Hi all,
My XDA IIs works well before. But few days ago the Power button doesnt work properly, it can turn on the phone, hold to turn off the back light, but I can't use it to turn my phone screen off like before. Anyone has same problem ?
Can you see any part of the screen? It might just be that the backlight adjustments are set too low when the unit isn't cradled. You might be able to see the screen in daylight.. or maybe it was inside your home. I forgot where I was at when it happened to me. In anycase, if you can see a bit of images on your screen, go into the Backlight properties and change the setting to your liking.
Good luck..
The problem is i can just press the power button to turn off my phone BEFORE (the screen is completly off), and NOW it doesnt work at all ! When my phone was off, I can press the Power button to turn it on, or when I hold it for few seconds the back light will be turned off, but press once to turn off. I dont know why, if somthing wrong with the Power button it should be doesnt work at all, that's mean i cannot turn on my phone as well. But other functions of the Power button are still work well, except the 'Turn off' :roll:
power off doesn't work anymore
I have the same problem here. I can't use the power button to power off my qtek 9090!!
i can use the power button to turn my pda on and to switch the background light on and off - so the "hardware side" of the power button is working.
however, i can't use the power button to turn off the device. it's very annoying, because i can't put it in my pocket after finishing a call :-(
this should be some sort of a software problem - so i hard resetted my device (a couple of times) - but that didn't help!
can anyone help?
thanks,
lorenz
the ba doesn't turn off it is always on staand by mode. ->settings -> system -> button lock
this will stop any missed call because when the ba is in standby the power button is the only one to work
power on is no problem. i can't put my BA into standby mode. if i press the power button while the BA is turned on, nothing will happen. the screen will stay on, the background light stays on.
i have no way to put it into stand-by with the power button!
try this and see if it works. it's a software app that wil rest, shut down, and turn the screen off. just copy it to your BA temp directory and install it.

power button problem
Does anyone solve the problem???
Had the same problem...
I had the same problem going on for about two weeks or so...never changed anything and it went away all by itself.
The problem has not come back now in over 4 months.
Sure would love to know what the problem was tho...

Power Off does not work
Add my name to people with this problem.
The only event I can link it to is this: I deleted my Motorola Bluetooth headset and installed a Logitech headset. I noticed the problem (can't turn OFF with POWER BUTTON) soon after that.
same problem for me ..... someone must know !!!!
I think it is a hardware problem. The contact is not making cleanly. Disassemble and spray time, perhaps.
It's a standard push switch, easy enough to replace, I occasionally list themon ebay but any phone repairier should have them in stock.

i had same problem yesterday afternoon, but it is ok now. recovered by himself
Write again in two weeks and let us know if it is still healthy. In my case, anintermittent problem became continuous.
Can't turn the screen on after pressing power button
I have a problem with my Bell Atrix. After pressing power button to lock the screen, i can't wake up the screen up by pressing that button again. Could anyone tell me how to fix it pls.
Thanks for reading the post...I am very frustrated with this device and want to see if ANYONE can help me...
First, the power button...I can turn the device on, but it will not turn the device off...it only lights on the screen backlight or turns the screen backlight off...I can't power it off, no matter how long I press it for...Therefore I have to take tha battery out to power off...which is not good for data!
Second, the backlight on battery level resets itself to 0 (thus a near black screen until I can get it into a bright light and go in and activate the backlight on battery level to 1 at least) Why is this doing this, and it only happens every 5-6 times I power the device on...
Thanks for your help everyone!!!
As far as I know, there is no way to actually power off the JasJar/Universal - it's always in a standby mode unless you pull the battery.
Not sure about your other issue though - sorry.
Cheers,
Steve.
It resets the backlight settings probably because it has "forgotten" your previous settings due to the way you "power off" your Universal. It is a phone, not a laptop, so it only goes into standby mode.
Sounds like you are pressing and holding down the power button for too long. To turn on/off the device, just tap on the power button once and don't hold it down. Hope that helps! :wink:
is there a registry edit so that when i press the turn backlight button off (power button) so it locks into s2u2??
I don't know but I have it so that S2U2 activates when the backlight turns back on again. So I press the power button to switch it on, and S2U2 loads.
This is probably better for battery life so that you don't have the app running whenever you're not using the phone.
There is a setting to lock when the backlight turns off.
Have you actually looked in S2U2 settings to check this yet?
I withdraw my question.
When trying to set my Desire into standby mode by pressing the power button it switches on the display again at once. Even trying some other ROMs doesn't fix the problem.
Does anyone know why and has a solution for this problem?
Your power button might be damaged. Look for a screen lock app on the playstore and use it to put your device to sleep instead of using the power button.
via xda app
Same with such an app. Display comes back again.
Volume button sems to be active too cause after display comes back sometimes the volume setting "sound " appears .
No idea or wrong category here?
Did you activate a "volume key wake" that enables volume keys to wake up the device ?
On my Desire these buttons can be a bit hard to push sometimes, maybe you have the opposite effect ?
Edit : such settings may be found in the "display" section of the settings tab
No, even several other Roms didn´t fix the problem.
Also watched: the volume funktion seems to be active in background too cause after almost every "wake up" the ring volume setting is displayed for 1 second.
Seems to be a hardware problem but the Desire did not fall down or sth like that...
When choosing trackball or volume key for wakeup in the settings, the display always switches on and off. Power button still causes a hard reset.
I have a head unit where the volume knob also acts as a power button when pressed and puts the device on stand by. When I put press the power button, the screen goes blank. The next time the unit boots up, the wifi is disabled. I have to go into settings and turn it on. Is there a way to prevent this from happening or is there a why to turn on wifi automatically on every boot?
