Guest Erem Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Just found this on XDA and it works great for those who want it to work like a Hermes or don't want errant case magnets powering up the phone. Disable the keyboard slide-out auto power up feature... For those who want to disable the annoying power up by sliding out the keyboard, here's the way to fix this: Navigate the registry to HKLM>HARDWARE>DEVICEMAP>KEYBD Create a DWORD entry call "SlideWakeup" with value 0, then reset your device.

Guest mandt Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 I also saw this tip, but thought 'Why would you slide the keyboard out if you didn't want to use the phone? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil Lee Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 A small slide of the keyboard will cause the phone to power up. This could be a problem if it is in your pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Erem Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Right, more often than not, when I need the keyboard, the phone is already On. I find that I bump the slide an/or do other things that power up the phone when I didn't want to so I like having this Off. It's nice to now have choice!

Guest ifti001 Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 I have been looking for this for a while. almost everytime I put my phone in the belt clip (while its on the belt) even without any sliding movement the phone wakes up.
