alright guys my phone lock i tried pattern everything.. this is suppose to be a brand new phone from tmobile they just shipped to me recently.. reason im changing phone was because old one wouldnt charge any one have a solution before i brake it from anger
Why don't you try a master reset through the hardware keys?
Take the battery out and put it back in. When you turn it on hold vol up + vol down + power for 3 seconds and let go. It should let you wipe the phone.

I was trying to change the pictures on myFaves and my Dash froze. When I couldn't get the power button to power down the phone I pulled out the battery and put it back in. Now my phone won't turn on at all. What do I do? What can I do? The hard reset thing doesn't work (the thing with the 2 soft keys and power button). I called T-Mobile and they told me they'd send me a new one but I'd have to wait 7 business days to get it. No backup phone. If there's anything I can do PLEASE let me know before this new phone shows up.
Oh and the LED shows that the battery is fully charged too. What's going on?
Hey all, need some help here.
short story - can't power up my device, since power botton stopped working.
anyonw knows a way to turn on the device otherwise?
(tried reset by reset button, plug to pc, to charger..)
longer story- yesterday i realized i can hear only on speaker phone, so i thought it is a bug and tried to reset the device (soft) and realized the power button isn't working as well, which increased my suspicion of a bug, and smart enough i just unplugged the battery and since then can't turn it back on..
thanks
I have same problem several times, and I have no idea why these happen, any ideas?
When its happen, I try call from another phone to my, and nothing happen phone not ring, but I heard normal sound from calling phone.
I would see if I could get the phone to hard reset. I know you need to push the power button but it may work for this purpose just not tell the software to turn back on.
Hard Reset:
With phone off push and hold the send and end buttons while pushing the power button. Follow screen instructions.
If you cant then you will have to return it I am guessing.
Nothing
nope, i tried also to hard reset but nothing works, as time goes i get the feeling that the phone is ok but the power button is the one breaked.
i guess i have to take it to a lab sometime this week.
thanks anyways
I have a problam, mt screen in off, but the device is on, the 3 buttens are working below and the lights are working .
And sometimes the screen turns on fot a few minutes then turning off ahain.
When im reciving a call i can answer even tho i cant see.
And the phone is original, not rooted or unlocked.
try factory reset.
Can you tell me how to do it without screen?
keep pressing power + volume down button.
You will enter the bootloader. and You will find the option of factory reset there.
Don't leave the button even after phone restarts.
i have same problem
any soultion ????????
Had the same problem. It was the motherboard, so they had to replace it
Just take the phone to HTC repair.

Did you make a nandroid backup before u flashed viper one? If u did enter recovery by rebooting holding down vol down and restore your backup. Or flash your carriers stock firmware. Check the back to stock thread for info on that.
If that doesn't work it's a hardware issue and you should check your warranty and get a replacement.
Thank you guys for the help and for everyone coming together to come up with solution it is deeply appropriated my M8 was finally able to boot it up I plugged phone on the charger and directly to the power outlet on the wall and hold the volume up + volume down + power bottom all 3 keys at same time for 20 minutes and released all key at the same and left phone on charger over night for 24hrs and phone was able to boot up
I think you only need to hold Vol Up + Power for a few seconds and it should reboot.
Mine did the same thing once and that's how I got it to restart.

True. Power + Vol Up is a reboot, basically a simulated battery pull (for phones that have a removable battery.
Power + Vol Down boots into bootloader.
Power + Vol Up + Vol Down is not any button combo on this device, that I know of. This is perhaps a button combo for another device? Care should be taken to only do known button combos. Although I don't think there is any "harmful" button combo on the M8; on my old One X (EVITA) folks would mistakenly do Power + Vol Up to go into bootloader (correct combo is Power+ Vol down) which erased the ROM and sent the phone into Qualcomm download mode, which would probably give you a heart attack!
My power button is not working properly. I cannot use it to turn the screen on and off. The button still clicks when I press it but nothing happens. When I try to use an app (quick boot) to power off, my phone immediately powers back on. I can even hold vol up & down without pressing the power button and my phone will restart. Anyone have any suggestions outside of prying open the phone and replacing the hardware?
I would exercise your warranty... Assuming it's still in warranty.
Or attempt to fix it yourself, which would likely void your warranty opening the phone. ?
Thx for the thought. Chatted with HTC last night and they quoted me $140 since my boot loader is unlocked. FYI to anyone else out there, I forcefully poked my power button with my finger a few time and that knocks it back into service. For a while anyway. Gonna have to fake it when I go turn my phone back into ATT when I upgrade
