No this is definetely not normal. I would recommend to make use of your warranty cause this could be related to an hardware issue

Same here in Spain with an Orange HTC One S. Yesterday my phone rebooted three times and it was just laying next on my desk. Another problem is sometimes it doesn't connect to GSM network for a minute or two. It is also chipping a litlle bit on the upper edge. I am thinking of returning it.
Exactly the same here for me in the UK. New one s. Reboots since day 1. Does it anywhere from 2-5 times a day even when sat idle.

Nooooooooooooo I switched from a Motorola Defy+ to a OneS to get away from that particular problem which seemed to be unsolvable. Just about only things you could try is another sim card (unlikely), factory reset or probably the best option ..... take it back asap.
Thankfully I don't have the problem >touches wood<
my h3g signal go and come sometimes, but i think it depends by my cutting sim card to transform in micro sim.
I also cut my sim card to make it into a micro sim. I new this was possible but thought this might be a bad idea but when I spoke to vodafone about getting a new sim, they said 'bring it in and we'll cut it down for you'. I thought I might as well do it myself.
I just had a thought. How many of you with the rebooting problem have their phones in cases? Mine is. Now that you can't remove the battery to reset they've built that functionality into the power off button. Hold down to reset. I don't think it's that sensitive, but it just got me to thinking, is the case putting some minor pressure on that button to reset the phone? I just tried it manually, and it replicates the reboot... Going to try leaving mine out of the case for a while. Should only take a day to find out. Having said that, it does it sat on the desk on charge without having been touched.

I agree. Anyone using a TPU gel case that has the power button covered up might get this problem. I have cut a hole in the case over the power button for exactly this reason. Holding down the power button on the phone for ~10 secs replicates a battery pull.
Looking now to find a gel case that already has a hole there as mine looks a little untidy now.
Just an update. Left phone out of case since yesterday - rebooted once yesterday whilst I tried to launch the browser and once just now whilst it was on standby on my desk. The case would appear to not be relevant. Got a response from HTC. Apart from recommending a factory reset (why do they recommend that on a new blank phone!), they say return it....

I dont know about this though. If that was the case, you'd be seeing your lockscreen come up as well.
I too had my phone randomly restart on me twice yesterday within a <30min time frame. Was advised if it keeps doing it to take it back for a replacement at the store I bought it from. Oh and as for the case thing that doesn't matter, mine was in the leather HTC pouch which leaves the top of the phone uncovered.

Greetings,
Since yesterday, I've been experiencing constant restarts, because the power buttons seems too sensitive. I've opened the phone and tried cleaning the button, but the problem still remains. Seems to be motherboard inner power button related, and not the outer button with inner button.
I've bought the phone last year in November. But I purchased it from the google play store in Germany, and I live in Belgium because the 32gb version wasn't yet available at that time. Would I still have a warranty? And I opened the phone and rooted it.
From searches on the internet, I don't think the problem can be solved, it's just broken. Can anyone help me?
Similar issue
My phone doesn't even boot, it reboots or shutdown while the OS is loading.
I've managed to start the phone once by hitting it :silly: and got the pictures by USB. After that I selected factory reset in order to erase all my stuff. The phone still doesn't boot after I moved it from the table that time.
I did not even rooted my N5, by the moment it has Android 5.0.1 (the first update after it got Lollipop).
It just lasted 11 months. Before the N5 I had the N4 and had similar issues, so I wont buy LG anymore.
Someone with a solution? Can I buy a replacement or something?
Thanks!
I had a similar problem due to a sticky power button. Since my phone was in warranty, they replaced the motherboard for free. My phone was all 11 months old when the problem surfaced. You should go to a nearby authorized Lg service centre
Power button sensitivity nexus 5
First of all power off your phone than remove your back cover then remove the board cover with a screw driver remove the battery power strip located on the second right below small plug one then remove all the other strips then you will find two small cables holding on your board both left and right unplug those and slowly pull up the board now remove your power button you will find a small two parallel bumbs flaten it now put back everything reverse the procedure of removing the parts and switch on the phone you will find little hard to switch it on but it will not switch off again to turn screen on after lock choose volume rock wake in settings easy then to turn screen off download some widget like screen off button .. Nexus 5 survives.. sorry for my English I know its bad. But still can help you ppl with that.plz share it Thanks
Hi,
Since some months ago, I've experienced those common problems with power button. I bought my Nexus 5 on launch date, so my SN was 310K.
As the problem was increasing, I asked for a replacement, and it arrives today. However, I noticed that the speakers holes are the same size, and when I move the phone I hear the power button rattle.
I just have the IMEI (they are sending it without the original box), but I found this website to check the SN: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
And I saw that it is still 310K.
I'm not really worried about the speakers, but as I asked for a replacement, I don't want to have the same problem again in a year.
So, my question is: as these problems are well-known, can I ask for a replacement (of the replacement)? Should I worry about that button rattle?
Do you recommend me to send back the replacement and ask for another one?
Thank you!
The button rattle is a common thing. It's not really a problem, or indicative of a problem, just differences in manufacturing tolerances and ultimately just a really annoying nuisance. One of my N5s had horrible button rattle so I called Google and made a stink about it and got them to send me a replacement which I'm happy to say, was absolutely flawless. I'm the type of guy who will exchange a phone for even the slightest defect as I feel that we shouldn't have to settle for anything less than a flawless device (took 4 tries with the N5). If you want to go that route, that's completely up to you. If it bothers you, then personally I'd exchange it.

