InsertCoin Power Button

I'm on insert coin. What is supposed to happen when I press the power button? For me, it goes into a "screen capture" mode where pressing home rapid fires screenshots as many times I press Home. I have to press power again to sleep it.

it should turn the screen off when you just press the power button. when you hold it for 3sec then release, it will display the extended power menu (power off, hibernate, restart, etc) and when you hold the power button and press home, it takes screenshots of whats currently on the screen

Mine doesn't do that. It does what I said. How do I fix that?

BUMP - now it is random

Wipe and Reflash and see if that helps?

Recovery boot options

Can somebody refresh my memory on how to get the boot option for recovery and fast boot by just pressing the power button I'm currently running joker rom.

I'm mot aware if joker has the advanced power menu but most roms menu will come with those options if it doesn't come up with advanced power menu than the Rom doesn't have that mod

Press power and volume down until lights stop flashing. Release power button for a second while holding volume down then press and hold power again. Use volume to move and power to select.

[HOWTO] Enter recovery without root and without a USB cable

Found this very useful and thought I'll share. Could be a dup but didn't find one.
1. Unplug the power cord.
2. Press and hold the button on the bottom on the Nexus Player. As you’re holding the button, plug the power cord back in. Keep holding the button until you see “Google” on your TV screen.
3. Next, you’ll see a screen with an Android on its side, and the words “Normal Boot” at the top.
4. Press the button once. The text at the top will change to “Recovery mode.”
5. Press and hold the button for two seconds to select Recovery mode.
6. Press the button once.

TLDR: Pressing the button lets you navigate the bootloader menu and jump into recovery mode.

Safe Mode | Pie - MiUI 10

Hi,
Is this method working on Pie, MiUI 10?
I've tested both several times without access to Safe Mode.
Power on device
Step 1. Hold down the Power Button of your Android for one or two seconds. A small pop up menu will appear then on the screen.
Step 2. On that pop menu, press and hold Power Off for a few seconds. This will bring to you another pop-up menu confirming if you want to boot into safe mode. Press Ok to let the device know your confirmation.
Step 3. When you see in a small font Safe Mode written in the bottom of your Android, you will know that your device has a reboot in Safe Mode.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Power off the device
Step 1. Press and hold the power button
Step 2. When you see the Xiaomi logo release the power button, press and hold volume down button
Step 3. Release the button when you see safe mode on the bottom left corner.
Thank you

I have the same problem on miui 11

Power button taking screenshots

When I press my power button to shutdown the screen my phone takes a screenshot I've gotten to the point where I can do it any time I want.It still does the palm swipe and power and volume down screenshot. How do I make this go away?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Maybe the volume down button is permanently triggering.
Can you check your volume, if it sticks to a higher level?

Turns out I had a bad case.Take it off and it never happens so I enabled the double tap to shut the screen down.
