I installed an app that allowed me to change the colours of the buttons on the phone, its called SoftKeyZ I think. After I changed the colour and restarted I started getting an error saying com.android.systemui has stopped unexpectly, but once I started getting this error, my screen became unresponsive to my touches. I pressed the button at the top of my phone which turned off my screen and now I can't get my screen back on... Tried booting into recovery, nothing happening. My phone vibrates randomly every now and then.
I need help... Have I just bricked it?
EDIT: My phone is still on, I can hear noises when I press the volume up and volume down keys
I have an HTC One M8 GSM
FIXED NOW

Guys, need help... can't figure out if it is a soft or a hard problem...
Have had SX66 for 3 years. Almost never a problem (except for occasional thing when people could not hear me, I could hear them, but after soft reset that thing usually corrected itself).
However, just recently got a real problem.
- Can't power it off. Power buttom only works on powering on, but not on powering off.
- At the same time, the volume window pops up (with two volume sliders, "on", "vibrate", and "off), and the left slider automatically slides down on its own, preventing me from accessing anything else. When I try to do something else, go to Programs, or else, this freaking Volume window keeps popping up, and left slider keeps going down and stays down there.
When I try to increase volume, it keeps going down right after I raise it. And the volume window is almost constantly popped up.
From time to time, it disappears, allowing me to do something for several seconds or even minutes, but then pops up again.
Yesterday, I even managed to do something for several minutes without it, and even managed to turn SX66 off, although I had to press the button for a second longer than usual to turn it off. Today, no luck, can't power it off. If I press it for a bit longer, it just goes in "dimmed" screen mode, but stays powered on.
Any advice?
Thanks.
I guess, I'll have to try to clean the power button and volume slider on the side. Looking for good disassembly instructions. Found one, but more would be appreciated...

I have the same problem. I was starting to think that there is no way to turn of BA . Any help?
I have the same problem, only that mine is a HTC touch dual (niki).
the volume screen keeps popping up, and does a "volume down" command... sometimes it goes away, sometimes it comes back...
:S
Ive got a similar problem ive upgraded my BA to wm 6.1 (Xplod) the problem that i am having is that i cant seem to power it off..only way that im able to do that is by removing the battery..when i keep the power button pressed only the backlight turns off but no the phone..How to i power it off?
and secondly ive a problem with the keyboard..while writing some times i press a key and it keeps typing that for example i write s it keeps writing ssssss or giving spaces untill i press something else...is this a software issue or a hardware issue..cant seem to figure it out
I know this thread has been a while but if anyone has the same problem, you'd probably be interested about what i did.
well i had the same problem of the volume going down by itself and the volume icon pops which basically lets you do nothing.
tried all the approaches thinking it was a software issue. but i finally went nuts and took my torx screwdriver, opened the blue angel and tore off the part in the motherboard where the outer volume lever is attached to.
It worked.
So if you could with the fact you wont a direct volume adjustment at the side, you could probably try it
Ive had this issue for over a week now. Often when I need my phone and turn it on from the Power/On button at the top, the screen stays black, it doesnt turn on. I can see the bottom hardware buttons light up and the touchscreen seems to work, I can feel the haptic feedback when pressing the screen... Assume its a connection issue - anyone had the same problem?
I have the same issue, but just turn the lock on again (hardware buttons turn off) and unlock the phone, and then the screen comes on.
Help!
This has gone really bad now! Ive tried find help on the net, but nothing so far!
I have removed the SD card, Sim. Tried with and without. I have hard and soft reset the Desire severeal times. It works well for a while, but the problem kicks in sooner or later.
Pressing the power button the buttons light up, the screen vibrates but its black, not turning on. I tried to unlock it, but without any help.
Hate to take it to T-Mob and be without a phone for another 2 weeks...
Im trying to make a hard reset by pressing the volume down + power (also the alternate press home and back and then Power). Even this is not working... is it totally bricked now?
With the Monday Bankholiday, will be ages before I get my Desire back. Awww!!
If anyone has any idea how to help, appreciate it alot!

I had the same problem with mine but in my case I dropped it on the floor but the screen hadn't any visible problem and the buttons below worked fine and the notification LED told that it worked. I sent it back to HTC and they replaced the screen under warranty. Tell us if you found another solution.

My Desire now been few days at T-mob repairs.
So far my repair log states (phone still not returned):
- Replacement - Main Board,TMEU,English-UK,GBR,HTC,Regional IDLow,Brown,w/ SIM Lock,BRAVO-O3
- Software update
- Screening
- Adjustment
I just wonder if the Sotware Update is Gingerbread or not...?
My phone just started acting up really weird. Whenever I would graze the power button (not even when I push it in all the way) the screen would lock and sometimes immediately turn back on. Some times the power menu would come up. Other times it would just restart and go into this weird loop where the screen would be black, the phone vibrates, and the LED just flashes. Does anyone know what I should do about this? I was using CM9, but this happened pretty randomly so I don't think its a software issue.

Try flashing a different ROM. There may a bug or something on that ROM that could be doing that.

You just got a malfunction power button. It happens a lot. You need to call samsung/tmobile for warranty service.

Hi Guys,
Recently my screen has stopped working. The screen remains black but I know the phone is still working because when I press the power button the menu buttons light up. I am able to fix the situation temporarily by doing a soft reset, holding down power button for 10 seconds, and screen will turn on, but later my phone screen stops working again.
BTW I am on Android Revolution HD 9.7.2
Do any of you guys know what I should do?
Thanks.

Sounds like an bad display...try to get it to service if u still have a warranty
I think it could be related to your custom rom. You should try a different rom or go back to stock rom before sending your hox to repair. If screen is booting up properly when you did a soft reset, it sounds more like a software problem for me than a hardware one.
UPDATE It turned on automatically after 2 days. Freaky stuff :/

Hey everyone,
I have a HTC One V (Primo U), running Shpongle 4.2.2. It was working fine until yesterday, when I woke up after a nap and failed to turn on the phone's screen. Pressed the power button, but the screen won't wake up. Held the power button for 10 sec, phone restarted (I know this because of the vibration) but the screen remained dark. Called my cell, and it was ringing, but nothing on the screen. Now it's lying on my desk, with the notification LED blinkng (because I have missed calls).
Even the touch is working, because I tried swiping in the right area to answer a call and it worked, even though I couldn't see jack.
I held the Vol Up while restarting the phone, it went to bootloader (I'm guessing), but the screen was dark.
Is there any way I can save my cell

Did you broke the screen?
