Hello,
I hate where designer put power button (on a side), each time I power up a phone I inadvertengly also slide keyboard, it also not raised. Can I remap power button somehow for PTT button so phone will wake up and go to sleep on push on PTT button rather then Power button itself?
try AEButton plus.
Hi guys,
Is there a way to turn the device on from standby with other than the power on/off (standby) button? If it's possible by using AEBUTTON+ ,what are the settings? For example I would like to switch on when i press (or press and hold) the volume buttons.
It's quite annoying that the phone is turn on when the power button is pressed because I keep accidentally press the button >_<
Is there a way to change it to something like "press and hold" to turn on the phone?
I don't know. But I know that trying to re-map the key is difficult, especially getting the button required to hold.
Is it possible to get rid of the action screen that pop-up after pressing the Power-Off hardware button to turn the phone of?
The action screen is annyoing and useless and I'd love the HD2 to simply shut down after pressing the power button for a few seconds like most phones do.
Is there an patch/mod to totally eliminate the action screen?
Thanks to all
A couple of quick questions for people who have actually got the phone:
1) Is there an easy way to turn the backlight/screen on/off (to save battery) at the press of a button as you can on most other touchscreen phones?
2) How easy/quick is it to lock/unlock the phone?
3) Approx how many seconds is it from when you press the power button to when the phone is fully loaded and ready to be used?
Thanks in advance!

1. Briefly press the Power Button.
2. To Unlock ~ Swipe your finger across the screen.
3. Depends:
Are you talking of from Powering On or from switching the screen back on?
If from Powering On:-
It really depends on how many Apps/Drivers installed but mine takes around 25 seconds from a long press on the Power button to fully loaded.
If from just switching on the screen:-
Instantly.... and can be switched on either with a brief press on the Power button or the Home key at the bottom of the screen.
Thanks for the reply!
I presume the power button is on the very top edge of the phone?
So would I be correct in saying that a brief press on the power button actually turns the display off (effectively locking the phone from the point of view of accidentally pressing something on screen if it's in your pocket for example) ?
But if the home button turns the screen back on in the same way as the power button, wouldn't THAT be prone to accidentally activating the phone when you don't want it to?
I've always found it much quicker to simply turn off the display instead of actually locking it.

The power button is on the side of the phone, on the right side.
If you press the power button on Android it will lock and shut off the screen yes.
and you press the home button on any android device it usually activated the screen and then you have to swipe to unlock.
Thanks...I was getting confused.
So when you briefly press the power button, it actually "locks" the phone and turns off the display and needs to be "unlocked" with another press of this button & a finger swipe.
Is this hard coded or can you stop the "home" button from also trying to lock/unlock the device, i.e. can I simply use the power button to lock/unlock and the home button doesn't do anything in this state??

It is hard coded.
However, to switch the phone on using the Home button does require a significant press and it is recessed.
Very quick to unlock the phone, whether you use the swipe to unlock or the Android 'join the dots' security. I actually prefer this as you have a decent sized clock on the screen.
I presume the Simcard PIN request on device startup works the same as it does on Windows Mobile devices?
