When I put my TP2 in standby with the powerbutton it has started to turn itself on after appr. 10 seconds. Then it is on until the battery is dead, the automatic backlight off does not work.
It is not like this all the time but when it has started I cannot stop it. Everytime I push the powerbutton it starts in ten seconds. Soft reset does not help either. It stops when it feels like it I think. . .
Have tried hard reset three times but it starts again.
I think it started with the latest rom update but I am not sure.
No one that heard of TP2 turning on itself?

I flashed my LG Optimus P500 with the Oxygen 2.3.2 rom yesterday, and it had been working great. I spent a few hours customizing settings and getting acquainted with the layouts and everything. I'm pretty sure I rebooted it at some point.
But then, about 6 hours after flashing it, I held down the power button and pressed reboot (after opening a bunch of apps that I didn't want to bother closing. Once it shut off, it didn't come back on automatically, so I tried to manually power it on. It didn't come on. So I plugged it in to charge. The battery level was at 7 or 8% when I did this. Then when I tried to power it on, it just showed the battery charging that typically comes up when it's off. I held the power button for a few seconds and it booted up as usual, but when I spent a few seconds on the home screen, it went back to the Oxygen logo for about 10 seconds and came back to the screen lock. Since then, it keeps power cycling on its own. I can't keep it on for more than a few seconds. Sometimes, it gets stuck at the screen lock and I can't even press anything on the touch screen or the power button, and I have to do a hard reset.
I tried booting with no SD card and the same thing still happens. Should I reflash it? Any help would be appreciated.
I am experiencing this issue since the last two days, the cell would turn off automatically without any warning and will not turn on or charge for some time which can be a few seconds to hours. Here are my observations :
1. The phone will turn off when its screen is off. I have tried charging with the screen on for 2 hours and it didnt turn off as soon as i took off and put it on stand by it turned off again in a few minutes
2. Firstly the cell will not turn on neither will it charge once it shuts itself down, but when it does turn on it will display htc logo then turn off again. you will have to try turning it on a couple of times till it finally turns on. After turning on the phone will again shut down in matter of minutes. also date and time will be reset.
I have tried factory reset but didnt work out. Also vol button + power button combo doesnt work when the phone is not turning on. I have checked fourms but none of the described methods seem to work.
Any clue what might be causing it and how can it be solved. Thank You
Okay I will try to sum this up. My S3 was working fine and everything randomly I noticed issues with battery calibration It would be 100% then I would calibrate it and then unplug and then I'd instantly drop to 85%. Thought It was a battery issue and made a point to get a new one later. Then it kept working for another month or so then It started really screwing up the shutdown menu would randomly pop up and I'd back out of it.
Then randomly 3 seconds later the phone reboots. And it would keep doing that randomly I thought it might be a power button issue. Then as time goes on it got really bad to where it would simply reboot and not make it past the bootloader, It would not "reboot" more like a complete shutdown then I'd have to power it again and have it do the same thing. Seeing how I could not even make it past the bootloader I got a new battery, waited a week for it and then I put it in and the same issue happened. It would not get past the bootloader.
So I kept trying and trying and trying and it finally booted past that. And it stayed on for a whole night. I did everything on it I normally would and it was working great. Then the battery was getting low so I plug it in and was going to calibrate it after it was charged, I go back to it and it's dead again won't get past the bootloader once again. I'm completely out of ideas on how to fix this I pop'd off the button and blew in there and the button seems fine and everything still no change. I also can not get into recovery. It trys and loads but then shuts off. Anyway if anyone has any ideas on what this is or how to fix please help! I need my phone back! Thank you.
I'm running MOAR Lite version.
UPDATE: Took the phone apart and took a close look at the button it looks 100% fine...I saw a video on youtube that requires you to complete tear the button off and it works. But I don't know if the button is my main cause of this issue or if it will actually work. Some says it works, some says it does nothing...Please let me know thanks...
UPDATE 2: It will show that battery with spinning circle in it for like 1 second then turn off again. (When it is plugged in)
That's odd. But when it comes to the power button, dismantling and what not 90% of the time will show 0 issues. It will look perfectly fine when it's not. You playing with the power button I assume were pressing hard and normally to try testing it. It's a common issues on this version of the S3 to have faulty power button and you would need to get it repaired. Odly even slightly atmospheric changes can cause it to act different at different points. Some days it works fine, other days a very slight brushing over can cause it to screw up and trigger a manual shut down (holding for like 10 or 15 seconds).
