[Q] a strange problem with power button, PLS HELP!!! - HTC Sensation XL

Hi everyone,,
I hope I can tell my problem properly with my poor language!:crying:
my device got a problem in response of the power button, sometimes it does not work and I did use the volume buttons to wake up the screen instead of it!
then one time the device fall down from my hand and the battery pulled out so the phone turned off. I tried to switch it ON but no way because the button became totally not working
I tried every way to make it ON, I unscrewed the devise and I check that the button was not damaged and every thing looks fine.
I tried to use some ways that are mentioned in youtube like unplugging the battery several times and so on.. but still not working.
I took the phone to a service shop in my town and they made an electrical check for the button and it was working well electrically! but they could not doing more with the phone because they don't have spare parts for HTC devices!
after that I expected that this issue is a software problem, because I installed a custom rom recently!
finally I succeeded to make it ON using ADB commands and I changed the rom 2 times, but the power button still not working, then I changed the Kernel, and the problem remains :crying::crying::crying::crying:
so, do you advice me to try anything else?

Please heeeeeeeeelp

i have the same problem
i have the same problem here and i use cmd to reboot :'( but i have a big problem my mobiles keeps on shutting down alone and i restart it by adb but if i am out of home what can i do ? anyune help us

Instal script manager and write a script to do it.
And if you using custom rom write to the author mayby he will change a vendor key for you.

I was written what you need to make you life easier if you have power button broken. If you have shutdown problem write to developer of rom you're using. Or change it.

HELP, My phone refuses to boot up.

It started as soon as I received a phone call from my brother and we were in the middle of a conversation when the phone suddenly goes off. I tried to restart it, I even removed the battery and replaced it but when I press the power button I get the initial boot sequence showing the htc logo and then the phone would just go of. I thought that maybe the battery is low but when I plug it to a power outlet it keeps trying to boot but keeps switching off and it just does this over and over.
Please I don't know if anyone has encountered this problem before, I really don't know what to do.

Try a Hard Reset using the device buttons:
1. With the phone off. If it’s frozen or unresponsive, pull then replace the battery.
2. Press and hold the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons and power the phone back on.
3. Continue to hold Volume Up and Volume Down until a factory reset screen appears.
Hope this helps!

Well I just did that but the problem persist. I should note that occasionally it does complete its boot up and I can use the phone but it can go off at any time and once it does this, i cannot get it to completely boot up. Once it attempts a boot up and goes off I cannot even restart it by pressing the power button until I replace the battery or plug it into a power socket or the computer at which point it will just keep booting up and shutting down.
Something far wrong there. Get a replacement device.

Hi, I have got the same problem on my HD7 and I am completely noob to many new words Goldcard, jailbroken, etc. Would you please advise me exactly what you did (i mean flahing procedure) and really appriciate any help.
Well if you have got an O2 HD7, then I would advise you to get one of the O2 ROMS from ansar, download it then press and hold the volume down button when booting up your device, connect the phone to your pc and start the app. More instructions in the HD7 development thread.
There's nothing wrong the phone. Don't hard reset or flash it. It happens from time to time, just give it some time and eventually you will see a battery icon appear. Then after awhile it will boot up.
Again, do not flash or hard reset just be patient. I believe it just needs to drain all the way down as it doesn't have enough power to fully boot.
Not booting up
Hi,
My T Mobile hd7 is been restarting after it shows the htc logo..It was all of a sudden after i connected to my pc this happened ...Tried to flash it with ansar tmobile update..problem persists...Dont knw how to use goldcard..please help me out..
Thank u and Best Regards

[Q] Bricked? Or dead? Please help...

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me.
I have an Incredible S with Virtuous Quattro installed. I did that 3 weeks ago. Since then I experienced 4 freezes and the buttons (although working) didn't light up at all or just flickered. But this is not the problem, I just mention this in case it is relevant.
I put the phone last night on the charger and realized this morning that the screen was frozen again, I removed the battery and reinserted it. The phone seems to start (vibrates and when connected to the PC it also tells me it loads the driver) but nothing else happens. No screen output at all. I tried now umpteen times, removed battery and tried to press power button whilst holding the vol up button, all to no avail.
Do you have any idea?
Try volume down + power ..

