Isn't it a case of simply holding the power button, without touching the volume button?

U have to push power button and volume up button at the same time to work. And think: If an app lags and u can't get the screen working? U can't put out the battery. This is the only exit if u don't have any PC and USB cable.

You can simply hold the power button. I've done it loads of times.

It doesn't work in lockscreen.

Just did it and works fine. Simply hold the power button.
Although the ROM you are on possibly does not have it.

I've tried it only on Sense ROMs, but it also works with AOKP/CM9 I think.

Indeed. Aside from the boot combinations that's about it.
Epic-ly tapped from my Galaxy SII
Hold search button for voice commands.
Now we're done
well if were gonna go there, hold home for recent apps
and i wish holding back would kill current app like in MIUI
Menu key opens menu (in apps that support it).
The volume rocker obviously controls the volume... And if you hold the volume down it puts your phone on silent with vibration.
Lol... Now were done here.

I did this while trying to respond to this post and my phone suddenly rebooted. I'm not sure what I did wrong
Home brings you to the home screen when in an app.
And we're done

volume up and power until phone turns off and go into recovery
volume down and power until phone turns off and go into odin

Some ROMs allow for holding volume buttons to change tracks. I think we're done now ;p

heres a hidden one...tapping the power button turns the screen off. techwire news just announced a juicy little tip, tapping power button one time while screen is off will actually turn it back on thought id pass these new tricks on.

Holding menu button pulls up the keyboard in certain apps. AND now we are done.

Well, if you're going to get into the soft keys, holding Home brings up recently used apps and task manager. hold the search brings up an app selection including Sound hound if you have it installed.

Does anyone know if there is a way to manually assign something to a long menu press on stock? I know you can do it with CM7, but I haven't found anything for TouchWiz.
If your phone is on and you have cwm installed you can press and hold the power and volume buttons together and it will take you straight to recovery.

But if you press home first it would make you go back home.
Where as, when you press power first, there's a delay and then quickly press home to screensot. Or not you lock the phone.
LOL
Hahaha
I hate the feeling when you discover something cool then everybody knows about it lol

[Q]Apps for waking a phone with a broken power button?

So my power button is fried, and my replacement gets here on Monday, but I cannot live with a broken power button. So, any suggestions for app(s) that wake the phone using the volume key or something?
Bump. Need some help. D:

I'm running cm10 and under Settings» lockscreen» Screen Security there is an option to unlock the screen using the menu key (hard key on far left). Just tried it out, works flawlessly. Unfortunately I can't help you find the app you need and flashing a rom without using the power button may be problematic. Best of luck to you!

I would love to get CM, but the only problem is that since my power button is stuck, it's gonna be a pain to flash. And, not only that, as it is right now, since my power button is stuck, I was able to put it into ODIN mode and restore to stock unrooted to take it in, but I'm afraid that I might flash, and then the power button magically un-sticks, and then I'm screwed, cause I can't unroot it. Anyways, just today and tomorrow left, so not so bad. I actually think I can take it.

Just press power and home button in the same time and hold it for 3 seconds in 4.0.4 tw roms. Simple
If you get the task manager thing, that means your doing it wrong and not pressing it in the same time.

Obviously this guy can't read... but if he did I would like to know how he got the power button or the home button to lower the volume
Sorry I just rush read. I figured you'd mention Vol - and Power. But the new bottons worked. Thanks for the help and my apologies for the mistake.

[Q] Can't boot into recovery? Any solutions?

Hello XDA fellas,
Earlier, I was browsing in the S3 section, and someone has ported the S4 camera apk for S3, so without hesitation, I flashed it onto my phone.
Immediately when I reboot, my phone wouldn't go past the boot animation, so I thought... Okay, I will just flash my nandroid backup then.
But what I found out now is giving me a heart attack, my phone doesn't go into recovery, instead, it reboots if I hold down Power + Vol Up + Down for more than 4 secs... so fine... I went to Odins and reflashed CWM with a Stock Rom, but it's still not getting past the boot animation.
If anyone has any solution to this... I would appreciate it if you can share with me what you know.
Thanks.
You need to hold home, power, and volume up at the same time

Recovery: home, vol up, and power, doesnt matter what order press at the same time.
Download mode : same as above except you push vol down not up.
