I have Button Mapper and want to use "Long press actions with screen off". I tried to change it with WINDOWS SETUP but I get message "I get the message "Permission revoked”". It even says connected when its not connected. USB debugging is turned on.

After several minutes of inactivity, my Tytn II powers off normally. When I want to use it again, I press the power button. This powers on my device, but it is locked. I need to press the left soft-key and press "unlock" before I can start using my device again.
Is there any way to disable this? I want to start using the device immediately after pressing the power button.
I think the power button is difficult to press as it is, so there is little chance it will be accidentally pressed in the pocket. So, if we set the key-lock to "lock all buttons except power button", it should be safe.
MY MISTAKE...
The culprit was the Battery Status plugin. There is an option to devicelock after wake-up that was checked. Maybe I accidentally checked it as I had this plugin before on my Xda2 then prophet and now the TyTn II and never experienced this before... Thot it was a "new feature" on the TyTn...
Hi,
Now i have to ask, because i can't find my self. Is there any app to Touch Pro what would disable all connections when i press power button? When im not using phone, i always press power button so screen goes black and it won't use unnecessary power. It would be very good, if same time all data connections, bluetooth etc. would be disabled.
That would be handy. I'd use it! But until we find it you could do what I do.
Set the long-press button to toggle Airplane Mode. To turn off the phone you hold down the hang-up key to kill the radios and then use the power button to black the screen. To turn on you'd use the power button and then hold down the hangup to turn all the radios back on. It's an extra step and takes an extra 5 seconds but it works.
You can also have the long-press pop up an option menu.
Just a thought.
Problems with power button instant lock when using "trusted devices" feature
Im having an issue with locking my phone's screen. I have the option checked to instantly lock the phone when the power button is pressed. I need it to work this way so the phone is locked as soon as press the power button and put the phone in my pocket.
Well when i enabled the "trusted devices" feature the screen no longer locks instantly when i press the power button. This is causing my phone to come on in my pocket frequently.
I dont get it. The trusted devices feature is simply supposed to bypass my pattern lock when my Pebble Watch is connected. It is not supposed to stop the phone from locking the screen at all.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
I am having the opposite problem, but maybe I don't understand the settings. I have a pattern password on my device, I have a bluetooth usb in my desktop at home and I have it listed as a trusted device in my BT settings on the phone. When I hit the power button the screen locks but when I go to wake the device (sitting right at my computer the whole time) I get the pattern password screen. I thought it was supposed to bypass that if I set my PC as a trusted device. Any ideas?
My HTC One fails to connect to any WiFi, ATT hotspots, home router, etc, unless I select restart, power off then back on the phone.
If I try to log on at home it reports "failed to connect". If I power off then on, it connects automatically. But if I leave the house and return, no connection, but it shows all available networks. I disabled all power saver settings, Avast / Battery Guru.
Any solutions available?

For null ROM users that have the home button remap mod enabled (allowing you to manually turn off the screen with the power button when using 3rd party launchers), there is a documented issue where it can be difficult to wake the gear back up when in an active call.
Pressing the power button usually results in the screen flashing on and turning right back off. Sometimes you need to double tap the button or time the presses just right to get the screen to turn on and stick.
Fortunately, I stumbled upon a solution to this........this assumes you are already using Xposed.
1) Download the "Xposed Additions" module
2) Activate the module and reboot your gear for it to take effect
3) Go into Xposed Additions -> Buttons -> Add new Key and then press the power button at the prompt.
3) Select the power key option that should now appear in the list and add a new condition for "Screen off"
4) Set the "Long press action" for "End Call".
NOTE: Long pressing the power button while in a call does not actually work. BUT you will notice that you can now reliable press the power button (just once) in order to succesfully wake the gear back up from the in-call screen.
I have noticed no other adverse effects after making this change but have only been testing it for about a day.
