Hello,
A while back I remaped the power button (the one u have to hold down) to be used with as a software button(I used kaiser tweak tool). Now I want to be able to shut down but there is no way to do it.
Can someone help.

I was wondering if there was a way to re-map the power button to the OK button so when i want to turn on my x1 screen instead of pressing the power button i press the Ok button or maybe another button?
would this be possible? thanks,
Not sure about the re-mapping, but there's a setting under settings>system>key lock that lets you wake up the device by pressing any hardware key.
I need this too!
Have you tried with one of the several button/key mapping tools available?
Did you tried long pressing end call button? Mine locks screen...
Cheers!
Edit: Try AE Button Plus to map your keys.
My kaisers power button has split in half on me, Im wondering if i can change the PTT button to be the power button thru maybe a registry change or possibly another alternative. As u kno the power button blacks the screen and locks it so u cant push buttons, and i really dont want to dial in my pocket. Can someone please help me???? I dont want to throw away a prefectly good phone bcuz of a poorly made button. Thank you guys
well i took my phone apart and swapped the camera buton for the power button, but who knows how long this one will last. Does anyone know of any reg hacks, or software that will lock the phone on a button press maybe PTT button?
Very good that you have the technical ability to do what you did
In order to not use the power button so much I advise you to install a lock utility like S2U2 for example (I suggest it because I use it and it has a very nice interface). There are also smaller and lighter apps around. Just have a look.
In addition to that you have to change the key lock settings of the phone to "lock keys if phone is locked". This will enable you to wake the phone up with any key on the phone. In order to not activate any functions of the phone with this setting you have to set the timeout of S2U2 on wakeup to 0. This way S2U2 kicks in before any of the key functions come in.
By doing these things I am able to have a phone that does not dial in my pocket and I do not use the power button to wake it up. I use the wheel.
I hope this helps.
Hi, quick question....does anyone know of an alternate power on option for the xperia? my power button is broken. I can press it but it refuses to power on...I dont really wanna open it, but I will. just seeing if there is another option before i do.
I'm trying to remap my End Call button so I can use it to "Go Home", and End Calls. I don't want that button to put my phone to sleep, just the side power button. I want to also free up my IE button for use with anything else I might want it bound too.
In my ventures to do so, I've noticed that both the End Call button and Power button are mapped to the same keymap. I had thought I had changed the Power button but when I tried to end a call, the red button just puts the phone to sleep, which is exactly what I wanted my side power button to do while I'm on a call.
Is this a bug, or a "feature" in the kernel?
im pretty sure its part of the kernel, it has been there since the donut days (the old keymap was crazy volume up was the menu button, volume down was back)
it is partly due to the fact that the vogue has very few buttons, the kaiser was a device that just worked with our kernels at first.
i think even changing the buttons in atools will not change the kernel key stacks like your asking for
although l1q1d being the creator of Atools would know a lot better than I would
I've been looking at the querty.kl file, trying to understand the keymaps, and what they're associated too... Anyway of running a program that captures key presses and prints out the associated keymap for that key press?
Hey! Post from the grave!
Did you have any luck ??
I was also hoping someone knew how to go about this.
I know there are ways to remap keys, but I'm stuck in a browser, and all I can do it put my kaiser to sleep.
I even tried atools keyboard remapper to no avail (awesome tool btw).
It's no fun when you can't exit applications d:
I don't mean to double post, was just hoping someone could answer this.
Krazy-Killa did you have any luck?
Hello,
I've a problem with power button, it is damaged, and turn it on is very difficult so I've thought that the best way to do it is remapping vol- button to behave as power button and I've already found how to do it.
Could this fix work???
Is there another way to turn it on without power button???
Thanks for help
