It's great that we have found a way to wake the phone using different buttons but i really still would like trackpad to wake the phone. It does work in amskgh's cyanogen mod port. Is there a way of finding out how or what exactly allows it and porting it over to any rom?
There is a specific file related to that, it's mentioned somewhere here, maybe if you compare it to cyanogen's one..
For some reason, TrackballWake isn't available as a standalone mod. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645481
Ok, dug the zip... Don't have enough time to play with it though (it is for CM).View attachment white-text-trackball-NoSuccessW-WSv01.zip
Hmmmm, can I flash this on a Desire?

As I said, it is for CM. (you don't need it as it is integrated in CM ROM already). On other ROMs you will probably end with endless boot. Needs work.

Ahh, endless boot. Maybe next time it's better for me to wait for a reply, I can confirm that it ends with an endless boot if you have a Desire
Just a thought, the trackpad is used to take a picture when pressed, if you kind find the key reference in the camera app, can that then be translated back to be used to wake the phone. Use the reference in the same bravo-keypad.kl file?
The trackpad sends BUTTON_MOUSE form the kernel, maybe that helps.
Then guess add a line to the bravo-keypad.ll file with that and the correct number, wonder if it the same as the N1.

I'd love to test this but using cyanogen already. Maybe someone else can test?
Tried editing the bravo=keypad.kl with a few different numbers and BUTTON_MOUSE, but no joy as yet.

Gutted. Just flashed over to a Froyo rom to try it out but you already did. Damn
Really want trackpad to wake. It's my only gripe with the phone.
Try the 272 keycode, hope it helps.

Nope, didn't work. With that setup it even ignores power button for both sleep and wake...
I don't think we can achieve this in bravo-keypad.kl...
Is the cyanogen rom so different that we can't compare and find out whhat makes it work? I don't think it is the bravo keypad file in that.
Yep, framework is entirely different on CM....

Yeah, the title says it all. Does anyone have a zip file that wakes and unlocks the phone by pressing the trackpad twice?
Have looked around but there are no mods for Sense.
Thanks
Edit: Now as the source code has been released, is there a new hope?
next time use search..!!?!

I think the problem with this one is that it's kernel specific?
I know it's quite simple to just flash a .zip in order to just wake using the buttons, but wake AND unlock seems to be more difficult...
Chimp
sorry i don´t try it yet..i only read the headline and download it...to test it if i have time

Well, don't try it unless you have the kernel listed there. Just make sure u do a nandroid backup.

There are only versions for MCR 3.1 there.
Somewhere the same for FroYo?
I think the source needs to be released by HTC first so we can integrate the mod into newer kernels. The same applies to overclocking Sense roms. We need the source.
No idea when it will arrive either
Ok, thanks
Sorry, perhaps I misunderstand the question. By using trackpad you mean that optical sensor? I don't understand what is in these linked packages, and why there is a broadcom Wifi module and god knows what included....
To activate the button in the middle, you just need to add /system/usr/keylayout/curcial-oj.kl. Grab it from some ready made ROM.
Why would anyone want wake from optical joypad???
That's annoying! What's wrong with lockscreens. (also, the phone will activate in the pocket!)

No, it won't activate in the pocket. I've been using trackpad wake for about 3 months and I've never woken up the phone unintentionally. The power button, on the other hand, is quite easy to press by accident...

Yes, that's true. The power button is quite exposed.
Sorry to both of you. I meant "Unlock" from trackpad is annoying.
I have nothing against wake.
i dont know if it helps but the CyanogenMod does support this feature.
i got it installed with the opendesire rom
bump, now as the source code has been released, is it possible?
It's May, 2011 now!! is it possible T_T
i want that for LeeDrOiD 3.0.5!!
TrackPad to wake is essential !!(trackpad to wake AND unlock is also welcomed )
(Bumping thread for development reasons not just missing around >> no ban :O )
Is there any way to change/disable/mute the beep that is heard every time you change the volume?
(I know you can hold it down to go to silent -- that's not what I mean.)
Thanks

What rom are you on? AOSP or Sense. I don't know how to do that, but I can poke around and see if I can find the correct sound file for you. Just need to know if you're on sense or aosp.

any luck ?? i couldn't find nothin'.
However, I'm pretty sure it's modifiable, because one of the many ROMs I've tried had a piano-like sound instead of the normal beep, that actually changed notes for each level...
Hey anyone know how to do this i searched the whole net and many ppl ask about that but noone knows the answere PLEASE HELP!!!
This is probably similar to disabling the camera focus sound. I will post a link before with information on that. Basically somewhere in the code it is invoking a virtual beep so there is not a sound file stored anywhere.

Searching on the proximity sensor I found these two parameters for the startup.txt:
board-htcrhodium-proximity.on=1 to enable the proximity device (default off)
board-htcrhodium-proximity.wake=1 to wake up the phone on proximity
http://xdandroid.com/wiki/Kernel_boot_command-line_parameters
But I can't get them to work.
Are they really available on FRX07 or NeoFroyo?
Thanks

The prox sensor is not enabled on the hardware level (kernel). Perhaps they will be available soon tho, I think ACL was working on them.

I think that if it's enabled kernel-side(I don't think so) you need to edit keymaps in rootfs to use it
But if it's not used kernel-side then you have to mess with the source

There's some hacking at the rootfs you'd have to do. F22's rootfs allowed you to remap the key to a few different things, but unfortunately he never made a merge request for his code... which wouldn't have been easy, he would've had to change the way he did certain things. His rootfs hasn't been updated in quite some time, so I would not recommend using it. I'm sure you can take his keymap stuff tho and put it into an updated rootfs - with a little bit of manual labor you'll be able to remap the PTT key to a few different things.
See F22's rootfs thread for more info on that.
i should have something to test for the prox sensor this week. Just finished the patch .. To be honest i have no idea when it's actually used or if our userland is ready for it.

kernel done but turns out we need some userland patches.
Wow you're really Johnny on the spot
i dunno if thats good or bad
I thought it was good, but sometimes when I try to make a reference it goes horribly awry.
Looks like this will be saved for gingerbread. Since userland changes need to be made, its not worth it to make em for froyo.
So next release of GB will have it

Does anyone know how to remap the Search hardware key so that when it is pressed the recent apps pop up instead? I have searched, but all of the "fixes" I have found have either not done anything or been phone specific. An easy to follow guide would be a big help and surely someone else is curious too. A flashable zip rewards you extra points.
P.S. I am on AOKP build 36 and the flashable zip I have seen floating around does not work for our phone.
THANKS AGAIN!

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
