I installed JellyBam recently and the power button was working fine...after a while the power button started working with some difficulty...now i cant lock or unlock and im using the volume wake up setting.
Can anyone tell me how to make the button work again?
I read many threads about similar problems but couldnt find the solution.
Thanks.
Are you sure it isnt related with the button phisically?
Im asking because i never heard of such problem.
Are you having phone earpiece problems?
Try another rom

Yes, when I plug in the headphones they keep on plugging out.
....
i have the same problem, but it's true for all roms that i try.....maybe it's just a hardware problem....
anyways, i suggest remapping the gesture key as the lock button....at least the only problems you'll only have is that you have to do this everytime you flash a rom and that this will not work as the power button; meaning if you shutdown your phone, the only way to turn it on is by connecting it to a power source...
..then again, you can just get it fixed at a shop......
hope i helped a little
So I have been trying to overcome the issue of power + vol up (held for 10, 15 seconds\ and more) not working on my device. No matter how long I hold the two it just won't reset the device.
At first I figured it could be kernel as that is the lowest code that I've knowingly changed.
Changing to back to stock kernel did not fix it.
I thought it could be any sort of thing so I redownloaded the NL 434 firmware and then also universal generic 434 firmware and flashed back to completely stock with flash tool, doing all wipes and excluding nothing.
Neither of those firmwares fixed the issue, the hard reset function still won't work on my device.
Additional info:
Both buttons function fine individually and can see no obvious reason to suspect it's a hardware fault (though see that it is feasible, just less likely).
I can confirm that it was working initially.
I have an unlocked boot loader.
The last time I can remember it functioning was prior to boot loader unlocking - the first thing I flashed after unlock was cm10.1 and I got stuck in sideload mode with no hard reset to get me out lol
Otherwise the device is fully functional. For the time being I am back on KA07 xperia revolution rom, with advanced stock kernel (cwm) from DooMLoRD.
If anyone has any suggestions or insight it would be greatly appreciated if you'd drop a comment :good:
EDIT:
I've restored back to 350 with EMMA, but to no avail . It did however tell me that my boot version is : 1264-2309 S1_Boot_Lagan_1.0_2
Is there anyway to change the bootloader :S
After getting home I tried re-locking the bootloader which didn't work.
really starting to wonder if I should be taking it back in as hardware fault.. wonder how that will go since I unlocked the BL
If anyone would be so kind as to do a quick test for me, would you please be able to go into service mode (open dialer type *#*#7378423#*#*) then go into service tests and select the buttons and switches one (I think that's what it's called )
When you hold down the volume up or down button, is it registering as 1 press, or several, continuous presses?
Cheers

Not entirely sure what you are asking, keyboard and switch, volume up only shows as volume up and volume down as just volume down, regardless if you hold it down or press it over and over again, or if you just press it once. Not sure if I am an idiot, but I couldn't work out how to test the keyboard from there.Although one interesting part is that is states it is not a test for the softkeys, but tests them fine

Yeah that was the menu I meant.. couldn't remember lol. Ok so when I would hold down volume up it plays a repetitive tone and the text on screen states "vol up", then "vol up vol up" for the longer I hold it (and the beep/sound keeps replaying... confusing sounding I know
When you hold the volume up botton down, does it just beep once and display vol up (exactly like if you were to press it once and release)?
Basically if I were to press it once, the phone would make a sound and the screen would display "vol up"
If I hold it down however it will register as a new press and the "vol up vol up" texts keeps refreshing as-though it was a new key press.
Also thank you very much for checking it out :victory:

Yep exactly as you say here.
Volume up once shows just volume up beeps once, twice shows volume up twice and beeps twice . Holding it down beeps over and over again and shows volume up twice.
Pressing volume down once from here (volume up volume up) shows volume up volume down, press volume down once more now shows volume down twice.
Hope this helps

Yeah it helps that I can probably assume that my buttons work fine.. I was thinking maybe they weren't registering as long pressed or something but apparently not this is really frustrating. Especially when an app freezes and I just have to sit there indefinitely till it comes back online or the battery goes flat
And I have no idea if it's something I did or something with the phone.
All I know for sure is that brand new it did work as I hard reset a couple times. Then I unlocked the bootloader and have no memory of it working since then... It makes no sense to me why completely returning to stock and relocking the bootloader has no effect though.

Yeah, I could imagine. You will have to find a cool fast battery draining game to help you along .
Not sure that it would be related to you unlocking the boot loader, otherwise I am sure quite a few would have mentioned that before now.
Do you even get the first vibrate confirmation? Have you tested the vibrate from the same service test menu?

That what I'm thinking - can I seriously be the only one having this problem. And why the hell does everything else work perfectly fine lol.
And no I don't get any sort of response (vibration or anything). Normally it just results in the volume turns up then the screen locks or display just times out but even after a minute of holding pwr + vol up nothing happens and the phone is simply in sleep mode. Otherwise vibration works fine.. currently I'm restoring the backup I made of the out of the box stock rom.. that's pretty much the absolute last thing I can think of that might do anything. Trouble is I don't remember if I made the backup before or after unlocking the bootloader.. can't remember if I flashed a custom kernel to get CWM or installed it otherwise...

