When i booted the phone i got a screen with a phone and some kind of triangle. I tried everything and took out the battery, now when it finaly booted only the physical buttons are responding. Both the screen and the touch buttons doesnt work. What shall i do?
Not rooted.
Take out the battery again, and see if you did not wedge the volume button in locked position perhaps.

At fist the volume acted strange by going all the way up or down by itself. Then the volume stopped working.
I tried rebooting but now I get stuck at bootloader screen without being able to go up or down the menu by pressing the vol buttons, nor being able to choose the Fast boot option by pressing the power button. The power button works when I remove the battery and put it on again, so I can switch on the phone.
Could it be because it might have got wet by the steam when I took a shower while it was in the room? Because the issue occurred afterwards!
EDIT: Fixed after removing the battery and putting the phone on a heater vent for 15 min!
Same issue

Hello everyone,
I received my cousin's phone asking me to see if I can repair it for him. I've tried turning it on and there is the initial vibrate, and thats it. No sound and no display. Nor do the buytons light up. It's like there is no andriod installed at all lol. I have mangead to get it to boot in hboot but again, there is no display. I don't know but could the screen be dead? Is there any advice that may help fix the phone?
I don't even know what firmware it would be running. All I have managed to do it install the HTC Bootloader while trying to root it.
Thanks all in advance
Simon
Go to hboot --> clean storage
if it not works:
did you rooted? if yes, with clockworkmod installed, you can make a hard reset and install other rom
Hello anmnimo95,
Can you tell me how many times I have to press volume - then power button as ike I said, my screen is completely blank, even on hboot mode. It doesnt look like the screen or the front buttons are powering on but the phone itself seems to power up as it vibrates to say its on.
I don't think this phone is rooted but I can't exactly see it as, like i said, screen seems dead

you have to press volume+power pressed at the same time for 3-5 seconds
sorry, i meant as in the hboot menu. I can get into it but i dont know how many time i need to press vol- to get to that option
right.. found the source of the problem. Decided to dig deep into the phone... LCD digitzer and the LCD screen ribbon cables are broken. Going to replace these in the hope that it will work. FINGERS CROSSED!
Does anyone know how to get the HTC One X out of Safe Mode? I tried turning off the phone and turning it back on...nothing and also the down button doesn't work at all, maybe a part of the safe mode.
Try running ruu in bootloader

when I get to bootloader only the up volume button works, I can get to my home screen on the phone, it just has that "safe mode" in the lower left hand corner and it wont allow 3rd pty apps to run at all. I downloaded the stock ruu from xda to my laptop. going to give that a shot when i get home. I just thought maybe there was a button combo to fix it.
Have you tried holding the power button for 10 seconds (or however long it is) to simulate a battery pull.
Other than that, maybe try turning on with both volume down + volume up held as it boots up?

this may be your clue. Sounds like a hardware fault with the vol+ button stuck down on boot.
Either that or your battery died while installing something.
Fixed
Pressing and holding the power button until the three lighted buttons at the bottom flaedh solved the issue for me. I also had a good press and release of the volume buttons first but presume it was the hard reset that did it as I'd tried messing with the buttons already.

I hope it is merely the volume key being stuck for some weird reason, fixing it is pretty straightforward: release the cover and carefully detach the screen. The volume buttons along with the power button will fall off. Try replacing them or perhaps turning the volume keys.
If the keys are not the cause you'd better hope you didn't void warranty.

I got it out of safe mode by adb reboot not sure if that helps but it worked for me...And not as easy as you make it sound to disassemble the one either... There are 2 youtube videos on one the guy is using guitar picks ot take it apart.

oh sorry didnt notice it was a year old I merely searched how to get htc one out of safemode this came up so i figured id say how i got out of it...doesnt really matter how old it is as long as the info is pertinent.
I was just wondering, not attacking

My phone was stuck in Safe Mode because the volume down button was stuck down all the time, if you can get the button out and restart your phone it will go back into normal mode. And yes I know the post is old but maybe someone is still looking for an answer
thanks for the info ignor the nego dude u helped me
The power button on my S3 (SGH-i747) is pretty messed up. When i'm not touching it, it decides to register a press and completely messes up everything im doing on the phone. It has such frequent reboots that i can barely boot into recovery. The only way i can actually boot is by holding the phone horizontally with the power button facing down. Is there any fix to this? I'm on CM10.1.0 so would flashing back to stock decrease the sensitivity of this button? Or is it necessary to fix at the shop?
Also i have a cracked screen, so im not sure it would be accepted under the warranty even if it's unrooted.

Hardware failure, repair it or get a new phone
nothing you can do, the flex cable that connect's the button to the board is either busted or shorted

I'm having the same issue.
There's absolutely nothing I can do? I thought maybe if I'd open up the device and tinker with it... maybe I can get it working.

Yes this is quite an annoying problem. If you're having the same problem, are you able to boot into download mode? I can't for some reason.

Something like this you don't want to boot into download mode. What if it resets while you're pushing a file? then your whole phone will be messed up.
I got mine to boot. My method is a bit unorthodox though.... i kept pressing the power button throughout the boot process up until the lock screen. Once it finally loads... i flicked the power button a few times really hard.... it seems to stay in the position but remains extremely sensitive.. as in, i dont even have to press it to turn off the screen.
sucks man... i think this is happening to a lot of power users. I'm literally one week past my warranty.

Yeah i didnt want anything to happen while anything is installing etc. I somehow got into recovery, but it shut down within a second. (thankfully the first option in cwm is reboot, so that saved me). I can't return for warranty because I'm rooted on CM10.1.0, which was why i wanted to attempt unrooting (but that seems impossible at the moment).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1753574
That thread seems to be the solution to our problem, but i feel that if i open it up, something worse will happen. Right now, the phone boots up fine when held horizontally (but shuts down ~2min later) and i can easily backup my data.
One strange thing that i've noticed with this problem that maybe isn't right. Normally , do you have to hold down the power button to shut it off? I always used to think that a power menu would show, THEN you could select shut down, but here, it just shuts down. The power menu flashes sometimes, but shuts down anyway. This may also have me believe that something other than the power button is the problem.

if you hold the power button for 5 seconds or more , it will skip that power menu and reboot. So this still sounds like power button to me.
thanks for the link, been searching everywhere... so fckin hard to search all the S3 threads on XDA. They need to consolidate

Were you able to fix your problem with the fix in that link? I seem to be having the same problem as you.
No, I ended up buying a new phone (I was going to upgrade anyway). I took out the power button, but that wasn't the problem. In a way, it was the button under the button that was sensitive. I would have to take out the motherboard to see the exact problem.

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.
