No Menu button CM12 topic

As title says. There's no menu button. So in chrome for example you have to open a new tab, hit favorites cause there's no other way. In Facebook no menu button to save pics...

Anyone have any suggestions?

Power button Not working + unable to unlock using Double Tap to Wake up. topic

Hi Friends
The power button on my device does not unlock my phone (it is working well otherwise) also If I try to unlock using double tap to wake up, it does not happen. Here is what I did before this problem started:
I had stock CM11s (bootloader unlocked + rooted+TWRP), I backed up the ROM using TWRP. Then, I wanted to try out a few ROMs and hence I flashed MIUI Patchrom, then after using it for a few hours I flashed ColorOS by relic242, I used it for a day and then I flashed LiquidSmooth Lollipop current build. Then in the end I restored my CM11s using the TWRP restore. My oneplus logo is now red, please help me undo this. Also, I am having the unlocking problem which I described above.

Update: If I turn "prevent accidental wake up" off, the power button and double tap works, but if I turn it on these doesn't. Still buggy !

Thanks !

Save your Power Button topic

I've seen several posts where people are having their Power Buttons fail so I thought I would recommend an so that I've used for quite a while now.

Screen Off and Lock
Once installed and set up you just double tap the home screen.

About the only time I use my power button is to get to the reboot menu.

If you are in the habit of just letting your screen time out, this will actually help with battery life if you use it.

[Q] Rooting w/o the Down Vol Button topic

I'd like to install OmniROM 4.4.2 on my XOOM, but the volume down button doesn't work on this tablet. I understand the volume buttons used to navigate the Recovery menus. Can I install a "touch" Recovery that completely circumvents the need for the volume buttons to navigate?

[Q] Allwinner A13 Tablet : volume +/- button works in normal mode but NOT in Recovery topic

Hi XDA! Happy 2015!

I was given an A13 for Xmas. After exploring, everything works fine. I decided to look at it's Recovery, in case I should ever need it. It was then I discovered that, in Recovery, the Vol +/- button fails to function!
When booted into Recovery, the top option, "reboot system now", is highlighted. Vol +/- doesn't move the highlight; thereby excluding me from selecting any other option-
apply update from ABD/ wipe data/ factory reset/ wipe cache partition/ apply update from internal storage/ apply update from external storage/ apply update from cache.
Also, in Recovery mode, there is a line at the bottom of the screen (written in gold colour) saying "E:fopen error /data/miraGSensorOffset.txt".

So, after the supplier refused to help, (I cannot supply them with the order id no.), I have reasoned the problem to be a software issue (as the Vol. button works in Normal mode but not Recovery).

I've decided to root & flash it myself; (I admit that I will have to learn this as I go, as I've only done my Wildfire S & what an experience that was!).

Root checker app says it's not rooted. Before I start though, I know at some point I will probably need to able to boot to Recovery whilst the tablet is off. The issue here is Vol +/- fails when the tablet is off; it powers on normal mode every time, so Recovery can only be reached by: Power on> Settings> Backup & reset> Recovery mode ("Reboot into the system in Recovery Mode. Can clear the data or system upgrade").

Is root & flash the correct approach? And if yes, what about the inability to reach Recovery WITHOUT powering on? Will this not become an issue?

Thanks in advance,
Gerry.

[Q] HTC One (M7) Volume button not working topic

Hi, I've just bought a HTC One (m7), but the volume button doesn't seem to work. Apparently there's a known bug with one of the newer Android versions, but that should be software only. This seems to be a hardware issue, since I can't get into recovery mode (Power+Vol Down) either.

Android version: 4.4.3
Software version: 6.11.980.12

Does anyone have any advice for how I could fix this? I'd like to at least confirm it's a hardware issue, rather than just software, but if there's something I can do to get it working again, I'd be willing to try.

Thanks.

Home button long press topic

I'm running a stock based Rom, firekat I believe.

my issue is when long pressing the home key I get 3 options, Google, greenify, nothing. There is no option to choose a default action.

Second party to this is that I do not have the default app choice option when clicking an icon as there was in previous versions.

Can anyone clear this up?

Need help with Home Button topic

Hey guys.
This is a rather unusual question and I'm hoping someone would know the answer to this.

