All hardware buttons suddenly stopped working! - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hope someone can help me with this, i went to bed last night and all i did was use opera and check my emails. I then pressed the top standby button to turn the screen off and went to sleep.
This morning i woke up and found i could not turn the screen back on. The home hardware button was lit up and nothing else was happening. Tried every button on it but the phone wouldn't wake up.
All I've done to the phone is hardSPL and have been running the Extreme topaz rom for the past 2 weeks happily.
I reset the rom to stock and no joy. I then did a hard reset and now its acting even weirder! After turning on, the screen is flicking between the phone dialing screen and the quick list screen constantly by itself!
Does anyone have any ideas? Its less than 3 weeks old!

So I've reflashed to stock rom and used the HARD SPL relocker and the phone is now only semi-broken. The rest of the hardware buttons are now working, but the power button at the top of the device may as well be dead. It has completely stopped working. it won't wake the device or turn off the device
This is a major bummer because the phone automatically turns the screen off after a minute and the only way I can get it back is to remove and put the battery back in. Looks like real bad luck for me. Back to warranty for repairs
Shortest time ever for a device to fail on me. Grrr.

Strange (and a little worriesome) behavior on my G1

Tonight my G1 displayed some very odd behavior. It was running normally and I pressed the power button to make it sleep and I set it aside. About half an hour later I picked it up and tried to turn it on by pressing menu. The phone gave no response other than lighting up the five buttons on the bottom. I tried sliding the keyboard out and the keyboard lit up as well, but the display remained black. Plugging it in via USB to my computer did absolutely nothing (no sounds, no notification light, etc.), and I got the same result when I plugged it into the charger. I finally decided to take the battery out in order to turn the phone off, and then put it back in and pressed the power button. The phone booted up normally, and now everything seems to be working in proper order. I am slightly concerned, however, as I have never had this behavior in the year that I have owned my G1. I am running Cyanogen 4.1.999 with the Hard SPL boot loader. I am unsure whether this behavior has anything to do with the mod and I am wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar. I do realize that if my phone is bricked it is my fault, and I want to determine if this was simply a freak accident or if I need to do something differently with the phone.
first of all if your phone was bricked you wouldn't be able to use it. as for your problem it doesnt sound too serious so if i were you i wouldn't worry about it. but if it does happen again reflash your phone and if it happens after that, pitch it to cyanogen to see if there is a problem with the rom.
I do realize that it isn't bricked now, but I am worried that this behavior could mean that I am pushing the phone too hard. I am mostly curious as to whether or not anyone else has experienced similar behavior from their G1.
Turn off compatibility mode in spare parts.
don't worry this is a common problen It happens to me all the time any hero I flash plays nice for about a day. and then boom no problems with cyan!
I had the same problem, but unfortunately my G1 is still not working properly.
In the morning, turning off the alarm I left the phone for 5 minutes. An attempt to turn it on did not work: there was no reaction on display, although the buttons were lighting up. I restarted phone taking the battery out and now I have following:
- keyboard fully closed: no reaction/black display, buttons are lighted up
- keyboard open: I can do everything: change ROM/make call/write messages/Internet/GPS/... - everything what is possible to do with rooted G1
- keyboard partially open (visible only lowest row with such buttons as ALT, SHIFT, SPACE): similar to 'open' but with changed orientation
Can anyone help/advise? Did almost everything: ROM changed, full wipe, recovery

Diamond reboot loop w. original ROM

hi there,
this morning, without any interactiom, i heard the vibration of my touch diamond restarting.(with original newest ROM from htc website that ran without any problem for several months). battery was about 80% yesterday evening.
but it wasn´t starting at all. after the HTC animation and the green windows mobile screen, it started again. after restarting for 20 minutes i took out the battery, put it in again and performed a hard reset as stated in the manual.
now, on the "rainbow" screen i get a message like
psoc diam stage_pvt 0x32
then i did the Volume-Up reset, and now i don´t even get the red version information in the lower right screen. as it doesn´t even start i cannot get an active sync connection.
any ideas? is my phone broken? i didn´t do anything special, and i wonder why it rebooted without interaction this morning.
any ideas what i can do?
thanks in advance,
jkersch
Mine started doing this about 2 weeks ago it woke me up in the middle of night while sleeping with its vibrator and start sound.
The only thing I have found is that my little reset button at the pen holder dosent work anymore. To do a hard reset i have to takeout the battery and then put it in, hold the volume key and enter key then power it to get it. Flashed by holding volume down and the power on, it hold for about 10min just enough to get the flash.
I managed to flash it once but it dosent help, it constantly reset at the thouch diamond screen. Some times i get to the green windows mobile screen.
As warrenty is out on my phone and ive given up and using another phone.

[Q] Broken Power Switch

Greetings.
Today the power switch from my Note stopped working.
I found a website that will replace it for an original Samsung one, but I would like to ask if anyone has a better alternative here on the US.
This is the one I got:
http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-note-power-button-repair/
Also, it is weird that now that the power button doesn't work at all, I have to take out the battery to "turn off" the phone. But when I put the battery back on, the phone turns itself on. Is that normal behavior?
Thank you in advance.
if the phone is working as usual, then instead of removing the battery to switch the phone off, use any widget from the playstore to power off the phone. this way it will power off fine. may be its because the power button is messed up.
After 14 days of having the power switch in a nonworking state, today I woke up, and lo and behold, the damn switch started the work again.
Now I can turn off the phone normally, everything is normal now.
I didn't do anything special, nothing at all.
Before, I couldn't turn off the phone even with apps like QuickOff, thats allows the phone to reboot, turn off and etc, so I had to take the battery out every time.
I have no explanation.
You got lucky there :thumbup:

So, I think it is just because the power button gets sticky. I was having a similar problem, except that it was working intermittently; sometimes it would turn the phone off, sometimes it would bring up the shutdown screen; and sometimes it would work like it was supposed to. Probably yours started working when whatever was making it stick got dislodged. What I did was just press the button REAALLLY hard for a while while the battery was out. It's been about 24 hours and I haven't had any problems yet, fingers crossed. Another guy in a different thread just wiggled it around. Probably if you take the whole board off you could remove the power button and reinstall it or something, though it seems no one has had to go that far yet. Anyway, if anyone else runs into this problem, just mess around with the button until it starts working again. Though, as always, if you break it, its not my fault.

