possible to disable volume keys? asus tf700

hey! here's the thing. my volume button is constantly pressing volume down, i believe that something is stuck underneath it. so i really want to disable them and use a wiget for volume control. The problem is that i haven't rooted my tab yet, and without functional volume buttons that might be hard? or am i wrong? or is there maybe a way to disable them without a root?

[Q] Volume rocker as wake button - Tasker

Hey, I have a Nexus 4 and I want to use the volume rocker as the power button to wake the device when it's in sleep. That's because sometimes the volume rocker is more accessable to me than the wake/sleep button. I know the app for this is tasker. Now here is the basic plan:
If the screen is off + VOLR changes (up or down) >> Screen on.
My problem is with the function that checks if the Volume has changed. I tried several things but nothing worked.
Is my idea possible without a rooted device? Is my plan aiming at the right direction? Please help.
Thanks in advanced
Oren.
I would like to know if this is possible as well. I am stock rooted on my Nexus 4.

[Q] CM Volume Rocker Long Press Useless on Screen Off?

CM has this feature where you can use the volume rocker to skip tracks when the screen is off. I really dislike the feature so I have disabled it via settings. But now a volume rocker longpress does absolutely nothing when the screen is off. I would expect the volume to increase/decrease gradually when the volume rocker is long pressed. Whats the point of disabling one functionality without re-enabling the other!!
Anybody know the fix to this? Not sure if this problem is just with me, or with everyone on CM.
Thanks

How to get Volume buttons to wake phone in Lolipop (CM12.1)?

Edit: this is no longer an issue in CM13.0 snapshot. I went ahead and upgraded and can confirm volume rocker wake (and double tap to wake) work.
Hi All I'm on CM12.1 (MT2L03 cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K2-mt2) and can't seem to figure this out. I had the volume buttons waking the phone from screen off in 4.3 working great...I used that for quite a while (since I used the option to end calls with power button need volume buttons to wake screen also saves wear to power button) so the hardware supports it but not sure how to get it working on lolipop (CM12.1).
In Jellybean, I just had to add 'WAKE' after the volume keys like:
key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE (in /system/user/keylayout to the kl files)
I tried this for CM 12.1 and it doesn't seem to work. Since it worked before I suppose it could work again if a setting is changed or something.
Also I tried adding:
ro.config.hwfeature_wakeupkey=1
to my build.prop and rebooting and that didn't work either. (Setting it to 0 disables volume key waking)
The xposed module XUtilities option: Volume rocker wake also did not work.
The xposed module GravityBox doesn't have the option or I didn't see it there.
There's this reference:
http://cyanogenmod.github.io/cm_pla...ers/CMSettings.System.html#VOLUME_WAKE_SCREEN
which refers to VOLUME_WAKE_SCREEN setting (in CM API)
In the Buttons section of CM's settings, I have the End call (Pressing the power button will end the current call) option ON. One would think this would allow the volume buttons to wake the screen if the screen goes off during a phone call so you can wake it back up without ending the call. Also with this option on, on more than one occasion I went to turn my phone on just as an incoming call came in and used the power button which ended the call...so I've gotten in the habit of using the volume up/down buttons to turn on the screen getting around that issue (also saving wear and tear on my power button).
There's an app in the play store that can do what I want called DTSO (fails after time) VPL by prasi but it stays running and uses more battery power. The hardware solution that was working in 4.3 didn't require a background app to allow this feature and also didn't require extra battery power. So this isn't ideal. I'd rather have Cyanogenmod ROM directly support it or have a way to use it with it.
I want to be able to press the volume buttons and the screen come on like it used to. How?
Thank you for any suggestions :fingers-crossed::good:
