hello, I already did some research but found nothing about it.
when the phone is with the screen locked and i hold down the power button appears the shutdown menu. This is a problem when the phone is in my pocket as it turns off or get in the airplane mode. There is a way to disable the shutdown menu when the screen is off(stand by)?
i´m using CM7 official nightly.

Hi
I am not able to get the device to go into sleep mode (blank display) by touching the power button unless its at the lock screen. Depressing the power button does nothing, other than to activate the quick menu unless pressed for a few seconds. The only time I am able to get the device to sleep via the power button is when the screen has timed out (based on settings) and before the screen in unlocked, otherwise I just have to wait for the screen to timeout.
I cant seem to find anything that would prevent the device going to sleep via the power off button, any suggestions?
Does this happen all the time or only while the phone is charging, as there is a setting that keeps the screen awake while the phone is charging:
Settings>Applications>Development
happens all the time, and I am aware of the stay awake feature during charging
If you're using a custom rom it may have something to do with that. Maybe the key isn't mapped or set correctly. Other then that, that's a pretty odd issues.

Sounds like some buggy program is keeping a wake_lock longer than it should. (The way games and ebook readers keep the screen lit/phone awake).
Had you installed anything new before this started?
Hi there,
I'm enjoying coolexe's ROM but I've discovered I can't turn my phone off.
Long press of the power button shows the menu with "Power off", "Hibernate", "Restart" etc. Selecting power off shows the first part of the shut down sequence (white htc screen, black screen, button lighting turns off).
Pressing the power button again (long press needed) does not boot the phone but shows pin entry screen first (ie, the phone did not shut down).
I first noticed this because over night my phone went to 0% battery while I thought it was turned off. The only way I've been able to shut it down properly is rebooting to recovery and powering down from there.
Its a minor problem but I'd be pleased to hear if someone can suggest a solution. The ROM is otherwise great!
Thanks

i don't use this rom, but i think sense 2.1 and above has fast boot feature
try: menu -> settings -> power, then make sure 'fast boot' is unticked
then when you power off the phone, it should properly be properly switched off instead of hibernating.
that worked - thanks!
(now I wish I'd figured that one out myself)
So I was using the hardware test on my T-Mobile SGS2 by dialing *#0*# and I tried the sleep mode test. After quitting the hardware test, I realized that when I press the power button when my screen shut off, I don't see the lock screen anymore. It jumps right to the home screen. Also, when I hold the power button down, I don't get the power menu, instead, the phone shuts off. I feel like the phone is still in the hardware testing mode, at least for the sleep mode. Any clue on how to fix this?
Edit: I did notice that every time I restart my my phone, the factory test service starts running.
Bad move. I believe the only way to fix this is factory reset....

Unfortunately that's the only solution I see to this.
Hello, I need help as soon as possible.
Today I was running with my HTC Desire listening to music and also using app MapMyRun. After all, I checked my phone, pressed power button and it restarted and entered to safe mode. I turned off safe mode, and then, when I was pressing power button to lock my screen it locks, but when I want to unlock it, then phone restarts (in safe mode it worked.). Moreover, volume down, menu and search buttons seems to be not working. I have done factory data reset.
Thanks.
Hey guys,
When I woke up today my phone had some serious issue.
I can turn the phone on and off with the power button, but when the phone is lit and I want to
lock the screen, the button does not work. I can hold it in and get to the power meny, but when
i just tap it, nothing happens...
Do any of you know why it occour? Havent done anything unusual...
Clearly the button works, because I can enter the Power meny...
/Thanks

are you trying to turn the screen off on lock screen? if so just double tap the screen
Is the phone stock or modded (rooted, custom ROM, etc.)?
Did you try to reboot device already?

Yes, the first thing I tried.
I'm not completely clear on the issue. If you just tap the power button while the screen is on, it should turn off the screen (which in turn also locks it). If holding the power button until you get the power menu, the choices should just be Power Off, Restart, and Airplane Mode. I don't think there is an option to lock screen on that menu on a stock ROM (and actually no custom ROMs that I know of).
Sorry for the delay on the answers.
It's not that i can't access the power menu, that works fine.
But if you want to lock your screen, you just tap the power buttom and that dosent work.
And I just found out that the screen NEVER shouts down!? It's always on.
When I reeboot the phone, the screen darkens, but all the icons on the desktop is visible and when i try
to tap the screen it acts like its off!?
Can't even think of whats wrong with this now.
The power buttom clearly works, but i can't lock or shout down the screen.
It's like its always on!?
I'm having this exact same issue.
My solution
Obviously this is much too late for the OP, but for anyone who might still stumble on this thread (it is still one of the top hits on Google for this issue), I got mine working again by rebooting the phone, after first disabling fast boot in the settings. (Settings > Power > Fast boot - I should note my phone is the HTC One Mini 2, but I assume the M8 isn't too different in this regard).
I had previously attempted rebooting from the power options (both restart and power off), but this hadn't fixed the problem.

The Fast boot option in Settings was removed from the M8 as of Lollipop.
Even when the M8 had this option, it did not effect "Restart" in power options. At least on the M8, restart is always a try restart; and Fast boot only affected the "power off" condition.