Anyways, the received phone isn't working properly. Besides the button rattle, the vibrator is doing a strange buzzing sound when it's stopping, which I think it's not normal, so I'm sending it back.
However, my original phone stopped working. I can't boot it now, it has been like that several hours, and it just stands like 10 seconds and reboots again. Cool.
My biggest concern is not being able to delete all my private data of the phone before sending it back. Should I worry about that?

The problem is the power button, so even starting with the bootloader it reboots after a few seconds.
I don't want to open it and avoid warranty either.
I'm not sure how this is possible, but about once or twice a day, the back button on my S6 is pressed on it's own. It has happened when the device has been on the desk, I see the soft keys light up, the device vibrates like they've been touched and the app I was on went back, all while I was not even touching the device.
It's happened mostly when I'm holding the phone but not even close to touching the buttons, and once it happened and pressed the back button about 10 times in a row while I watched it.
The phone is completely undamaged, perfect condition, never touched water, not dirty at all, buttons are 100% clean. Happens while it's charging or on battery.
Has anyone else experienced this?
(My device was repaired by Samsung for a different issue, motherboard replaced, this only started happening after the repair)
i have, started like yours random. then it started happening more and more so when i was at the store waiting for someone i decided to factory reset ( factory reset twice while at the store) but it got worse. couldn't even get passed initial setup the phone just kept spamming back button so i just kept going back. luckily i already ordered a replacement s6 from tmobile since i was having some other issue with the phone. sadly the replacement s6 took over 7 days to get here. shipped through UPS and got to hawaii then for some reason UPS gave it to USPS for delivery. kinda sad that i ordered screen protectors 2 days after i ordered replacement phone and the screen protectors got here 4 days later through USPS. but other than that my NEW ( we all know its refurbished) galaxy s6 so far has no issues. even the no audio on calls is fixed.
also if you are going to order a replacement, be sure to let them know you have a GALAXY S6 and the date it was released. i say this because the 2 tmobile reps i talked to kept asking questions they say it was for them to determine if my galaxy s6 that was what 2 almost 3 months old at the time was still under warranty
My s6 was showing the same issue with the stuck back button.
It started randomly but than it went crazy and stuck. I wasn't even able to use it.
But 1 factory reset fixed it.
But yesterday the random stuck back button started again when the phone was on my desk and it was really hot (weather was hot as well as the phone). I turned it off for a while and apparently the issue stopped.
I'm not sure it's temperature, firmware, whatever related but I really don't want to factory reset it again.
No solution here, but it is happening to me as well
Solved
Hi i had the same problem aswell , i bought samsung s6 in Pakistan, after the update the back button kept pressing ghostly, i went to local samsung repair shop and the assistant reset something from the setting and then it was fine, i even asked him what you did and how you did? but he said it is secret lol very stupid. i could have post the solution if i know it, but i think it is very easy and something to do with setting. i am sure it is not hard/soft reset. i will post this on other forums to help other people.
thanks
having this problem with my phone too, i cant even get it to stay on the settings screen long enough to back up my stuff
edit: well i think i solved it. i tried clearing the cache, didnt work. then i did a hard reset, didnt work. then i went back and cleared the cache and did a hard reset at the same time and it seems to have worked.
+1 same problem. It happens mainly when the phone is on the move. Funny thing it happened 3-4 times while taking the metro (go figure) with the data on. Usually when I turn off the data, it reduces the amount of back press.
Normal reset doesn't solve the problem. It stops after a while, probably when the phone cools down. I can't seem to reproduce it, but I believe it has something to do with the data on.
I don't really want to factory reset so I'm going to write to samsung directly as the phone is brand new.
i am having same issue too.

