I am trying to find a way to turn off my HTC desire with only one press on the power button. Currently, after a long press on the power button, I have to choose shutdown and then confirm shutdown.
Thanks in advance
I'm not aware of any other way to do this, though it may everntually be part of a custom ROM.
Unlikely to ever happen unless rooted however.

Hello,
The first thing you can do - go to Settings, then Applications, find HTC Sense and delete it's application data. If it doesn't work try to wipe everything (all your data will be lost)
Turn the power off. If your HTC Desire is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
Hold the Volume Down button
Press and release the Power button
You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock
Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button
Press and release the Power button
Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO
lost, so make a backup/sync your contacts).
Do you run a custom ROM?
there are now 3 different threads about Sense restarting on the same page.
Maybe you'd like to search?

I have just had the unfortunate wake up of my Desire power button not working, wonderful way to start the day.
I'm going to take it down to Telstra today and try and get it fixed under warranty, I don't believe that I have dropped it or let any water into it, but I'm worried that they'll say there is water damage and it won't be fixed under warranty (I found a few forums saying similar things)
What I'm hoping is an app or hack that will allow me to use another button as the power button. It is rooted (T-Mod) but I can't get into the bootup screen as I can't hold the power and volume button.
Any ideas or am I stuffed?
Just like the tittle How can I do that with HTC One X? You can turn off other phones completely by turn it off and remove its battery. But since the One X's battery is unremovable. How can I turn it off completely? Thank you
Btw, I am new in this thread, so excuse me for being a noob Thankz

I couldn't find a way to power down the device via the hardware buttons, but there is a way to force a restart, after which you should be able to boot into fastboot/recovery and fix whatever issues you're facing. Subsequently, you should be able to shut it down from your ROM's power menu.
From the HTC website:
If HTC One X does not respond when you touch the screen or press the buttons, you can still restart it.
Press and hold the POWER button for at least 10 seconds, and then release it. HTC One X then restarts.

when you hold down the power button, you get three options. top one is power off, middle is airplane mode, bottom one is restart. the top one is the one you want and is the best your going to get as like you say, you cant remove the battery from these phones. dont see why you really need too either other than if the battery dies.
just hold the power button for 5-8 secs and a menu will appear.
Turn off fastboot in Settings. Press and hold the power button with volume down held until you get into the bootloader and select "power down"
Just another method of powering off completely.

After accident with water normally I have to asap turn off phone and remove battery. What to do with OneX? I would like to know solution before not after such case.

That is not possible. The quickest is via the menu apperaing when holding the powerbutton. You could download an app allowing you to power down the device via a shortcut on the homescreen.

Hello,
My HTC One M8 power button suddenly went unresponsive yesterday - Nothing happens when i click it to turn on/off the screen or even get the power menu up. Sometimes it seems to be stuck (Pressing the home button triggers the screenshot function (Power + home ))
The button itself does not seem stuck or anything and i get normal response when clicking it hardware wise.
I already tried restarting which didnt solve the problem.
I'm running stock rom, unrooted version 2.22.401.5
Any idea what might wrong?

My PC currently suffers from the same button stuck issue. All I do is power it off and keep pressing the power button something like 20 times gently and continuously. Give it a shot. Make sure the button is clean in the cut outs and do the same trick to your button. Make sure you [DONT] power off the device, as there's a chance of never booting up; just some friendly advice. :good:
Sorry to bump this, but might be helpful if anyone else gets the same problem.
I sent my HTC One M8 to repair where they replaced the power button - Everything seems fine now.
Hey all!
My HTC power button auto press , it happens while the phone is on standby and while using, it happens on stock ROM and also with lineageos16,
The phone runs twrp and rooted, currently running lineageos16
Is there any way to disable the button and use double tap on the screen instead?
Any other idea of how to fix it will be much appreciated
Thankyou very much
