I use CWM that you get after you root your phone.

quick boot

I hold down the power button for 2sec to get the shutdown menu and if I hold it for more than 5sec it will reboot... I don't see why I need an app for that

anreboot: reboot, recovery, bootloader, off options

i'd rather press soft keys

If you don't have a rooted phone try 'Fast Reboot'.
Although it does not close the device down it closes all Apps freeing up resources, memory and resets the phone if it has any errors.
Read the reviews... Many swear by it and I find it actually works very well.

I have tried, but it won't reboot, just switch off.

Strange... It should reboot. Are you rooted or changed the stock firmware?

Quick boot does what you want by the sound of it. Free version on market.
Can set short cuts up as well if you don't want to go into the app itself.
Although for any app to trigger reboot you need root.

Everyday I learn something new about Android, thanks.

[q] help me!! Safe mode!!

Anyone can help me?
My sensation is boot in safe mode and i can't exit from this Mode.
How can i do?
I've change a lot of rom, i've tried to reboot a lot of time but it appear always "safe mode"!!
Only one time i've turned off my phone for 2 days withous the battery and it reboot in normal mode, but now i've reboot it and is in SAFE MODE!!!!

reboot the phone and when the htc logo appeared ..(splash screen ) ..just press the volume down button the whole time until OS loads ..then see
if not working then the volume down button might have got stuck ..which is making the phone to enter the phone in safe mode ..remove the back case then reboot and see

You didn't even help him at all
He just needs to reboot into recovery then wipe cache and dalvik cache and he's back to normal
I'm assuming he updated his firmware
Sent from my Sensation

if the volume down button not stuck ...then changing roms would have helped him..which he claimed he did (as he will do a full wipe..which includes the wipe of cache and dalvik too)..thats why i skipped that suggestion

Take the case off and check the actual button. The little black square if its stuck down you'll boot into safe mode... Try pressing the down button with the case on dose it click normally?

[Q] my phone won't respond

Hello falks..
my HTC one x phone won't respond ..
this happened when I maybe disabled one of the system features by the Carot app ..
Now when I open the phone, I get a BLANK screen .. and I can't access any of the phone features .. and when I press the power button, it just restart and the same thing happen again and again.
I couldn't upgrade the system through my computer, because when I plug it, it says CHARGE only ! and I can't change it.

Can you get into TWRP?
Hold the power button for ~10-15 seconds (lights should start flashing) and hold down volume down.
You can let go of power when you see the HTC screen, but not volume down

What ROM were you on? I suggest reflashing the ROM.
don't forget to flash the boot.img, then the ROM

I thought maybe there is something wrong with screen but i tried to open mob normally till the soft key became light and never turn off then tried to make make a call to see if the mob will ring it said the mob is closed so i think this isn't about the screen any Idea ?
