keys and disable hardware keys on customization menu on settings
The problem resolved by itself, it must been some moisture that was stuck in it.
About weeks later it s now so fully functional.

Pressure sensitive home button issue

I bought my Note 8 brand new less than three weeks ago and I am noticing a fault with the home button. I don't use the always on display so when I go to use my device the screen is 100% off. I force press the virtual home button and the phone jumps to life....although in a faulty kind of way. The haptic feedback is random and the force required to press the button is random. Sometimes the screen turns on and there is a lag until the vibration feedback. It isn't a consistent button at all when the screen is off and I'm wondering if this is a hardware fault? I'm running the latest update.
Nobody has any home button issues when the screen is off? When using the always on display and the ambient light is low the always on display will be off, so in these situations will hard pressing the home button result in a consistently tactile operation each and every time?
Well, no, the home button behaves exactly as intended, in AOD, in homescreen and in any app, I even assigned it the lock screen behavior when long pressed
In general have never had issues with hard pressing with screen off, often when i fish my phone out my pocket i accidentally hard press and the vibration tells me so with no lag.
the only time there is a lag is when the phone just came out of a cold boot or if it's installing/updating stuff.

Mine works fine for double taps of the home button within the AOD and for long presses when the screen is on. It is when the screen is fully off that the home button becomes temperamental. When it is too dark for the AOD to illuminate, or when the AOD is switched off and I press where the home button should be to wake the device....they're the scenarios when my pressure sensitive home button plays up. It should perform like a mechanical home button and wake the screen whether AOD is on or not, but 3 or 4 times out of 10 it plays up. It will still wake my device but it takes a harder/longer press, the press might not register at all, or the haptoc feedback will lag. The button becomes inconsistent and frustrating to use. So many people use the fingerprint sensor to unlock, the physical power button to wake the device or they're always in a well lit room so can double tap from the AOD that they won't come across this fault even if they have it.
Sunking, I dont think the light levels or anything else for that matter,make your button erratic, take your device to claim warranty

Way to prevent accidental screenshot?

9 out of 10 screenshots I take are by accident when I'm trying to press the power button to turn the screen off. With the volume buttons opposite the power button, it's too easy to press them. Is there a way to change how a screenshot is taken?

That's already on, but the other way I'm talking about is still active.
Hold you phone differently, unless your hands are so monstrous that preventing your fingers from pressing the volume button is impossible.
Thanks for the Apple-grade suggestion like I've got bad reception on my iPhone. lol
Holding the phone as usual in my right hand, it's not typically a problem. But frequently if it's in my left or I do a quick reach with either to turn the screen on and view notifications and turn it back off, I end up with an accidental screenshot. If I could make it require a momentary hold of the buttons before it takes a screenshot, it would do the trick.

You could try installing a Bixby button remapper. Many of them allow you to set different functions to your hardware/mechanical buttons & or set delays of different intervals while keeping the current buttons doing the usual stock actions. If you are rooted you only need to install once. If you are stock UnRooted you need to run adb commands every time you turn off or reboot but this is the only option I can think of that will do what you need done. Bxactions is one app and another is button Mapper. Cheers & hope this helps you out.
