Try pulling the battery for a minute. Then put it back in.
I'd make an insurance claim if you have it.

Okay i was out in the rain the other day and my Diamond was in my pocket.
Ever since my power button has stopped working. I guess my phone got wet somehow...
Now i always get the " Power will be turned off and you may lose data if you have not saved them. Do you want to continue?"
It just keeps popping up every minute or so it and wont bloody go away.
My power button wont turn the phone off/on or even lock my phone. So I'm guessing it's dead.
I'm guessing there is a part in the phone I can replace to fix this. Can one of you gurus point me in the right direction on which part I would need to buy?
I'm from the UK..
Thank you in advance.
Little bit of an update. My battery died last night. So I put it on charge when I woke up.
I obviously had to use the power button to turn it on. And for some strange reason it worked!
But It wont allow me to lock my phone when it's turned on. And i also get the same issue with the message popping up as I posted above. Could anyone help
anybody know what part i would need to fix this?
My sister's Captivate is unrooted, and completely stock. This morning, all of a sudden it won't work. When you turn it on, it boots until the screen with the "S" on it, then you can't get past that. Eventually the screen turns off, but if you touch the capacitive buttons, they light up. Nothing else works. The only way to turn it off is to take the battery out and then you turn it on and the process starts all over again. Does anyone know what the problem might be or how to fix it?

Can you get into download mode, and is it under warranty?
what's download mode? and how long is the warranty? If it's a year, then yes. She got it in January.
If you have a local warranty center, take it in. If you cant get into the phone, they cant tell if its rooted.
I don't use my G1 anymore, but I'd like to get some ics on it for ****s and giggles. Unfortunately the phone seems to have forgotten how to work.
I was happily running CM 5.0.7 or somesuch a while ago, when it decided to just power off and not turn back on. After pressing the power button many times it magically came on again... for 15 minutes. This went on for a while before it flat out wouldn't turn on at all. I thought it was the battery, so I got a new battery. This didn't help.
So I put the phone on a shelf, got a new phone and forgot about it for a long time. Then one day I got curious. I plugged it in and sure enough the orange light turned on. After it fully charged, I booted it up and put whatever the news CM version was.. 6 maybe? Anyway all was good, for about an evening. I pulled the battery and put it back on the shelf. Now that ICS is out for it, I'd like for this phone to work again. I just plugged it in and let it sit. The LED never came on. I hit the power button and nothing happened. Then I unplugged it and then all the backlights on the buttons came on. If I press the power button all the backlights turn off as long as I am pressing. The second I take my finger off all the backlights come back on. The screen and LED haven't even come close to coming on.
Does anyone have any idea what's up?
PS. I just want to clarify, I never bricked it in a conventional sense. The ROM worked fine as long as it was powered up. I could reboot it and everything.
thats happening to my old g1 too...still dont know how to fix it or whats wrong with it =[
Probably a loose or broken cable
My old G1 also got messed up because of a broken screen cable.
This sounds like the cable connecting the smaller board with the buttons and usb to the motherboard
i guess i'll open it up and see if anythings wrong =p
When going to bed tonight do these steps.
1. Put your phones brightness display on the lowest setting
2. Plug your phone in for an overnight charge, do not "turn off" your phone.
3. Wake up in the morning
4. Click the power button on your HTC ONE M7
Did the screen turn on? Are the Soft Keys the only part that lights up?
I've been able to replicate this problem over and over on 3-4 different HTC ONE M7's. For some reason the phone's display will not turn on in the morning. The only way to get it to is to either hold down the power button for a few seconds and the restart screen will pop-up which activates the screen again. Or, to do a complete restart.
Eventually the screen starts working again like normal after fiddling with it for 15-20 minutes...
I believe this is either a KitKat problem or light sensor problem or both. I do know this issue was never around before the KitKat upgrade months back.

I#ve never run across that problem but I know when I enable "ScreenOn" the screen stays on all night and if I just let my phone sit with screen on (because I fell asleep texting ) the screen will be off in the morning.

with my phone its just a 5 second lag sometimes, and i click the power button again to make sure i clicked it and it instead locks itself back. The third click however, everything works fine.
this has been happening to me for the longest its very irritating, i notice it happens whenever i fall asleep, a nap during the day or when i wake up in the morning its really annoying
Well glad to see I'm not the only one.
I have provided this thread link to HTC and reported the problem. Requested that they chime in if they have any questions.
i had that issue

Yes I had the same issue as the original post.Long story short I ended up sending the device back. The new one didn't suffer from this problem. This was back in October of 2013.
Same issues, it's probably light sensor:

Nope. I already tried the light sensor calibration trick. It didn't work unfortunately. I ended up swapping out 4-5 HTC ONE's before it worked correctly.
yup, I tried the trick as well a few more times and could not wake the screen either. generally I'm tolerant of stuff like this because I assume it is the byproduct of repeated flashing and combo of mods.. but I I recall this happening quite early on in ownership and now it's back. (was AOSP now Sense base). sigh
I have a rooted VS980 with nameless rom. Just out of nowhere i went to turn on my phone screen and the screen illuminated like it wanted to turn on, but nothing came up. It was plugged in, charging. the notification light was working and told me i had a text. I held down the power for 20 seconds or longer and it seemed like thephone restarted, the screen went black and then illuminated again. But no LG logo, no nothing. I let it die completely before trying again, and i plugged it in and tried to turn it on withno avail.. No button combo works, im pretty sure the phone is just done. I didnt drop it or anything and i wasnt doing anything to it when it stopped working. If I hold the power down for a long period of time the red led starts blinking red. I dont know what to do, any ideas?
