My LG G2's power button and volume rockers appear to have stopped working. My phone is off and USB debugging is off. Is there any way I can power my phone on? Thanks!

Install some imaginary buttons from Google Play. Maybe it will help

The problem is that my phone is off! And I can't turn it on without using the power button it seems.
Is it the button itself that is broken or the functionality of the electronics? I once had to replace the physical button after the guts had fallen out of it. Got to the last step of rooting my phone, went to press that rocker button and ...nothing. I always used the virtual, on screen button for photos, so I never even realized that it was dead. They can usually find them somewhere online

I think it is the electronics because at one point my power button/volume buttons were randomly getting pressed without my input. But, I really don't know for sure.

This is some excellent question.
Because these days phones comes without removable battery.
I have the same problem but in a different way.
Suddenly my phone Asus zenfone 5 got switched off while operating the phone and unable to power on using power buttons only.
I dont know what to do.
previously we have the option to remove the battery and place again. But here i am not having a chance.
so,
please guys help me.
Oh bro don't take panic. Don't know about methods to do this but I think power button is repaired in less than 2$ everywhere (all around the world)
Good luck

All phones have a recovery mode which can be accessed by pressing volume up or down (only one) while inserting the USB cable. This powers on the phone for download mode allowing you to restore software.
As mentioned best method is to repair the faulty button but I would try restoring STOCK image/rom first.
Possible solution
Hope that this trick could help someone.
Situation:
- broken power button
- lg g2 off
- WORKING volume button
After lots of tries to power on that damned phone something happens:
1) Charge g2 until 100%.
2) Hold both volume button (UP AND DOWN) and insert power supply
3) be ready to disconnect the power supply immediatly when the lg logo appears
4) disconnect charger (Screen will goes off) keep holding volume button
5) reinsert power supply and when screen goes on release and rehold again both volume button.
And... Magically lg g2 starts!
I really don't know why this procedure works but i currently use this trick to power on the device when accidentally my lg goes to 0% -.-'
Some advice:
Before doing all this combination i've tried holding both volume button when the device was off.. For some reason the red led (charging color) flashed five times then this trick works. Don't know if was just a coincidence. But triying can't do any damage!
So... HOLD FOR MORE TIME YOU CAN THOSE ****** BUTTON.
And pray.
Hope that this will help someone

this worked for me. although I found that I did not have to reinsert the power supply nor did I have to rehold both volume buttons again at the end.
so 5) when screen comes on, release the two volume buttons.
Install Volume unlock, it'll make your volume button unlock the screen

Use ADB Commands to first connect your phone with your pc using a terminal and then use some other adb commands to power it on.
Google for some ADB commands.
Hit thanks
Lg g2 D802 here, non-responding power button. I power on my Phone just by plugging in the power cable and pulling it out when the logo appears. Nothing else. Screen on/off by knock-on funktion.

It souds like witchcraft but it works!
Here's my nexus condition:
It won't turn on, i've tried every possible method; hold power button (10s), hold volume down + power,
volume up + power, volume down + up + power, It still won't turn on.
I connected it to charger and it entered google logo but then off and on for several times. I sometime managed to get
into bootloader mode, but then again it off again.
the interesting part is when i hit my nexus to my palm, it sometimes turn on and enters google logo but then bang,
it's back off again.
Could someone please help me get out of this misery?

Sounds like a problem with the power button.
It should be a problem of power button cause if its has gone inside.. it will always keep shutting your phone
Hi guys,
TLDR; Phone won't turn on, notification light flashes red once on power up (sometimes), black screen all the time. :crying:
So my brother has asked me to try and fix his Nexus 5 as he isn't tech savvy at all.
So the problem he is having started when he tried powering the phone on and it started to boot up and then started resetting iteself.
It now will not power on at all and doesn't seem to be on at all.
When holding the power button, it will sometimes flash the notification light (at the bottom) red for a second or two. No other response from the phone.
I've tried holding the power button for up to 5 minutes with nothing. I've tried holding the V+ key with the power button for a few seconds up to a few minutes then tried pressing the buttons expected to get to a reset menu with no indication of anything.
I'm kind of lost and was wondering if anyone has had these issues before and know what is the best issue to try and repair?
Thanks
It could be a faulty power button which is a common issue with the Nexus 5.
Remove the logic board, clean around the power button with isopropyl alcohol, dry it, quickly press and release the power button using more pressure than normal, re-install, and try to boot.
You could also try this: hold volume + button and connect the phone to a computer using a USB cable.
Thanks audit13, I'll give it a shot and shout back if it works
Hello,
as stated, i got my power button broken probably due to water (not that waterproof huh?). The power button has worked for a few weeks, sometimes it was really sloppy and unresponsive, and stopped completely, and when my battery completely depleted i am now unable to power it on. I am able to get into download mode from where there is an option to restart the phone but of course it requires to press vol down + power button.
Have you got any magic tricks to turn on a turned off s10e with the power button broken ?
Hello! The solution: press volume down + bixby button and now plug usb c data cable (computer->phone), wait 3-5 seconds and phone starting in download mode. From download mode you can restart the phone with volume down button.
Hello all,
I got this problem with an A51: The phone does not turn on. No fall from hands, no previous problems. I talked 2 times this morning at the phone, put it in my pocket. After a few minutes when i checked my phone, it was closed. It had 72% battery.
What i've tried:
- power button press and hold, does nothing.
- when i press vol down + power, the phone turn on, appears Samsung logo, a51, powered by android. It stays like that approx 20 seconds and it turns off by itself.
- when i press vol up + power, does nothing.
- when i put at charge, only a small vibrate and does nothing but when it is plugged in and i press vol down and power, the charge circle appears and it shows on screen that the phone is charging. in this phase with the phone charged in, i press vol down + power, or vol up + power, and does nothing.
Any solutions?
Thank you in advanced.
