Hello there , plz help me. I am using this great phone for over a year now and didn't face any issue till now. But suddenly my power key is not working also when I pulled out battery and again inserted the phone starts without pressing power key. Now every time to wake up screen I need to plug the charger in or need to ask someone to call me on my phone. This is very annoying. Please let me know anyone has the same issue. Sorry for my English.

Hi everyone,
I'm posting this thread because I'm heaving a problem with the On/Off switch of my phone... Since yesterday it doesn't work anymore, so when I push it down, nothing happens...
Yesterday, the power-controll menu (the one who appears when you push the swith down for a couple of seconds) appeared now and then, and my phone randomly switched on and off, so I'm thinking this may be a hardware issue...
My problem here is that I bought the phone in a store that's far away from where I live, so I can't just go and bring the phone for repair... But in the meantime I can't turn my phone on... The only way I can turn on the screen is when I connect it to a power source or when someone calls me.
I've searched the interwebs for software that may help me (something like a button remapper, so that I could use the central button for example as on and off switch) but that's only for rooted devices, and mine isn't...
Any propositions ?

I think his phone was on, so the problem was that he couldn't turn the screen on.

Well actually yes, the device was on but it turned off because of the battery... Luckily, I managed to restart the device by plugging it into the power source and remove/putting back the battery several times...
I noticed now that my battery is draining really fast, the phone can't hold a day of normal usage
My power button has been unresponsive more and more. This morning my battery fell out and the power button is not working yet again. I took it apart and the button seems to function properly but it is unresponsive for some reason. The phone works fine other than the power button issue. I'm wondering if there is a different way to power up my phone other than the power button.
Thanks
Some custom roms will power on the device when you plug in the charger. There's also roms that'll let you wake the screen with the volume buttons (may even be an app for that). Sorry I can't name specific roms...I just can't remember which ones do it.

If the power button isn't working properly, take it back in to Sprint. It's under warranty.

As all galaxy models my ``Y`` has the same problem. with phone locked if you keep pressed the power button for 10sec's the device going to force restart. I mean that if you place the phone in your pocket and you don't know that the button is pressed the phone is turned off or offline and you may lose emergency calls.
Please help me to find a solution or to disable re-map the power buton ... thanks
You gotta edit the keylayout file - qwerty.kl. But I dont think it can be disabled. Its just a small key. Wonder how it gets pressed in your pockets.
Maybe you should try mobile covers?
Maybe you can change pockets. Lol.

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

Probably a decharged battery in the box. with the old firmware it wont charge while off and when you plug it in, it boots up and uses too much battery to keep itself on, so it shuts down. try holding Volume + , home button and then powering on. this should take u to the recovery, which uses less battery and might be able to charge up a bit.
Edit: HOLD (VOLUME + AND HOME BUTTON TOGETHER, THEN PUSH/HOLD THE POWER BUTTON) once it boots into a recovery mode, u can let go, MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOU TABLET PLUGGED IN.
If that doesn't work, take it back and demand a new one.
