Thumbwheel woes

I like to use the thumbwheel on the XV6800 but I'm having a couple of issues. First, the thumbwheel on my phone has an inconsistent feel. That is, it rolls easy for a portion of the turn, tightens up, and then rolls easy again. This makes it difficult to use. I was thinking of spraying some silicone lube in there but I'm afraid it might effect the phone in a detrimental way that I haven't thought of. Thoughts?

The second, and just as annoying is that my index finger typically ends up around the power button area so when I push in the thumbwheel to select whatever option I end up turning off the display! This is super annoying. Anyone found a work around? I see that you cannot remap the power button in the settings. It would make more sense to remap it to the camera button if possible.

Finally, I'd like to get set up a way to activate/deactivate bluetooth off of the today screen and remap the comm manager button to something else (I typically only use the comm manager to switch bluetooth off or on).

Edit Add: One last thing... is there a way to make it default to the block recognizer after a soft reset?

Suggestions welcome.
