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.

I have had a search around, but cannot find anything useful, I hope someone can help me, this is my only problem with the Diamond now!
Sometimes after the phone goes to sleep, it does not wake up properly. I have the phone set to switch the screen off after a delay and to autolock at that point as well. All has been fine with that except in the last few days sometimes when I try and bring the phone out of this sleep mode, it doesnt work.
Geneally I will press the centre button and the phone comes to life and I tap unlock and I am away. However, sometimes now only the top bar where the start button is will appear. The HW buttons light up, but the rest of the screen does not come to life and whatever I do, I cannot get it to come back. I can press the power button and it will go to sleep again and then when I try and wake it, exactly the same problem occurs. Only a soft reset will solve it - far from ideal.
Can anyone help please?
I carry my Tilt in my pocket and the Camera button gets continuously pushed keeping the screen on and killing my battery.
Is there a way to Prevent the Camera Button [and maybe all but the OK button] from waking up my Tilt. I tried AEButtons but it only remaps buttons, they still wake-up.
Yes, I have searched all manner of terms, camera button, wake up, sleep.............without results.
I don't think it's the camera button because the camera would not come on unless you have the device on. If you have wake on slide enable, this may be causing you issue along with the camera coming on when the button is push. I noticed a similar issue with my Tilt... the device would be on when I take it out and I disabled wake-up on slide. No more issues. Give that a shot.. maybe it'll help.
I an not saying that the Camera is coming on. The problim is that a very slight push on the camera button will wake up the device and turn the screen on [ie. wake it up from Sleep mode]. The camera button prutrudes out so far that it is very easy to push it while in my pocket.
I need a method to inhibit the the Camera button[and other buttons] from waking up the device.
I have looked through Settings and can not find the 'Wake on Slide' setting, where is it?
I just tested my Tilt and I cannot wake up the device by pressing the camera button... weird.
Anyway, search for Advance Config and it has an option to disable wake-up on slide. Worth a try.
Hi everyone,
I got a HTC Tytn 2 and i have a problem with it.
When i boot the phone it starts up and goes into windows like every windows mobile phone.
But when i press the standby button my screen wont go out of standby.
Only when i reset the phone it will work again.
Anyone got idea's ?
Oke, since no one responded.
Is there any way how i can make the Power Button replaced with the Speed Dial Button.
Because i think my power button is broke.

Have you at least tried backing up your data and doing a hard reset first ?
Yes, and i have also tried to put on a new rom and even updated the radio.
Iam a little bit out of idea's...
here are some more ideas:
1. how to test the power button: you say pressing the power button does not wake up the device once it goes to sleep. conversely, does pressing the power button put the device to sleep while the screen is on? if the power button is unable to make the device go off->on as well as on->off, then the power button is likely broken. if pressing the button achieves on->off, then the power button is probably ok and some software issue becomes more likely.
2. how to enable wake on pressing ANY hardware button: look for an option in Settings. i can't tell you the exact option because the ROM i am using does not have a link for this option, but this option does exist 100% in stock ROM and in lots of other ROMs. it contains settings like "Lock all buttons except power button" and "Keep all buttons unlocked" or something similar. by using the second option, pressing ANY hardware button while the screen is off will wake up the device.
3. you can use AE button plus to perform even more advanced button (re)mappings.
4. just to be sure that your device is really working correct, does the screen wake up when you call the phone or when you receive a text message? if it does not wake up even then, then search for "sleep of death".
Thanks for the response.
I think its a Service of Death problem.
Because when i try calling/smsing it, it wont go on
The buttons do work then...hopefully there's a fix for this problem...
Oke, i tried switching to 2G or 3G only but that didn't fix my Standby of Death.
I also bought a new sim card of vodafone so i wont get a No Sim error.
But what can i do now about it...it hangs like every 5 min...
Okay, after a will testing, the phone hangs every time its almost like when iam on the road with my tytn 2 and placing it upside down, it hangs.
But when iam putting it in the leather holder it doesn't hang.
Any had the same problems ?

Maybe it's hardware and something is coming loose
First off, I'd like to mention I'm new here, so if I'm posting this in the wrong place, please forgive me.
Second, the topic: I've had a problem with my power key for at least half a year now. As far as I can tell, it started after I accidentally dropped it (No harder than I usually would if I ever did drop it which is rare) with my otterbox case on it. I picked it up and tried to turn on my screen and noticed a long lag before the screen came on.
I didn't think anything of it until the next day the key wasn't responsive at all. I looked, and the key is not cracked, and there's no visible damage from the outside. I figured out if I shook the phone, or tapped on the button a certain way, sometimes I could get the button to work, but that was just unacceptable. So i found a fix in the application "Button Savior". Coupled with the volume rocker wake feature of my ROM.
But after all this time, I'd still really like my power button to work, so here are my questions:
1. Is this a common problem? Have you yourself experienced this, or have you seen others have this problem?
2. Any ideas on what is actually wrong with the button, and how I could fix the button mechanism? I'm not against taking the phone apart to repair it if that's what it takes.
Thanks in advance guys!
Additional info: Maybe not a hardware issue?
I've found that while having to enter into recovery mode by using the three button combo, it seems to register the power button being pressed in order to actually get into recovery, but once in recovery I have the same old problem of not being able to use the power button (as in I have to shake it and tap it a lot for it to register, and even that is unreliable)
If your phone's power button is in a 'pressed' state, like mine, (turns on automatically when battery is inserted), it is a hardware issue.
Here is a hassle free alternative to turn on the phone when it is in sleep mode, without relying on the power key!! Takes a minute or two only!!
1. Get 'Go launcher' from the app market (play)
2. Get 'Go Locker'
3. Now Enable Go Locker on your device. And you are done!!
When the screen goes black again, Just press the volume button, The screen wakes up!!
Using this method you don't lose the normal functionality of the volume rocker!!
I recalled that I used to have Go Locker on my phone, and that when I pressed the Volume key the screen turned on!!
At that time I found it a little annoying, But now it has turned out to be such a gift!!
* For this method to work, your phone has to be rooted.
The power button is not going to work until the hardware is repaired, I prefer to use this method, because it is a safe and quick method!!
Believe me I looked around the internet and this forum for a fix, The usual method: editing the system files on the phone, and after which the volume button cannot be used to control the volume.
For those looking for a quick fix, just follow my method!
Cheers!
There are also several roms out there that have the volume rocker wake built into the rom without making it completely useless for it intended purpose. As well as several that offer a go to sleep toggle in the notification window so you can lock your phone again.
so this is a hardware issue ? i had been using the go locker i been using but the power button is annoying cus it keep showing the power button options . and killing my battery.
only fix is samsung?
Pretty much every version of cm for cappy has volume rocker wake as an option, because of this common problem. I use app called turn off screen as well.

I had the exact same problem with my Epic Touch 4G. Thought it was the ROM, the overclock, etc. I flashed back to (almost) stock, went back to original clock speeds. I couldn't figure out what it the world was causing the issue, until it got worse. Then, I noticed that even brushing past the power button would wake the screen, and about 10 seconds later the phone would reboot.
Long story short, I bought a replacement power switch, soldered it in place, and have had zero problems since!
Several eBay sellers offer the proper replacement switch you'll need.
(They don't include the required skills to properly desolder/solder it, however. It's a tiny switch - about 4mm x 2mm x 1.5mm, and you'll need a good quality fine-tipped soldering iron.)
