Hello people
I already have a new phone.
But my oldphone the optimus black the power button dont work sometimes it works if i put different charger in my phone :/
Idunno what this is caused by.
And if there is no solution could i use the g button like powerbutton.
My ob is stock 4.0.4 and rooted.
Thank you
the power button, speaker and usb port are all located on the same connector
I saw this when I opened mine and it wasnt charging, power button didnt work and the earphone speaker wouldnt work sometimes as well.
the connection comes lose over time, what I did was to add a thin piece of foam ontop of the connector to keep it in place
its been working fine for a few days now
I got the info from another thread, will look for the link

Hello guys,
A few weeks ago I bought a p990. Everything is ok I enjoy the phone ( CM 7.2 rooted ) however the power button doesn't work perfectly . I have to tap it on the left side of button ( stronger than usually ). Do you know what should I do ? Can I change a ' wake up ' button for another ?
PS. i dont have warranty.
Please give me an advice.

HI, you can change a "wake up" button for another in settings-display and check "Volume rocker wake". You can after wake up screen with vol+/- button. :cyclops:
Try CM10... It's the best and the last night today's version is really stable and ****ing smooth...:laugh:

If you want stay on CM7 try reinstall your ROM and in CWM make Dalvik Cache and Format your phone. You will have clear phone and everything should be allright... Don't forget backup your data...!!!
Its not working at all Only first wake up work correctly. Then volume +/- doesnt respond.

the volume rocker wake works for me only when charging.. if the phone is off the charger nothing happens. Can you confirms it works for you even off the charger or after deep sleep ?

You must flash cm7 or cm10. There is a function to wake up your phone with volume buttons. And for screen off are tons of applications in play store.

Reminds me of a problem with the Palm T|X, which was known for failing power buttons (I wonder how many people remember that device? I am still using mine... ) The best and cheapest solution was the same -- just to replace the button. Doesn't even have to be exactly the same type, as long as it fits...
Yes i am from the ones that started to experience button problem but i found replacement and will replace it when it comes
After so many presses it start's not 2 work on soft press
There is any guide on how to fix or replace the power button ?
So I was trying to update my phone through Sony PC Companion, the files got downloaded. The only thing left was the phone to enter flashmode by turning it off and pressing volume down button while connecting USB port. When I did it, nothing happened....not even a notification light blink!!
Tried all different cables too (including original sony wire)
Also, I tried charging the phone normally after shutting down and not a single thing happened (no light, no screen battery indicator)
The phone is charging when it is on.
Please help me...I'm suffering a lot!!
And sorry for my bad english!!

Change the PHONE via warranty claim. Your hardware is damaged most probably.
You can do two things to confirm. backup your data and then hard reset your phone. Does it still behave the same way?
And when you turn your phone off and connect to PC, what do you see? Tell me exactly like do you see a shimmer of light and then its off or there is some kind of light etc. Just mention everything you can think about. Use flashtool and see if it connects in fastboot mode. (Not official FLASHTOOL) Here is the link : http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
Remember to connect your phone in fastboot according to your model. The instructions given on flashttol are of old device.
Good Luck
Try this
Unplug the usb as usual
Power off as usual
Then plug the usb cable while pressing volume down and also press power button for a two seconds. it will help u.
I also have the same situation like u but pressing the power button done me the trick.

It really worked!! Thanks!!
My brother has a milestone 3 xt860, and yesterday he came to me, and said that his phone stopped working, this is what happens when you try to start it up:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xt9UVdqlqbQ
I tried going into recovery mode by pressing X button + power button, but happens exactly the same thing as in this video...
I also tried plugging it on the by USB into my PC, it was off when I plugged, the screen turned on the same way, the brightness changed 2 times, and it's stuck this way, my PC don't recognize anything, tried plugging and unplugging it while turned on, nothing happens...
I never saw anything like this, does anyone knows what could cause this, and is there a way to fix?
Most likely a bad flex cable, can be replaced, kind of a pain though.
Can find a new one on ebay, should be a link to take apart instuctions in my list. sd_shadow's [Collection] of Links for: Droid 3 (XT862)

Some times you can find a sweet spot, and get the screen to work.
By sliding keyboard open, and powering on, but depends on how bad the cable is.

Thanks, it seems to be the cable indeed...
sadly I don't have any of the tools needed to take apart >_< but thanks anyway

Let me explain firstly... I was in 5.1 and flashed a bad zip with TWRP, and i get a failed message in the screen... I thought nothing wrong would happened and restart phone... The point is i got infinite bootloop (phone stuck in first animation, vibration and then restart, and all again till the phone exhauste the battery)...
The situation is my volume button is broken and cant enter to fastboot mode. When i plug the phone in my computer, is recognize for few seconds till gets restart again. The question, is there any option to get in fastboot mode using linux or something like that? It would be great. :crying:
Had this same issue this weekend. Had a xt1060 dev ed with down volume broke. You need to replace the buttons on the frame (seen on eBay for 5$-13$). I ended up throwing the main board into another phone I had laying around rather than replace the buttons alone. EBay is your friend. I tried shorting pins on the connection where the button
ribbon cable plugs into, but without an actual pin out, I only managed to get the power button to work.
But is a way to give life back to my motorola? When i plug to charger it turn on and vibrate and restart..... and over again, till it loses all the battery

like i said, there is but it involves replacing the ribbon cable underneath the buttons, that is glued to the metal frame. it will cost between 5-15$ to buy the parts, and its pretty simple.

Hi there, I was wondering if there are any sure fire things I can do to be able to get my HTC back into the recovery menu.
The phone will not turn on, does not respond to charging and volume down and power does nothing, even when held down for a couple of minutes. Interestingly when connected to windows I hear the device connected noise when I hold down volume down and power whilst connected.
Any help would be massively appreciated in reviving my favourite phone. Runs custom AOSP android with the bootloader unlocked. Was working absolutely fine prior to the battery being rum down. Thank you!

You can flash it by using its latest firmware if your phone is not turning on.

Could be a crashed light sensor, sometimes it gets stuck and prevents the back light from turning on. Try holding a bright light close the light sensor then hold the bootloader button combo. It can take a couple of minutes so be patient keep holding the buttons. It should come on at the bootloader screen then just reboot from there.
No promises but it was a know issue so it's worth a try. [emoji106]
