Urgent Help Needed.
Device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000
Out of a sudden on power-on the screen doesnt respond. It boots up fine however I cant slide to unlock... the menu, home and search buttons dont work either. Only the Power and volume buttons work. Tried to do a hard/factory reset, When in restore mode (Hold down on Volume Up button and power button) I can toggle the options with the volume up/down button but when I need to select/enter, the home button doesnt work so I cant make the selection to hard reset.
Also tried to connect via KIES but it doesnt work either.
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers!
Have you tried using the power button as enter? Know that's how it works in CWM.

Then??after that???
The rom pre installation dialog will come up and ask you for various options like wipe dalvik cache
And then just click OK
But I can't guarantee you that this will work!!
How did you broke your power button

I know of a method to remap your Power key to one of the volume keys, and one of the volume keys to the Search key. However, this remapping only sticks when the phone is booted into ICS. AFAIK the remapping won't help you once you're in the bootloader and trying to access recovery. It also requires root, which you said you don't have...
If you're still interested in this, PM me, and I'll edit this post with the aforementioned method.

Huh??I dont know....woke up from sleep...I cant use anymore..so sad..nexus s super fast phone
mine just crapped out too! what rom/kernel were you using? I recently installed pixie's and glados. The weird thing is that I can turn on the phone using the power button, but once on the power button does nothing.

use all wake apps from market to wake your phone using volume button..
to turn off your phone use screen off from market..

seems like my button just died completely. I was using stock for a while and the power button was acting up. Then I rooted and went with pixie, and this solved the power button issue. Then just yesterday it acted up again and today it was really erratic. and now it's pretty much dead. if you google "nexus s power button" you will see many people affected by this in the past few days.
i have the same problem, my power button is broken also cant bring it to the repair centre because i imported my phone. But as long as you already have clockwork recovery working properly, you can do pretty much anything: installing custom roms etc etc, in normal usage i use the app "fix broken power button" and that works flawleslly even on ICS.
and if you havent got clockwork recovery, i think there was a way to install it via adb fastboot, not sure how though....
Any idea how to root without power button??
Anyone willing to help me??
I can help
I too have a broken power button, and for me fastboot does not even work!
I have found a solution a made a script that all you need to do is launch with your PC! (credits to saurik for the exploit)
Hope this will help you
All you need to do, is run the script! Then, plug-in your phone (needs to be on with USD ADB DEBUG ON) and done!
You can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?qhefhtgs20fdtsd
This will root your phone, and then you can afterwards flash ClockworkMod from the market and then reboot into recovery =)
A work of advice though, make sure to install CyanogenMod7 which has an option to unlock with volume button!
Peace be with you
Unable to enter download mode or recovery mode on my galaxy R.
Wanted to install CWM and root.
Is there any other way to enter download mode apart from pressing the 3 buttons ?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

I don't think it will help. If you cannot enter DM/RM
DM - Volume Down + Home + Power
RM - hold Power button (until splash screen), then release power and press Volume Up + Home
go to your service place and ask for replacement.

Apologies. I thought it might.

come on, no need to apologize I guess jig would do the trick on galaxy S, or S2 but it
works kinda weird on SGR. For example once I as flashing FW via Odin and installation stopped for some reason. I had to reboot. Of course I couldn't boot the system, so I used usb jig -same ****....Thanks God 3keys combination worked as usual so I could reflash FW.
Raul15 it's a serious hw-issue if you cannot enter any of those modes, imagine if you mess up with something then you're screwed with no chance to recover and voided guarantee. I would ask for replacement.
ok.

Working good. :good: Thnx a lot....
I'm rooted, unlocked, & ran the clock work recovery tool. My only question is I can not enter boatloader mode using the power button & volume down key. Phone just always just shuts off. Any suggestions ? Thnx

app called quickboot
To get to the bootloader, you have to hold the volume down button then power. Hold it til the bottom 3 buttons stop flashing. Then release the power button while still holding the vol down button.
Yea didnt want the app. Thanks just wasn't letting go of power button at proper time.

If your phone is already booted you could always download "Quickboot" from the Market. Of course, I believe you need to be rooted.

i have an LG Optimus SOL E730....
sometimes you just have to press it for 1 minute ongoing
My phone's touchscreen suddenly stopped working, so I couldn't access my phone.
Please help me with this, all important things are on my phone :crying:
What shoul I do?
Try to backup all the data using pc.. if you sre sure its not a hardware problem.. try resetting your phone by putting your mobile to recovery mode. Generally switching off and pressing pwr +volume up+ plus home button works
Navigate to reset phone by volume keys and press pwr button...