Did anyone try loading a custom rom and got it fixed ?
I've had that issue with my first one. Took it back ASAP as it was DOA. Got a brand new one 3 days later as they didn't have any in stock. This one doesn't have any problems. Don't worry to mutch about it. Get it exchanged.
It is a hardware defect: When the phone turns up power to the radio to strengthen the connection, it can cause Electronic Noise to leak over the connection into the capacitive buttons (due to poorly insulated shielding tape), causing the phone to think the buttons were pressed. That's why you notice the problem more when roaming -- the device needs to be repaired/replaced.
I have the exact same problem...did anyone contact the manufacturer and got a response on the matter?
I believe it may be an app setting messing with the system settings. My device did it once and wouldnt allow me to use my device. After factory reset it made it worse so i used twrp and wiped everything but my modem and flashed my stock firmware and it stopped and hasnt done it since

Hum that's interesting, thanks for your precious input on this.
I did contact Samsung who asked me to do a factory reset. It didn't change anything.
They redirected me to a Samsung office in Paris, not for repair but for a deeper factory reset... (not sure what they are talking about), but I haven't been there since due to lack of time.
However, I didn't experience the problem since the last update FXXU3QOKN so I'm keeping an eye on it.
Following "faiding's" comment, I'll probably pay them a visit for a replacement.
working "workaround"
workaround:
lower the speaker volume to ~75% in all settings (Media, ringtone, system, notifications, etc...)
Whats going on? why is it working?
some posts ago someone (user called "faiding") mentioned something about EMC leak, or at least he meant to, by mentioning a faulty insulation.
with that in mind i did some testing and found out that the closes radiating component it the speaker... and once you lower its emissions even thought the faulty insulation, the EMC leak is sufficiently low and the 'capacity short' is avoided.
Note: depending on how 'faulty' is your insulation (it varies from one phone to another depending on production line assembly) lower the volume until the issue stops accruing.
not full-proof but working

Repair tech
It is true that if your in the US and your phone has no damage or any water damage to void your warranty even if you bought it from someone else, u can register the phone at samsung website and then request a repair. It will still have a warranty.
But as I am a Cellphone tech, sometimes I rebuild phones. A s6 came into my shop and i once rebuilt it and worked for a while before doing the phantom touches on task and back keys. So when i pulled the screen up a little off the touch keys, it would stop. I gave up after a while trying to figure it out as i had more things to work on. Back in December i decided to rebuild it again, new screen, new battery, new frame and new back. Turned it into a gold s6 to try and sell it again. Sold it couple days ago, and it came back the next day doing the same thing. So got bored tonight and started to take it back apart. Figured i would try one more thing, replaced the charging port (which is also the soft touch keys) to see if that would resolve it. So far its not wigging out but im letting it sit here and try using it from time to time, with wifi on and a simcard installed. So far its not going crazy, but I will let everyone know if it fixes it or not. As for the "Youtube thing" I tried that, did not resolve. Im guessing its a defective soft touch keys/charging port.
I would not recommend this repair unless your phone is out or voided of warranty.

