Posting this because it took me a while to get it done. Why do it? Because the placement of the physical buttons straight-across each other on opposite side of the phone makes it awkward and annoying to use the power/wake button without also hitting/squeezing the vol up/down button. And because volume can be adjusted otherwise using touchscreen in Settings.
Root phone. Install root-enabled file manager app (I use Total Commander, various others work, too.) Go to /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl
Mount read/write, open file in editor, etc
Comment-out the two lines:
key 115 VOLUME_UP
key 116 VOLUME_DOWN
...so they look like this:
#key 115 VOLUME_UP
#key 116 VOLUME_DOWN
Save file. Reboot. Volume button basic functions are deactivated.
