My idiot brother spilt sweet tea all over my phone, but I took it apart and dried everything, so now it works great, except for one thing, the power button is stuck, not the physical button, it clicks just fine, but the power button doesn't work(doesn't shut off the screen,show power options, and I can't turn off my phone completely) is there anyway anybody can tell me what I can do to fix this so it works again?

Flashed a rom that went well. Only to find the Trackball and menu button now act as volume buttons. The volume buttons do the same as normal. Wiped everything but still the same. I know its not the Rom.
Anyone heard of this before and has a solution?
Help me please

At first you should say which rom you flashed..
It was the NeoPHYTE rom. But since I have tried cyanogen and modaco but no difference to the buttons. Quite annoying. Have tried the Bricked fix but made no difference either. Searched and found just one other instance which the user had not modified phone in any way.

I had that problem after i dropped my Desire in a glass of Tia Maria and coke. My trackpad started to die slowly. Menu button was messing with volume and the trackpad swipe would just make volume go down.
Eventually my trackpad died totally and all is normal now. Has your device come into contact with water AT ALL. Even slightly?
No not at all. Thought I would try a new Rom and all went well and that was it. Now in recovery I have to hold menu and push Trackball to select or it selects and straight away goes back as it does both commands. Selects and volume down at the same time. The menu button acts as home and volume up at the same time.

Hi, i wondered if someone here can help me with my htc desire, i purchased it like this by the way. When i insert the battery and power the device it goes straight into bootloader mode but im unable to select the options using the volume button, is there a way to exit this mode? or is it possible i can use the volume keys of the handsfree headset (i dont have) in case the phones volume buttons are faulty?
Here below is a pic ive taken:

Your input would be highly appreciated, thanks!
Have you removed battery and try booting up again?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
hi, yes i have, as soon as i put the battery in and press power it automatically goes into bootloader mode without even holding the back key, which is puzzling..
Did you buy it from a shop? Take it back if so. Is there any movement in the volume buttons or ate they stuck down?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
It could be that it has water damage and that is causing the volume down to be pressed by itself all the time..
i compared the volume buttons with a working desire and they feel exactly the same
Is this a new phone?
If so - return it.
This happened to my phone too, which was bought new. Looking around it does appear to be a hardware problem and needs to be sent back for repair/replacement.
Hey. I have a big problem with my HTC ONE X. When I put it in my pocket it restarts because if you press the power button for over 5 seconds it hard resets. I read somewhere else that the combo for hard reset is the volume and power button. Is this true? If yes why my HTC ONE X resets only with the power button? Can I change it somewhere? Is very annoying because every time I put the phone in my pocket then next time I will unlock the phone it will request my SIM unlock code. Soooo annoying.
Thanks
Long pressing the power button forces the phone to abnormally restart, and the combo takes the phone to bootloader mode.

Oh there is nothing to do about it Just keep it always in my hand I guess.
Press the power button for 10 secs, the phone will have a force restart, which is helpful when it freezes. You can use a cover which makes the power button harder to reach, so it doesnt get pressed when in your pocket.

If you want to keep it in your pocket, make sure the power button faces up

It is a solution, when you don't have a silicone case as I did, and has the same problem. When I was sit at my ofiice, or car, the power button was pushed, and surprise...restart!!!
I like HOX, but I don't like where they've put the power button!!!
abnormal reset
hiya guys
how about when the handset has not been sitting in your pocket and has been on charge in a location where there has been no chance of the powere button being interfered with, just happened to me 5 mins ago.
cheers
Hello,
Sorry for my bad english, but I need help..
My HOX was charging like every evening, when I suddenly recognize, that my phone vibrates every 15 sec. I watched on my Phone and I saw, that it boots to the "htc quietly brilliant" screen and then it turns off. When I press the Volume down button, it goes into the fastboot menu, then changes into Hboot, then bootloader and then it turns off and on....
It is possible that the Power button doesn´t work corectly?
My Phone is rooted and I Run the Renovated Rom Final 2...
When it is a Hardware issue, i have warranty??
And when not, what can I do?
Thx for all who will helping me.
Greeting, Tobias
Could be that the power button is locked down somehow.
Take some double sided tape and try to pull it up...

Hi everyone I have a problem with my xperia play which has left me without a phone. As many of you may know about the problem you get when you have a faulty flexcable, well that happened to mine and we tried fixing it, it seemed to of worked but now when I try to press on my power button, it won't press down. I'm sure I know it's because inside the phone where you press the power button it had a small kind of black stick " I would say the motherboard, maybe I don't know" inside the power thing inside the phone. So basicly, when I try to press on the power button, nothing will happen, it won't press down or turn the phone on. Does anyone know how I can fix this or buy one of them small stick things? Any help would be great thank you
