my asus power turn off and i need to turn on every hour
why?
my power save setting its not set.
Well,
- Have you changed the rom?
- This is a new device, or used?
- When do you recognized this problem?
- You got this problem when the device is on the charger?
- Maybe the device got some water, sweat, or vapor?
- Try to remove the battery for 1-2-3 hours, then put it back and try to full charge the batt.
- Try to do a ROM update, with an official ROM.
After this, tell if the problem is still.
lvikel2, hopefully you mean real shutdown - not the sleep mode. I write so because you mentioned power saving for some reason.... So let's talk about the situation when your battery is fully charged.
Prior flashing the device and removing battery for several hours you should check one little thing - a small switch hidden under the battery unit cover. The cover has a special flange which pushes the small switch when the cover is closed properly. If the flange is broken or the switch under it is not good - you will get spontaneous shutdowns.
i have the same problem. I tried putting a small paper in that small switch and it helped me for a month again its happening. whats the use of that switch anyway. can i take it off. Pls reply me at [email protected]
I had this problem too. My P525 works fine until few days ago ... i drop it(i think this is then it bagin) but everything else is working good it dont suspend etc.. so back to my problem a pice of paper on battery probably slov turn off problem but some times device go to sleep mode (like you if puch power buton).
i have this problem too, any solution?

Well my HTC Fuze works fine for about a year and half. However, idk how or why now my HTC Fuze power button on the top is not working. The only way to make it go to sleep mode if I let my phone turn of by itself in 1 min. Also, the only way to turn it on by slide the phone.
If anyone might know what cause the problem please help me.
Get xda shutdown or a similar app to turn the device off. There are a bunch of software options for putting the device to sleep, turning off the dispay, and shutting it down.
Same here but...
Same here but....
I have xda shutdown already, and when I Shutdown the phone it turn on again by itself.
I'm having the same exact problem! My Fuze has worked great for two years and all of a sudden a few days ago, the power button wont work. And my battery drains like crazy! It'll only last me 4 hours max... Any fixes on this? I've scoured the net and have seen that people have similar problems as this before; however, I haven't seen any fixes on it yet......
Possible solution power button problem Touch pro/Fuze?
I had the same problem on my Touch Pro, but now my power button seems to work again. I thought the problem might have to do something with my sim or my sd-card. The possibility of the sim as root of the problem was mentioned on this forum somewhere. The micro-sd card was just a guess. I had a lot of programs installed directly on the card, so when I did a hard-reset, these were still on there. If the problem would be on the micro-sd card, a hard reset would not help.
What I did was this. I removed the micro-sd card, the battery and the sim. I just pulled them out, since I wasn't able to turn the device off properly.
After that I only put back the battery and the device turned on automatically or I did it with the reset button on the bottom of my tp (I don't remember). Of course it showed the missing sim icon on top of the screen when turned on. The power button still didn't function at this moment.
I was a bit disappointed and inserted the sim, micro-sd card and battery again (I believe in this order). Lately, because of the power button problem, my tp turned on once the battery was inserted but this time it didn't. So I was pissed off that now my device wouldn't even turn on.
But to my surprise I could turn my tp on with te power button. Right now I can use the button just like before, it works fine!
Because I only tried this a few minutes ago I cannot tell you anything about the battery drain some of you and I experienced. And ofcourse I can't tell you if this is this is a permanent fix. I'm afraid to do a reset right now
I don't know why this worked for me and if it will work for you, but you can at least give it a shot right?
In short, what I did was this:
Pull out battery, sim and micro-sd card
Put back in the battery
Device will turn on automatically or turn on device with a reset (it will show the missing sim icon on top of screen)
Wait untill device is turned on properly
Pull out battery
Insert sim, micro-sd card and battery again
Turn on device with power button
If it won't work, maybe you can change the order of removing/inserting battery, sim and micro-sd card.
Good luck!
I was shocked to find a thread here of exactly the same issue I have, on the first page :O Few months back the power button stopped working altogether, so I resorted to using AEButton Plus to map double end call as the suspend power button, but now I have the issue of not being able to turn my phone off as whenever I do, the phone just turns itself back on again! At first I thought it was an issue with the internal mechanisms of the hardware button itself being jammed in place, but after reading this thread I'm starting to have doubts. I also experienced the battery drain problem with the phone rarely lasting 6 hours in standby, although a recent hard-reset and it shows that the battery drainage is around 170mAh with the screen on.
Been trying the above solution but to no avail ;( the phone keeps turning on by itself whenever I insert the battery, no matter the order.
All seems to you all have a HARDWARE problem.
Did you talking/using your PDA on rain/snow?
Maybe it make a some kind of short circuit?
Probobly the best way is carry your PDA to a service...
Yeah I've been pretty sure it's a hardware problem. I've hard-resetted and reflashed different ROMs and yet the problem persists. I don't remember getting the TP wet at all, but who knows. I don't know of any HTC service centers around here (Brisbane, Australia), so I've been looking for a way to fix this myself. No luck yet.
If you have skills to open Touch Pro you can probably do it at home.
Probably you must change flex:

