[Q] My new Xperia Z volume down button stoped working !!! - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My new xperia Z volume down button stopped working now.
I didn't root or install any ROM yet..
I tested by going to the test menu by calling *#*#7378423#*#*
In service test->keyboard and switch, volume up gets registered but not volume down
I also have problem with my power button, some times it doesn't respond to wake my phone.
If i call my phone from another phone.. the phone screen gets on.
Is there any way to solve this ?
Thanks

Have you submerged your phone in water?
If so, it is very likely that water entered the device making those buttons stop responding.

No, I didn't touch the water with my phone yet.

Now all the buttons stopped working, including the power button and volume up button. I can turn on the phone by calling my phone from another number.. Installed an app to wake up by taping on the proximity sensor...
Any help..

my power button also had same problem.. I gave it to service centre people for repairs.. guess this is the last resort if you have tried other roms & problem is persisting.

only when on - power button doesnt work

Hello gents
My power button doesn't work when my device is on.
I know its not a physical problem because when I pull out the battery then put it back in and hold the power button, the device turns on.
It only doesn't work when the device is on.
Tried holding it down for a while but nothing.
My device is not rooted.
I am on 4.0.4
thanks
i had the similar problem first my power button stopped working sometimes, then my phone started to restart automatically sometimes , then frequently, then daily and finally i got a free replacement of motherboard
same here
phone restarts by itself too
And also my internal clock was not functioning properly

Is there other ways to wake up the phone beside the power button?

Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia Z, the power button seems not working properly. May be i dropped the phone and broke some wire connection inside.
So when i press the power button, the button is not working everytime.
Is there way to wake up the phone (when the screen is black) by using the volume button?

No there is no other way,send it for a repair.
use the Q&A forum next time.
maybe installing a custom rom would let you unlock device with volume buttons.

^I'm pretty sure that's possible. Just head over to the Play Store and install "Anyunlock".
Although that's just a temporary workaround, so I'd suggest that you get it fixed soon!

[Q] Z1 power button problem

Hi
Iv had my Xperia x1 about a year now. The phone works fine. The only issues I've had are that the speaker grill on the bottom and the silver ring around the power button fell off. However these were not major problems for me as I don't use the waterproof features of the phone so I've left them as is.
However today my power button has been playing up. If I touch the button, without pressing it, the button acts as if it's been pressed and locks the phone. If I keep my finger on it the phone turns on. The button works fine while pressing it too and the phone is working perfectly fine aswell. It's just this touchscreen button issue. Iv Googled it and most power button problems for the z1 seem to be related to it not working etc however mine works fine.. It works too well actually.
I was thinking maybe the part is loose and needs replacing.
Would replacing the power button fix this and does anybody have any idea what's going on /what I should do?
Thanks

Xperia Z screen problem

Hello developers!
Having troubles with my Z's screen. Going to explain whole procedure.
After turning device on I can normally use it, everything works problem starts when I press power button to
standby, I cant turn it on but if somebody calls me, display goes on again. I can also normally use power button to switch off so
button is working properly. P.S. If xperia is on the cable, it's also working normally. Is it software problem or what? Have no idea.
