Hi everybody!
I checked through all threads here about my problem, but could not find a solution.
One day ago the battery of my tab ASUS TF700 fully drained.
So I connected the tab to the charger and in some time tried to turn on it.
Nothing happened, it just started vibrating constantly.
The only method helped me stop vibration is hard reboot (power + volume).
When I hold only power button it stops vibrating for a second, make short vibration, again pause and then starts vibrating.
Connection to the monitor by HDMI didn't show anything.
I didn't do any updates right before this accident.
No root, no unlocks etc.
Please help me, I am desperately frustrated.
PS. there are some old trends with the similar problems, but without solutions.

Can you boot into the bootloader?
Push and hold Volume Down (left side of the rocker) and Power. The tab should vibrate twice, let go when you see tiny script and three icons.
Push Volume Up with the RCK icon flashing. If you get an Android falling over with an exclamamtion mark, you're good: your stock recovery is working.
You probably corrupted your system when you let the tablet crash in the middle of something. If the stock recovery is still working you can re-flash the firmware. Let me know if you can get there and I'll tell you how.

Hi,berndblb!
Thanks for advise.
Unfortunately my asus doesn't stop vibrating when I push and hold Volume Down (left side of the rocker) and Power.
So there are two options:
1. If I push and hold Volume Down (left side of the rocker) and Power,
then it stops vibrating for a while, makes one short vibration and continues vibrating constantly without any interruptions.
2. If I push and hold Volume Up (right side of the rocker) and Power,
then it stops vibrating for a while, makes one short vibration and finanlly stops vibrating. One trick: I have to push and hold till the moment when the device makes one short vibration, and only after the moment when vibration stops finally I can release the buttons.
That is all I managed to discover pushing and holding buttons.
Sorry friend, I think your tablet is hosed....
Pushing Power and Volume Up (right side of the rocker) should get you into APX mode, which is usually the last thing working if everything else is messed up.
But even if you get to APX - it's useless unless your tablelt is unlocked and you previously created your device specific nvflash blobs.
I'm afraid a new main board is your only option....

I have finally won
The solution was simple:
1. I let the tablet vibrating till the battery totally discharged (it took the whole night).
2. Vibration of course stopped.
3. I charged the battery a little and switched on the tablet.
4. Tablet launched in normal regime, all data and system were saved, even after I tried to make a hard reset (I suspect it didn't work out).
After that it only once rebooted without any reason, but that's all.
So several days passed, the tablet works without any problems.

It is good to hear that you have your tf700 back....:good: Thanks for the report back...
BTW, are you going to unlock your device and generate the Nvflash blobs? If it occurred once, It could come back again and hope for lucks again...:laugh: Just my two cents..
Hi all!
Today I have noticed a very strange thing.
After 300+ hours of uptime, the volume keys stopped working.
I couldn't turn the ringtone's volume up or down, however I could take a photo with the volume buttons using the camera and I could also take a screenshot of the homescreen, but I couldn't turn the volume up or down.
This also happened a few weeks ago, after about 200+ uptime...
After a reboot, everything works fine!
I am on FULL STOCK 4.4.2!
Is it a software related bug or a hardware?
Has anybody face this issue?
Device: HTC One M8 running Liquid Smooth from may 13th.
This is rather odd - All day, my phone was working just fine. As I was listening to some music (through the speaker... or should i say speakers boomsoundhighfive:highfive, I pushed the power button to unlock the phone to text somebody, except all I could see was the music app (apollo) in the background with a dialogue saying that android system UI has stopped. Every time I hit "ok", it popped right back up. I'm assuming that that was because it was trying to restart, and it just kept crashing.
A bit later, it was still doing the same thing when all of a sudden I could no longer turn on the screen. However, my music is still playing, and I can control the volume with the vol buttons. The only other thing I can do is double tap the screen to get a bit of hepatic feedback from double tap to wake. Also, the low battery notification LED is now flashing, as it was at fairly low battery when this started (around 30, it's been about 45 minutes since this started).
I can't reboot through ADB as usb debugging isn't on, and I tried holding down the power button for about a minute with no luck.
Anybody got any advice? My current plan is to wait for it to die and hope it reboot normally... Otherwise I might boot straight into recovery and restore a nandroid...
Alright, sorry for creating this thread - it died, I plugged it in and turned it on. It appears to be completely working. Anybody know why this would happen? It seems a bit odd.
Hi,
This problem occurred about a week ago.
When I hold my volume up or down a few seconds to adjust the volume, suddenly the volume bar maxes out or hit the bottom and gets stuck there.
If I try to adjust it on-screen (without the buttons) like when it gets stuck at the maximum volume it jumps to the maximum volume again. (Same thing goes for the opposite).
Now About the power button.
It just doesn't work sometimes. Like it won't turn on my phone or turn it on.
BTW I changed my ROM to AOSP extended for about 2 or 3 weeks ago but this problem just happened as I mentioned before a week ago.
What should I do to fix this?
Thx in advance!
Your buttons are probably broken, go see a technician..
Hi, I started having the strangest issue 2 days ago. Phone model is Samsung Galaxy A50.
I have been unable to unlock my phone once I pressed the lock button or if it went to sleep (screen off).
The only way out of the issue is to restart it by pressing volume down and power for 5 seconds. I put the screen timeout to 10mins (which is the maximum). But no long term solution. Whenever the screen turns dark it stays dark. If a call comes in, the phone vibrates (or ring) but any interaction with the phone is impossible. If I play music, the music continues once the screen is off. The sound can be turned up or down, but it's the only thing that can be done.
While the screen is on, changing the volume via the buttons affects the actual volume of the music, but there is no UI indication that the volume changes, no popup nothing.
So all physical buttons are working correctly.
I have trie "reset parameters", I have tried "reset all data" (backed up everything through Smart Switch). It doesn't change a thing. The phone is reset (still on android 11 though, although I bought it on android 10...) but the issue remains.
Now something very interesting :
Just now, I setup Phone Link for windows 10, so that I am able to see and answer texts and phone calls while at the office. Which works, it sort of defeats the purpose of a "cellular" phone but well...
HOWEVER : while my phone is connected to my desktop through Phone Link. I can lock and unlock at will, change volume and see the UI pop up (via the windows interface or directly on the phone, same behaviour) It's basically fixed. I thought it was fixed for good, so I disconnected my phone from Phone Link. The screen went black as before and there was nothing I could do except reconnect it via Windows 10 (then it immediately starts behaving as usual again...).
My guess is it's definitely software. I just don't understand why a factory reset didn't do the trick...
I wanted to try and reset through the bootloader, but I never managed to effectively get into the bootloader (through volume up and power while the phone is off).
I do not recall making any updates or installing anything just before these symptoms occured. I did install a firmware update that was available after these symptoms started but to no avail
Has anybody seen this before ? Thanks in advance