This is not my item, I just simply shows how it looks this item.
I had the same problem.
My solution seems a bit unorthodox but it has always worked for me.
Slide your phone open, and flip it so it is facing screen down. You will see there is space between the power button and the phone. Put your mouth near that opening and breathe for 30 seconds to a minute. If the power button isn't working by the next day, repeat the process. The condensation from your breath does..well...something. And presto chango, it works again. The power button issue has happened about 3 times to me and doing this has always fixed it without fail.

In exhaust is moisture.
And then people say that the phone had no contact with the water... :/
Hi,
hoping someone can give some advice as I'm running out of ideas. Essentially what happens is that my Desire S powers off whilst I am using it, mostly whilst I am navigating through the phone or using any kind of App (not always immediately, but always after a few minutes). I can power it up again afterwards but it will not boot up all the way & instead powers off again. However, if I connect it to a power source it will power up all the way again and it also doesn't power off whilst I use it and it is connected to a cable power source. So far I have:
- Bought a new battery
- Placed folded paper on battery
- Done a Factory reset (everything is stock, phone hasn't been rooted)
Through all of this the problem has continued. Another weird thing that has been happening whilst all this is going on is that the phone seems to have issues keeping the date & time synced. It sets the date to some day in 1980 & time is also incorrect. I have to manually set the date & time as it doesn't correct itself over time.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Hi guys, here is my problem, diagnosis performed (thanks to other threads on this forum) and conclusion.
Looking for a peer review to make sure I'm on the right track and not missed anything.
Much appreciated
Issue:
random shut down during regular use
phone outside warranty.
Symptoms:
no warning, errors or app closure before shut down
always a hard shut down. no reboots.
will usually not power up again unless connected to charger
when it does power up without charger, it will almost immediately shut down again
irregular battery % display eg.
-before shut down will show 80%. On power up with charger, will show 55%.-another eg. shut down at 80%. On power up without charger, will show 15% then immediately shut down again. On power up again (without charger) will show 65%
phone unusable. max usage is prob 20min before shut down.
issue coincided with upgrade to Android Lollipop
no signs of overheating or 'lumps' in the back
Diagnosis:
assuming v5.0 upgrade being the cause, waited till v5.0.1 and ugpraded (Without factory reset). problem persists
factory reset to v5.0.1, problem persists.
flashed android kitkat using the image off the android dev site, problem persists.
visually checked power button for any signs of 'sticky button' syndrome but button look and operate as expected
running with most frequently recommended 'battery saving tips' applied
conclusion:
Faulty battery cell. looking to perform something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSGNUrpwIno
thoughts?
Change battery?
that was the conclusion. thanks.
Fixed?

