Hello.
I received my Pixel 4a recently and now feeling like the most disappointed person in the universe.
The reason is that the left button seems to be somehow stuck - but in a software way as it clicks perfectly (the phone is or should be new), but does nothing, and while button is not being pressed, the volume turns down on itself to the bottom, and tries to be turned down even then. There is more - the power button does not work, and I can not turn the screen of. And when I hold the power button, the phone does not reload - it goes into fastboot as the volume button is "being held" by default. And there is even more - in fast boot the volume down button also doesn't do anything, and the power button also acts as an options switcher instead of enabling them so I can not even enter rescue or recovery mode. The only way to boot then is to hold volume up button after holding power button so it neutralizes the volume down button effect.
Any help would be much appreciated

Anyone have expierience with this issue?
When I go to power on my device from it being off it will always boot into the bootloader, unless I press volume down while pressing the power button.
The OS seems to compensate for it being pressed the entire time. But when I do press the Volume Up key the volume goes up all the way and then i can't press the sleep button until the phone goes to sleep due to inactivity.
It's not a ROM issue as I can't press the Volume UP key in the bootloader/CMW and I have tried clearing Data/Factory Reset and the problems still exist.
Any help would be great!
Thanks!
Sounds like you need to open up the phone and clean up the vol+ button.
Fastboot is disabled.
So I have two sensations, one started acting up with the volume button. One day I noticed the volume up button no longer respond, went to bootloader via volume down+power. Volume up still doesnt's work, volume down moves the cursor "up" and power still work in bootloader.
Some days later, I can't get into bootloader anymore, volume down and power just normal boots, volume up and power normal boots as well. At this point, to get into bootloader I have to use 4ext app. So i get into bootloader, volume up still doesnt work, volume down still move cursor up, and now power button doesn't work!! SO i have to take out the battery to turn off the phone (in bootloader). In normal android, power button still works, just not volume up.
So I took apart both phones and swapped the volume button from each one. Suddenly I can use the volume again on both phones, can boot into bootloader OK.
Like a week later, the problem started happening again to the other phone with the "bad" volume button (including the power button, which I did not switch)
First phone is running venom 2.00, second phone is running ARHD 7.3
Anyone has ANY idea what's going on?

Tablet Hard Reset
I don't have experience with
this specific tablet, but many
Android devices use a similar
procedure.
Start with the tablet fully
powered off (not just in
standby). To force the tablet to
a fully off state, hold the power
button pressed for until it
powers down. This can take 10
to 20 seconds.
Hold the volume up button
pressed (some devices may use
the volume down button), and
then press and hold the power
button, until a small menu
appears. Release the power
button and then the volume
button.
Use the volume up/down
buttons to select the required
menu entry, and then tap the
power button to action the
selection.
I hope this works for you
Here are the modes for the LG K3 VS450
Factory Data Reset - Power off phone. Hold down volume up button. While holding the button down press the power button and hold it then while holding it when the LG logo pops up let go for a quarter of a second then hold down again on the power button. You will enter Factory Data Reset Mode. This is your typical LG Reset Mode (one on a white background) and has 2 options.. yes or no.
Advanced Recovery - Power off phone. Remove battery from phone. Replace battery in phone. Hold volume down + power button at the same time. You should see a message saying "Recovery Mode loading... " when you do let go of the buttons. You will enter the Advanced Recovery mode. This is your typical Android Recovery with many options.
Download Mode - Power off phone. Hold volume up button. While holding volume up button plug your data cable into your computer. You will enter Download mode. This is your typical LG download mode.
Safe Mode - Power off phone. Hold down volume down button. While holding the button down press the power button and hold it until you boot up. You will enter Safe Mode. This is your typical LG Safe Mode. It shows safe mode at the bottom left of your screen and can be exited easily by selecting exit from the notifications menu. On some LG's it will require a reboot others it wont.
IMEI Display - Plug phone into computer via data cable. Turn phone off. Remove battery from phone and replace it. Hold down volume up + volume down + power button. After the LG logo you will see a white image pop up make sure to quickly let go of the buttons. You are now staring at IMEI Display. I do not know if this is normal for all LG's or not but I would imagine so. I do not know what it is for either other than perhaps something industry related? Test modes? Etc. I will research and try to find out. I have an industry level barcode reader and software so when I get time I will read the barcodes and see what data I can get. I will also try to replicate on other LG's here.

Hello,
as stated, i got my power button broken probably due to water (not that waterproof huh?). The power button has worked for a few weeks, sometimes it was really sloppy and unresponsive, and stopped completely, and when my battery completely depleted i am now unable to power it on. I am able to get into download mode from where there is an option to restart the phone but of course it requires to press vol down + power button.
Have you got any magic tricks to turn on a turned off s10e with the power button broken ?
Hello! The solution: press volume down + bixby button and now plug usb c data cable (computer->phone), wait 3-5 seconds and phone starting in download mode. From download mode you can restart the phone with volume down button.
