Anyone know of a software that will enable the user to "wake" up from sleep mode by just touching the screen?

wow someone is lazy. haha. whats wrong with touching the power button?
If you could touch the screen and it would awake from sleep mode putting the device in your pocket would suck ass because 1) you'd be draining the battery quicker than it already drains and 2) if you didn't lock your phone you'd be dialing numbers, starting applications, or turning the volume on. Now, wouldn't it be embarrassing that you were in a meeting and the "Eye of the Tiger" started playing because someone is called you?
oh don't deny the fact that you considered putting a Rocky theme song as your ringtone to motivate yourself each day.
lol
BUT if i had s2u2 then i wouldnt have to worry about that. i love slide to unlock but i see no point in having it if i have to press the power button to wake up the phone AND slide to unlock it.
I've been in search of such progam for a while now and i still can't find one. It was great on my HP Jornada 567 how i can do it, but not with the Tilt

you make a valid argument. However, you still have to consider battery drain with the device in your pocket the backlight would always be on. I like s2u2 as well but it tends to slow the device down considerably, therefore, i stopped utilizing the application.
Good luck on your searching and please report back to this thread if you do find the software you are looking for.
I am just plain too lazy to hit the power button. Could someone make a slide-to- unlock that is active with the screen backlight off?

Try settings-system-key lock-do not lock buttons. Then you can wake up yor phone by pressing any button except the d-pad and center button

Awesome, that works great. Even easier then sliding the phone open a little. Thanks!
s2u2
s2u2 can wake device with any button if you set it in options. you can also map some button to activate s2u2, so you don't need to press power button

hey, this is interesting for me.
Do you mean that by S2U2 I could map another button to perform Sleep function? I am looking for to map On/Off button to the button #6. I would to sleep my tytn through that button.
any help?
thanks
fausto
I use S2U2, have it mapped to my PTT+hold button. Then settings->system->key lock, set it to lock buttons if device is locked. I usually wake it now by flipping the scroll wheel, then slide to unlock it.
I only use the power button to actually power off or on.

thanks gwnorth, this is very usefull and interesting and I will use for the moment, but this is not yet exactly what I am looking for. What I wanna do is to assign to the ptt button the same functions now assigned to the on/off button, I am shure that there is a command to launch and perform sleep or resume when a button is pressed.
btw, thanks again for the suggestion, it is very appreciated.
ciao

you should just set all the options you want in s2u2, and then just assign button#6 to s2u2. right now i'm trying to assign long push of end button to s2u2. you can find something about remaping keys here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356322&highlight=remap

thanks anti,
I have just installed PHM Keys and it does about 50% of my need. Now when I push the Ptt button it goes in suspend mode. To resume I can use the On/Off button or if i prefer any other button.
thanks,

Hi guys,
So, as the thread says, i am having a problem with screen positioning, its landscape mode and i want it to go portrait mode, BECAUSE i have a damaged X1, some microchip is damaged, and the only buttons working is the turn on button and the camera button, but everything which goes for the touch is working perfectly.
SO, when i start ANDROID system, i always get it in landscape mode, and as none of my buttons work, i cant just "slide out and slide in" the telephone to change the view, so is there any way to change the default starting view ? maybe to change some kind of code or line in settings ?

Yes , it will be, but i tried to repair it, i repairmans told, that this device is unrepairable... So i either throw it away or manage to use android ... Can anyone help ?
On some of the iPad knockoffs running android, they put only the home button on the device, and put software buttons for back and menu in the top right of the screen. Maybe you can find some way to get that?
ref:

As for the rotate, when I press the menu button on the home screen, it seems to realise that the keypad is in fact closed and rotate the correct way. So if you can get the menu button up there, then press that on the homescreen and it should rotate to the correct orientation.

You can maybe remap the keys like this:
Camera focus = back
Camera = home
Power = menu
But I don't know how to do it.
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
Camera focus is already mapped to back button in "Froyo FRG83 - Android 2.2.1 Beta-Release [06-11-2010] from neopeek", but camera is mapped to turn off.
Also with that configuration, how would you turn off your device or put it into standby?
@tads999 calm down dude. Remember that YOU need help, not us. So don't yell at guys that want to help.