Troubleshoot it.
Delete the app and see if it still happens. If it does, flash a raw firmware and completely wipe your device. if it still continues, its a hardware issue and you should exchange the device.

You're in custom or stock rom?
Im on stock with no modifications.
Phone auto shuts down
Did you find any solution same thing started to happen with me twice in 2 days
The way I fixed it... go to settings, Security & Lock Screen, click on the gear icon next to screen lock, then choose the first option Automatically lock, choose "Immediately" any thing other than that causes the screen to go black. I hope it works!
@Ahmed_x this didnt work for me.
So today i was about to miss my international flight because of this stupid phone deciding to die on me while on charging so no alarm went off.
Wtf is wrong with Asus? How could this have gotten worst with the new update. Are their developers ret**ded?
This phone is being returned unfortunately. Awesome phone but if u cant trust it to give a simple thing as alarm whats the point.
It happened to me twice in three months. The smartphone got stuck/freeze in standby mode: no response from the physical buttons or touch. I use the official android 9 rom.
I managed to restart it with the power button and volume up pressed for 15 seconds.
I hope that with android 10 this will never happen again.
Happened to me today, had to hold volume-down + power for about 10-15s to get it back.
very strange using latest firmware too (WW_Phone-17.0230.2004.60)
[HELP] My ROG Phone always turn off suddenly when charge
Please HELP My ROG Phone 2.
It's been more than a month if the charge will turn off unexpectedly. This situation is experienced until today. So that every time I charge, phone must be in the dead state. I've been very frustrated. Already doing factory data reset, only lasts for one week and back like that again.
Worse, in certain circumstances the handphone suddenly dead and hard to be turned on again. When charging the battery, sometimes the phone likes to not fill. I had to unplug and re-plug the charging cable to return it to normal. Its sucks. I bought this phone in a new condition with the official warranty on January. I already did update to Android 10 when available by the system. This issue occurs after the update.
I had thought the charger that I got from the factory was problematic, until I decided to buy a new charger with the original quality with 30watt power. But it turns out the same.
Same here my phone will turn off while charging. And it will keep rebooting. Sometimes my rog will not charge
My ASUS ROG2 is starting ti piss me iff noe.. Everything I play BR in CODM alwaiz black out..every single game black out. This is not good...Is this normal? Every game has to black out?...

Moto G6 turns on, but shows nothing but a black screen

Hello, members. I come here to ask your help because i haven't found any solution for it anywhere on the internet. This is what happened: some days go (around a week or two) i updated my security patch to the last one released by Motorola and the phone was OK, pretty much the same. Then around five to six days ago the problem started: my phone started going off even with full battery, and so i had to hold high volume key + power key for the phone to boot again (this happened twice and was "solved" by the time) and so the headache started. Around four days ago i went to sleep and left my phone charging, then when i woke up some hours later it was completely off, showing nothing on the screen, then i removed the charger and turned it on, and for my surprise the phone booted saying Hello Moto, vibrating and all but the screen showed absolutely nothing but a black/grey screen, not even the boot logo was shown. Once the phone started i noticed the screen touch is working for turning on the flashlight, receiving or rejecting calls and all, but it is completely dark. I have already tried lighting up a flashlight in front of its light sensor to see if the ambient display was active, but it is not. I have also tried turning it on by holding low volume key + power for a lot of seconds and it resulted in no changes. I have tried turning it on by holding high volume key + power key, and even low + high + power keys simultaneously for tons of seconds and NADA. I'm completely desperated because i have found no solutions for it at all anywhere. My phone has not fallen to the ground and neither got watered, so i don't know what the **** has happened to it. It got like this completely out of a sudden, no one even touched it.
I had the same issue with my moto g6 and it happened a few days ago. i unlocked bootloader and rooted the phone and then installed some apps . it happened 2 times. First time happened i solved it. While it was charging screen went black and nothing appeared on screen but phone was working . i called from another phone and it was ringing. I thought an app was causing this issue so i uninstalled some apps that i installed when i got the phone. I turned it off and waited for a while to cool down ( i thought it was heated from over charging ). When i turned on it was ok everything came back. Week later it did the same issue but this time it was completely gone. I removed back cover to check battery . I disconnected the battery and then connected again , turned on the phone , screen was going on and off. After turning it on it stayed around 10 min. and then again everything gone. People who had similar issue are saying hard reset or fastboot mode etc. but nothing appears on screen so how can i do hard reset when i do not see anything on screen. Right now it is unusable . I cannot do nothing with the phone.
I fixed this problem on my G6+
The screen went black after the phone being in the hot sun for a while. I believe the problem was due to a poor connection to the screen because when I pressed hard at the very bottom of the screen the display flickered on. I then pressed very hard at several points along the bottom of the screen and the screen then started working constantly again. Not really a proper fix but I now have a working display again.
