Hey guys,
I rooted my GT I9000M using the SGS Easy Rooting tool and then installed the One Click Lag fix app. After a few days, I tried to unroot the phone using the onboard OCLF(One click lag fix) app. This caused the phone restart and it got stuck on the screen with the glowing S. It stays that way for ~10 minutes and then goes blank. But the capacitative buttons light up when I press the home button. The process repeats when I hold down the power button at this stage.
I think the three button mode works for me because I was able to get into the 'Downloading' mode. I am a noob and don't know what to do now. I haven't messed with the ROMs or anything. Just rooted the phone.
What am I supposed to do now? PLEASE help me.
Thanks.
I recently flashed cm7 onto my Bell SGS I9000 and everything is running fantastic except for one issue.
My home button. I can use it to enter recovery and use it within clockwork. I can also use it to turn the screen on while the phone is on and within widgetlocker (to unlock the phone), beyond that it does nothing. I'm just wondering if this is a known issue (I know that the button breaking completely is an issue, but it seems that my button still works just not within the OS itself) and if there might be a fix?
I've tried changing the binding of it in adw settings but none of the functions work. The home button for all intents and purposes is now useless and It's kind of lame having to hit back 100 times just to exit a web browser.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
I think you should reflash all beginning with jpu and repart... I dont know any other possibility!
Hi
I think i may have got some water damage on my phone. My home button has stopped working but the other two at either side of it are still fine. The thing is i can still use it to get into recovery.download mode. Has anyone had this problem? Is there anything i can do?
I have been reading about a softkey that can be used if home button dead. Is that a program or part of a rom?
Thanks in advance
James
Slim Bean rom has soft keys, such as Home, available.
I have an almost new Nook HD running CM10.1-20130810-Nightly-hummingbird in EMMC (just updated today).
Most of the time, it won't wake up from sleep unless I repeatedly press the power button from 10 to 20 times.
Other times it wakes up immediately when pressing either the Nook button or the power button.
Once it wakes up, everything works perfectly. This is the only problem I have.
It had the same problem with both 20130624-Unofficial and 20130719-Unofficial.
Anyone have any ideas????

Do you have a cover on it? Maybe one with a magnet in it?

Nope... no cover... I use a BookArmor case that doesn't have any magnets in it.
I have the same exact problem. I use a case with a magnet cover. Running CM 0810.

Then open the cover twice and it will be ok.

Is there anything I can do to fix this without a cover????

The magnetic cover issue is actually on HD+'s. I have heard of no one having your issue with an HD. Sounds like you have a defective power button. Did you have this issue on stock?

I have the HD and I have the same problem. I took off my cover/case and still experience these sleep issues. Yes, opening the cover twice is a workaround but it does not fix it.

I don't remember this happening when it was stock... but it was only stock for about two days before I broke down and installed CM10 to EMMC.
There's at least two of us out there with HD's with this problem.
I doubt its the power button as I can see the LCD flash on and off when I repeated push on the button to wake the HD.
The backlight goes on and off with black screen and without a lock screen.
Also the Nook button should wake it up but fails the same way.
Sometimes, when I remember, a long press on either the Nook or the power button will wake the unit up more often, even that fails a lot of the time.
I suppose I can flash it back to stock and see what happens....... sigh
I don't mean to get off track here, but I'm wondering about the magnetic cover issue.
I have an HD+ and a magnetic cover. I don't have any lockscreen set. On the stock ROM, it worked just fine. But, as mentioned in this post, I have to open the cover twice for my Nook to turn on.
It doesn't always take two times. Sometimes, if I set the Nook down and pick it up a couple minutes later, opening the cover once will turn it back on. Does anyone know why it's doing this?
Let me add something strange to this problem:
I can click the power button three times fast then hold it down......
.... and the Nook will wake up 98% of the time!!
Sometimes, I have to do it two or three times, but it always works!!

Mine does all the things in this thread, too. The open cover twice fix works for me, so that'll do as a fix for now. But here's another I found:
I can click the power button quickly twice, holding it in the second time. This brings up the shutdown menu. If I then touch the 'back' screen button, the screen stays on.
Hoping this might help someone who doesn't have a magnetic cover.
My HD running 10.1.3 does this from time to time. I have a Poetic case which I believe has a magnet in the cover. When it doesn't come on, if I push the Nook or the power button, the screen comes on and quickly goes out again. It may do this several times before it finally stays on. I'll have to try the techniques mentioned here.

My HD+ is running cm11, most of time, the wake up by opening the cover works perfectly, occasionarily, I need to open twice, didn't have other wake up issues.
My new HD is experiencing the same problem. I'm on the stable 10.1 cyanodgen hummingbird release. I would sometimes have to press the power buttons on the side or front repeatedly to wake it up. Before I had the "slide to unlock" lock-screen on but after I unlocked the screen..swipe to unlock..it would go back to the lockscreen, it would do this over and over until it eventually unlocks it. So I thought it was a lockscreen issue with the rom so I took off the "lock-screen". I would think the problem is gone but the screen just comes on for a split second and then turns off every now and then. You would have to use the home button or power button to turn on the tablet. It is annoying.
I just bought a Nook HD on ebay with a Poetic cover with magnet.
Mine does the same thing on stock 2.2.1, both before and after rooting, whether opening the cover or, with the cover already open, pushing the Nook button.
I don't think it ever takes more than three tries to wake it up, though.
Glad to find out that this problem isn't unique to my unit, at least.
Sorry to post to a 3-year-old thread.
Hi all
I have a stock HTC GPE 4.4.4, with stock recovery, no SU. Phone works fine except for a random problem which has only just started with the phone. When i unlock the phone, the back button doesnt work at all - even if i leave it for a few seconds or more. But, if i tap the home button, the back button will then start to work. I thought initially it may have been the screen lock which i recently put on so i turned that off - no cigar. Im stumped as to why its happening just! Im hoping the official GPE update will fix it but not sure...
Thanks
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it sounds to me like the capacitive buttons are starting to go bad on your phone. If you think it's the software, back everything up and do a factory reset and see if that resolves the issue. Also, I'm curious, does the back button work in recovery?
Yep works fine in recovery. In fact, its working again right now. It only ever happens when the phone has been locked for a period of time. Once unlocked, it occasionally doesnt work unless i hit the home button. Also, the search bar in chrome fails to bring up the keyboard as well.
Im pretty sure its software related though. Just wondered of anyone here had same issue