Tried that but phone doesn't react at all, doesn't even vibrate as it does when pressing vol up + power or power alone :crying:
But thanks for getting back!
Is ADB working? You can't enter the bootloader?
Some have had success leaving the battery out for a while, and then putting it back in and turning it on
Not saying it WILL work, just a suggestion
And I'll try not to scare you, but it is actually is possible that you fried your eMMC chip pulling your battery Seems to have happened a few times on Desire S and Incredible S :/

Thanks for that, I think the latter is what happened, the phone just doesn't do anything. I think it is time to bin it and to get something else

Before you bin it, perhaps take it to HTC and tell them it has stopped working, and that it happened when you were charging (which is true)
If they can't turn it on, they can't see it is s-off
and will replace the motherboard
IMHO doing a battery pull at the wrong time is all you did mate, its HTC's fault for using faulty eMMC chips. Doing a battery pull is not voiding warranty as AFAIK
Is it under warranty? If it is, then its worth a try instead of binning a $300 phone with one fried chip
Had the Same issue gave it to hTC they Gave me any entire new Incredible s
Thanks guys, I will give this a go.
I do have the same problem now , its not under warranty , any other way to fix it :crying:
Same but different
Well I have the same issue but only slightly different. I can't access the bootloader nor the recovery mode. I don't know why. I'm currently using cyanogen 7.2. At first when I flashed it,everything was fine. Untill one day,my upper screen(status bar) can't seem to respond to my touches. Day after day it just got worst. Till one day,I my IncredibleS just left me a black screen but there were lights on the 4 buttons(home,back key etc.) I tried using the battery pulling method. Sometimes it works,sometime is doesn't. But even so,my bootloader still persist to show up. I'm a S-ON by the way. Any idea how do I solve this? And yes,my warranty has expired last may. :crying::crying:

[Q] Random shutdowns

Hi guys,
I've been having quite a problem with my HTC One. Sometimes it just turns off. But it doesnt just turn off, its completely useless after that. I can not start it again after the screen turns black. I always have to connect it to a charger and press the power button and disconnect it again and try turning it on for ages until it starts up again. Besides from that everything works perfectly.. I was really hoping u could help me... Thanks in advance
Basic info is needed-
Device model
Rom
Kernal
Mods(underclock, overclock, voltage changes)
Anything done shortly prior to the symptoms...........
Well I have a german o2 branded Htc One 32 (no dev Edition). It is still on stock, not rooted and bootloader unlocked. I actually did NOTHING special to the phone I installed normal apps( a few games and navigation software and such) and synched music on it so nothing that could provoke such an error

HTC Salsa Power button not working

Hi All,
I have HTC salsa, few months its Power button stop working on gentle press and now its totaly gone.
And if I left my phn switched off after 20 24 hrs. its starts automatically..if I remove its battery and re insert it, phone starts automatically.
I go to service center but he said that button is connected to mother board thus whole mother board will be replaced and it will cost some 90 $.
So is there anyone who can help me or faced any such issue?
one more consiquence of this problem is that if my phone's gone in sleep mode then its ring become active and the only way to get the screen is either I have to call on ,y number or plug in the charger.
So is there any app which can disble that ring.
Phone is running on Original rom nothing special treatment is provided to it and I cant do anything on it as I dont have PC connectivity for that mobile.
Please help me.
Thanks

I guess you should call HTC and get a quote for the fix. I don't think there is another way to turn it back on.
is there no other way like to a computer.

I allready did that but thx and it didnt work. I also open the back cover for im desprate cause i thought maybe i can press the power button better this way but also that didnt work. I saw something in youtube but it was for the galaxy s2 and the you use a (JIG) to automatic booting the phone and also there was a way to flash the phone and that way it automatic turn on. My question is there something like a jig or a flash software that can do that for the htc one

last idea I got: old cyanogenmods booted the phone when an usb was plugged in (when usb debug was on)
Try holding the power button with the phone directly under a lamp until it boots. Sounds weird but it worked for me. I remember reading that somewhere...

it's pretty difficult to install anything on a phone that's turned off
thx everyone but it still doesnt work. And HTC indonesia dont want to take it back for repairs must send it to Holland. I know one thing i will never buy a htc anymore couple years ago i bought also a htc (desire) and that problem was it keep heating up and rebooting. With this one i got problems with the cam on low lights and then came the power button problem.