I downloaded an app called Atooma (which is similar to Tasker except this is FREE).
The app itself allows a user to launch an app when a trigger is activated. In this case I am trying to create a task that will simulate a Home Button press when I unplug the headphones (to go back to the home screen)

The question I have is : Does anyone know which app is triggered when you press the home button ?
(Settings > Apps > All Apps)

I originally thought it was "com.htc.launcher" but I can verify that its not. I tried this and it doesn't do anything

Just a FYI : I have spoken to the Atooma team and they tried this using the 'Launcher' app on the LG phone and it works.
I tried looking for something similar on the M8 but because of Sense 6.0, we dont have a Launcher app.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Power Button Fix for Tudia Cygen Case topic

As some others have mentioned, The power button on some of the Tudia Cygen cases applies too much pressure to the power button. The result is a super sensitive button push, or (in my case) a boot loop caused by it holding down the button. I was going to send it back, but by the time I paid return shipping it wouldn't be worth it. I decided to see if I could make it work with a little modification. Worst case scenario, I just blew .

Well, I'm happy to report I have a simple fix for the issue. I used a heat gun (a lighter will work in a pinch) to warm up the polycarbonate shell, then I bent it slightly outward at the power button. The button feedback is GREAT now. I hope this helps anyone else experiencing the issue.

Issues with notifications, home button - PAC ROM, SGH-T999 topic

Hey y'all! First of all, thanks for the forum, I am using a T-Mobile SGH-T999.

Second of all, I'm having some issues with my recent install of PAC Man ROM (pac_d2lte-release-20141231.zip with gapps4.4.4). The first issue I'm experiencing has to do with the notification drop-down. After I restore from Titanium Backup, I cannot see the tiles or notifications under the notification drop-down. I've browsed through the PAC Settings pretty extensively and have not found a solution to my issue. I did find the tile ribbon that I can activate but it is still inadequate, especially when it comes to notifications.

I do not know if this is a related issue to the one above but, after restoring from Titanium, I do not get a lock screen unless it is on the first boot; after that point, I can make the screen go black with the power button but, when pressed to wake up, the lock screen doesn't come back. Prior to restoring the backup from Titanium, I have no problem getting to the lock screen.

The final issue I am dealing with has to do with the 'home' button on the device. I first thought perhaps it was a hardware issue but, after turning on PIE controls and the navigation buttons, it seems that pressing 'home' does nothing at all.

Thank you so much for reading this post, please let me know if I can be of any further information.

disable power button long press when screen is locked topic

lost my phone a few days ago and got me thinking about security, so i picked up the htc one M8 because of the unibody design with unlimited data so i can track it at all times. thing is though when the phones screen is locked you can still turn it off rendering GPS functionality useless if it was lost or stolen. is there a way of disabling this.

Force menu button? topic

I would like to know if there is a way to force the menu button to show on the navbar for lollipop roms. I like a couple lollipop roms but not having the menu button is a real killer for me. Or if there is a way to change recents to menu that would be good too. A zip or instructions would be very helpful. On KitKat and older builds I usually changed it in one of the files but I can't seem to find it on lollipop.

Thanks

Button Rattling topic

So, as the title says, the buttons on my phone are rattling. They're also very very loose and the power button feels like it could fall out. My brothers M8 doesn't have this, neither any I've seen at stores. Haven't exchanged because i only took the case off past the 14day return/exchange period. Anyone else have any experiences with this? How have they held up? Anyone try to replace it? I'm worried because I;'m rooted/s-off/they might charge me. Thanks!

Changing Button Functions topic

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone had any luck remapping the hardware buttons. I'd like the follow sort of layout:
Home > Home
Long Home > Google Now
Menu > Recents
Long Menu > Menu

I can't see a way to change the long press functionality in the key file. Has anyone had any luck there?

I'm on SlimSaber 5.02 so I can't run the exposed stuff.

Thanks!

Pressing power button delay / lag? topic

Hi,

Has anyone noticed a very slight delay when pressing the power button to wake the screen, as compared with the Nexus 4?

Maybe only half a second but still there's a slight delay in my opinion.

Thanks

[Q] Need MENU BUTTON in the navigation bar ( 5.0.X ) topic

Hi all,

I'm really happy with new Lollipop' based roms since last November :)

But at the moment I've set the double tip on HOME BUTTON of the nav bar the MENU function... 'cause in Lollipop, for the rom available in this period, there's no way to customize the soft keys and having 4 buttons :

* home
* menu
* recent
* back

I'm using an app to simulate 4th MENU button on the nav bar. Anyone knows a mod to flash to have the availability to change this behaviour ? To add another button ? To custom it ?

Thx :highfive:
