Question Power button responds without pressing. - Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40

Basically, my mi 11x has developed an issue where touching the power button alone is enough to restart the phone and this is a problem because now the phone reboots if my hand touches the power button. it may or may not have anything to do with the update to 13.0.7 a couple of days ago.
Has anyone faced the same?

Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the touch response on the power button using setedit?

A friend of mine had the same issue but with another xiaomi phone, it turned out to be a hardware problem and the power button was replaced

Same thing happening to my Mi 11X.
It started yesterday then went to normal after some time. And it started again today.
I am on 13.0.8 MIUI version.
*Edit: It also got stuck in bootloop yesterday.

I experienced it a month ago. I rubbed the power button with my thumb and it did solve. Hope it doesn't happen again.

For me it was

It will happen again since it was the same behavioural pattern for me.

hey had the same thing happen a month ago and i read all you had to do was smack the button carefully and with force for some time. i did it gently but didn't fix it so i angled the phone to the edge of the table and gave it a repeated semi-beating. now the phone works perfectly. sounds crazy but give it a shot its worth it

It doesn't work for me, my phone keeps restarting when I do that

It was happen to me, and solve it with restarting your phone to "Safe Mode" and deleting unused apps & data.

Well AFAIK it is a hardware issue, like this happened to me 2-3 months ago, what I did was to rub a little, and temporarily it got fixed. But just yesterday the power button popped off and is just hanging with the fingerprint scanner wire.

Looks like a hardware problem...bcz long ago I've had this problem too, it was I think Xiaomi Redmi 11 Prime

Those switches are usually dome switches. They cost the manufacturer $0.01 per thousand.
It's a tiny bit of steel that sits on top of a circuit board and is covered by that matte black sticky sheets.
The problem is either too much peanut better jammed into the actuator, contamination under the little metal dome or else the dome has collapsed through wear.
I had a power button that had failed (through my own stupidity).
I pulled up the black sticky, removed the dome, cleaned the PCB, put in a dome that I salvaged from elsewhere and put a bit of black electrical tape over it all.
It worked fine.
Of course, there is the nuclear option...

I tried different versions of miui versions at last miui 13.0.6 don't have power button issue. It seems this power button problem causing due to miui 13.0.7 or above

I tapped around power button with a pen rapidly and it fixed the issue.

Screen Switches On/Off Continuously

Since a week ago my DHD screen started switching itself on every few minutes. The phone doesn't unlock but keeps lighting up which is annoying esp at night! I'm using stock 2.2.1 Sense so can't understand why this started happening. Reset or removing battery doesn't do anything either
Anyone else had this or found a solution?

I had a similar problem with my HTC Desire. I found it to be a problem with the power / lock switch on the top of the device that was getting 'stuck'.
Can you confirm if what your experiencing is the same as if you were to continually press the power / lock button on the top of the phone?
Yes, it's basically the same as the power button being pressed. I wondered if it might be stuck but it doesn't look any different or stuck..

Just out of curiosity, could the phone have been exposed to water at any point?
It's indicating to be a hardware problem since you have the Somebody on HTCPedia.com was having a similar problem and this seemed to solve their issue:
I had the exact same problem and it was (most probably) also caused by exposure to water: I had the phone in my pocket while cycling through rain and it all got wet. Since then, the power button got stuck, as in it was always pressed but sometimes was getting released depending on how the phone was held. For me, this resulted in the batter being drained in about 4 hours since it kept bringing up ShutXP.
EDIT: Do not use a flux remover (de-flux) solution/spray like I described previously (now deleted). In my case it worked for about 1 day and then then button was completely irresponsive which is a worse problem than having it always pressed (if you take the battery out, you can't turn it on).
I was inspired by a solution in another forum. I used surgical alcohol that yuou can by at any pharmacy. The higher the concentration, the better (I used 90 deg).
Take the battery out first !!!
Effectively, you drop a few drops of alcohol inside (yes, inside!) the phone through the small cracks around the power button. I used a pipette but dipping cotton in alcohol and then squeezing also works. Don't worry about dropping to many drops of alcohol ... it dries very quickly. I then blew in- and shook the phone strongly (this was important) to make the liquid advance a bit inside and also to dry it. You then need to leave the phone to dry. You can speed that up if yo put it under a desk lamp.
All solved now. Power button now works fine. What happened probably was that humidity/water created a short circuit, giving the same result as keeping the power button pressed.
If the above doesn't do the trick, you can try to unscrew the plastic shield that covers the button, remove the external button and access the real micro-mechanical button that is soldered onto a very small pcb. You give that one a good clean, rubbing it generously with a small piece of cloth dipped in alcohol. You can also try scratching the surface between the button's soldered pins since that's where a short circuit probably formed in the first place.
Hope you fix it.

