Hi everyone
I have tried to search and the search function is down. Does anyone know whether the HTC logo can be mapped as the home button, or can anyone point to a kernel / ROM that allows this?
Mapping the HTC Logo as the menu button isn't much use to me as it's the home button and back button that are causing me so much grief.

Hiya
Many thanks
Seems pressing the HTC logo is actually just a cheat and it's actually just pressing the bottom edge of the screen and is incredibly annoying so illl not be using that mod.

Hello around,
i wanted to change the volume of the speaker during a call and it didn't work.
What happened? In Standby it was alwyas possible to press the "Volume up/down" button located at the side of the phone and I saw the black "scroll-bar" that changed left/right. That thing doesn't appear anymore.
Anyone with the same problem? Can you help me please?
I've installed some software and made some of the known reg-tweaks, but nothing special...
Thx 4 help!

Let's start with the basics:
What software and reg tweaks? Have you tried a soft reset?
Hi all. I have a small question. When I press the left Soft key (Just under START)in my HTC S730, the screen (LCD) just above the button goes "inward" then when I release the button, it goes out (to normal). Its kind of the same effect if its a touchscreen. My friends HTC S730 does the same thing. Can anyone with an HTC S730 tell me if yours does the same thing. Its clear when you have the background with a black color. I don't know if this is normal or maybe me and my friend bought bad ones. Thanks.
No ONE?
I see that people are reading my post. But no one with an HTC S730 can reply??? Come on guys.
DOES THE SCREEN JUST ABOVE THE "START" BUTTON GOES INWARD WHEN PRESSING THE LEFT SOFT KEY BUTTON????????
Thanks.
had some test right now
if i press the sx softkey normally nothing happens
but if i press it with some power (i.e as when i tapping on the desk to hear the woodden noises or playng a key on an old piano) the display goes inward
but it is a millesimal issue, nothing to be notable if you didn't say me! (i had asked to test to my brother too, without advise he about the screen "game", he cannot see any differences)
is our screen "game" mostly evident?
(maybe it could be a fabbric disguise or an accidental fall?)
Thanks
thanks for the reply. And sorry you did not noticed this until now because of me. But mine is very noticeable. Whenever I press the START soft key button I see the inward effect. Does not need to be a hard press to show. I just wanted to know if this is normal with the device built. Thanks again for the reply.
is there any possible way to be able to touch the screen and return its from the timed out backlight insted of the power button then the actual unlocking....
Not sure about touching screen, but there's an app called NoLock that will make it so there's no lockscreen and hitting the power button unlocks it. Eats battery though.

Is there any way? Probably. Is it a good idea? Probably not. Just having the screen up to your thigh in your pocket would be enough to turn the screen on and thus drain your battery.
Not just drain your battery, but imagine calling people unexpectedly, random texting, somehow enabling options and selecting factory reset . There's a reason why there's a lock/unlock button.
Being a lefty, I wish you could turn the screen on using the volume buttons instead.

I can. Hold them for a second and the screen should turn on when you release them. If it doesn't let me know I'd like to investigate further.

Nope, not working. It turns it on using NoLock but then that just changes the volume too.
Im running Darkys 7 btw.

Holding the volume button does not turn on the screen, you probably touched the power button with you middle finger which holding the volume button with your thumb.
Widget Locker
Try the app WidgetLocker--it's a couple bucks but lets you turn on the screen with the volume buttons if you want (any hardware button). It will also let you customize your lockscreen with widgets and unlock the screen using the soft keys at the bottom if you so desire.
Mentioned this app in previous threads, should really start getting a cut from the developer.

You really should believe people when they say something works. Just because your rom works one way doesn't mean anything about everyone else.
Now if someone would give me a link to the roms which don't unlock due to the volume buttons, I might be able to fix that.
lmao love the music

I am not using a custom ROM. Maybe some custom ROM has that feature added but it definitely does not work on stock AT&T ROM.
Works on stock 2.2 Froyo leak ROM

That's not a stock ROM by any means.
I wish the volume buttons were lower on the case. I have a tendency to squeeze them with my finger when pressing the power button one-handed.

Try holding one of the volume buttons while pressing power. A friend of mine had the same problem and we found this workaround accidentally.
No idea why it worked.

Hi , take a look at this article : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032117
I did it on my SGS3Mini GT-I8190 some time ago just to see if it really works and it does so no problems (don't know about the SGH-T599 US version though)
But bare in mind that TouchWiz will look strange with soft-keys as it is designed to use physical ones instead xD just change launcher
