From about week onwards i am getting this problem.power button is nt workn as previous.Phone automatically get the signal of long press power button.it means automatically it asks "power will be turned off,and you may lose data if...".and also when i press power button it doesnt goes to standby mode.when i long press the power button sometimes it doesnt switch off..As i think the power button dnt work as normal or may it seems that power button keep pressed internally
This was my problem.i went to HTC agent and they said the motherboard has a issue.it may be caused to water drop.and they told it cant be repaired and i shoold replace the motherborad and the MB will cost like hell..
Now i need help of ur guys.
1.) Is there any software to disable the power on/off function?
2.) Or is there any method to automatically press "no" of power off msg when it appears.
Sorry for my bad English ..pls help me..
you have already started a thread regarding your power button HERE ...bad net manners, contact the mods and ask them to close one...
Anyways, from your post, you cannot go into standby mode because of the faulty power button...
So here's what you do, download Pocket Device Power Manager OR psShutXP and install on the mobile...
With this, you will have the standby option available without having to press the power button...
Hope that helps...
Thnx dude.. Sorry for opening a new thread.
Dude still i have a problem..it is 4n automatically prompts the shutdown msg ( power will be turned off...Yes/no) when i am using the phone.i have to press no to use the 4n when it appears.this is a headache to me..is there anyway to diisable this msg or to automatically get press "no" when it appears.
why not try and map the Power button, Long_Power.lnk to another application??
The mapping process is explained HERE ...I think that will help stop that "power will be turned off...Yes/no" message...
Just my 2C's, i am really not sure about this though...
Thnx Dude..it seems to be working..but i need a another small help regarding this..tell me a some kind of an app dat should be mapped to this long power key.the app should not load any true application.it should be just a shortcut.Otherwise behalf of the Power off msg that applicaion will open..it will be another problem.If u can provide me a shortcut which do not actually open any application. i am noob for this..thats y i am asking everything.thnx in advance
pls can any1 help me..can any1 write me a small app dat do not do anything..it means it should not prompt any error msg or do not do anything.i want only a program to work with power button.it means to remap the power button to dat application
no1 can help me?? pls help
Hi everyone,
I was using my nexus one with low battery, and then it shut down.
I went back to car, attached it to the recharger, and pushed power button.
At this point it turned on and a setup similar to first boot appeared (selection of language, date & time, google account)..
Once the setup was completed, I pressed the home button and associated it with Launcher Pro.
At this point a popup message appeared, saying (translated from italian):
"Sorry! Sudden interruption of the application Launcher Pro (process Android.process.acore). Retry.", with a button named "Retry".
- If I press the "Retry" button, the same popup message appears on and on again.
- If I shut the phone down and restart it, it asks for the SIM pin, the unlock pattern, and then the popup message appears again and again..
- I can't access the menu through the button, and I am stuck in this situation!..
- I tried to uninstall Launcher Pro via appbrain about two hours ago, but with no luck..
Any help would be much appreciated..
Thanks!

Assuming you aren't rooted, I just want to let you know you always have the last resort of resetting the phone back to default, so the phone itself is still fine.
With root, you can ADB and remove LauncherPro.
Hi cigar3tte,
I'm not rooted, so I could "reset the phone back to default".
Do you mean reset it to factory default (aka hard reset)?
Note: If I press the menu button at the bottom of the device, nothing happens and the popup keeps showing up
However, the procedure I found for the hard reset is this:
"With the phone shut off, while holding down the volume button on the side of the N1, press the power button briefly while maintaining the volume button pressed in for around 5-10 seconds.
You should be presented with a menu that allows for: Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock. You can release the volume button at this time.
Select Clear storage with the volume button up and down, then press and release the power button to make the selection.
It will ask you to confirm this decision. Press the yes button using the volume up."
Should i proceed so?
Thanks!

