1 - Hold power button until it reboots
2 - Same as 1
3 - Look in TWRP thread or rooting threads that are stickied at the TOP of the general and QandA Forum

1. Hold power button for 10 seconds
2. See number 1
3. Hold down both volume buttons and power at same time

But if holding makes it reboot, how do you completely off it?

how to take screenshot on the sprint nexus s?

I have ICS with Matr1x kernel. I thought it was volume down + power button, but that doesn't work.
Press and hold them down for like 3 seconds

Boot problem after rooting

Hola! I've been rooted now for a couple of weeks without any issues.. that I knew of. The only couple of times I've powered down and restarted, I've had to hold the power button down for well over 10 seconds before it will start to boot.
Is this normal? If not, any suggestions on why this is happening?
Thanks.

hm...
I don't know how long you have to press power unrooted but 10 seconds doesn't seem crazy much to me... How did you root?
How does it act when you reboot?
Considering it only took holding the power a second or two before, it seems like a problem now. I rooted using the toolkit, 2.53, I think.

[HELP] Power Button died and now volume Button is dying

Hi,
i need your help:
My nexus s power button died, but i can live with this. If it turns off, i can power it on via downloadmode + Odin. But now my vol down button is dying and if it is completely dead i cant enter download mode anymore. What can I do? Is there a chance to remap the buttons, so that i can power on my nexus when it is completely off?
Thanks,
Raphael

Maybe find a ROM that has different power on options like the "menu" button.
Also I believe the CMR has a touch screen version.
Good luck

devices with nonremovable back case

what happens if device with closed case get stuck in booting/starting/loading screen?
usually on my desire i remove battery and turn it on? i wanna get nexus 4 but what happens if it stucks when loading custom rom or something? any key combo to turn it off, reboot or something?
Holding the power button for around 10 seconds is equivalent to a battery pull on a nexus 4.

There will be a small reset button which you can hit with a pin ! So no worries ! Or just simply holding the power button shuts the phone down

Taking a screenshot issue

Somewhere between the upgrade to 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 I have lost the ability to take a screenshot with the volume up and power button trigger.
Anyone else experienced this?
I am completely stock.
