I became worried yesterday because my power on/off key feels like it lost its spring. I'm hoping I won't be saying goodbye. What is the typical response from Verizon when a subscriber with a Droid bought on day one does a mechanical death?

If you really want to keep your d1 you could file an insurance claim or pick one up off of ebay or craigslist. Pretty sure vzw isn't selling them anymore and the factory warranty will have run out on you.

What I did was install Button Remapper to allow me to make the volume down button act like the power button. The only time I need to use the power button is in recovery.

I also realized that I can access the prior menu (go up one menu) in recovery by using the back button. So the half dead power button doesn't seem to be the death of my Droid.

The more recent recovery (2.5.0.1)uses a "back" option to move back to the main menu - so that the power button is not needed. The last choice in all of the secondary menus is "back".

The back key (lower left hard key back) which used to bring you to the prior menu is no longer working on the recovery that is on my phone.
