Replace Home Button - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
My Xiaomi mi 5 random turn on screen and sometimes dont respond when it's locked and I push Home button.
So I followed forum guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/guide-how-to-fix-fingerprint-scanner-t3544911 and I disconnect and connect fingerprint scanner and pcb.
This still does not work well when I push button.. Sometimes button work and sometimes not.. screen still random turn on..
So I will replace Home button..
It's possible to replace Home button without take off screen?
Beacause when take off the screen the probability of breaking it is big

I had same problem.

Disable hardware key by editing key layout.
Follow this guide.

Unlocking Touch display..

I've made my Diamond auto lock when my display gets dimmed, with:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable from 0 to 1
This is good, but I wan't to be able to lock my phone instantly.
I know I can press and hold the right phone button to lock it. But it takes about 4 seconds. Is there anyway to change this delay?
Also, is there ANOTHER way to unlock my phone again? So I DON'T have to use the touch screen? Like first pressing the round enter button and then down or left, right after?
my htc touch will not go past 'windows mobile' screen on turn on & will not turn off or do anything else, can you help
To lock the phone I just give the power button a quick press. To unlock without touching the screen just remove the stylus.
...or use this http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php . its a really neat application especially because of the minimum of hardware buttons on the diamond. I have configured it to lock the screen when i double press my "hang up/disconnect" button and switching wi-fi on/off when I longpress one of my volumebuttons...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yeah I know that program.. I've used it before but it kept crashing..
But I'll give it another try.

Lock the phone

I know we can lock the phone by pressing the end button, which turns-off the screen and locks the phone.
The problem i have is,i want to be able to unlock the phone "only" by using touch screen, by dragging the HTC curve-bar on the lock screen. This works but the real problem is you can also unlock by pressing the Menu button twice in succession.
Is there any way to stop the unlocking via Menu button ?
I've messed around with remapping hardkey actions via this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695936
Short answer: no, you will always need some button to initially turn on the screen on before you can swipe it, and by default whatever hardkey is assigned the MENU action will also unlock the phone with a subsequent press. If you want, you could edit your heroc-keypad.kl and remove "WAKE_DROPPED" from the line
key 107 ENDCALL WAKE_DROPPED
That way pressing the end button will lock your screen but won't turn it back on, leaving you with only the menu button to turn on the screen.
the new "fresh 2.3.3" rom has that perk.

Lock Widget

Can anybody recommend an app what puts a lock icon widget on the homescreen? My case don't allow to press power button, and button savior is too confusing for my mother.
similar Q
Howdy, pardners!
I on the other hand wonder, whether there is possibility to disable onscreen lock - my back button is hardly reachable so i am not worried that it will get pressed. Sliding the screen everytime i just what to know the time or what ever is however quite annoying. Any chance to disable only touch screen, no screensaver - just Laucher home screen with clock, calendar..., unlocking with back button or quick some combination of others?
Would be magical !

In regards to the first post: have you looked in nook touch tools? There may be a way to set one of the side buttons as the power button, therefore locking it.
Good luck!
I dont know if anyone has it too but:
Go to button savior, check the box that says android recent task.(just bottom of the first page).
And everytime that i press the n button long, it goes to lockscreen. i dont know why. Also long pressing the home button on the button saviour does the same thing too.
The power button and the "n" button go to different electrical sections than the four hard side buttons
The two buttons go to dedicated input pins, the four buttons are part of a scanning matrix.
Although it might be possible to statically enable the whole matrix so that you could detect a button push without scanning (while asleep)
it seems that they would have not handled the buttons separately if that were the case.
In short, any button can be assigned to power and put the Nook to sleep.
Although I'm not sure if any button would be able to wake it?

[Q] disable long press power button in lockscreen?

Sometimes my phone reboots while I have it in my pocket because I accidentally press the power button for a few seconds and then somehow touch the screen so it reboots.
This happens while the screen is locked! It's still possible to press the power button a few seconds and shutdown/reboot/airplane mode/disable data.
Anyway to disable this feature?
I've found a few other threads, with this one the most promising: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302169. However, I changed the four *.kl files, but no luck.
Have you tried with a custom lockscreen or pin on screen? Maybe it helps instead of digging in the phone system...

How to disable the Home button Press feature to avoid unexpected wake from sleepmode

Hi there,
My Home button press function (mechanical) having some bad contacts and every minutes my phone xiaomi mi5 awakes from sleep mode, lowering my battery life.
Today it s even worse, it closes the app i using for returning to the home screen.
I wish to find a way to completely disable the press home button mechanical function, the fingerprint recon is ok, and the touch home button too.
I hope some of you will find a way to resolve my issue.
Thx.
same problem since last 2 months
if anyone can suggest some solution, it would be really helpful.
flash RR.Enable software keys and disable hardware keys on customization menu on settings
The problem resolved by itself, it must been some moisture that was stuck in it.
About weeks later it s now so fully functional.
