Default HD2 Volume bottom broken.. Alternative ?

Hi everyone

I just changed the screen of my hd2 but when I put the cover the volume button doesn't work.. I can push it with a sharp object (screwdriver, toothpick) so in fact it's not broken but it's a bit boring tu up and down the volume..

I'm on android (ICS) and I want to know if there are any alternative "tweaks" to replace the "real" button ? Like on iPhone when your home button is broken you can download a tweak via cydia..

If someone can help me, it will be great

Thaaanks !

PS : Sorry for my english..

There are widgets and apps that you can use to change volume within Android, but if your device uses the volume buttons for CWM then you'll need the physical buttons working.

Well you should be able to go to your settings and volume options and adjust it that way, alternatively clicking on the clock on the bottom right corner should bring up a menu that volume is normally located.

@spunker88 Yes for cwm I use the physical buttons.. What's the names of the apps and widgets ?

@Bernie Nolan Thanks dude

But the main problem is when I'm doing a phone call I can't up/down the volume..

I use Volume widget, you can select which volume you want to adjust (music, ringer, etc) or have a widget with multiple volume toggles. Its pretty nice and free. During a call you would have to go back to the home screen to change volume.
