My Nexus 5 power button recently started getting stuck and is now completely stuck down so it goes into boot loop,
My question is, if I remove the power button from the board completely will I still be able to boot it using ADB ?
Or if there is any other workarounds without sending it for repair please let me know.
Thanks in advance
Yes, ADB REBOOT will work.

i updated and now it wont fully boot up. i get to the screen where the honeycomb is going up and down and it just stays there. im having trouble getting it into recovery from adb so if anyone knows what to do please save me.
How long are you waiting because the first time mine booted in 3.2 it took about 10 mins.
Long enough for the xoom to die. I just want to be able to boot into recovery but when I try to from fastboot it doesn't do anything. I hope it's not bricked and there's something that can be done.

Do you have CWM installed? If so, boot the Xoom and at the Moto logo wait about 2-3 secs then press the Vol Down button. This will give you the option for recovery, press Vol Up to get in.
i do have it installed but it wont let me get into it through fastboot or those instructions.
do you think this is bricked?
Hmm. I'd keep resetting it (hold power and Vol Up) and trying to get into CWM. I can't see why this wouldn't work. To reiterate, you want to press vol down after about 2 secs of the Moto dual core image.
awesome, i didnt realize i had to press it down. i kept holding it and getting into fastboot. thanks for the help guys!
Glad to help
Ok so today my triumph stopped responding so i restarted it (took out the battery). then rebooted. upon reboot phone shuts down and now will hang at the motorola logo for about 10 min before boots but will shut back down due to the battery being dead(but had full charge when this started). Dont know what happened. So i try to get into clockworkmod to flash backup. cant get into it. the only thing i can do is get to the recovery.img file(pressing power+volume down). Other than that nothing.
also tried to boot with power pluged in. it stayed on but would not respond to any touches or button press except the lock button.
I have cwm 5.0.2.6 installed and tickerguy's cm7.
never had this problem till today. Any help would be appreciated.
a new development has occurred. now when i try to access recovery, the phone will just vibrate without stopping.
and i believe its stuck in a boot loop but without recovery i dont know anyway to exit the loop.
Are you able to get into download mode (power off then simultaneously press power button & vol- (should show polling))

Yes i am able to get to download mode
Well after some tinkering (replacing the recovery image, assuming something corrupted it) i can now get to recovery, still takes 10 min to load it though. But i am unable to do anything in recovery because i have to press the menu button to confirm selection but the buttons wont respond. Some help would be appreciated.
After trying to flash a TBO calendar/calculator inverted app I rebooted from recovery only to now be stuck in a bootloop. The only thing the phone will do is begin to reboot itself if I press all three buttons to "hard restart". (power+vol up+vol dwn). Tried using adb/fastboot to reboot into recovery or bootloader but I don't think that the phone is far enough into the boot process to be recognized by adb/fastboot because typing adb reboot-bootloader just returns "waiting on devices". I have also tried to use power+ vol dwn combo to reboot to bootloader. I have noticed that this only works for stock and other certain ROM's. It's a hit and miss as to why this occurs.
So right now I am stuck in a perpetual bootloop with no way to get to recovery or bootloader. I don't know of any other way of getting into recovery to restore a nanroid. Any one have a good suggestion? Please!
The combination of power + volume up (for like 10 or so seconds) will force a reboot. As SOON as it reboots you just need to hold volume down to get into bootloader.

I'm having the same exact problem, I figured out the volume up + power, turns the phone back on in a hardboot. But, exactly how long do you need to hold the volume down button for once it's rebooting?? I just got a replacement phone on 9/24, my previous phone had no problem with this & had the option of fast boot in the settings. Just rebooting my phone takes FOREVER to turn on (or so it seems in comparison). Any idea how or why this is now? Is it due to an update, can I uninstall the update to go back to a fast start setting?? Thanks!!

When you hold the volume down button are you also holding the power button? You need to use volume up + power to restart. Then, when it restarts, immediately hold volume down without letting up on the power button. Needs to be volume down + power to boot into hboot. As for now long do you hold it, until it boots to hboot.
Thanks for the info...
Thanks for more details I'm pretty sure I did let up on the power button thinking it was keeping it from loading. I'll try this out now!!!
Hey All
Need some help. I accidentally messed up my volume buttons on an HTC M8 and had to use adb to boot into recovery. After booting into recovery, I completely wiped my phone (customer ROM) using team win v2.7.0.0 with the intention of installing an official ROM. (Totally forgot I would need the Volume buttons).
Restarted my phone which seems to be stuck on the white HTC logo boot screen (understandable as I have no ROM on it now).
However, How do I get to turn it off firstly. I have held the Power button for over 2 minutes which seems not to solve the problem. Secondly is there a way I can boot into recovery without Volume buttons when the phone goes off eventually.
adb needs to detect the kernel for it to send instructions from what it seems as it keeps giving the response my device is offline on the white screen.
Is there a way of using adb to boot the device into recovery when the phone is off. Any help or suggestions you may have would be gladly appreciated.
Hello, today my xiaomi phone just stopped working. In the morning when i checked my phone it was all good, but then when i checked it like half an hour after, it wont unlock, i tried the power button, 2tap, fingerprint reader, nothing. My notification led was flashing as so i had some notofications so i knew it wasnt completely dead so i jsut hold power button to restart my phone. Now is where the trouble begins. It only shows "redmi" logo and wont start it got stuck in boot. I tried fastboot its changes to it but nothing can be done. I tried to hard reset it thru holding power button and volume button up together but it just restart again. I cant switch thw phone off nor i can switch it on it just loops there in boot and nothing can be done. So my question is is here someone who had similiar problem and fixit. If yes please tell me how.
Thank you all in advance.

Hi, I recommend you first of all back up your data if still possible.
Then, reboot into fastboot.
-fastboot erase system
- fastboot erase cache
- fastboot erase userdata
-fastboot erase recovery.
Then clean flash a rom.
