Hi,
I have broken my display recently and now I’m facing a riddiculous problem. How do I switch the phone off, when the screen is not working? The phone is working well, however I am not able to switch it off in order to prevent further damage, as the screen s cracked open. The only thing I managed to do was to restart by holding the power button pressed.
Thanks for any piece advice.

Hi guys,
When I make a phone call, the display/screen turns off in a flash and i am unable to bring it back. I press all the buttons home,back,power key but only the button light glows but there is no response in the screen. Only if the call is ended by the opposite end i am able to get back to the phone.
Note : I had just replaced my touch screen glass yesterday ( Not the LCD ). Does this have something to do with this issue ? Or if there is any other solution please clarify my problem immediately.
Hello, I got a tablet, I could open it to properly put the power button because the previous owner had had pressed too hard.
I realized that he had opened because the activation button to the right of the power button was to off.
I wanted to know if it is possible it is to forget to reconnect the water table that manages the tactile part.
Because I have a display without the touchscreen does not work, my tablet is stuck on the factory configuration screen. Thank you in advance for your answers.
Hi,
Since 1 month my Nexus 5 has a weird bug : when I hit the power button, it seems to be activated twice or more, the screen shows "screen on / screen off". So when I want to screen on my phone, it's immediately followed by a screen off, and when I want to screen off it, it screen on.
More embarrassing, the power button seems to remain pressed sometimes and induces random reboots or power off my phone.
I suppose it's a physical problem with the power button which may got dust inside his mecanism. So I wonder if anyone of you have an idea to fix it. Maybe by opening the phone and scratch it with a smooth brush it can be cleaned ?
Thank you in advance for your help....
Hi Ive had the Galaxy S8 about slightly more than a week, and Im facing this recurring issue whereby the pressure-sensitive home button starts to take light taps as heavy presses, and on some occasions when i turn off the screen, it turns on by itself thinking that I made a hard press. I can feel it as the vibration motors are activated. I tested it using *#0*#, but it works perfectly fine there. Anyone else facing these issues? Can anyone tell me if this is a hardware fault or software?
I've just witnessed it turned phone off and back on and back to normal now had over a week only known this happen once about an hour ago
Never seen it turn on my accident, but it does glitch out sometimes. At times it can register a touch as a hard-press, and it does the double vibration every time I touch the home button. This is fixed with a screen off - screen on switch though, so not a problem for me, and I haven't experienced it after the new update
Got myself the S8 secondhand and while it looks immaculate, I also have this problem. At times the pressure sensitivity doesn't work at all, sometimes it will go through periods of immediately pressing and depressing, and sometimes it'll register a soft press of the home button as a hard press.
Think this is a hardware error? I've tried this in Ultra Power Saving mode and without my case on, and it's always repeatable.

I'm having the double vibration when I hard press the home button problem. It's a hardware problem? And how to fix it? I didn't understand the screen off - screen on switch solution

Double vibration? Isn't that what is meant to happen? The first vibration when pressing down simulates a real physical button being pushed down, and the second vibration when lifting your finger simulates you releasing the physical button. It's meant to happen, and it's not a hardware or a software problem.
What I meant with screen off - screen on solution is simply turning the screen off, and turning it back on again. It fixes a problem that occurs to me at times, where the double vibration happens every time I tap the virtual home button. Normally it's only meant to happen when pressing the virtual home button forcefully, not on light taps where no pressure is applied.
If the phone is in standby, with display turned off, if you double press the home button, or you keep it pressed, the phone will get back to phone mode with emergency call only. How to disable that damned festure? ?
Hello everyone,
I bought a LCD replacement for my OPO, and asked a friend to replace the screen (he had his own OPO, and changed the screen on it a couple times, so I trusted him).
The frame was not included, so the phone is without it unfortunately.
But I have this problem with the screen itself...
I boot the phone, everything goes well, it boots, everything ok, I can do everything...
Then the phone goes to sleep after the 30s, and sometimes when I press the button to turn it on, the lights in the bottom light up, I can hear sounds, I can swipe to answer calls for example, but the screen stays all black.
If I press the power button to turn it to sleep mode and then click again to wake it within 1 or 2 seconds, it works everythime.
Its just when it goes to sleep... And then I have to press the power button to reset the phone, and it boots again.
I'm using the LineageOS Rom, and I never had problems like this before replacing the LCD.
What caused this? Could the screen be "broken" when I bought it?
Thank you for reading this and for the help!

Well,clearly the issue is lcd itself.Happened with me on my last screen replacement,it was defective.Though in my case,I had to power on/off the device to get the display back.Get a refund or replacement,there's no other alternative.
