use root explorer on your phone navigate to system/usr/keylayout

open all the files with text edit until you find one similar to below, but it will probably not have any -> WAKE,

simply add WAKE next to the name of the button you want to wake the phone

key 102 HOME WAKE

key 139 MENU WAKE_DROPPED

key 158 BACK WAKE_DROPPED

key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE

(this is took from my o2x, not got a skate on me to check the exact layout, it will be close to the same)

WAKE should be put instead of WAKE_DROPPED ? I have WAKE for home button but it does not wake it up.......

It has already that in my phone

But don't work

i use CM7~

It would be nice to have a flashable .zip to do this so you can flash this over every ROM so you can allways wake up your screen without pulling te battery out :)

I'm pretty sure the hardware doesn't support it. Only way would be to not let the phone fully sleep at a quite large battery loss.

I remember they managed to do this on the desire with some sort of kernel hack.
