When I first got it, the volume button would wake up the phone. A few days later it stopped doing it. Maybe I changed some settings but I've been looking thru them all and can't find it.

Was this a bug? I know most people need apps to be able to do that from what I read.

It was so much nicer than pressing the power button. *sigh*

I like waking up the phone with the volume buttons as well. I use a program known as widgetsoid 2.x, you can download it from the market, that lets you unlock the screen - meaning that you can wake the phone with the power button or volume rockers and won't need to slide to unlock it either.

So you can't do it without an app?

Must have been just a tease. lol

I was hoping there was something simple in the settings somewhere.

Download No Lock, it allows you to use the volume rocker + power button to wake up the phone and gets rid of the lock screen for those of us that don't like it.

I use NoLock as well. Occasional Opera Mobile errors when waking the phone up, but overall NoLock works well...

Thanks, No Lock was much better than widget locker that i've been using. The slider in widget locker is so slow/laggy.

You can also download "lock screen" to be able to lock screen by touching an icon instead of the horrible power button.

Atrix Wake Up On Volume Down Button

If you are using a custom ROM with cyanogen mod go on settings-cyanogen settings- input- and tick volume rocker wave.
this will allow you to wake your Atrix without using the annoying power button.

If this helps please press thanks.
