As title says, my power button piece some how broke off and I haven't really found a solution for it.
You can still turn on/ turn off the phone by having a thin rod or something and pressing it against the small button inside of the frame.
Tried looking for "plastic pieces for moto g6 play" and couldn't really find anything.
Thanks.
EDIT: I've lost the plastic piece

Hello All
I'm going to be replacing the mic on my blue angle so took the device apart have a quick look.
I've put it back together, but find the volume button/slider no longer works and is very loose, wobbling around. Obviously something has fallen out without me noticing. What is it which should be under the volume slider button?
Thanks for any help

hy y dont u try & reassemble it carefully
-------------------------------------------------
hop that helps
well i think you got the same case as mine, there's a little strip of plastic tab that connects itself to the push and pull button. Too bad its too small that upon reassembling, unnoticibly you will likely to bend it or cut it off. Mine's got cut so maybe you can replace the tab with a glued plastic tab of the same size.
Eyy
When i changed my xperia case i accidently broke my on/off button on the top.
So the only way to turn the device on is with a needle so i can stick it in, the stylus tip is just doesnt fit..
But my question is, where can i buy an on of button so i can solder of my old one and replace it?
Thank you
So yesterday my toddler son was playing with my Sprint Diamond when I saw him drop it onto the carpeted ground. The phone probably fell maybe about a foot but I guess the angle it hit the ground caused the battery cover to pop off.
When I picked up the phone, I noticed the screen was off and assumed it was in sleep mode because the battery didn't dislodge or anything. But when I pressed the power button, the phone wouldn't come on. I tried pulling the battery, hard resetting, etc but the screen still won't turn on.
While I was playing around with it, holding down the volume down button, power button and enter button at the same time, I could see the screen come on for a bit, then go blank again.
Physically there's no visible damage, there isn't even a scuff or scratch on the corners where the phone probably hit the ground. However, by some freak chance I think the fall caused something to go wrong internally, maybe the LCD digitizer became loose?
When I pull the battery and restart the phone, it vibrates as if it were powering up. But the screen never comes on.
Considering I don't have insurance on the phone, taking it back to Sprint is not an option and I'm out of the warranty period. Has this happened to anyone before? Any advice? Anyone have experience disassembling a Diamond? How hard was it? Thanks in advance.
the diamond (sprint) is a layered device.
you will need some very small screwdrivers lots of light and patience.
the screen is glued to the digitizer and the front housing, removal from the housing WILL crack it.
the boards and lower button pad con be removed safely, for inspection/reseating of plugs.
if the problem is not a loose plug,than a new screen and digitizer is in order and available on ebay from china
Ok got pissed off and now my volume buttons do not work.
Two questions
1. Good place to get replacement for those buttons
2. Registry entry to edit and lock volume at max
button board repair
I had a volume button issue as well before and looked for a button replacement. But when I took out the actual button, it was an easy fix for me.
Taking it out is easy breezy. Remove your battery back, battery, SIM card and pry open the bottom cover (a bit of force.. or youtube it). Remove all the obvious torx screws (including the kickstand) and you have clean access to the volume button board. Check this photo out: http://www.parts4repair.com/product_images/j/521/htc_hd7_volume_flex_cable_01__71999_zoom.jpg
All you have to do is disconnect the ribon cable (lift up the little plastic lock) and you can take out the whole button board. The board itself is a simple circuit. I pealed back the black tape (from both ends so I don't have to remove the tape completely) and cleaned the two silver button cones (the actual metallic cup thing that gives you the clicking) and the circuit board. When you put the tape back (check you alignment), just don't tighten the fabric so much the button is anchored too tightly to the board. Slip the puppy back in and you're good to go. Fixed my sticking/nonclicking/nonworking volume buttons.
Otherwise, last I checked, the button board is around $15 off the bay.
EDIT: might want to consider upgrading the microSD card too. I took open the buttom cover too much on one HD7 and the little clips eventually broke off. Just a thought.
Well I got pissed off with it changing volume up/town at will so a my one is broken now ...
Maybe I'll buy new one.
long story but i was trying to fix my rear camera lights and opened the phone up. when i popped off the volume/power ribbon from the mobo, it popped the part of the mobo the ribbon was attached to as well. i don't if i had a dud of a phone but there was literally no way in hell it was going to stay on the mobo because it was on the ribbon TIGHT and like connected to the mobo by a drop of glue. zero resistance when it came off.
anyway can i hook up my phone to my computer and boot it that way? surely there has to be a way to do this without the power button working.

There is a YouTube video on how to replace the power button and when he removed the power assembly you can see there is a small silver pressure button which is what the plastic hits. If you can touch and hold that with a pin it should start up. If it doesn't power up by depressing the silver button then you are going to need to replace the assembly itself as shown in the video. Keep the buttons though, I don't think they come with the power and volume assembly.