Yes, I meant a factory reset. Before doing so, check for any data you might want to save.
As for the method, what you found should work fine. I've never done a hard reset from the default recovery. I've only done it from the phone itself (which you can't access) and custome recovery.
Hi cigar3tte,
I followed your suggestion and did the shut-off-and-on procedure.
After that, I was asked to complete the initial configuration (time, google account, etc). and I am now on the home screeen!
Thank you so much for your help!
For future reference, you would probably have been able to fix this without wiping... turn the phone on, then when the X appears hold the trackball, it should boot in safe mode and you can remove/clear data as needs be.
AuraxTSense ROM - I know someone having this issue, anything they can try short of full wipe?
I have bought a Second hand Ativ S and it turned out to be dev unit, it worked for the most part(occasional crashes), but recently it broke.
After it boots it gets me to a blue screen and then powers off. I can still access the download mode and the system files via USB. But I want to do a factory reset of some sort or at least be able to use it.
Can someone help me out with this? Is there a possibility to re flash it? or is there a combination of buttons i don't know about?

have tried to hard reset the phone by this steps?
If you can't access your phone's Settings page:
1.Turn off your phone.
2.Turn on your phone again by pressing the volume down button until you see the exclamation mark
3.Then, reset the phone by pressing the following four buttons in this order: Volume up, Volume down, Power, Volume down.
4.Your phone should now reset and restart itself. (It might take a while for the process to complete.)
And it didn't work for you? If not you have go to a Samsung store, probably they will flash you a normal OS to your phone...

I've tried that...it didn't work. I've also went to Samsung and apparently it made it worse. Initially my problem had a blue screen after booting but after I took it back from service the blue screen has disappeared and now the phone just powers down after the boot. THe guys at Samsung told me that the don't have the device number in their database and that the cannot do anything to it....so i'm hopping that some tool will pop-up and I'll be able to flash the device from home.
Also being an Engineering unit when I power the device based on your description it doesn't show me an exclamation mark it just goes dark and if i hook it up to the pc it shows as mass USB storage, and I can access the files on it. So there is something i'm missing for this device in particular.
Thanks anyway for your support.
Thank you again Jackson5...Really...Thank you, i've almost lost hope...after seeing your post and replying to it I said ....what the heck...lets try that again, and it worked...not with your steps exactly...I put the phone into a charger and it started to power up...Windows logo power down..and again power up and shutting down....Meanwhile I pressed Up on the volume and the exclamation mark appeared. and from there, suffice to say that I have a phone, again. So Thanks again
AW: Ativ S Blue Screen After Boot
I'm glad to hear that your phone is running again...
Sent from my GT-I8750 using Board Express
Same problem, help...
It seems Ive got the same problem with my Ativ S, I've tried everything and nothing is working...
Sorry, but can you tell me what buttons exactly and in what order did you press to get to the exclamation mark screen, please? I am sorry but I really cannot understand your explanation (your post) very well, you said:
"Windows logo power down..and again power up and shutting down....Meanwhile I pressed Up on the volume..."
Do you mean logo + power or logo + power + volume down or something else? I cannot understand the part "again power up and shutting down" either...
Thanks

If the phone powers down due to blue screen or any other problem you might encounter, connecting it to a power source will make your phone restart...so basically what happens is the Phone powers up reaches the error and shuts down, but because is plugged to a power source it will power back up. So while you are plugged with the device keep pressing those buttons... Having a Dev unit apparently it worked with the Vloume Up ...
-Press the Volume Down Key + Power Key to turn on the unit
- Still hold the volume down key, the release Power Key.
- Wait for the startup screen booting with an exclamation mark " ! " then release the volume down key.
- Press the following buttons in the following order: press the volume up (high volume key) ==> press volume key down (low volume key) ==> press the power key ==> press volume down key.
- Wait a moment and look at the screen, a message such as loading new software will start the hard reset process

Cheers, I'm stuck in here and i can't get further.
My machine is an T899 Engineering version
I was browsing the internet and my phone stopped responding and rebooted in to hboot. Now I can't select anything to get out. When I press the volume up key the selection moves downward and the vol down key isn't responding at all. The power button doesn't respond however, it does power down the device if I hold it. If I try to turn it back on, it just goes straight in to hboot. Also my pc doesn't see it in adb or fastboot. Have you guys seen anything like this? Any suggestions? thanks for your help.
Maybe your phone itself crashed not the software , the hardware I mean . Maybe ask your phone seller for help
Hi guys, as the title says i need to disable the volume + key on my phone cause its broken and it keeps increasing the volume. i managed to change the action of the button when pressed with an app for remapping and root, but since the app auto starts with the os, every time i reboot the phone i get stuck in the recovery for hours till i manage to get out.
So my question is simple, is there a way to disable permantely the button, so that as soon as the phone boots it doesnt detect the key to open recovery and just go to system?

The problem is hardware, you can disable it once on the rom but not on the boot.
Try removing the button or opening the device to fix it.
