You must have had your Nexus for a short period of time.. It's a well known issue. A widget is your best option.
to switch screen off use "screen off & lock" app
to power off ur mobile use "quick boot"

The ****ty flex cable is known to fail and sometimes even permanently break.
With CM7, depending on which version you have, you can wake the screen with the trackball and/or volume buttons, and there are widgets in the Play Store which can handle locking the screen.
I can personally recommend this widget. I use it every day and it never fails: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.soulfulz.android.turnoffscreen

Update2:
I managed to swap volume up with power button, but it isnt working example:
It acts as power button. turns off and lock screen but when i press it again it doesnt wake the phone, only does when i press it imediately after locking.

Hey,
It seems we're out of luck if this guy is right:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21652366&postcount=7
so basically it's a hardware issue - volume key presses don't register when the phone is in deep sleep. And if the phone doesn't go to deep sleep, it kills the battery pretty quickly.
Are you on CM (e.g. CM7)? If so then you have this feature "for free" - it's one of the options in the CyanogenMod Settings in the menu. One drawback is that this will not work if you have the music widget enabled on the lock screen.
EDITED: hmm, unless you meant not "awaking" the phone but just fully unlocking it, i.e. going directly e.g. to the main screen. In such case - I have not found such thing in CM7 (to some extent you can overcome this with gestures but that's still equivalent to moving the the slider or whatever in fact). Generally: is the lock screen really needed? Is there a way to get rid of the lock screen altogether?
Thanks for replies.
So it seems that about deep sleep is true. But i have set mix freq to 500 even 800 with no luck.
Yes i was on cm7. It was working just like for 5 secs or so after locking.
Is this tegra specific or LG?
Edit: wakelock app from the market works for me. It prevents phone from deep sleep.

Is it safe to always turn proximal sensor on for activate screen on with tap tap app. May proximal sensor got will short life than it should.
keep your music playing, and set your frequencies to 215mhz - 314mhz.
its what i sued to do, since my power butter was destroyed

it works until phone enters deep sleep, everything is off except power button.
If this deep sleep thing is correct, then there's no way of making the phone unlock without the power button? no matter what application you use for unlocking it? My phone is new and I don't want my physical buttons to wear out =/

The risk is clearly near zero, my phone if one year old and I have no problem.
You have an app to change buttons mapping, it can be useful if your button is dead, but less clear when all are functional. Try to search 'button mapping' in market I don't remember the name.
Hi all,
Have this problem on multiple roms..basically when i go to wake my phone up, it will briefly show the home screen, just a flash, then shows the lock screen. How can i fix this and have it go to the lockscreen when i wake up the phone??
Thanks!

Maybe a bad app that's causing your phone to lag? I only get that once in a blue moon on touchwiz.

Thanks for the tip bit it's still happening =(. Nothing is lagging the phone, so not sure how else to address this.

Hi,
I had a similar issue when i installed apps to modify the lock screen - Lock screen pro and also with Go launchers lock screen. If you have installed any of those, try uninstalling and checking.
Still having this issue, on several roms. Any advice??

If I switch strobe light on while screen is on, it works well. But on screen off, sometimes I get BSODs or the camera light switches off. Could it be an hw problem? I must admit that my phone fell down from my shelf..

Strobe light? How do you even activate such a thing with screen off?
I activate it on screen on, and then i switch screen off

I never had this problem even neither on CM9 (Owain 60-80) nor on Temasek's CM7. When in turn off the screen, the flashing slows down for a second but then goes back to normal
so it's an hw problem, right?
Inviato dal mio Optimus 2X con Tapatalk 2
As far as I can tell, it shouldn't be an HW problem since we both have Temasek's ROM. Also, i don't see how HW connects to how the LED operates.
Every so often my touchscreen will freeze up and become unresponsive, necessitating a press of the power button to lock and unlock the screen again. It happens mostly whilst texting, but has just occurred 5 times whilst tapping out this message!
My c5303 is rooted, as per Doomlord's rooting thread, running on 257......
Anyone having this problem?
This is the problem bro.
This happens to me when the phone is charging but since u r facing this idle u should contact the service centre

It seems the screen isn't freezing totally, it would appear to be the keyboard when texting becomes unresponsive, along with the three onscreen buttons at the bottom....i can often scroll up and down on the screen. Strange.....also I have noticed it tends to be when the phone is flat rather than in my hand? don't know if this is related to problems others have had with the phone being layed flat?
Wiping dalvik cache fixed it for me

Memory tweaks,right?

Im trying to find a launcher or app that allows the screen to turn on with a double tap . Most seem to have just screen off. So when the phone is on the table, a combination of double tap and face unlock would be much better than having to hit the power button whi h is awkward

I believe it needs to be a function in the kernel. In other devices I have had if not present in stock then more often or not enabled via custom kernel.
I agree would be useful, I just would like to check notification, when you unlock with fingerprint you don't see those
