Yes, but do not try to root your device with hardware issues. If you get stuck in the splash screen, you won't be able to sort that out. This has been covered over and over again, so there is no need to open a new thread for this one.

[Q] How to turn the phone on without using the power button?

Hi guys,
The hardware buttons on the Wildfire S (power and volume buttons) have stopped working and I need to turn the phone on. The phone's running stock rom and it's not rooted. Is there any way I can turn it on without using the power button?
You can root your phone but.. without power buton maybe it's impossibe, you can give your phone to service. If your power button works, you can install a custom rom

[Q] Problem with loading into recovery

Hi guys I need help..
I was putting a custom hboot through bootloader. After i successfully did that i realized that the down hardware button isnt working... Now the only method to load into recovery that i know is pushing down and power buttons together.
Since down button not working I can not load recovery and so can not install any rom
Can anyone help me with this ?
Is there any alternate method to load recovery?
Pull battery out n put back in then press n hold back button + power, thats u in fastboot, then press power button on bootloader then use volume up button to scroll through menu to recovery.
Thanks for the help

Bootloader Issue

I am having a problem with my phone. I installed CM 11 on it via TWRP 2.6.3 but for some reason the flash didn't workout well and the phone was stuck in the boot animation. The problem is now I am not able to access bootloader because of a faulty vol down button. Before it would work some time, but now have tried it several times but can't do any thing. It just recognizes the power button press and turns the phone on and it gets stuck in bootloader. How do I get in recover to solve this problem.
Any advice?

Bricked Nokia N1

Hello, i have bought a nokia n1 with the chinese firmware and i have followed this tutorial for install the taiwan firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/noki...t3083115/page4 #39 .
When i have reboot my tablet after entered this command " dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/pci/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/by-name/system (/pci/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0 ", my tablet does'nt boot and stuck at powered by android. I can have adb and fastboot command but i don't know how i can restore my tablet. Anyone can help me ?
Sorry for my bad english and thanks you
If you have ADB access, you can run:
adb reboot recovery
After that you could reinstall using ADB sideload and this file : http://ota-service.oss.fc811.com/upl...&sn=L123456789
My N1 won't give me adb access, so I'm in a worse state than you

Thanks for mentioning. I have tried with volume down + power hundreds of times and my device refuses to go into bootloader. =/
I'm sure I could unbrick the same way you were able to, if i could just get into bootloader one time!

I had some trouble booting straight to the bootloader as well.
I don't know if this helps but anyway: After you power off the device, press and hold the power and vol- buttons. When you see the "Powered by Android" logo, let go of the power button but keep holding the vol- button. The tablet should boot into bootloader mode. I initially made the mistake of holding both buttons the whole time.

Thanks for the tip, i will try that. When I last tried, if I held any button at all, the tablet would never show the "powered by android" screen. It would only show it right after i released all buttons.
