I'm having the common issue with the power button not waking the phone properly and it seems to be a hardware issue.
Can anyone recommend a DIY fix?
Has anyone noticed the power menu bug report bug in all 4.4.3 stock sense Roms. Here's what happens, when u enable power menu bug report in developer settings and then press and hold power it immediately reboots phone into a bootloop. Anyways I thought it was interesting and here's a logcat if any dev wants to take a look at it-also it's in in .txt format cuz I was in a rush that day a month ago... https://www.dropbox.com/s/zo5xcstvipwejk5/EclipticLunarPowerMenuBug.txt?dl=0
Hello everyone,
I was flashing MIUI official on my nexus 5, and I was in bootloader, and I was just simply press power button then devices just turned off and
wont start again. after turned off, device dont start using power button, then I connect power source, device just started and rebooting again and again, without power source device dont start, and when it starts on power source, device just rebooting continuously,
Service center said you need to change mother board.
It is necessary to change board or this is just a problem of power button stuck inside
Any sujection?
I suggest removing the motherboard. Then, quickly press and release the power button several times in a row using more pressure than normal. Not too much pressure as you don't want to cause any further damage.
If that doesn't solve the problem, it could be a battery issue.

I have not flashed my phone but have kept it up to date. I have version 6.01 build MMB29Q. I have had the issue during the last two weeks with it restarting but then just going off again. I have a separate Nexus 5 I user for parts for these situations. I replaced the motherboard got it up and running, everything seemed fine but then the power would just go off for no reason. The only way I could get it to restart was by holding the volume down for 10 seconds and then selecting the power button. The difference with this motherboard is that it will at least start up. I did change the battery as well and that did not make any difference. At this point I am thinking about flashing with a different OS to see if that fixes it. I unfortunately do not have a fix but I am at least at a point where I know how to keep it functional. Any further fix suggestions would be appreciated. I think my next step will be to flash it with a different OS to see if this issue persists.

I am confused, its battery issue or power button issue, I will try to repair my phone in shop not in service center
Chances are that you have the same problem I had with the power button.
My N5 had this behavior and was about to be replaced when I found something that worked. Try this: press and hold the power button several times with more pressure than usual. If no luck, smack it a few times (no kidding) in a table - I suggest you to do it with a cover. The main problem is with the switch soldered on the motherboard and the above steps is to 'unlock / release' the internal parts of this switch - the main culprit.
Several people had this issue and the spank showed to be useful: LINK
My N5 is working just fine, almost two weeks now. Good luck!
So since this last update my phone will randomly freeze then completely shut off. I have to press and hold volume up, volume down and power to get it to come back on. Anyone else experiencing this issue.
Lately I've been having an issue where the volume rocker stops working, a reboot fixes it but it happens every so often I don't want to keep rebooting my phone just to change media volume. Anyone else had this issue before? I haven't updated since EU rom came out so not sure if this was something that's been addressed already.
