Sounds dumb but hold it under a bright light and hold power and volume down... Might be volume up but try both. No joke, I promise.

Holding the power resets the phone u just have to hold it for a while

Can someone please help me..

So for some reason I was charging my phone last night and it rebooted while charging... Then ever since then my soft key buttons will never light up ever. I rebooted. Hard reboot. Re flashed gingrrvolt. Idk what else to do. I've had issues with soft keys staying lit up 24 7 but a simple power off and on fixes it. But this kinda annoys me that I cannot fix this. Any help??

OK so the soft key lights do work as I unplugged my battery while it was on and charging and then the soft keys started to blink on and off. But then reset my phone and they still won't turn on... Ugh so frustrating.

What I did was: go into display and lower the brightness. Take the checkmark out.

Sleep of death?

Just got home and tried to turn on my tab and the screen stays black. Won't turn on when plugged in either. Any ideas? I'm on ics

Holding down power for 30sec rebooted it I guess..

Hold down the volume down button and the power button at the same time

Hey got ya covered.. . its kinda tricky but you hold down power button first and than quickly press volume down button. if that doesnt work hold down power button and quickly tap the home button at the bottom (second option has worked for me about 7 times already)
Power and home button.

Actually the volume button works fine. Thats how ive been getting screenshots, holding power and vol down.
Using the volume button actually gives you a nifty preview/quick link in your notification panel as well

So you can do it both ways? That is so weird. why multiple ways to screenshot. BTW screenshots don't work, even with root.

Yup, two ways, and what? Lol they work out of the box.

Im stock rooted and both work. I use the volume as it gives me a quick link to open it.

Power and Home button is the only way I can do it, unless I'm missing something.

You have to hold both the power and volume for a second. Im absolutely stock rooted, and Im going to assume the couple of roms out havent taken out the feature, so it should work on everything.

The power+home is much quicker, but like I said, I like the quick link/preview.

im pretty sure power and volume down is stock androids method and the way i take screen shots with my razr hd and the power and home is sense..both ways work
Thanks. Works perfect.

He hit it right on the nail. HTC includes both the stick android method for screen shots and they include their own method which most of us use. The sense method is faster but the stock gives u a preview and it appears in the notification bar. Power+vol. Down is the stock and power+home is the sense method. Both should work straight out of the box if not then ur timing is off

stupid question but does anybody know how to take a screen pics?

Is there a built in app? I'm not rooted yet, so I can't use my app that I used with my rooted evo. Shoot me.