Take out the battery to turn off.
Have a timer that enters standby after some minutes if nobody touch it and listen to all working keys so he can exit standby.
And if I would have his X1 I would be pleased if it could run Android.

i mean, asking to remap the keys for me,
LOL, got a brilliant idea, i will try to remap the key which enters when u slide ur phone out and in, if this will work, i will be able to run android perfectly ;D
I'm not running any extra virtual key apps... What I want to do... is have the physical N button do a BACK on 1 click, and HOME on 2 clicks... Or normal click BACK, and LONG click HOME...
I've looked through some of the settings - can't tell how to set that up (if at all).
Any thoughts?
Why not use the soft keys built in to CM7?
Sometimes the status bar is gone... either because something causes it to hide, or because I hide it.

The best setup so far (imho), is to set the soft keys show up at volume button press.
Since the power button or N button tend to fail sometimes.
By doing that, you can hide soft keys with no fear and just presse volume button to bring they back to the screen, flawless.
@blauson
I hate doing that because if I need to change volume I need to leave the app, go into settings, and change it manually. :/
Somehow my "n" button got turned into a back button. Weird. Would much rather haave it be a menu button. but I dont even know how it changed in the first place! lol

I second on that.
I'm running nightly 131.
No problem to change the volume neither to show up soft keys.
I use the N key to cancel full screen. Its more comfortable to use than the volume keys for me.
Hrm.. that would work... Where do I configure what the N key does?

This is how I've been doing it as well, but sometimes it brings me all the way back to home after showing the status bar. Do you ever experience that? Any tips if so?
Regardless, I like my volume buttons to be... well... volume buttons.
You could use button savior to have a never-hide home only option button located on the very right side by the N button, leaving that slot unused on adw launcher and treat it as a "permanent" home button.

That's precisely why I haven't used the n button - if there is a way to avoid it, that would be fantastic!

The best thing I ever did was install zMooth. Its a gesture bar that lets you draw the buttons. Almost like my old pre.

It has always worked well for me. Have you used the nook screen recalibrate app? Before I ran that I had a really hard time getting the lower part of my screen to recognize my touch. I think there are some sensitivity settings in the zMooth app you can play around with too.

When I use the KK Rom, I can only get the screenshot by using the Power Menu (Long press the power button while the power menu is configured to have a screenshot option). Anyone knows a way or any app I can install to capture a screenshot by long press the "Recent App" Soft key and get a screenshot saved like in the Asus stock ROM?

Thanks for the tip, I installed and tested it, the captured size of the screenshot is not exactly as it is by using the hardware key or the long press Recent Apps softkey.
Any other tips?

Yes, the power and volume key combination works, but for 2 reasons I don't like it.
1) too many presses on keys are no good for the hardware, and
2) the TF701 has both power and volume keys on the upper left hand and it is difficult for me to press both keys at once.
I think the best is still the long press Recent Apps soft button implemented by Asus.

Please elaborate on this more, are you referring to add the screenshot choice to the power on/off hardware button?
Just use the power options screen shot functionality in kk.... It's in settings, developer settings somewhere. You push the power button and one of the options is a soft button to take a screen shot.
Or stop cheating
Hey ppl
Anyone noticed this ugly button?
I press it several times by accident. The only way to deal with is to enable the navigation bar (the button will then be displayed inside of it).
Is there a wax to remove it completely?

I personally love that button I believe this is a Pie feature, it lets you rotate your phone on command instead of it automatically rotating. To turn that off simply make sure Auto Rotate is turned on in the Quick Settings toggles.
yeah but i dont want autorotate at all. i hate it even^^
I don't have this button and I'm actually interested
What do you set on to have it?

Turn off auto rotate, and Pie will show it whenever it detects your phone has rotated.

That tiny little unobtrusive button only appears when you have auto rotate turned off AND you rotate your phone. It should not appear during normal use. And it goes away after a few seconds if you don't press it.

I understand what you're asking. But it's not possible. And again the button goes away after a few seconds.
Root and install something other than One UI. Although saying that, I don't remember seeing this rotate button while running several of the different custom One UI roms, can double check if you want.

Maybe you've figured this out already but from the notification panel of you click on the word "Portrait" under the auto-rotate icon it'll bring to additional settings an be you can turn it off from there