Assuming that it is the power button, or to try, just do a variation of things to the power button itself. Use your finger nail to jiggle it around with different pressures. During boot if it shuts off, it could be the power button internally stuck, just jiggle it around.
This is all I can think of unless you bring it in to get repaired.
I was encountering the exact same problem. I would try to get into download mode and it would sit at the "Downloading" screen for about 5-7 seconds then the display would go blank. It won't make it into recovery either. Based on the above recommendation I took the whole phone apart and sprayed a lot of compressed air directly on the power button mechanism and the plastic case pressing the button in. I didn't see anything broken with the button when I did that.
It seems to be working now, I can boot into my Rom. Don't know how long this fix will last.
I was using FlareM stock kernel... With Bear N Russian Os for more than a week without any prob.
It was midnight i left my phone charging. I woke up and used my phone for normal usage.
The next morning double tap to wake my phone. The screen awake but nothing was showing up it was blank
DT2W was working but the whole screen was blank. Black Screen Flash. In curiosity i thought i have to restart. I forced power off my phone.
After a few seconds i start my phone. Phone gives a gentle double vibrate. But its blank nothing at all is showing. The screen is total blank. No boot screen, i cant go Recovery.... Just Blank, Nothing.
When i start it just vibrates.
Computer detects USB when it Vibrates. After awhile its gone.
The vibrate comes up every aproximately 5 minutes. Keeps soft double Vibrate every 5 min, i guess its restarting by itself until i press the power button again for 10s where it switches off.
Please give me a solution. I'm so confused how could this happen overnight
Owh, And i tried Solution where we need to re place the 3 wires above battery. Not working.
No charging indication too since this prob occur.
:crying:
Do you think i should try this Method?

This is a strange one.
HTC 10 2PS6500, Android 8. Has been working fine. Today I took the phone out of the pocket, to find that it's been turned off. Strange, I know the battery was almost full, so it's not a power down due to low battery.
Tried to turn it on with the power button, didn't work.
Held the power and volume up + down at the same time, a few seconds later the phone vibrated and powered up. Battery at 92%. No sign of what might have happened. Phone was working. I wondered what happened but soon forgot about it.
A few hours later, I charged the phone back to 100%. While using it, the screen timed out, when I pressed the power button again, a message popped up saying "HTC recovered from an abnormal reset, send it to HTC" or something like that, and it tells me to tap it twice to send. I tapped it twice, the screen came up. I have the option of Send to HTC or Cancel. I pressed Cancel. The screen froze after that.
Buttons are unresponsive. I pressed the power and volume buttons to reset it, it went black.
Since then I have not been able to get it to respond.
Power button alone - nothing. Tried even holding in excess of 1 minute.
Power + Volume Down - nothing. Held for 10 seconds, 20 seconds, over 1 minute.
Powr + Volume Up + Volume Down - nothing. Held for different durations of time, no difference.
Connected it to a charger, no response, the light up top where it lits when charging does not light up.
It's completely unresponsive. No boot screen, no vibration, nothing at all.
Any idea what else I can try?
well some new development...
I was trying to do the hard reset on the phone periodically. Sometimes with the charger plugged in (but no light on top indicating it's taking any charge). A day later, I was doing another hard reset (not expecting it to respond) but it vibrates and boots up. Since then it has been behaving normally. Strange that battery was at 21%, when it was at 80% when the screen froze. I charged it to 100% then backed up the data while I had it on.
I got about a day of usage out of it, then while I was on a browser scrolling down on a web page, the screen froze again. Battery at 75%. After trying to reset it, the screen went black. Since then, no response on attempts to hard reset.
I have a feeling if I leave it alone for a day and try it it will come back alive.
Doing a search on the net yield nothing except I did see a post someone made saying after the screen froze had to wait till the battery drains 100%, then charge it back up and it will boot again. Is this what is happening? If it's bricked how is it consuming battery?
Anyone has any idea sure would like to hear it.
