Yeah basically it's trying to turn off the screen but can't, so you have to "turn it back on" to enable touch on the screen again. We have a long way to go but I'm still pretty pumped given how fast this is already.

Now to just implement Sense UI, lol

Yeah. You have to press it again.

It almost acts like a screen lock on my Verizon version.

Press in once and the screen doesn't respond, but if you press it again it works fine.

I definitely need to play around with the button mapping.

Edit: and if I press and hold down on the top button I get a screen with ringer profiles and an option to turn the phone off. It never actually turns off for me though. It starts to, but then it just hangs.
