power button on the diamond is dead, how do I turn it on??

after replacing a dead digitizer LCD screen, now the power button is gone...
is there an alternative way to turn the diamond on?
I have tried hitting the reset button or connecting it to the computer, but nothing worked...
the guy who fixed my phone somehow got it to run yesterday, and he told me that he did it by putting it into flash mode
did he mean bootloader mode? but without the power button, how do I access the bootloader mode?
I need your help!! THANKS!!
I have same problem. please help....!!!!!
Pull out the stylus. It should turn on automatically
Nope
That won't work if the diamond is turned off-off.
i've tested : connect your diamond on the pc, and pull off the batterie and reconnect her (2 or 3 x) and at a moment the mobile turn on.

[Q] No Hard Reset

My HD7 is stuck on the start-up HTC screen. If left for a few mins. it goes to the screen showing Phone- USB cable -PC and thats it.
I tried hard reset: volume up/down held down + power on/off. No matter how long I hold these buttons down it does not go to the boot loader screen, infact it goes to the same screen as mentioned Phone-USB-PC.
When I hold down volume button + camera +power on/off the tri-colour screen appears for a few seconds but then does to the white screen saying "Enter USB Host Mode"
Zune comes up with error C101002E and trying to flash it with O2 rom the error 260, no comms
Can I do anything to restore this?
I've just found out it has no memory card! Would this stop it from booting past the start-up screen?
Yes I bought it as faulty, so I thought a reset would do it. Its not dead, far from it but I just need pointing in the right direction
Hold volume up + down at the same time and click power once while continuing to hold BOTH volume buttons...
If that doesn't work and u haven't hacked ur fone ibwould call for a replacement .... I'm sending mine back cuz mine is constantly freezing and rebooting by itself
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

[Q] recovery boot for XT701

By lack of another location, can someone tell me how I can get into the recovery mode for the XT701?
I tried pressing the media button and powering up (with media button pressed). This gives me the exclamation mark-in-triangle display, after that I tried Volume-up plus media button, and volume-up plus camera button, but neither seemed to bring up a recovery menu.
I also tried startup with camera button and volume-up pressed, which gives a boot loader meny, which only tells me I have to connect to a USB cable. (and if I do, nothing else happens...).
So basically those methods don't work (despite what people say on the internet).
Can someone tell me what is the right methode to start up recovery mode on the XT701? It is a necessity to use because without it no one can flash, so please let me know asap.
From what I remember when I was using this phone, powering the phone on while holding the media button will get you to the /!\ symbol. Once there, then holding the volume up button and pressing the camera button SHOULD get you into the recovery menu.
If that's not working... then I got nothin. That's what I did to get into recovery. I just tested it on my old XT701.

The worst kind of brick.

Hello.
I have managed to brick my I8190N, by installing TWRP through this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager&hl=en
I can't access recovery, download mode, and I cant even get the phone to boot. When I hold down the power button, it displays the S3 Mini logo for a few seconds and then blacks out. After that, it wont show anything on the display even when I hold down the power button. But when I pull the battery and reinsert it, I can turn it on again for a few seconds.
The problem started with me installing Virginity V14 over CM 5.1.1 Then i couldn't get it to recovery mode anymore so I thought i'd reinstall recovery through TWRP MANAGER app from google play store. After that the phone went bricked. Also, my Home button and back button are not working, because the flex cable is broken. I used virtual buttons to emulate these. Now I've hears that you could get to download mode when holding vol dn + home+ power although i've gotten there with vol dn + power buttons before. So I would like to know shall I order new buttons from ebay, or what else are my possibilities of getting the phone working again.
ty in advance.
Fix the buttons!!
Fix the buttons dude!!

Question Won't acces recovery mode with keys/buttons

I am trying to get into recovery mode but my phone just doesn't seem to care at all. I tried all possible combinations and timings, it's just booting normal. Is this some security thing? How can I get into recovery mode?
Fully power off the phone
Once the phone is full shut off, wait 15 seconds
Hold down the volume up button first
Continue holding the volume button down and power the phone on, continue holding the key combination until the Samsung logo appears.
You should now be in recovery mode and can navigate using the volume keys up and down, power button to confirm.
You have got it plugged in to a PC via USB right? You can't do it now unless it is plugged in to a PC with USB

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
turn it of
press volume up and power button
insert usb cable from your laptop
keep holding those buttons
and you go to recovery
Thanks guys, the USB cable did the trick. But why is that? What an unusual way...
Just to be annoying!
