Phone won't turn on when I click the power button with this lock. Happens with Ripple Lock too from same developer. Nexus S 4G running CM7. I have to push the volume buttons to turn the phone on.
Any ideas?
Maybe something with cm7. Im running it on stock rom 2.3.5 with netarchy kernal bfs 1.3.8. Everything is working fine for me. Been running it the last 3 days with no problems. Only thing I don't like is that the volume buttons wake the phone.

In ripple lock you need to set to double lock option 2 in the settings. It should fix it.

Hey,
I'm on 2.3.3 stock and seems like my power button will fail soon - so I'm asking you guys - what's the simplest method to make my N1 wake by pressing the trackball?
Is there any app?
Is there other method to do this and remain on stock rom?
Thanks for helping me out!
Any unlock?
Sorry?
I want to wake it to the unlock screen (I'm not using an app for that and neither the pattern feature)
I'm rooted, if you mean that
Any unlock is an app. I used to use it when I was on other ROMs...now I'm back to Enomther's ROM which lets you disable the screen lock so when you hit the volume buttons or trackball the phone wakes up (and it's the only one out of the different ROMs I've tried, including Cyanogen..which doesn't just stop working after 20 minutes).
Every rom I have ever used that has trackball wake it has worked and keeps on working.

umm just install cyan 7 or similar ROMs. they all have trackball wake. i havent touched my power button in a long time cause i dont feel like it failing on me...
I need to remain stock as possible.
So any suggestion in that way?

Didn't you try AnyUnlock from the market? It's free, and I think it works on non-rooted phones.

Anyunlock doesn't do trackball wake on gingerbread, only volume buttons.

No Lock by BoD from Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock&feature=search_result
Google has removed the keypress event for trackball when the screen is off, so there is virtually no way to change unless the underlying framework is rewritten.
So, if you really want TB WAKE, you can:
1. wait for Google to add back to keypress event for TB when screen is off, so the app dev can bring back this function
2. switch to ASOP ROMs, most of them has tweaked the framework for TB Wake
3. fall back to Froyo-based ROMs.
I would recommend you to try CM7, it is not perfect.
Yet, it is stable enough for daily use, and it comes with some handy features.
Wow I just noticed that. I've been using No Lock forever but still used the power button to wake the phone. Using it mainly to avoid the extra swype needed at the lock screen but just tried the track ball. No go. Darn.

Well although the track ball no longer wakes up the phone using No Lock the volume buttons still do, so at least if the power button fails, you can still wake it up with the volume buttons.

really the best option is to use cyan 7. it is basically stock, or AOSP rather, and smooth as butter and better battery life and all. and you get trackball wake. no downsides.

I've heard that cm7 is nit stable and has lots of issues which is why I haven't rooted my nexus yet and have been putting up with volume wake.

How does your power key performs? I mean mine responds only when hard pressed or pressed by the right side part of it.
I asked this because all my LG devices have these pretty hard to press hardware keys in contrast to my SE devices.
Comes on at any sign of a click, can do far left, far right etc. Button itself is perfect.
How old is your phone? Worn out over time a possibility ?
there's a mod that lets you wake via volume buttons if you're into that.

can u tell me what mod. u mean exactly? any instructions?
Use widgetlocker and in use easy-wake mode. It lets you wake up the phone with any hardware button.

Or in case you're using CM or MIUI, theres an option to enable that in the settings menu.

Also in MIUI... just like that, may be because using the same code.
i dont think its possible to even remap keys i have tried and failed...
what happens is that when our phone goes in sleep mode... the softkeys get disabled.

The volumes key still are hard key. As we used it in cwm recovery I think it could be done by mod.

Ok, i was going to post this in the Virtuous Quattro Thread, but i am not yet allowed to. Anyway, just a couple issues.
1. My lockscreen has dissapeared, i have not disabled it or anything. So when i press the unlock buttn, it lights up to the main screen.
2. My Home button doesnt work, which is really annoying
PLEASE HELP xD
you should go to settings > security > screen lock.
If its already at slide just turn it off and back. Should put it on there
Does your soft key vibrate when you touch it? Just wondering if its still responding to touch

Maybe re download Virtuous Quattro RC2 and reflash and see if it persists. Sure it's not a hardware issue with the home button?

That's really odd, I would concur with empirexdude and say reflash. If its software issue that's got to fix it...
Did you figure out the lock screen issue?
