Won't power on.

Twice now my verizon gt would not come out of sleep mode when I hit the power button. Log press, short press, multi tap, long long long press, nothing.
First time I thought the battery was dead and plugged it in and left it for a while and went back and it was working normal. Last night I was positive the battery was ok and just let it sit for ten minutes and then when I hit the power button it woke right up.
Is it possible for an app to cause this?
Thanks, Harry

Are you overclocking ir undervolting the tab? Or do you use any app doing so?
No. Not trying to overclock.

Optimus black soft keys random clicks

My phone is now unusable, once you turn it on the soft keys will light up on their own, any idea how to fix? It will randomly click home button and will exit everything you're doing.
Could it be my screen digitizer? I'm running the ics leak.

Did it get wet maybe? I would definitly give a try to another ROM, but it dont think it s a SW problem, but just to be sure...

cover the 2 sensors on the top left with a piece of folded paper or something, do they light up?
Ah yes .. I'm sat under a bright light doooh thank you
Thought my home and back was faulty . It sometimes is less responsive than other times (double tap to get multi apps ) but I'm presuming that's a software glitch

Others are reporting issues with the buttons sometimes not responding, not sure if it's a software glitch, or just a small footprint for the buttons, ie you have to press right on the button and not in the general area if you know what i mean.
Cool I'll relax then and stop worrying my phone is faulty. Big thanks

I would monitor how you go with pressing the buttons, it may be a glitch, but i know when i'm using mine, i am often off the button when i press it, being used to the One X for the last year, the buttons are further to the edge, so automatically i have been pressing further out than the actual buttons are.
I always turn mine off. Just saying lol

The capacitive area is in fact VERY small. Just barely bigger than the Home and Back icons themselves. Precision touch is required and is why I suspect some think its not responsive

How do you turn them off ?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I use an app called keyboard backlights from play. Works great but recently in occasions they come on anyway. They are off 80% of the time though. Can only do if your rooted btw

Try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39498430&postcount=7
Seems that the One has very small area of touch for buttons, so probably not software problem.
Turn on vibrate and you will realise how small of an area we have .. seems the way it's been designed and not a bug . Vibrate assists because you know when your missing now don't have the issue

Replacement screen dead?

I replaced the screen on a Verizon droid 4 and when booted, only the middle of the screen responds to any type of touch, capacitive buttons don't work, and the screen selects randomly in the middle by itself.
I've taken it apart and put everything back together 3 times checking connections and same results occur.
Am I missing something or is the replacement a dead one?

Edit: fixed the issues. It was a bad screen. Ordered from a company rather than eBay. Guess that's what I get for trying to save a couple bucks. 2 replacement worked great.