Hope this helps
Thanks a lot for the help. This is why xda is such a great forum. From this I worked out it is the power switch and after playing with it and seems to be working on for now. If the prob happens again I'll try the alcohol trick above.
Thanks again

power button

Hi im having some trouble on my sgh i747. for a while the power button hasd been acting kind of glitchy, meaning that when i pressed it, it would turn on and off a few times, and all of a sudden it turned off and wont trun back on. It is acting as though someone is holding down the button constantly. should i replace just the button, or should i change the enitire motherboard. Or is there a way i can fix this without spending money. and if it comes to me having to change the motherboard, could you please advise me on a good website for geniuine parts. Thanks.
Had the same issue.. Bought new switches from eBay.. Searched YouTube for the how.. And while waiting opened it up and destroyed the power button. Booted using recovery, then downloaded screen off app. It's a work around until the new switch arrives

So do you think changing the power button in my case, would resolve my issue?
From my research.. Yes.. It seems to be a common problem

This is going to sound strange however it worked for me. I bought a G3 on eBay at a really good price to be used to play with flashing ROMS. The phone supposedly was acting as you describe. It was also supposed to have some slight water damage. When I received it, it seemed to be working ok. However I soon started experiencing the same symptoms as you. I did some Google searching and found a YouTube video with a solution that strangely enough happened to work for me. The solution was to rap the power button against the edge of a table or chair a few times. Did that and now the power button works. It has been working now for about four months. I now have a backup phone for a $115 investment.

[Q] Moto 360 Black Screen -Resolved-

So something quite unfortunate happened to me last night. I factory reset my watch since I installed a new rom on my Moto G, and ever since I did that, the screen is black. Nothing else. The power button isn't doing anything regardless of how long I hold it in or whatnot, and it's just not doing anything, it's a brick. It's not rooted or boot loader unlocked or anything either. When it place it on the charging dock though, the light at the bottom of the dock lights up so I know it's charging at least, but I just really don't know what happened to it. Do you guys think it's toast?
--Edit--
So I spoke to Motorola's live assistance, and if this issue arises for anyone else, hold the power button down for about 2-3 minutes and it should boot into the bootloader, from there you can either attempt a fastboot reboot command or a normal powerup.
I tried your solution. But nothing happened. I think i have the same problem. Mine won't show anything, but when i tried charging, the light on the dock light up. Do you have any other solution? Thanks

You also got yours from the states? I only know one other people who use the moto 360 and he also got it from the US. I'll check with him tomorrow. Can you check how much will it cost to ask for a replacement in Malaysia? Going there on middle of May, if it's cheaper, i'd rather pay the replacement there. Hehehe

I know it took a few tries for it to do that but at the same rate if you've tried it a few times then that's quite odd, It's also quite a pain how there's just one button to do it with. Hopefully you get it fixed, I really don't have too much else advice sadly D:

I think there can be three reasons for the black screen.
1. The watch has hung and needs the 2-3 minute bottom press as posted by the OP.
2. You use Watchface or Watchface Pro like myself. It has occasionally crashed on me. After several taps, I eventually have the menu come up and can get to settings/reset. I then have the default Moto face and can reselect Watchface. Hope this bug is fixed soon.
3. Hardware failure. LCD displays have a single backlight and if it fails so does the display.
I hope it's either #1 or 2 that you are running into.
this happens to me whene android wear crashes on the watch. i was able to notice the force close notification before it went to a black screen and did not respond until the battery died. once the battery was dead i placed it back on the charger and eventually it turned on. this has only happened maybe three times since i bought the watch at launch.