I assume that this solved the problem? Was it a difficult replacement/repair? I am having a very similar issue, except is it coincident with (and I'm unsure if caused by or not) an upgrade to Android M (6.0 and 6.0.1).

Changing the battery in incredibly easy in my opinion. I watched several different Youtube videos and, when I found the clearest one I could, I followed along with the video to disassemble my phone. Having the right tools will help a lot.
Hi there,
I have been struggling with a problem the last few days, and have been reading quiet a lot. I got two old Nexus 5 phones, one had a broken screen, the other one had the display glitching problem - related to the flex cable. So I opened them and put a working one together out of both.
So far so good, everything seems to be working, with one exception: Once I press the power button, the screen goes black like its supposed to. If I wait long enough and try to wake the phone, its not responding. The only thing that helps is long-pressing the power button to hard reboot it.
So I did read a lot, about the power button malfunctioning and the batteries dying on the Nexus 5. I ruled out the power button problem and its working like it should. I ordered a new battery, which is not perfect, but has an estimated of 1800 mAh. I monitored the voltage of the battery with different apps, even logging them to see what happens right before the shutdown - but everything seems normal. So this could not be the problem either.
I am currently running the latest LineageOS, but I experienced the same problem running the latest factory image google released for the phone. I even tried different kernels. So I thought, it might not be software related. But since it always happened when the phone starts to enter the deep sleep , I tried to google some about this and found the SOD ( Sleep of Death ) problem for the Nexus 4. Since I was out of ideas, I installed an App called "SOD Killer", which creates a wake lock preventing the device from sleeping. Et voila - the problem is gone.
I could not find discussion on the internet relating to the nexus 5 concerning the sleep mode and the phone dying once it goes to sleep. Am I missing something here? The SOD Killer wake lock solution is a good temporary fix, but I would like to get to the grounds of this.
Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this strange behavior? Thank you in advance,
joha
What I forgot to mention is that once the phone is connected to a power source, the problem does not appear. That is also the reason why I wont get any logs via adb. ;p
I will try to get some logs with an APP and root once I get home - maybe there is some information about the problem causing this strange behavior.
I managed to get a log while the phone died when it wanted to activate sleep mode. But I am not that good in figuring out what in the log might be pointing in the direction of the failure. Any ideas?
I dont like the
Code:
09-21 12:11:51.977 E/BatteryStatsService( 786): no controller energy info supplied
parts in there. What might be the problem here?
Thank you so much in advance!
Does no one have any idea? I guess its hardware related somehow, when the phone tries to enter deep sleep. Anybody out there that knows, what the phone is actually doing when entering deep sleep which might be causing it to die / become unresponsive? Any idea is highly appreciated - I love that phone.
I tend to use my pad for traveling mostly, so it has been unused for about 6 weeks.
I turned it on a couple of days ago and all was fine until overnight it went into a reboot loop (or so I thought).
The following day it was dead, so I recharged it (during which it was rebooting constantly).
It would reboot every 10-15 seconds, even it it was in Recovery or FFBM mode.
The fact that it would reboot whatever mode it was in meant (IMO) that it was a hardware issue and not a software one, and the likely culprit was the power button. (It was acting like the power button was constantly depressed).
Using a pin I was able to lift the power button slightly and sure enough the pad booted and showed that it had pretty much fully charged even whilst rebooting.
As soon as I removed the pin it went straight back into a reboot loop.
Does anyone have any ideas how i may proceed to fix this issue? (It may even just be a humidity issue on the fingerprint sensor as I live in a highly humid country.)
I can't even work out the best way to open the case as there don't seem to be any tear-downs..
Thanks
Mine happen same issue with this, solve it by using
Step 1 : Spray 3M™ Quick Drying Contact Cleaner 16-102, around the Power Button Area.
Step 2 : Apply 3M™ AR-100 Anti-Rust lubricant.
So far after 1week, not more repeated