Hi dslayer83,
I've the same problem with my S6
Could you solved the problem replacing the charging port?
It would be very important to me knowing how to repair the phone because I buyed it abroad. In my country Samsung does not cover warranty.
Up with this thread!
I had an S6 since January.. initially the problem was very random, maybe 1 or 2 times per day, sometimes would go crazy for a while
Then i had some time with no defect at all (a couple of weeks?) without doing nothing
This past week, the phone was feeling like the MENU button (what menu as in this phone there isn't any?) and that was very weird!
Today, it simply went completely crazy, and now is completely unusable... i can't actually swtich it off as the back key is pressed so quickly i don't have the chance of doing nothing!
EDIT: Managed to reboot and wipe cache... now it is useable, but still hits the button from time to time
Update... went unuseable again today.... factory resetting now...
If it works, shall we suspect is something software related?
Update: Not working... it started giving the phantom touches just after the factory reset then suddenly stopped
Worked fine for few hours, then started craza again
Now i have done a wipe and factory reset again, and still unuseable
Hi everyone, I'm have an issue with my Nexus 5 and hoping someone here can tell me whats going on.
It started off with the sound always cutting out, and I have to press the back part near the "S" logo for it to return.
Eventually the screen would go black but I can clearly see a back light is on. Now not only does the sound cut out, and screen goes blank.
It has become very sluggish to reboot it. I hold the power button until the phone reboots "Google" logo appears and the android animation. Now during this time the phone will be so slow to the point of being crippled out and i have to reboot it again and again until it is normal speed returns. Often it will black out during this time.
I'm just trying to understand what is failing. I tried safe-mode and it still has the issue. I cleared cache, reset the phone everything, nothing appears to fix the issue at all.
edit: I forgot to add, when I'm on YT or listening to music or browsing the web, even though the screen is blank with just the back light on, the sound is still going (when it works). I get text/call notifications still during this time.
My Phone Details.
Nexus 5
Android version, 6.0.1 (MOB30Y)
no ROOT
No replies at all, I guess I may have to garbage the phone. Idk what else to do with this device to fix it.
Please don't throw it away.
You said that pushing at a specific spot fixes the problem (or improves the audio situation). This means that it's a hardware problem. I have disassembled it many times and I know the layout. Behind the 'S' of NEXUS is actually the motherboard cover, and under it are 2 connectors; one for the battery and one for an extra 'board' that is located right underneath the LG logo on your back cover. On that 'board' is your screen connector, and also the speaker rests on there, as well as the primary microphone, 3G and 4G antennas and of course the USB port. The connector for this extra board is actually located a bit to the left on the 'S' (when you look at your phone from the back, it's more below the camera).
Now I have to note this: While using my phone, I have experienced some UI hiccups. At random times (very rarely) everything would just freeze for a few minutes, though music would still play. The power button was useless apart from the hard reset, it was so badly stuck. This was a software problem, although it appeared MOST at one point when my motherboard was faulty. Since I got a new device, it happened again but only once. I'm not sure that this is what you are experiencing. If this is the case, then it's a software fault. Never happened on CM so you can give it a try.
But since it's probably a hardware problem, you can always check it out yourself. Obviously if you have warranty you are covered. Otherwise, you can try disassembling it, at least take the back cover and the motherboard cover off, it's ridiculously easy, there is a disassembly guide from ifixit (I think) online, just be careful not to break the clips of the back cover (xp talking). If you open it, keep away metal things and the first thing you do after you remove the motherboard cover is remove the battery (xp talking again). Obviously turn off the phone properly before you attempt anything. Everything is sensitive in there so be careful. What you should look for is the long connector that connects the extra board that is located at the bottom of the phone with the motherboard. That's what you are pushing so if it's not sitting correctly, then that's your problem.
Plus, everything in there, apart from the motherboard, is cheap and can be found on eBay so don't worry if something is broken (unless it's the motherboard, then no hope ).
I hope I helped.
Firstly thanks for the reply. I did manage to remove the back and get to the connector you were saying. I reseated this and noticed the phone was working much better. I noticed the following still.
When it starts acting slow/crippled pressing this connector fixes the issue. However once the screen goes black with just a backlight this method is rendered useless. Also sometimes when I plug in the wire to charge it will cripple and or go black. So I wondering if the board is shot as you suggested to order a new one, or is it the connector strip ?
Again thank you for the response.
It seems like this board is causing everything. First, check the connector on the motherboard. Make sure that nothing is wrong on the motherboard. Then you can remove the bottom black plastic thing that has the speaker on it and 2 antennas. Then, inspect this board. Check the connector of the display. There is only one big connector on it. This board is glued on the frame of the phone. You can remove it but do it carefully. Do it slowly so that you don't break it. First, remove the antennas extension cables from either this board or the motherboard, and then pull it out.
This board is definately responsible for the black screens and audio issues (unless your display is faulty, check its connector), but I'm not sure about the phone being sluggish. Since this board offers input to the motherboard, I suppose that it could be its fault.
Remove it and inspect everything. Then, if you want, you can order a new one. If you come across D820 and D821 models, I don't think that this part of the phone has anything to do with it so don't worry.
I will take a further look into this for sure, and report back. If you can provide which motherboard is required for my device, so I can also read into this and so that I may order it right-away. Is there any model number or something that indicates which board to order once it is open?
Thanks again!

