Power button is about to death

Hi, my device's power button is almost dead. I want to wake my phone by using volume rockers.
My phone is not rooted. Is there any application or method to do this?

Looks like a good link, but he's not rooted and this guide is for root access modification.
But I think that rooting would be the best solution to get what the OP is after.

Mine is half death, and hopefully not about to death.
Seriously though, if you're not going to claim warranty to get it fixed (I did) root it and get vol wake and sweep to wake/sleep. I've set mine to do both and I don't have to use the power button unless rebooting

ok. here the dumbest question: how can i root it?

Mines in the exact same boat. I couldn't use this phone without vol wake or s2w.

Yeah my power button died 2 months ago. Root and install venom. It's the only Rom with both vol wake and vol sleep.
If somebody knows how I could make all roms have vol sleep that's be great lol.

Some custom ROMS have tweak, which allows you to wake by volume buttons

you'd better root your IS or replace a power butern

you can use Go locker

i tried CPR but its of no use .. its almost dead :silly:

[q] screenshot?

Hi
Other than picking it from the power button, is there another method of taking a screenshot?

No for stock
but maybe u will get another method if use custom rom !

I find that if I hold power + volume down for 1 second, it takes a screenshot? as opposed to selecting it from the power menu it just does it straight away

Screen Brightness

For some reason it is like my phone is stuck with auto brightness on even tho it is off. I had 3 HTC Ones next to each other. My phone was more dim out of all of them.
Any way to edit build.prop or something to fix this?
I also looked for an answer didn't see anything.
I'm on the newest viperRom, stock kernel.
Thanks!

?+1 to this. Power saver has a dim screen option, so while autobrightness may be turned off, it will be dimmer.

Remove hold back to kill apps?

I just flashed ecliptic Rom after using viper and I noticed that whenever I hold back it kills the app. How do I disable this so I can long press back for menu? Thanks!

Look for JMZ Powersaver Disabler in the Play Store

HTC One M7 Black

MoDaCo Toolkit for Xposed is the best option IMO, simply because of the other Mods bundled with it.
