Please help me. So recently I've been having this screen overlay detected issue and I'm trying to resolve it and one of the ways I found was to go in to safe mode and disable all draw over apps. I'm ok with doing that and I know how. You hold down power button and then hold down power off on the screen. The issue is that my phone doesn't have a notification after holding power button to power off, restart and put to airplane mode it has a slide to power off a button to restart and a cancel button to cancel. So I need help to finding out how to put my phone into safe mode when everything I've seen says to hold down power off on the screen, but I don't have a hold down to power off!!!! Please help me btw my phone is called Leagoo M8 Pro.

I tried to turn off the phone by by pressing the power button for 10 sec as directed in the guide on the development section. But all that did was restart the phone. So i turned it off with the regular method then tried to get into fastboot with power+vol down; But all the phone did was just boot normally to the stock ROM.
PS. I am trying to unlock the bootloader to install costum roms.
Thanks for helping
Go to settings > power > make sure "fast boot" is unchecked

Hope this helps!
Try that
I like to power down the phone then hold the decrease volume rocker then power on the phone. I've never run into any issues so this a pretty foolproof methodology in my experience.

Have You Tried POWER And VOLUME UP Buttons For At Least 10 Seconds? This Should Be Work.
Quick explanation
Ok so i had the bootloop problem with my Infuse , i fixed it by opening my phone and playing with the power button hardware.
I accidently broke the power button , I looked for hours for a way to turn on my phone with out a power button with no success until i found tried this:
TUTORIAL STARTS HERE
1. Enter Download mode by holding both volume rockers and inserting a USB cable while still holding
2. Get to the screen that asks you if continue with Download Mode or not.
3. Remove USB cable and click the 2nd option.
4. Phone will restart and that's how you turn on a phone with no power button.
Hope it helped some people.
you can also try a re-map.

I think only Samsung uses "Download Mode". LG probably has Fastboot like most other Android devices (Vol-Dn + Pwr). But you can try it - it won't hurt.
EDIT: Finally got an LG device. It does indeed have Download mode (and no Fastboot...Vol-Dn+Pwr brings me to a scaled back bootloader). Don't know if if asks to continue or not, but Download Mode doesn't hurt the phone unless you are potentially flashing software with it.
iTs working!! on Motorola Razr xt910
Android 2.2 and is working! After the phone turn on I was downloaded the app pwr bottom to volume key! And that is all okkk!
But take care after press (down and up) if you press up Inside tthe download mode this mean select! And on my first time I have take the recovery mode! xD
Good loooook!

Download Mode should work the same across all Samsung models. So, probably...

Hello mate!!! Thanks for the post but i have problems here. First of all my phone (Galaxy Wonder) goes into download mode by pressing volume down + home btn + power button, so i though instead of the volume rockets i had to press volume down + power button and then usb cable. It worked. Got into download mode!!! Then i remove the cable, wait a few seconds and then press down to cancel and restart. Then it happens that the screen shows a grey battery, then it fades out and back in for twice. Then the phone just turns off. Battery is charged! What could be the problem? (I have to say i just completely removed the power button from the motherboard, but keeping the metal things that were around it still soldered on the motherboards.
Any guess???
Thanks a lot
LG mytouch e739
My mytouch just goes into s/w upgrade and stays there forever.

Great... that helped.
I can't choose because my power button is off
Hello,
My Nexus 5 won't start up without going into the bootloader and switching through all the options because it thinks the volume down button is being pressed. The phone has been doing this for about a month and a half but lately the volume button hasn't been that bad and at sometimes didn't seem like a problem anymore.
Now when I turn my phone on, the bootloader is cycling through the options and I press the power button when it lands on "Start", the phone boots up but then it's in Safe Mode and I don't know what to do now.
Thank you for the help in advance.

It just fixed itself after pressing the volume down button for a while. I fear turning my phone off or pressing the volume down haha. Should I just buy a new motherboard eventually?
Hello,
last evening my s10e had an issue at the power button/fingerprint scanner, it doesnt work anymore! for me now it's impossible to power on the phone, i feel a classical click when i push the button, but the phone doesn't start, is there a way to power on it without this button?
i've tried to connect the phone and force the start with adb, but it remais off.
Help me please, i am in greece for holidays and i can't go in a samsung point
Are you tries restarting phone with button combo?
Using a particular combination of buttons, you can force your Galaxy S10, S10 plus, and the S10e to restart the system. Here’s how to do this.
Press and hold the Power button and the Volume Down button simultaneously until the device screen turns off.
May need to press and hold for more than 7 seconds
It will shut down and restart automatically
If the device screen stays black and you’re unable to see if it has turned off, keep holding down the Power and Volume Down buttons until you feel a vibration.

Thank you for your answer! Unfortunately i tried to force restart with this combination but nothing has happened... it's very weird, tomorrow i will return at home and i will go in a samsung point for the check up. I will write update as soon as i will understand what happened :/
After few days the assistance told me that the cause of the problem was water (wasnt it waterproof?) so i have to change power and volume buttons. Very disappointed
Must still be at the store
same thing
I was looking for some infor. My powerbutton stopped working. The fingerprint sensor works but not the power button. I wanted to take a few shots underwater. Maybe just 10 inches underwater and this happend. Looks like its not so waterproofed. I got lucky that the device was on. It looks like if it get off there is no way to turn it on.
Hello, I have a Galaxy S10 lite with black screen. I have tried to turn the recovery mode in. At the beginning this seemed impossible, as I tried "all" possible key combinations holding them for several second. Then suddenly, after more than 1h of tires, it entered in the recovery mode, but turn it off again before I was able to select any option. I tried again several combinations but I was able to success yet. Do you know how could I get the recovery mode again? any idea what is happening?

My recommendation: Take phone to authorized service center and let them try to fix it.
After one night usb connected to the laptop, but black screen at every time, I tried to enter in the recovery mode again, and it worked! no idea...