I would recommend re unlocking the bootloader, the problem is a kernel level driver or hardware but it is definitely around that level.
Did you have any problems, or errors when you first unlocked the bootloader? Maybe Doomlord could give you some of his incredible knowledge on the subject

No the phone is 100% operational outside of the hard reset not working. It is just when I get stuck in a app that freezes or when CWM recovery tricks out and freezes I have to leave the phone for ages till either it a)unfreezes after an hour or so somehow, or b) the battery dies and it shuts off after a couple or more hours.
When your phone is out of action every second day simply cause you can't turn it off it gets pretty annoying haha. If it had a removeable battery I could easily live with it and just rip the batt out no dice.

Stranger still is that I've began to notice that in flash mode the LED briefly flick green once then turns off when entering flash mode. Flash mode is still active, it just appears as though the phone is off :/
I purchased a NEXUS 6 six months ago and since the 5.1 update and have a problem with volume bar , namely: the bar volume goes in to vibrate mode without doing anything and so remains , trying to lift up to a certain volume control level bar all at that point remains . If you had gender issues .... how to solve? I

I'm not 100% clear on your question but my best guess was that you're dealing with the volume rocker sticking. ???
That's why I linked you to the other thread with a, albeit a bit silly, simple solution.
As for gender issues, that's a bit out of my area of expertise.
You see in the screen shot: I can`t move the bar to raise the volume. I have to reset my phone

I'm sorry for my confusion, which is why I'm asking so many questions. So, if you raise the volume, with the volume keys, the volume lowers again without touching the buttons? Are you keeping the phone in your pocket? Or does it lower again immediately after raising it?
it dosen`t move at all with my finger and the side buttons. i have to restart the device for the volume to work. not all the time, like 5 or six time a day . I will make a video and post here

How did you get the 5.1 update? OTA, sideload or factory image? I would suggest backing up your data, unlocking the bootloader, and flashing the factory image. If the problem persists after flashing the factory image, then it's probably a hardware issue. At that point, you could return for warranty service.
I had the same issue yesterday with my new one day old nexus 6 that was updated to 5.1 with OTA. The volume slider is stuck and will not move. I know the volume rockers work as if I push vol up or down the on screen volume slider appears...it just doesn't move. A quick reboot of the phone fixed it for me and I haven't seen it since. But please note I literally only had this phone for less than 24hours
i get the update from google official. can you be more specific what shall I do?

Based on the other user that commented, I'd say this is a bug. You can flash a factory image, which will probably fix it.
I think is a bug in the android with this volume bar. Mine to, I have to reboot the device but still

Flash system.img and userdata.img (or data factory reset in recovery) in fastboot and reboot, that should fix it. If not, then its a hardware issue.
Hi, I wanted to ask if in your p9 the volume button wobbles
Yes, compared to the power button the volume button is a little loose but I don't think it's defective...

Thanks, I thought it was a problem only of my device :good:
The volume when you press the keys lowers normal or suddenly? I noticed this flaw, sometimes lowers and raises normally at other times just press and it also lowers too.
no one else noticed this bug?
Mine wobbles too, but power is more ridged.

So it is a problem of all!
And sometimes when you press the volume buttons it rises and falls abruptly?
I've tested five different devices in five different stores and all of them had nearly the same loose volume button. So I think it's a general "problem". This is not a good build quality for this price.
Abrupt volume rising generally appears when the phone was set to mute or vibration by the quick settings shortcut. As soon as you hit the volume button the volume jumps back to the level it was before the phone was muted.
My volume button doesn't wobble.
And it happens this problem? Of course I do not keep the buttons pressed. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=neGc3-aMjss

Well, this looks definitely like a bug! That's not normal and has nothing to do with the feature I mentioned before.
Did someone with the loose volume key try to replace his phone on warranty?
Is this really a defect or do we have to live with it?

I have not asked for a replacement. I have the gray version, why?
The problem creates youtube, if you end app and delete data of the app the volume returns to work properly ...
Is normal
Mine is P9 gold and has also loose volume key . It is a normal behavior
I also have the loose volume button. (mine is EVA-L19)
I asked the store about the issue and they showed me a couple of devices. All of them have had the same button. Don't worry about it. My previous Honor 7 had the same issue.
Hi all,
Now I am facing an annoying issue, the phone usually does not wake up after pressing the power button, however, the phone still active while the screen is black (i.e. long press on the power button makes a vibration because of the power menu which should be appeared, when I press volume buttons I hear the volume change sound ... etc.). It may wake up after a while, and sometimes I have to restart the phone in order to make a call, for instance.
After months of using Neo's Resurrection Remix, which was working smoothly until a week ago, I have installed Lineage 15.1 yesterday freshly, and still facing this issue. Moreover, I don't use any kind of screen protectors or covers.
Anyone have faced it before? Should I try a custom kernal? Or go back to the stock ROM? Or it is a hardware issue (I wish it is not :crying?
Thanks in advance guys,
Regards.
Loose internal cable, I think? Yep, probably hardware issue. Did you drop it recently?
