Hi guys!
I face a problem with my n5 i m on stock android 6 so yesterday suddenly my phone switch off. It took me over 3 h to understand that.when i press the power button to unlock or lock to sleep mode my phone (2 to 3 times ) switching off. I dont consider that a factory reset will help because i m running this software over a month without problems.!!!anyone can help me?? I m desperate!!! Thanks..
The same thing is happening to a phone I have on my desk. I can be using it and it will suddenly power off if I touch the power button. I thought it might be a battery problem but that's not it because I swapped in a working battery. I also tested the power button contacts with a multimeter and the contacts seem fine which leads me to believe the problem is inside the power button and the button needs to be replaced.

I had my tablet for 2 days now but it all of sudden, the tab became unresponsive.
I was using it this morning and it went to sleep (I didn't lock it with button), and when I went back to turn it on, and that's when I found out it was dead.
the tablet does not respond to power button, charger or computer.
Anyone have a similar fault?
I can't believe I have to send this back to hk now for repair.
Have you tried turning it on to either download or recovery mode?
What is that mode?
I got it to turn on finally while tryibg bunch of random combos (volumn down + power) and (volume up and power)
etc
Try holding power button on for up to 20 secs worked for someone on the av forums
my tab every two days just freezes.... i have to press power for a few sec for it to reboot
Had a similar issue recently. When my device went to sleep it wouldn't wake 'normally' I could hear the volume up/down sounds but no picture. had to hold down for an extended period to reboot.
I checked what was using the most battery and it turned out to be "media" I had some issues w/ my ext SD card recently and noticed when I removed it all was fine.
so that was my solutions (as for why my SD card is giving me grief, that's anther yet to be determined issue) but atleast it 'wakes' normally and my battery doesn't drain like crazy.
I have the same problem - Tab go to sleep mode and death. Nothing is working. Have anybody idea what to do with it. I have only 1 idea - take it to service
Edit - Problem solved ;-) Conect Tab to PC while pressing VolDown. It start charging and after while you can start device.
I've got a similar issue. When you hit the power button to wake it from sleep, nothing works and you barely see the bottom taskbar. Reboot obviously fixes it. It happens pretty randomly every other day or so.
Hi , i was just thinking it may be of some help if you posted more info .
What ROM you are running .
What ROM you loaded before this one .
How you loaded the ROM you are currently running .
The reason I ask is that these problems may be ROM related and if thats so
you may help others to avoid the same problem .
Oh by the way , I have had this same problem show up with other devices and also
with computers not booting and it was caused by a SD card .
P.S good luck wish i could help .
i have jellyshot 3.0 with marmite and my recovery is the TWRP ... since a couple of day, it's happening a strange thing, my phone doesn't turn off. i tried from the power menu in the tile ( i have the power key not working problem ), and when it finish to power off it just reboot, sometimes get stuck with screen on. i tried from the recovery too from the reboot section but it has the same behaviour rebooting instead of turning off . the only change i made in this few day was a battery reset charging it while turned off using the guide on this site, and tried button remapper cause i wanted to switch the volume up to a power button, and worked but when i shut down the phone it never really shut down but keep stuck in the power off screen and i had to pullo off battery. Oh i was forgotting ... when i pull off battery and pull it on, it reboot too ... but since i have the power button problem it was a frequent behaviour !!! ... does anyone know how to solve this little problem ???
UP ?
hi
is it possible for the galaxy s3 powre button to stop working? i used a aftermarket battery not sure if it play any part in the dead power button. but want to tell you that too. the power button seem dead to me or something is wrong with it, i take out the battery and put it back and the phone vibrate and a quick flash of the word "samsung" and stay fully dead. it turn on by itself when i insert the battery without pressing the power button. i can do that many times and sometime the phone work and it get to the home screen and all buttons work except for the power button. no matter how hard i press it it wont turn off the screen or anything. anytime i got lucky and it boot to home screen, i plugged in the charger so that way everytime the screen shut off i can turn it back on by unplugging the charger, and that turn it back on... otherwise i cannot turn it back on with the power button...
anyone solved a problem like this power button issue? what could be wrong? i know the phone is not dead ,, so could the powwer button issue trigger multiple issues for the phone?

i got the phone to work by using app to auto detect sensor and turn on the phone for now

if you can get it to turn on u can use a app to wake it up by sensor.
Could be related to the 3rd party battery but hard to tell without checking out the internals to see if anything on the PBA got fried.
If you're able to get it to turn on with an app and not able to unlock the screen without use of the charger it may just be somethin to do with your power button itself.
Did anything happen around the time of the issue starting? (New apps, physical or liquid damage, software updates, etc)
Have you tried a known working OEM battery?

2 months before my display got faulty and replaced it , now just 2 days before the power button just moved inside and now i cant press it with my hands , only with some pin or needle like something is needed to turn on the device , is this because of any issues with the new display inserted or any issues with the power button only ??
Hello,
my power button finally died. Hard nor fast pressing didn’t work anymore, as it did before when this happend.
Then I noticed, when I plug in the power adapter while only pressing the volume down button it boots into the bootloader mode.
Selecting Start or Recovery and it shuts down.
Code:
fastboot reboot
doesn’t help either.
Because there are some files, I tried to replace the power button. But after removing the button it still does the same.
Are there some other possibilities to revive my old Nexus or just get the files?
Thanks.
I had the same issue with power button (first I just move it a little bit after taking nexus apart what helped for few months) but at last this also didn't help.
I went to unofficial mobile service and they did replace my power button and it works 4 months without problem. It cost around ~$30 so I think it was worth it cause I still have working phone. Now I use ROM which allow me to wake up phone with volume buttons just to use power button a bit less.
Had the same problem a year ago, went to unofficial service and they replaced it for about $10 and it's working like a charm since then..
