Sometimes the power button is pressed by accident and this powers on the phone, which is not desirable. It would be great if this behavior can be changed.
hi,
was playing with my phone and wanted to power it down by pressing the power button but the screen just goes off and the phone is in standby mode,
previously a menu pop up when i press the power button and i can select, power off phone, take screen shot and another option which i forgot,
can anyone advise how to power off my phone ? is the power button spoilt ?
thanks

This has happened to me once and I recall someone else on the forum also had that issue. Just turn off the phone by holding the power and volume up together. The power button should work as normal after that.

Seems a software bug. Happens to me sometimes too.

I had that problem today! I pressed power button + volume up and it worked!!!!! Don't worry it will work, just press it for 10 seconds!!!
Sometimes, the screen couldn't be turned on even if I press the power button, it seemed to be dead, but if I long press the power button, the screen turned on, and the menu of restart and power displayed, I selected to restart the gear, and then all will be OK. It had happened 3 times, I wonder if it is a software bug or hardware problem.
Press menu + vol down + power.
Hold down all three buttons until the tablet reboots and the screen momentarily goes off, then after about one second the Samsung and Android logos appear in white.
Now we are at the point where the tablet screen has just gone dark. You have less than one second to:
1) If you release the power button now, the tablet simply reboots.
2) If you keep holding the buttons the tablet enters Download mode.
3) If you very quickly, VERY quickly, press VOL UP, while still holding down the power + menu, the tablet enters the recovery.
I have not found a way to switch it off other than entering recovery and then selecting reboot/power off.
Hard reset only is actually just hold POWER + VOL DOWN
Hello everyone,
following issue:
When the flashlight is turned on and the screen is turned off, pressing the power button will turn off the flashlight. You then have to press the power button again to wake the phone.
Is there any solution/workaround/mod to just have the power button not affect the flashlight at all?
I go running in the dark sometimes and this is really an annoying issue since I sometimes accidentally press the power button.
Thanks already for reading this!
Cheers