I've tried #1 but failed to force restart the watch. #2 seems not applicable to me since I'm using Facer.
[Solved]
Hi,
I faced the same issue suddenly (black screen) since yesterday, i came across your thread today trying to find a solution, and tried every solution posted here (e.g. holding 2~3 min on power bottom) several times, but no success!!
I put the watch at charging dock and the charging LED in the dock is ON.... but the watch is just showing black screen ... until i thought it might be from the USB cable... so i change it with its original USB cable which comes with it in the box (while unaware; i used a cheap USB cable from the market 2 days ago while organising chargers/cables in electricity outlet, without realising that i changed the USB cables), and once i used the original USB cable... it's started to work/charge immediately.
Solved

I hold the power button for 3 minutes, however nothing happened.
Soon after holding i put it back on the charger and it restarted itself and everything was perfect.
hope this works for you.
Yeah. I'm having the same issue. The only thing that allows me to turn the watch back on is to put it on the charger. Been dealing with this for a few months.
after I changed rom I can not associate my bike away bluethoot.
the Debug:
cached bluetooth device for device not found
E / bluetoothDevice (3177) getBluetoothClass () COD is 526 084
E / bluetooth Event Manager Settings (13790) Got bonding been changed fo Mac-addres wareble, but device not added into cache.
someone has this problem?
I have the same thing! Really frustrating.
If I put it on the charger there is nothing. If I put it in a "funny" way the light on the duck is on and I can even see the battery sign shown but it disappeared after a few seconds.
I used different chargers and cables and outlets in my house and other places - same thing.
I even tried a friend's charger (original moto 360 charger) but nothing.
I did try the "holding" (3 min is a bit much, no?) - nothing happens. I do have a blister on my hand from doing that 5 times
Any other ideas?
I bought this watch because I was curious and now i can't be without it. I will buy another one if there is no resolution.
I have the same issue. I put the watch aside for a few days (still haven't exhausted the battery), and then put it on its original charger, a few minutes later, the display come back! Don't know why, and don't know whether it will happen again...

Sudden phone screen issue

Hello,
I've had my A70 for almost 8 months now, it's been great and I never had any issues with it, no root, no ROMS, nothing out of ordinary. While I was using it yesterday night, the screen suddenly turned off, I was surprised because the battery was almost full, so I thought maybe I pressed on the power button by mistake, so I pressed it once again, only to keep looking at my reflection on the screen, I tried force rebooting the phone, no luck, OK google works, Face recognition also works normally, everything is working, but I can't see anything on the screen, I thought that it might be a screen issue, but I don't think it is anymore, because sometimes when I hold it in certain ways, the screen works but with apparent noise/flicker, or shows incorrect colors, I'd like to show you but sadly I don't own any other phone. Could it be a connector issue that can be fixed easily? and if anyone is in Germany, any idea how much a fix could cost?
Thank you.

Question Unresponsive touchscreen

Hello everyone!! Before one week my fingerprint sensor stopped working! After two days of that troobleshoot my fingerprint sensor settings all of a sudden disappeared. After two days of the disappeared settings my touchscreen turned unresponsive. I try many things to fix it but the only things that makes it responsive again is a hard push at the screen(lol) is there any other have the same issue? I'm thinking it's time for a replacement of my screen? Or is there any other solutions??

Most of the time, this issue happens due to hardware issue, the screen/power button ribbon cables might've got loose inside the device.
I think its easy to repair in service.
Looks like cable tape broken. If screen not damage try go to service
