(req) wake with volume keys - Motorola Droid Bionic

Is it possible to make the screen wake with the volume keys as well as the power button?

Widget locker used to work on my inc 2 using the easy wake setting but its not working consistently with my bionic. I think I found another app with my old phone but I don't remember the name and it murdered my battery. I will let you knows if I find anything else.

Here are my policy files if you are feeling generous

There is an app called "No Lock" in the market that has wake with volume function. It also removes the lock screen. I can confirm that it works on the Bionic

This works without needing an app sitting in the background.
That said, these are odex files. Is there a dump available so I can deodex it to work on?

Probably not. HTC users are keeping me busy and the price tag for a (currently) locked down device is depressing.

system/usr/keylayout
If you edit the keylayout and put WAKE next to volume up and volume down it will work. Just reboot when your done. You have to be rooted and you have to be able to write to the folder.

You didn't really think that would work, did you?

Thanks! As soon as the recovery is released I will try it. I use no lock because I keep it in a holster, and it works hit and miss. I'll let you know if it works.

Did adrynalyne's jar file
Stuck at the "Dual Core" boot screen, followed directions exactly. doesn't even start to load android. I made a nandroid backup, but being bootstrap recovery menu I do not know how to get into the custom recovery if i can not launch it from android. I guess ill end up doing a factory reset if I can't figure it out. Still would love to get the wake on volume keys working without the need for a secondary app running.

adrynalyne - Tell me what I need to do and I will be your guinea pig.
Will going back to stock, root, make a nandroid backup of stock and give the system.img assist. Im a noob but want to get down and dirty.
By the way your kernals brought all the Bolts to the yard. Thanks for your work

Agile Lock Screen - CM7

Guys, saw someone else post this in the Development forum and thought I would post here. Basically the sense 3.0 Lockscreen but I cannot seem to get it to work. I'm guessing it's something within my settings but if one of you gets it working please let me know. Always nice to have options!

I like the ripple lock :-D
I have it working. Click on the app in your app drawer and then click start. Thats it! I think I may buy it that way I can adjust everything. For those who bought it, you can change the icons right?

thats strange...try uninstalling and reisntall it or you can try a restart of your phone. something goofy is acting up. I haven't seen too many complains like that in the reviews so I would try one of those things I mentioned.

Sounds great, I would love to get this to work and I'll continue to play with it.
Interestingly enough, when I disable the Status Bar in the Agile Lock settings everything works as it should. Of course this is only available in the paid version.
This work for anyone else?

Backlight Dying

Lol yeah. They had me do a factory reset when I called, which caused my phone to get stuck at the create accounts screen (some motorola process FCd everytime I hit finish). I had to use Pete's tools to restore my system/app folder and now its good again( except for the no backlight part). I probably should unroot it too. For now the only way I can get the backlight to work is if the slider is slid halfway. Waiting on my replacement now.

The needing to use trackball to navigate is due to this being from the SDK ROM as that doesn't have touchscreen support only mouse and keyboard. I wonder if pulling those relevant files from gingerbread would help.

Thanks for your work Joel, but how do you get past the screen after the lockscreen? I clicked on ok and the app drawer button and couldn't get the welcome screen to go away. Any luck?

I've found that in order for it to register "touches" with the trackpad, you need to move your finger a tiny bit while it's pressed down

[MOD][PORT]Search key to ICS recent apps for ICS Passion

This for ICS Passion v12 and V13 RC1. It also works on CM9 b15
This is not my work. It was coded by evilisto in the Nexus S forums. I only modified the key layouts for the Vibrant and the update script.
Here's evilisto's original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21501238
I do not use my capacitive search button especially with the Google search bar persistant on my homescreen so this Mod will remap the search button to the ICS task switcher so you no longer have to long press the home button.
I have tested it with ICS Passion v12. Others have confirmed it works on Passion v13rc1 and CM9 b15.
As usual flash at your own risk.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17980900/Search_to_Recent-1.1_Passion.zip
It is a CWM flashable zip.
All credit for this goes to evilisto so please thank him for his work.

Since I use the search (just not as frequently) is there a way to add the search functionality when one long presses the search button?
I would like very much to use this mod but not completely lose the quick search if possible...

Unfortunately this replaces the search function. Leave things as is and use the home long press.
ICS on the nexus doesn't have a search key anymore. Just back home and resent tasks. This makes our phones the same. Sorry

Awesome! Will try when revert is posted

If you cant wait, just pull your current android policy.jar and flash. push back if it doesnt work.
I was already using from the post you linked. Nice to have a zip with correct keys.
Tested and confirmed working on CM9 build 15

Sweet, thanks. So I haven't flashed any cm9 yet and I'm wondering, does the search button just do nothing by default on cm9 (before flashing this fix) ?

Is it suppose to unlock the screen by pressing the menu key? Mine does, just checking.
Menu unlock is not checked, I didnt try it without wake lock so maybe its cm9 thing.
volume wake MOD only
Here: http://db.tt/66Rt7vEZ
Well... since jokersax provided mirrors to those files I will put down my mirrors tomorow.
Hopefully we wont need then soon.
great work, i do have one thought though, maybe rather change the "settings" button to the apps buttons, since ics doesnt have a settings button by itself, and the search button is quite useful at times.
Volume rocker already has its own settings switch, so sooner or later it will be built in.
Remapping soft keys switch is a good idea for older phone, since new ics guidelines are no physical buttons. But thinking more about, which apk you will assign for a button that is a house drawing? Always the launcher I think. The same for the back and search buttons. Menu is the more "plastic" button.
btw, vol MOD working good for turls v6. Didn't test it to jokers beta.
