If I hold the power button to try to turn off my htc one all that happens is the soft keys (back & home) start to flash.
How do I turn this phone completely off?
Thanks

hi everyone!! i found that if i press some time the end call buttom, there are a few options that i could do, one of them is to lock the diamond... and i set long press the end call buttom to lock the device...
diamond locks when long press the end call buttom, but doesn't go sleep... is there anyway to put the power buttom to do the 2 things simultouneasly?? when you press the power buttom, it locks the device and put it to sleep! is anyway to do this??
I believe that when the device is in standby from pressing the power button all the other keys are locked with exception to the power button anyway? I know its not exactly what you're after but it seems a simpler solution than any others I can think of.
Some sort of script would do it, either MortScript of SKScheMa, to first lock the device (by launching Endkey.exe) and then power off.
Edit: There's also an auto keylock setting that I think locks the device anytime the power is off, maybe that's what you need?

Hi this is how I have always locked my diamond by pressing power off it locks and turns off the screen also, this is performed by a registry edit, using a registry editor and going to Hkey-current-user\controlpanel\backlight\autodevicelockenable and changing from 0 to 1, this will also auto lock everytime the backlight turns off so you may have to change back light off time
that should work.. but there isn't a simply way to put the power off key to do the lock of the pda and to switch off the lights??
isn't a way to do this??

Check these two threads... it looks like Armstrom's lock does the job.

Hi,
I just purchased screen locked phone (requires password to unlock). I thought hard reset will fix it but it does not do anything.
I hope volume UP and volume DOWN buttons simultaneosuly while phone if off then press Power button and release it while continuing holding VolUP and VolDown but nothing happens - phone stays on locked screen. Does this procedure works on locked phones?
Mmmm...
Make sure you're holding the buttons in firmly while you briefly press the power button. It doesn't matter that the device is password protected, all the data will be cleared and set to default ROM settings.
If the device just switches on, it means that one or both of the volume buttons weren't completely pressed when you hit the power button
I tried like 10 times already. I hold both buttons very tight but after pressing power, it just comes back to unlock screen.

hold volume button down and press power button. if you can do this just flash a new rom from the sd card.
This does not do anything either. I hold vol down button while phone is off and press briefly power while still holding button and nothing happens. It comes to load screen.

Hard reset
Be sure first that device (not the screen) is turned off, then:

Thanks,
I figured this out. I was so stupud, I understood phone is off is like screen is Off. It actually meant the whole phone is off instead (had to remove battery for that).
The First thing you need to do: Power-OFF your device.
since it's locked, software interaction may not possible. you need to take the battery out, and put it back in 2-3 seconds later
Then, hold VOLUP and VOLDOWN tightly, and hit the power button to start the hard reset procedure.

This has happened to me once and I recall someone else on the forum also had that issue. Just turn off the phone by holding the power and volume up together. The power button should work as normal after that.

Seems a software bug. Happens to me sometimes too.

I had that problem today! I pressed power button + volume up and it worked!!!!! Don't worry it will work, just press it for 10 seconds!!!
Hello!
My power button is broken, there is a way to remap other button to work as a power button? I'm using the Nova launcher that have a shortcuts section, so i puted the long press on menu button to run a app, "LockScreen" that locks the screen But it only works on the launcher, if i open another app, it doesn't work. In the System configs i desabilited to open the search engine if i long press the menu button. There is a way to make this works with all the apps? I'm using CM 10.2.
By the way, there is a way to power on the cellphone without pressing power button?
Thanks and sorry for my english!

I think that you can power it on by attaching it to charger and usb connected to pc. I remember that lot of people coplained that their phone can't be charged offline. But I am not sure if it is when you try to turn it off (and instead you will get reboot) or it works when the phone is offline.

I can't remember about CM10.2, I am on Liquid Smooth based on KitKat now, and it has harware buttons remap. And it does not have option for lock screen, but you can install some app for that and map it to use its process. Like this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock&hl=sr

Thanks for the reply! Well... I'm using CM 10.2 and i can't find any option to remap the buttons, but i found one app on the PlayStore that makes what i need! "Button Savior Non Root" (Can't post links ) It adds virtual keys on the screen, and now i can lock the screen while i run apps!
But there is a way to turn on the phone without pressing the power button? If my battery get out of charge i'll have some problems to turn it on again... :silly:
Thanks again!
My brother has Samsung Galaxy S Advance and some problem too. Power button doesn't work so we couldn't turn on the device. If we did once, we will install an application which change the properties of Volume button and Power button. Is there any way to turn on the device?
Thanks.
SOLVED Press Menu button with Volume Up long time and I saw repair menu, select restart and turn on!
So, long story short, wifes s6 was dropped. Screen wont turn on and her damn alarm keeps going off. Is there a way to power this damn thing down without having to use the screen? No I did not have USB debugging checked it is 100% stock. nothing shows up when I try to use ADB...

Try holding power button down for 15 or 20 seconds. Should power down
Yeah tried that, no luck.
Home Button + Volume Down + Power Button will reboot the phone then press the Power button.

If you get stuck in download mode hold down power and volume down, it will exit download mode but will just reboot your phone.
