My HTC One fails to connect to any WiFi, ATT hotspots, home router, etc, unless I select restart, power off then back on the phone.
If I try to log on at home it reports "failed to connect". If I power off then on, it connects automatically. But if I leave the house and return, no connection, but it shows all available networks. I disabled all power saver settings, Avast / Battery Guru.
Any solutions available?

Hi,
Now i have to ask, because i can't find my self. Is there any app to Touch Pro what would disable all connections when i press power button? When im not using phone, i always press power button so screen goes black and it won't use unnecessary power. It would be very good, if same time all data connections, bluetooth etc. would be disabled.
That would be handy. I'd use it! But until we find it you could do what I do.
Set the long-press button to toggle Airplane Mode. To turn off the phone you hold down the hang-up key to kill the radios and then use the power button to black the screen. To turn on you'd use the power button and then hold down the hangup to turn all the radios back on. It's an extra step and takes an extra 5 seconds but it works.
You can also have the long-press pop up an option menu.
Just a thought.
I have read that a hard reset is activated by:
1. Turn off the device if it is turned on
2. (Plug the device into the computer USB Port) Press and hold the Volume Up, Volume Down, and the Power Button at the same time for about three to four seconds to turn the device on, if done correctly you’ll see an Android lying on its back
3. Use the volume buttons to navigate to the Recovery Mode option, and press the Power Button to confirm your choice
4.The device will restart, and after a few minutes the device should boot to a screen showing an Android with a red triangle, press and hold (release buttons after 5 seconds) the Power Button and Volume Up on this screen
5. Use the volume buttons to navigate to Wipe Data / Factory Reset and press the Power Button to confirm our choice
6. Use the volume buttons to navigate to Yes and press the Power Button to confirm your choice
All goes well till after #2 after i plug in the device to computer via usb port it the tablet freezes and i can not navigate to recovery mode or anything.
Have I missed a step or is something wrong? If onboard recovery process is broke is there a way to fix it?

Hello. I have a Huawei W1 running 8.1 GDR1 and yesterday, it just started rebooting endlessly every 5 minutes, and it always took the date back to 8:08 AM 8/27. I tried to hard reset on the about section but it just restarted normally without wiping anything. Tried to do the - and + volume buttons combination but the screen with the exclamation mark disappears as soon as I press the first button. There's no way to hard reset this phone and I don't have any other idea to fix it. What can I do?
How to Factory Reset:
Go to Start > Application list > Settings.
Then scroll to the bottom and choose About.
Tap on Reset your phone.
To confirm the reset tap Yes.
It will take a few minutes to restore the default settings, then your phone will restart.
--- Hard Reset ---
Option 1:
Press and hold the Camera + Volume Down + Power buttons at the same time.
Then release the Power button when the phone vibrates.
After that, release the Camera button and Volume Down when you are prompted on the Format screen option.
Then press Windows button twice to confirm.
Option 2:
Turn your phone off.
Then press and hold the power key and release it when it vibrates.
Press and hold the Volume Down button until the exclamation mark is displayed.
Then input the follow sequence of keys: Volume Up > Volume Down > Power > Volume Down.

I tried all of that, to no avail. In the about section, the phone just reboots and doesn't wipe anything, and the other methods just don't work.
Just got my new N6, was setting it up, got the system update to 5.1 which I downloaded. Until here, everything seemed fine, however, after installing, I got an error message and since then, all it's doing is "Android is starting..."
Where did I go wrong? Called Moto CS which was a joke! I'll call Expansys from where I got the phone. But there has to be an easier solution.
Anyone? Thanks in advance.
If its the first boot after updating, it might take some time. Else try to factory reset from the recovery.
Turn OFF Nexus > Press and hold Vol Up button + Power button. Use Vol Down button to select Recovery and Power button to choose it. When the Android with Red triangle appears, press and hold Power button and tap on Vol Up. Now choose Factory reset option.
Thank you, but could not turn it off. Trying to power + vol up didn't do anything, however, power + vol down gave the fastboot mode from where I chose recovery, but it said no command was found
I think that means you have no custom recovery. Taken from another site:
"Press and hold the Power key and the Volume up key for around three seconds and then let go of the Volume up key, but keep pressing Power.
You should see the Android system recovery options pop up at the top of the screen. Use the Volume keys to highlight the options and the Power key to select the one you want."
Try this from the recovery screen. I think there is a power off option or maybe a factory reset option.
I'll give it a try and post am update, thank you.
Yeah simply pressing and holding power down then Pressing volume up once while holding power will give you the option to factory data reset. During startup it'll take some time for the first boot, some report 10 mins, be patient.

Holding power and vol up doesn't do anything for me! Why is it doing that?!
It's power and vol down. it boots you into the bootloader and there you can choose functions with vol up and down, and select it with power.
I did the factory reset, but it's still stuck in that same cycle. Called Motorola who advised to ask the merchant for a replacement. I called Expansys (from where I bought it), and was informed that I have to send it in first, then they will determine what the fault is and then I'll get the replacement, seriously?!
I called my AMEX and asked them to handle it.
Useful Button Combinations
"Emergency Reboot" - Simultaneously pressing the "Power" and "Volume down" buttons for about 10 seconds.
If at this time you are connected to the PC, the device turns off.
"Download mode" - in the off/on state, simultaneously press and hold the buttons "Volume Down", "Home" and the "Power" button and after the menu with the yellow triangle appears, press the button "Volume Up".
"Recovery mode" - in the off state, we simultaneously hold the "Power" and "Volume Up" and "Home" buttons.
If we need to get into the "Recovery mode" when display is on, first we do the "Emergency Reboot", then as soon as the screen goes blank, we immediately press the combination "Recovery mode ".
"Screenshot" - Simultaneous pressing the "Home" and "Power" buttons. It is saved on the DCIM / Screenshots path.
Just for clarity's sake. Number 2 can be accessed at any time, device on/off, boot hang or boot loop.
