hello all,
i tried to change my wake up button to my menu button due to my home and power button is a little hard to press.
its working if i press the power button and quickly press the menu button, the screen lights up.
but if i let the screen turned off by itself, let it wait a few minutes, then i press the menu button, the screen wont turn up.
ive tried using manual alteration of qwerty.kl in /system/usr/keylayout/, by adding menu button with WAKE_DROPPED
and using button remapper app here, but still it is not working.
can anyone tell me which part did i done wrong? fyi im on GingerDX v029, Alfs v09a. thanks
err.. can anyone help me?
anybody to help me?

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.
I have a rooted HTC Hero and up until just yesterday, it will not go to sleep mode when pressing the end/power key. Long pressing the key still brings up the power menu and still takes phone OUT of sleep mode, but now I have to wait for the screen timeout instead of pressing the button again.
Any ideas or comments about this?

Check the app Spare Parts - if it isn't included with the rom, then download it from the market. You can set what happens when you press the end key.

This has happened to me once and I recall someone else on the forum also had that issue. Just turn off the phone by holding the power and volume up together. The power button should work as normal after that.

Seems a software bug. Happens to me sometimes too.

I had that problem today! I pressed power button + volume up and it worked!!!!! Don't worry it will work, just press it for 10 seconds!!!
All of my W8 buttons (except the Menu one) went broken due to the first owner's usage (mine is a secondhand one). The power button is still okay with heavy press, but others are unusable. I've tried using tons of proximity screen wake apps to wake my phone in order to not harm my power button but none of them work (the working ones use a lot of battery juice).
So I'm thinking of remapping my Menu button into a Power button. My using ROM is GingerDX. I've try to edit some in the shakira_keypad.kl in the System/Usr/Key Layout, please check it out
This is what I've changed :
from "Key 139 MENU WAKE_DROPPED" to "Key 139 POWER WAKE"
After a reboot, the MENU button did change its function, I can use it to turn my screen off. But when it's off, I can't use it to turn the screen back on.
So what mistakes did I made?
Please give me some advices
Thank You Very Much.
