Anyone else notice that the lockup/need to battery pull "issue" was addressed? It says if it locks up and touch screen is unresponsive, hold power button for 10 seconds to reset. Good ta know..
I didn't like, however, whether it clarified the 2step function of the camera button, nor whether it could wake the device up straight to camera or even if you could launch it from the lock screen via shutter button..hrmmm, guess I'll hafta find out next Friday

I was just wondering if anyone could answer this for me.
The led lights under the touch buttons are not working anymore. And sometimes my screen becomes unresponsive. Does TEP cover this? Could I get a replacement?
EDIT: 200 posts!
Seems hardware related...it should be covered
We're comin from a pure power source.
I would put it on stock first so they can't complain about it being a custom rom related problem. then take it in. it shouldn't matter if its relocked or not. although I believe you have to relock first to run a ruu.
yea i'll deff make it stock first. hopefully they dont see that it says "re-locked"
On some ICS ROMS my touch buttons stop lighting up as well, might be a kernel or ROM issue.
No its not kernel or ROM related.
The home button doesn't light up. The menu button is all distorted. The back button is fine and the search button is very dim.
Water damage

Well, for me, the only thing that made my droidx2 not perfect, was the home row of buttons. I always figured, why ruin the touchscreen experience with a clicking button thats basically a small slit. Now dont get me wrong, i dont mind buttons like on the charge, which were huge and pretty nice to press. But the ones on the dx2 and X1 were kind of a let down. So, i searched around and got hold of an app called SoftKeys, and i feel like even though it might be an extra click to bring up the buttons, i dont have to shift my hands to firmly press the buttons anymore, giving me much more fluid use of my phone. Hope this comes of use to anyone else sick of their buttons!
I attached some pics of them running on my phone, so you can see that it persists as a little button to press on, that you call in the home row.
This is pretty sweet. I will have to download and try it out. The softkeys are the worst on these phone. I much prefer to have them as a touch screen extension. Plus, when you are laying in bed at night surfing XDA on your DX2 and your spouse in sleeping so soundly next to you, the CLICK sound that the back button makes after you are done reading a post could easily disrupt the ZZZ's. Just me? lol
I'll come back and let you know how I like it.
PS: What is that battery widget on your homescreen. I NEED IT!
The battery meter im using is called battery monitor widget ver 2.0.6. and my gf is a light sleeper so i am in that boat lol.
Thanks! I've been using one but I'd rather have a widget than have it hanging out in my notification bar.
I use Button Savior. The developer has kept up development on it and it is really pretty nice. It now does all the main hardware buttons, volume control, phone button, etc. It's pretty nice. Just my $0.02, adjusted for inflation, of course.
Ciao!

I have Button Savior installed just in case any if my buttons stop working. The free version is quite simple and nice.

Button Savior is where its at!!!!!
I have to agree this button savior seems very nice. My back button is starting to sink in. So this is nice to have I did not care for soft keys that much.
Man the more I use this the better I like it. Wish I knew about this app before. I tried the soft keys but missed moon shadows post about this app.
Hi folks,
Have you heard if ICS implementation includes plan to get rid of Touch key (capacitive button) on Galaxy Note I717?
I'm so tired of constantly pressing buttons by accident. (It's most likely the way I hold my phone but still that's the way I feel most comfortable)
What are your thoughts folks? Should these buttons be something I should be embracing instead? Should I go back to iphone? (just kidding!)
Seriously, does anyone know if they are going to remove these buttons?
Quick answer is no. You might be able to disable them and use icons.

What he said^^
While some wish to not have them period, many still make use of them everyday and to be honest, on screen only buttons arn't 100% reliable. I have only a home button on my Nook Color and rely on OnScreen buttons and sometimes you'll be tapping them with no response, but tapping the hom button works. If given the option to disable in lieu of Button Savior i would certainly try it out, but I would never want the buttons disabled completely with no option to enable.
Right I meant option to disable! I wonder if ROM developers will consider this option for my model
I know that when ics alpha came out on the Astrix it had the ics icon buttons even though the Astrix uses capacitive buttons. Later the touch buttons were removed

On my Galaxy Nexus they were as much reliable as capacitive buttons. On screen buttons, in my opinion, is a plus for Android.

I love on screen buttons and use them all the time, I'm just saying I do not want the hardware capability removed, just optional. I preferred Button Savior, if you havn't tried them give it a whirl, they are great.
I really don't mind the buttons. I just got my note last night and didn't think the s-pen not being able to use them would be a big deal. However, it is.....
BUT my biggest problem is the home and menu buttons are flipped compared to my tbolt. It's going to take awhile to adjust to that.
Is that how all samsung phones are?

You can make gestures with the s-pen that does exactly the same as pressing a button. Check it out!

Can.

wow 60 views and NO ideas?
No, it cannot. They are inactive until the screen is turned on. Your phone wouldn't be able to go into deep sleep if it was anticipating you touching soft keys.

why not? surely it doesn't take all them brainy quad cores to monitor one little button.
The HoX can do it so why cant ours?

what is the big deal to press either power or home botton to wake up screen....
Hard botton is always prefferable for unlocking the screen otherwise each accedental tap will make your phone awake and drain the battery to zero in your pocket itself...

With paranoid android you can turn on the onscreen buttons and some people actually prefere this, some even have remapped the home button to a soft key. All i'm saying is that some people do not like the feel on the home button.

Its actually a mod that you install, and the battery issues are not present in most the custom roms
why cant any of the devs make the back key, when you hold and press, the task manager appears. i think holding the main button dow will eventually mess the button up. at the moment when you hold and press the back key, nothing happens. whereas if you hold down the menu button you get google search thingy

When the CPU is in deep-sleep, none of them are awake. Actually the CPU sets itself a timer to wake up, check for work and go to sleep again.
(Not really different from what we do all day =) Only with the exception that it's not supposed to oversleep ^^ )
I'm not sure as for the hardware but there are 2 possible reasons for the CPU not waking up to softkeys:
- they might be polled (the CPU asks their status every X milliseconds) instead of interrupts (notify the CPU with very high priority about any changes) That would mean the CPU had to be awake for them to work which drains a lot of power
- Some interrupts are capable of waking up a deep-sleeping CPU , others aren't.

i don;t think that is really an issue, this has been the same on the S2 as well and it didn't mess up the button.
Just want to make sure it's not just mine...
Does the volume rocker buttons have more of a "click" to them than the power button for anyone else?
I notice a slight difference, but nothing that major.
Mine feel the same

I never noticed it before but ya, mines the same. My power button doesn't click at all but the volume buttons both do. I don't really care either was about the clicking etc, so I'll assume its gonna last forever

It takes getting used to, but I've come to like it. If you have your phone on your desk for instance, you can just press the home button to see your notifications or the time, instead of having to hold the phone while pressing the power button. It also makes it easier to not accidentally press it when using the phone.
For me it's the opposite. My power button makes more of a click sound than my volume buttons.
I have a galaxy nexus but my volume button is way more clicky than my power button. This never really bothered me and makes sense in a way considering one is a two part button and the other is a one part button. A volume rocker should be clicky anyways so you know you pushed it.
