Changing Button Function - HTC Amaze 4G

My power button has been acting kind of wonky as of late and its starting to make me a bit nervous since it also wakes the phone up. I'm wondering if there is a way to change the camcorder button on the side of the phone to the power/unlock button? I've searched around to find an answer but it doesn't seem like this issue has arisen before.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
I'm also rooted and using energyROM

On EnergyRom you can use the Energy tweaks to set the volume to wake...its in the lockscreen section.

the camcorder button does wake the phone up lol

yes, I've had an issue in the past and used button remapper, works on the amaze and does exactly what you are looking for.

Some roms don't let you wake on camcorder or camera button, but even if they do you have to wake in camera then back out of it, so at least this way you've got what you need

thanks so much! i was in a similar situation and this worked perfectly! the camcorder can easily be launched from the camera!

Yes! This is exactly what I needed. I noticed that it doesn't work to power the phone on, but its better than nothing. Thanks Again!
EDIT: actually it does power the phone on... best solution ever!

[Q] - Disable screen capture sound

I am on the ICS leak (and have been for a little over a month now)... currently on .211. I have searched and searched and cannot find the answer I am looking for... so thought I would post the question.
Is there a way to disable the sound the phone makes when you do a screen capture (PWR + VOL Dwn)? I followed the directions to disable the camera sound (outside of the camera application) but the sound still persist, even while the darn thing is on silent.
Any clues on how to disable the sound?

This is where you would start. Start by moving to SD. Don't delete. Remember what you did. If the sound doesn't exist in the system then it can't produce what isn't there.

Is that the only location where system sounds are located? When I was viewing that last night... nothing stood out as the click (except the camera click sound).
Yeah I guess going through each of em one by one is the only option. Grumble. If none of those work... I am at a loss then!
I just changed mine to the camera sound from a nexus and it changed my sound associated w my screenshot too. Maybe its just tied together. Other than silencing your phone and then taking a pic I don't know exactly how to break it from there
if you are using samsung galaxy s3, you could try silent screenshot instead. simple and cool.

[Q] Touch sensitivity in ROMs other than stock on first taps

Hi I have been testing different ROMs and kernels (mainly based on CM9 and CM10), but in-all-but stock, the touch screen behaves differently. The first tap, and sometimes the second try, gets ignored by the phone (the button background doesn't change color or do the action) until another tap.
Anyone else noticing this difference? Also, it seems that you need to be more precise in other ROMs when tapping. Sometimes it scrolls for me instead of pressing the button. I get used to it, but the screen seems to work better, specially on first tap on the stock one. Any settting to try?

I do know what app is in the picture (power widget lite) but I'm looking for an app that does only this volume slider function. Anyone know?

Your phone doesn't pop one up like this when you press the volume button?
What device are you on?
No, well, kinda. It comes up, but I can't slide it once it does, which is what I want. It's because I have gingerbread, or because I have touch wiz, Idk which one.

I found an app that does something like what I said, but is with the brightness instead of the volume. And it comes up whenever I press the volume rocker on my device, so that is a plus! Support for the app is gone though, because it hasn't been updated in 2 years. It's called Brightness Rocker incase anybody wants to know.

I've tried getting the menu button back with TweaksBox but just doesn't seem to want to work. Tried what the app suggests plus rebooted and nothing... Am I just missing something?

Dude, no offense but this is like seriously the most idiotic question you could ask, the screen filter is covering those buttons, disable it then try again, and no i don't know a way to continue using screen filter without impending buttons functionality.
