Volume Rocker Turns on Screen

[yaeyaeman]

I found this while searching for a solution to stop the volume buttons from turning on the screen and I thought I'd share:

Disable Volume Wake Galaxy Nexus 4.0.4 Leaked ROM - xda-developers

Navigate to /system/usr/keylayout/ with Root Explorer or such and mount as read/write.

Make a backup of tuna-gpio-keypad.kl -- just in case

Then open tuna-gpio-keypad.kl in a text editor.

You will see 3 values after all of the header text information:

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE
key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE
key 116 POWER WAKE

Delete the "WAKE" from the buttons you wish NOT to have wake the phone.

Save the file and restart.

Confirmed it works. Don't delete WAKE from your power button!

I'm pretty sure that's an option in AOKP right now. I believe its under the rom control> lock screen settings. But good to know for the folks on stock roms.

Yep. AOKP = winning.

I don't think I would like this option because I noticed that when I put my phone in my pocket I have a tendency to hit the volume button by accident

I was tired of bumping the volume rocker and turning on the screen so I did a Google search and ended up here. Deleting WAKE from 114 and 115 works like a charm on stock rooted IMM76K.