You don't need to change the motherboard, not to mention it's very expensive and hard to find. What you need to replace is probably the flex cable that goes below the battery. For example this.
This is not model specific, you can use it with all available Nexus 5 models (D820/D821, 16/32GB) so it doesn't matter what device you have.
FYI, if you think that you should replace your motherboard (you probably shouldn't), you need to take into account the storage (16/32GB) and the network differences (D820 or D821, the only difference is about the 4G networking, the american version has some bands enabled and some others disabled, and vice versa)
Okay, I just ordered the replacement flex cable. It is going to take about a month before it arrives from HK , I hope it fixes the issues. I will respond to this post once it is here and installed. Thanks again.

in the meantime, pray it isn´t a motherboard issue, the conector can go bad and lose a few solder joints
I have exactly the same problem... I unmounted motherboard and clean everything but didn't help to much... did you find any solution ??
Siamer no solution just waiting for my delivery of the part. However it is getting worse with the blackscreens and crippled lag.

Hope that parts will fix it, please let me know if you will find some solution. Today I will open phone and clean all connections etc...
Thanks,

I believe the part may fix it. I noticed if i run my finger along the strip the phone may uncripple itself or just turn black all together. I'm hoping it fixes it. I will report asap but this HK shipping is so slow it will be a month. Also there is no tracking
ATM i'am just trying to becareful with it trying not to trigger the issue. I just did an OTA update using FlashFire (6.0.1 (MOB31E) i wish v.7 will be available for my Nexus 5 ha ha!
Also if the Nexus 7p arrives I may just buy it to replace this Nexus5.

there is still same problem, working better than before, black screen not showing so often but still showing... I think tomorrow I will order oneplus3... Would be nice wait to see new nexus but how... :/
Yeah I'm not sure when the Nexus 7p will arrive, they not even advertised much. I will assume next year?
OnePlus 3 looks nice, but compared to Galaxy 7 it's a bit better slightly. You should check out comparison charts
Maybe they are making a OnePlus 4 soon.
oneplus 3 already ordered. I don't like samsung. I would say nexus "7p" or "pixel xl" will be launch october as always prabaly 4th of october - leaks saing that... next oneplus will be launch around july next year as I know. the only phone that I was thinking about was oneplus, htc10 or new nexus but can't wait to see nexus...
today by excident I broke screen in my nexus 5, got a little bit angry
Regards,

Siamer no solution just waiting for my delivery of the part. However it is getting worse with the blackscreens and crippled lag.

You probably don't want to hear this, but if it's getting worse, it's probably because of the pressure you apply to it, you make it worse. Be careful when you apply pressure around the motherboard since it's very sensitive. You REALLY don't want to break the motherboard. So if you find yourself pushing on the motherboard too often, you might want to leave it and wait for the replacement part so you won't ruin it.
Waiting for your news...
My part arrived yesterday. I put it in was pretty easy, however the first attempt i had to redo the top connector bc it was still black screen and no audio. After I disconnected the top connector ran some alcohol over it, re-put the top part things are working okay.
Just a note, the little USB connector (charger slot) seems to be very tight compared to the old one. Maybe bc it's new and not as worn down. But even just to put the wire in, requires more of a push, same with removing it.
I will see how it goes before I can really say that was the issue. I will report after a few days about it.

I don't think N7P will be out this year, they have not advertised anything and we are almost in Oct. Right now they are all rumors.

When I changed my screen and housing it was difficult to slide the USB connector in too. Just make sure that everything is in place, there is a rubber think for the microphone, maybe that's what's in the way. Don't stress the connector too much.
