Hi All,
I just got a Tab yester and I noticed a couple of this which am not sure if its normal to the tab or not.
1. When I press and hold the power button I was expecting a dialogue box with options to switch off or restart etc but it just shutdown the Tab as against the rooting video available on here where the guy pressed and held the power button to get a couple of option, not sure if this is a fault with my tablet or not.
2. when I turn off the screen and switch it back on I was expecting a lockscreen that I can just drag to unlock but i do not seem to get that, I ve been to security and the only options are pattern, PIN and password, but i was just looking for a drag to unlock screen option which is not available.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
I have the same problem

Hello together
I have a little problem with my HD2. I have the Goatrip 6 ROM installed with Cookie´s Home Tab 2.0 and S2U2 2.43. The problem is that S2U2 don´t lock the long press end key.
There is a not choosable option in S2U2 2.43. "Don´t lock long press end key"
I need a program who locks the long press end key similar with the lockscreen. Do anybody know a program? Thanks for your help.
I don't think it is possible.
The normal/official rom lock (with the slider or hd mini version) doesn't lock it either.
It's probably something to do with that key being the power key, that it will have priority over everything else to allow you to power off. All keys are able turn the screen on, but long press send key doesn't work while locked, maybe because it's a hack and not standard.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think u could remove it by closing Endkey.exe.... But u cannot block it just for S2U2...
i have read this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168660
but i still don't know what to do for my phone
the power menu is easy to bring up in the lockscreen while i am holding the phone, or in my pocket. and so it is easy to reboot itself accidentially
if anyone help how to disable the power menu in the lockscreen, it will be very helpful .
thanks so much
Wake up!
Waking up this same problem..
Is there any way to disable the phone options when the screen is locked. Main purpose is when stolen. I told my friends to hide my phone on one of their pockets, then i'll send an alarm text using Gotya! app but nothing happened..
Found out that one of my friends turned off my phone by using phone options on the lockscreen..

Hi everyone. I need to be able to skip the swipe screen and unlock the phone by long pressing the power button. On short press, it should act regularly (waking up and showing the swipe screen). I've tried "No Lock", "Autolock" and "My Lock Utility" but these unlock the phone immediately after pressing the power button
I think this would be the ideal combination of functionality.
My phone is Motorola Atrix.
Thanks in advance
I dont think this will work
You must make a kind of custom rom including this function and u have to implement this function on ur own :/
Hi folks, not sure if this is the right place for this, but hopefully it will get moved if needed.
So, how many times have you used the menu button on your phone to check the time? And then you have to press the power button on the side to turn the screen off - right?
What if the menu/home button was able to turn of the screen when on the lockscreen? So you only need that one button to turn the screen on and off?
I know, I know, there's a power button like RIGHT THERE...but you have to change your hand position/shape to use it, when the home button is sat there doing nothing.
Is it possible? Does anybody want to have a go at it?
Or am I just a lazy so-and-so?
I have one..but I dont know can it working with your ROM... Im using CrDroid LLA + JKay,, backup your rom before flash it..

My Chromebook used to turn off the screen anytime I pressed the power button. I often use it to type notes during presentations, and I loved having a fast easy way to turn off the screen to save power if I knew I wouldn’t be typing anything for 5 or 10 minutes.
A few months ago, a ChromeOS update changed this so it only works it tablet mode now, pressing the power button in laptop mode now opens an on-screen menu with options to shutdown, log off, or lock screen. The best workaround I have found so far is to use the brightness keys to get the screen off, but it’s a pain to get it back to the right brightness level every time.
I have the Chromebook in developer mode, and I would like to do one of the following (in order from most to least preferred):
1. Restore power button functionality to how it was before.
2. Re-purpose the lock screen button on the keyboard for turning off the screen.
3. Add a keyboard shortcut to toggle the screen on and off.
4. Add a “Turn off screen” option to the current on-screen menu.
I never really modified ChromeOS before. Has anyone else done these things? Where should I begin? Thank you.
Here is some relevant documentation, maybe the information at the bottom is useful?:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/master/power_manager/docs/power_buttons.md
I was able to do it by adding the flag "--force-tablet-power-button" to /etc/chrome_dev.conf and restarting the UI, but changes to that file don't seem to persist accross system reboots.
