1. I do believe that was caused by installed softwares,
2. try to remove all today plugins, wait 5 seconds, softreset, after 2 minutes (just to ensure
all processes are finished),
3. try to press the power button then again after 10 seconds, and see if that helps or not, alternatively,
4. try to remove the shortcuts fron the startup folder and try. If nothing helped, probably there is a confused registry. hard-reset for no choice(except you are expert in registry matters )
5. Remember to wait for 10 seconds before you reset the device after changes were made.

thanks everyone!! this problem happens occationally. SO i need a few days to see if the above steps work
Thanks for ur advice again though

Power button problem

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...
Greetings,

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.

Power button doesn't work after boot

So here's my problem, I can press the power button to start up my touch pro 2, but after the OS loads, it doesn't function to turn off the screen or to power off my device. So now, it just goes dim after 30 seconds but still stays lit and the only way to turn the phone off is to pull the battery. What can be done?

Witch rom do you use? What kind of cabs did you install? Other tweaks? Please be more specific so we can help
Stock Tmo Win6.1 rom. Nothing installed really, this problem was present ever since the fresh install. It can't be physical because the power button is recognized prior to OS boot, and I can get into the bootloader fine as well.
Maybe there is some software that can map the keys properly?
Try this program and see if it solves you're problem. I will let you remap you're hardware keys.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240
That program doesn't let me do anything with the power button. It doesn't even let me assign a power button FUNCTION to the end button. I don't know what's going on.
There are different restart programs you can install that will include an app. You should change the times for your screen to turn off as well. If there isnt' water damage take your phone in to the provider and you should be able to get a new one.

[Q] Boot loop with a difference...

Took my phone out of my jacket pocket earlier since I thought I could hear a weird buzzing noise every ~8seconds. Looked at my phone and can see it's stuck in a boot loop. I can't hold the power button to turn it off it gets as far as the HTC screen and then goes black. I've tried to get into recovery mode (just holding down the volume - button). It does work to get in there but I only have ~8 seconds before it goes black and reboots again, doesn't seem to be able to pic any of the different options in there though (with - or +)
This phone is stock O2 (EIRE) never been touched not even rooted. Anyone have seen these issues with HTC One X? :crying:
Is there any recommendations that I can do? (key combo) Hoping that when the battery dies it'll go away... doesn't feel to stable though!
I have an idea ...... turn it in for warranty right away
anything to try first?
Hi,
Try this:
Hold power button together with volume down simultaneously till the phone reboots. Still holding both buttons you should go to service menu. Then choose bootloader with using volume key down/up and when the bootloader is selected press once power button. You should go to bootloader menu, from which you select power off and press power menu.
Your phone should be power off.
Then try to press again power and volume down buttons till you gonna gain in service menu. From there you should find and select factory reset and press power button once.
Your phone should be resented and then just reboot.
If everything is correct your phone will be with everything reserved and also your data and settings will be gone, but at least will work. Then you should set again your settings and preferences.
Hope this could help to get your mobile working again.

Thanks dude, that almost worked... got a bit further after factory reset... went to the O2 splash logo and then back to beginning... actually tried it again before hitting reply, wanted to make sure that I actually had time to hit the factory reset before the phone rebooted (8seconds, less actually seems to be 2-3 seconds then a bit longer after...)
I've got a feeling the phone is/has overheated and resetting itself. I think it's rubbish you can't take the battery our of these!
Finally stopped rebooting, battery must be knackered. Will leave it for a while and then start a charge, think it's going into an O2 outlet Monday!
As soon as I started charging the phone booted up and back to loop...
Sorry mate ...like i said, warranty case

Brick maybe?

Hello there, I was installing Recovery using this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682, I only went up to the first part of unrooting the phone where it asks me to connect my and install te recovery, my phone after the root did not want to turn on. I tried using the Volume +/- along with the home key, nothing, it just vibrates and nothing. I tried pulling out the battery and the same thing happened, no matter what I did, it vibrates and won't turn on. Also when I hook it up to the charger and try turning on it vibrates and it keeps vibrating in loops, around 2-3 sec apart. What is wrong with my phone? Please don't tell me it's a brick, I just got it yesterday ;p

I think this kit is honestly the easiest way to brick your phone. There are simply too many options, most of them have no real use for this phone, and the free version never gets updated. Honestly think it's a bad move for people who are new to the game.
To get in download mode:
Start with the phone off.
Press and hold the home button and volume down button.
Press the power button until the phone vibrates.
Release the power button.
To get in recovery mode.
Start with the phone off.
Press and hold the home button and volume up button.
Press the power button until the phone vibrates.
Release the power button.
Release the volume up and home button when the blue text appears in the top left corner of the screen.
If these won't work, you are bricked. Time for JTAG.
I agree 100%. That kit seemed pretty helpful for some when this was still pretty new, but recently it seems there are more reports of failures (or worse) than successes. When you get this fixed I suggest reading all the stickies and then take it from there.
Good luck

[Q] LG Optimus G Sprint is stuck on android recovery system, screen is cracked?

My LG Optimus G is stuck on the Android System Recovery screen. I can move up and down with the volume bar but I can select anything because you need to use the soft menu button and my screen is cracked there. Is there anyway to get around this? I've tried holding power and volume down to reset it but it just restarts and goes back to the recovery screen.

The power button should be the select. Press up or down on the volume to navigate and press power when you are where you want it to be.
Is the recovery stock or CWM? The power button should work either way for the select. Hope this helps.
also if you are just trying to restart, try holding down only power for about 20-30 seconds, it should do a hard shut down, then when you press power to turn on again it should go to the system.

I'm not sure if it's stock, it says Android Recovery System e3. It says to hit enter to choose an option but hitting the power button wouldn't select anything. I held down the power down and it shut off and isn't turning back on.
my lg optimus g turned off and now it wont come on or hold a charge
Well where do I start, I love this phone and I have not had a single issue with it until yesterday, took my phone off the charger in the am walked out the door , started my car went to make a phone call and my phone was off , tried to turn it on and to no avail, so i took the battery out of the phone (mind you this was quite an experience taking the back cover off) took care of that unhooked the battery let it sit for 5 minutes and it came back on like a charm , well as the day progressed my battery eventually died , so im thinking no biggie right? wrong tried to turn my phone on and nothing at all , just a solid red light which eventually cuts off but thats only when you put it on a charger and does nothing no blinking lights no power nothing. So ive been online following a bunch of different steps and the only thing i could do was put the phone into download mode when connected to a cpu but the cpu doesnt seem to see the device nor does it have power , im trying to fix this myself if possible, im really not trying to pay for a repalcement phone or wait 14 days to get another one so ill try as hard as i can here first and see if i can get some help.. PLEASE!!!! HELP!!!

Did the battery die? What happens when it is plugged in and you hold down the power? (to attempt to turn back on)
