hi guys,
I recently did something slightly different on my T700 that I've owned for almost 3 yrs now.... I enabled the finger print reader. After that, I noticed some odd behavior over the next few days, but nothing too out of the ordinary.
Anyway a few days later, the touchscreen stopped working. I have a feeling that enabling the fingerprint reader, had something to do with this. The home button works, so does the power and vol +/-. But swiping my fingerprint over the home button does not spark any response, and I cannot enter my backup password at all.
1) I have tried powering off using the power button - this does not work. The power menu appears on the touchscreen and I cannot select it.
2) I've tried holding down the power button for 10+ seconds - this does nothing, which seems odd. Normally this will restart any device after a few seconds.
3) I've tried "power + vol up + vol -" all simultaneously. This forces the device to restart, but the problem is still present.
4) Tried running the battery down, then charging up and turning on... but it's the same outcome as (3).
5) tried wipe data/wipe cache/factory reset... it has gone back to the start-up screen, in Korean.... but the touchscreen still does not work!!!
Please... help me..!!!! lol
Bueller...Bueller.... Anyone...

Hi. Currently in cwm. Just did a full wipe, and all of a sudden, my power button no longer makes selections in pwm
If I press the power button, the screen turns off. Pressing it again turns it back on. The volume up and down buttons are still able to navigate the menus, and the 4 buttons on the bottom of the phone all do the same as the power button: they turn the screen off when pressed, and turn it on when pressed again.
What can I do? Don't want to remove the battery as I don't have a rom installed
I have full wiped and flashed new roms hundreds of times. This is the first time this has happened
Many thanks
EDIT: Problem solved.
Just fixed the problem. Turns out I had disabled the back button. Disaster averted
MY galaxy s2 has problems with powering off every now and then. it was really bad at one point where all it was doing is turning on and rebooting right after. i had a custom rom for months and never had problems until yesterday. i couldnt go on recovery mode because it would always restart every five seconds. Now it seems to less frequent because i realized that it always reboots when i touch the power button once. Sometimes when i push the power button to take it off sleep mode, the power options pops up (recovery, restart, power off etc) so thats when i thought the power button might be the problem
Any guesses on what could be the problem?? If its software problems or power button issue.
P.S. reset my phone, re rooted it, and put a new rom darkside. It literally stays on until i push the power button. then it restarts five seconds later.
the power buttons seems to stick....I have the same problem, the phone is acting as if the power button is being pressed without being let go. When the power button is held indefinitely it just keeps rebooting over and over again. It occurs sporadically, but once it sticks..it sticks. I seem to be able to unstick it by slapping it against my hand but eventually it turns off. Its definitely a hardware issue and I will open up the phone right now to investigate. Ill write if I find anything useful.

So I have my htc one x for a year now. Rooted and custom rom, all worked fine.
The keypresses of the power button will be simulated very fast with no actual pressure on the power button. So after some minutes off locking and waking my device I pressed volume down and power button. Now sometimes it simulates the volume down and power button.
So sometimes it shuts off the device.
So I opened the device and there appears to be nothing wrong with it. I turned my HOX on and quickly unplug the ribbon cable from the power button off. But the power button is still pressed really fast, like 2 times a second.
I can't even go into recovery to backup, restore or flash anything because it will press the power button really quick and after 10 seconds it turns itself off.
It happened before on Slimbean rom. But the problem went away after some days. Now i got MIUI and the problem is back. So I don't think it is rom related.
My solution:
Is there a way to disable hardware keys in the recovery? Then i can try to restore my official RUU nand..?
I don't know what's wrong with my phone, but the screen display is messed up. Sometimes, the screen will display if I keep clicking the power button one-hundred times, but other than that it won't budge. Everything thing else works when I press the power button, the keyboard lights up, the home button and other buttons light, just not the screen. Like I said, I have to repeatedly press the power button so that in a slight chance, the screen might display.
I HATE THIS PHONE! What, do I do?

Need more info.
Can you access the recovery partition and it works fine? Access the recovery partition by powering on the device by holding down: Volume Down, Camera, and Power. Release when the hardware icons light up (down on the bottom: settings, home, back, search). You should see a menu appear after several seconds.
If the recovery partition does work fine have you tried a factory reset?
If it is still problematic within the recovery partition then it is more than likely a hardware issue. Possibly a problem with the power button?
Hi,
My Pixel 6 Pro screen went black, but I can still hear and feel that the phone is working. I used the volume up + power button to reboot it and now I touch the phone and I feel it vibrate as it's registering the touches. I also see at the bottom of the screen some white stripes flashing. It seems that the screen is damaged and I need a replacement screen.
Now my issue is that I can't seem to turn it off. As the screen is black, the only way to shut it down would be with hardware keys. But up until now, I haven't been able to figure out a way to turn the phone off.
Does anyone know how I can turn of the phone?
To replace the screen, obviously I need to turn it off first...
Usually long pressing the power button, but it may be different. As long as it gets fixed within a month or so it you can let it discharge until it auto shuts down. If more than a year old replacing the battery when repaired is a good idea anyway...
I tried long pressing the power button with no luck.
I tried volume down + power button for 20 seconds, didn't work either.
I tried volume up + power button for 20 seconds, this I think reboots the phone.

Power button only might take 20 or so seconds.
Otherwise just like it sit until repaired.
Power button + vol up + vol down. Keep holding down once you feel the phone vibrate. Takes you to the bootloader screen
The battery died.. so that's good!
Thanks anyways
