Because it sounds like a hardware issue.
You will have to RMA it. Have you spoke to ASUS support? Likely you'll need to pay the Motherboard repair fee as well

Turn off the tablet normally. Then plug in the AC adapter. Plugging it in to charge should turn on your tablet without you having to press the power button at all. Try turning it on that way and see if it stays on.

Well it does turn on when i use the cable
But i still dont know how to fix the button problem

Does your power button still "click" up and down when you press it ? because mine got stuck in the down position which might cause it to reboot over and over but not shutdown? Does it vibrate when you release the button before it turns itself off or just instant dead screen?

No . it does click and when i release it , it shutsdown amidetly like the power is out wich is realy wieed

Really sounds knackered. Seriously give ASUS a call

well i would but the tablet is unlocked so i have no warrenty .

You do, but they'll likely try to get you to cough up for a new Motherboard.
So on the sounds of it you'll either have to do that to fix it, give up on it and sell as broke, or see if a local comp shop can open it up and see if there is a faulty connector to the power switch.
Unless anyone else has a solution, but it sounds hardware based to me

You seem out of luck but have you tried keeping it pluged in for a long period of time and maybe repetitively pressing the power button really hard to see if you can lossen it up a bit. Also you can turn it on using the cord correct? What happens when you unplug it? You lose power?

How to power up a Nexus S without Power button.

Hi guys,
A friend of mine has his power button broken and his Nexus powered off.. So he can't boot it up or everything else. Is there any way I can fix the problem for him? The phone is actually a brick without purpose.
I'm wondering if I can fix it without sending it to Samsung customer care..
Did you pull battery out and then plug charger in? Sometimes that works.

Try charging the battery, could be something kept your phone awake until a full drain and now it doesn't have enough juice to boot up.

1) Try a different charger and cord.
2) Take your battery and have it tested to make sure its good.
3) Wiggle the USB connection to see if there's any looseness. It should be solid.

Well I let it charge for a few hours. But the problem starts when i put in the battery it will boot to the second samsung logo and then a little white line flashes across the bottom and it shuts off and starts vibrating. Idk if i can get into download mode im on vacation and only have my tab and my phone.

If you get to the second logo you should be able to get to recovery, see if you can get there and let it stand for a bit and if it wont crash.
Charging solved the issue at first and you managed to boot up or just got past the first samsung logo?
If after the second logo it restarts and does it all over again its definitely a stuck power button.

With the charging i was able to boot. I tryed getting into recovery and it almost does but then there's that white line that flashes and my phone turns off and vibrates until i pull the battery.

It's a really weird issue, if the line was in the middle I would say it's the crt off animation but you said it's at the bottom. If you can try getting into download mode and see if it hangs.
Any chance you can get a video of the issue and upload it?
Just in case try playing with you power key to make sure it's no the issue.

I just shut down my phone and held the power button, it gets to the second samsung logo, crt off animation and starts vibrating. So it's definitely a stuck power button, the rest is up to you, whether you play with it from the outside or take apart the device and try to clean it.
Edit: when you see this you should change your youtube title to: skyrocket stuck power button
So other people with this issue can find it.
Also vincom when you see this you should link this video in the proper location for an example to a sticky power key.
theres a couple of links in the info section from my first link in my sig which might have a solution for the op, and it does look like its definite sticky power button issue since the phone turns on by itself w/out touching the power button when reinserting the battery, and i added the video link

[Q] HELP!! Samsung Galaxy Sl wont boot! Can someone help me??

Phone details:
Samsung galaxy sl GT-I9003
stock rom DDLF2
Stock kernel
No root
No OC
Details of the issue:
i charged my phone overnight and when i turned it on,it came upto the samsung screen and the screen vanished and it hasnt been able to boot up since,i tried to drain the battery overnight but that didnt seem to help either,its stuck at this blank screen.
I tried reinstalling the battery too but the phone would automatically start up,i could manage to enter the download mode for like 3 secs ,i connected it to my pc via USB but it recognized it but couldnt install the drivers in such a short time,odin doesnt recognise it either
Here is what happened when i took it to the samsung service centre:
The service guy there told me that the hardware is perfectly normal and he checked it infront of me,he told me that the charging pin is slightly damaged but the phone charges without any issues,software couldnt be analyzed but the last time i checked it had the value pack DDLF2 installed so i dont think that would be the problem.The guy told me that the charger pin is connected to the motherboard and may prevent the kernel from booting which i think is just too DUMB even as an excuse .The phone automatically tries to turn on without me pressing the power key when i insert the battery.
I need help PLEASEEE
Thanks in advance
I think it's hardware-based problem. Better check it to legitimate samsung service center.

I cant flash any firmware,the screen fades away before odin can establish a decent connection
If the phone is getting automatically on there is some problem with the power button its pressed too much and I think the phone is restarting because there maybe some loose connection between your battery and the phone

if your phone automatically tries to power on as soon as you insert battery then it might be your Power button problem...
btw lets just consider this case.. what happens when your phone(battery inserted) is connected to charger... how does the screen behaves and what you see on the screen?

The service centre guy tried the power button as a few times and fixed it up by disassembling the device
When i connect the phone with battery into the charging port it behaves in the same manner ,it would automatically turn on and the screen logo (Samsung ....) would then disapper and there would be a blank screen in its place for like ever till it charges (i cant really tell when its charged)

Button prob fix?

I have my O1 for 2 years now, unfortunately i pressed my off button and up volune too hard when soft brick my phone about months after buying. Its still functioning if i pressed hard enough. Now its worsening, is there any way I can fix it? I have tools to open it.
Just a thought. Sorry if there is a previous thread as this, but i search already and theres none.

This might help.
Buttons do have the maximum amount of clicks. Thats why they degrade. If you want to fix it (hardware) u need to replace the switch (the one connected at board) which is hard.
There is a mod somewhere that replaces (or use both power and search key) as powerbutton. It wont replace the power button when booting up the phone but atleast turning off the screen using the search key.

But mine degraded just 4 monthaftrr using O1. I pushed the power button too hard as i was panicked that i hard brick my O1(does not enter cwm, just a few character on the uppwr left corner). OT, sorry.
Thats my main prob, i always flash rom, and if i got stuck in bootloop i have to enter cwm manualy (3 button combo). And it took me of average 3 minutes or more as it didnt detect the power button in the combo.
Have to live with that i guess.
Thanks for all the help. .
But i still hope tht i can repair it. :/

Haha, my power buttons is also very bad.When I got stuck on bootloop I replace the battery and quickly put it on(very quickly) and the I press vol. down and home to enter in recovery, that's the difficult part, but at least it's easier than turning it on with our damm power button

[Q] HELP! Shield Not Booting!

Yet another issue with my shield but this I can't figure out. I was gaming through hdmi and after i was done i closed the lid and opened it, it would not boot. It WILL charge, the nvidia logo pulses and thats it. Computer doesn't detect it. Still no idea. It is rooted but was done properly and was done awhile ago. Is there anything to do to hard reset or boot the bootloader or anyway to boot like on android phones? Please help! (I will keep updated) Edit 1: hooked back up to tv, it detects signal but it's a black screen.
Hold the power button for 15 seconds. That will hard power it down...
