Annoying power button location - ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers

Hi.
I've got the rog phone 2 button am getting really annoyed by accidently pressing the power button every time I pick the phone up.
The button is exactly in middle.
I pick the phone up from middle as its a good balancing point to stop it from falling.
Anyone else having the same problem?
Any fixes or remap to make you press combination of power and volume to power on/off?
Cheers

Sleep Wake-up with every button

On my Tilt, EVERY BUTTON [except left, right, up, down, and select] will cause it to WAKE-UP from sleep mode.
How can I prevent this???
I would like just the OK button to wake up my device.
Thank you

I've never seen anything that allows this.. It's the four hard buttons (2 phone/win/ok) and power, or just the Power button.
It's in the Key Lock preference under System.
Personally I'd like it if I could do something like hit one of the four hard buttons and another button immediately after or it powers off. If I set it where all the hard buttons will turn it on I find it turned on every time I take it out of my horizontal pouch. But if it was set to some very simple key 'combination' it'd be easy to turn on myself (vs the tiny power button) but wouldn't stay on all the time in my pouch.
That is my point, either No buttons wake-up except the hard to get to power button or all buttons wake-up.
I there a registry hack that will allow the power button and one other button, maybe the OK button to wake the device up??

[Q] HD7 Power Button

Been using HTC phones and we all know the power button is an important hardware.
I was thinking can we RE-ROUTE the power button to other buttons, since hitting just the power button makes me feel pain and seeing it flattened day by day...
for my previous touch pro i use registry to re-route succesfully. i wonder some geniuses here can do the same job.... please anybody
I would also be interested in this if at all possible.
Singularity0821 made a "restart phone app" : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333740
...with right argue you could convince him to add a shut down option...
out of curiosity...why you guys restarting your phone in the first place? Last time i restarted my phone was almost 1.25 months ago. Then recently when the HTC update was pushed out. besides that..i havent really had the need to hit the power button. How often do you guys power cycle your phone and why? issues? habit? Just curious..
lol , yes we are the crazy maniac phone restarter
It's useful when you want to apply reg hacks...
Also power button is crucial to reach all usb profils...
and clearly my hd7 power button is getting weaker too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359132
A restart app is one thing, which makes it a bit easier to not having to use the power button for that.
But I too am "suffering" from that power button issue and honestly.. you use the power button to not only restart the phone but also to wake it up and unlock it.
Now if the power button could be relocated (even if there has to be software for it) this would be really nice before my power button entirely dies!

totally right there. We had enough pain of this!!
Reroute to the volumes button n camera button,or maybe an app that can shake in a specific way to wake the phone.
Registry setting that can re-route the wake phone button?

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.
Sent from my gorgeous White Xperia Z
happened to me once, volume up and power combination worked and turned the device off than never had this problem again.
Go back to sony and change a new one dude :laugh:

Z1 - I can't shut it down - Restarts after even red button

Hi all,
I have a weird problem with my Z1. The power button is broken for a few months and when i press volume up, phone takes this command as if i pressed power button. Or even combination of them. I've used volume up button instead of the power button to wake up my Sony. So I thought the importance of its charging and I have never let it shut down as a result of low battery. Because I did not know how to power on it again.
But,
Today I wanted to shut it down, so i pressed volume up; the menu came after volume rising, I pressed "power off". But guess what? It restarted! I tried this a lot. I even tried the red button but there is nothing. It restarts and restarts and restarts... After pressing red button, it vibrates 3 times and after a second it vibrates one more time and Sony logo comes up...
I've learned that I can open it anytime but than if I want to shut it down, what should I do? I could wait until the battery ends for now but this situation makes me so sick that I want to learn the solution. So, please help me. What can I do with this stubborn?

Power button not working

Hi to all.
I'm new about this phone. I have purchased It only 3 days ago and i have an issue.
When i press the power button for shutdown or restart the phone, the menĂ¹ not appear.
Nothing appen.
For shutdown or restart the phone i have installed the shutdown app from the store .
Anyone have this issue?
Thanks a lot
I've heard that Power button + vol up does the trick
It's a very very annoying feature. A power button that has no correlation to powering off the phone.
To shut down. You have to press and hold the power button and volume up key together and you will get the option to switch off/restart your phone.
Before you ask. Lockdown mode doesn't exist. Very useful feature that isnt on this phone.
They made it like iPhone...it was better on x2 pro like all other Android around untill now .
Thanks a lot ..
Works vert well
