i know there meant to be warm but its really buggin me. Im convinced its broke but if its meant to be like that then it wont bother me. mine was also Max and IPS+
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
My Samsung Galaxy S2 (AT&T) is rooted, and I am running a custom ROM. It worked great for about 7 months, but yesterday my phone would randomly reboot when I would press my power button. I thought it was either the custom ROM or my power button was stuck so I installed a new custom ROM to see if that was the problem was software related. After I installed the new ROM the power button worked great, but this morning my phone would only unlock when I plugged it into the AC or when someone called me (The power button is not unlocking/locking the phone). I've tried to boot into Recovery, but I need the power button to reinstall a ROM and it's not working there either. I've done some research and one guy said it may have overheated and to let it sit without the battery for a few hours so this is what I'm doing now. However, I think I've come up with the conclusion that my power button is broken, and if this is the case I could use some help on how to fix it because I'm not skilled with phone hardware. Any help is appreciated, and if I find anything else that helps then I'll be sure to post back that my problem is fixed and what I did to fix it.

The ROM I'm running now is SlimBean for S2 (AT&T)

Has no one else had this problem? Does anyone have any fixes or suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Lots I'm sure. I remember seeing at least two other threads like this recently. U can get into download mode and flash without a power button if I'm not mistaken. Also u could use mobile odin pro to flash back to stock. I mean if your point is to try and find out if it's a hardware problem or q software problem. If you already know it's the hardware I would try and fix it yourself or get a warranty replacement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
Thanks for the reply. You can flash without a power button in CWM Touch, but Slimbean only has CWM. I can't flash Touch without a power button. Kind of a crappy situation. lol

UPDATE:

I just tried using the Odin method in this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1313659), and now I'm stuck in a bootloop on the AT&T logo. I can get into 3e Recovery, but once again without a power button I can't do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset so I'm just stuck at this point. Any more suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] beaverslayer:
You could have downloaded an app from the market called quick boot and booted into recovery mode. My daughters phone is doing the exact same thing. Haven't got a chance to look at it. I have found out that the power button is different from the international version. Would have been an easy fix if they were the same. Her's is less than a year old so I may send it in to Samsung for repair. The button looks like its modular and soldered to the board instead of being soldered to the board via a flat flex cable. I'm going to updated my post on the subject once I get some facts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
I could boot into recovery (CWM), but it didn't do me any good because my power button wasn't working so I couldn't select an option. An update after you get facts would be nice though. Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bb_hershey:
I was experiencing the exact same problem! At firstly my power button was so sensitive that it turned out to be a 'touch button' instead of pressed button. It always auto directed to power button menu. Until yesterday it decided to die on me. Thank God I installed AOKP rom which has the option to wake the screen with volume wake option.

However to answer your question (i ran into the same problem that I stuck in AT&T ICS boot logo), it's stuck because the data/cache needed to be wiped before it could freshly boot up. This is what I did:

1) Get into the download mode (with battery out/in, hold 2 volume buttons and plug into the usb)

2) Get Odin (I figured out you already have it)

3) Download a siyah kernel which version must be above 3 in order to have the touch kernel (nonswap or micswap in whatever you can find from the internet). Make sure you download the kernel in a TAR format. Otherwise ODIN wont work with it.

4) Flash the siyah kernel through Odin under PDA option

5) Now, unplug your usb and insert your battery. Hold on to both volume buttons again and all hail to auto bootup function in our phone. You will manage to get into siyah recovery

6) Reflash/restore any rom you want that has SIYAH's support

Hope this helps. Right now, Im searching for one working screen lock widget without having the screen on/off within seconds. It's annoying! :mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] johnny_1437:
its a hardware problem.you can get it fixed from a local repair shop spending $10.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
Thanks a lot man. I was trying to find a kernal that was in TAR format, but I couldn't find one till you suggested Siyah. I just flashed the rom I used to use which was AOKP (Older version of ISC) and will upgrade to the newer JB rom tomorrow. thanks a lot.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
Just a quick update. I'll be talking it to a shop Monday to see if someone else can find the problem internally. In the meantime I've installed Quick Boot to restart/recovery/etc, ExTweaks to enable slide to wake (Volume wake didn't work all the time. This is much better.), and a Screen Lock Widget. I can finally use my phone again, but I still want this button fixed. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bb_hershey:
Surprisingly my power button work now! Btw, which rom you flashed and which screen lock widget you used? I tried mre than 10 apps but my screen goes on/off like crazy!

That's awesome! Sadly mine is still broken. lol

Right now I have the AOKP (JB 10/17) ROM, and the widget is called "Lock Screen Widget." The Widget only locks the screen; it's working great for me!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
I spoke to Josh from mobile tech videos since my wife's i777 power button just took a Shiite. He said he can do it for $35. I fully trust his work as he fixed my old cappy long ago and I have spoken to him on a few occasions on the phone just to be android stuff.

I have been at work all week so I haven't even been able to see if my wife's phone is a software issue or hardware. But it can only be turned on (the screen) by plugging it into a charger. So I am following this thread so tomorrow or soon I hope to check out her phone or send it to Josh.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
$35 is well worth this annoyance. I'm going to see what my local shop will charge; if he charges around the same price and I don't have to ship it then I will gladly take it there. That sounds like the same problem I was having so it's probably hardware, but you can flash another ROM to see if that fixes it. Please post back with any further information; this problem seems to be all over with no one giving much advice/tips. Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bb_hershey:
Yup. Unsure what causes it and how I got it back alive. Was thinking perhaps the board problem? Have you guys had some severe fall or water damage done to your phone before? Just asking :)

Sent from SGS2 i777.. be prepared for typo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] djluis48:
Mine was like that too, when i pressed it, it would bring the power menu or restart the phone as if i left it pressed some seconds, but now it works fine. Im using latest AOKP by task. Really weird.

Any way, while i was with the problem, i was using the slidetowake feature from Siyah, volume wake and an that maps long press search button to unlock, and i don't even use the power button anymore. Its more confortable to me to slide a finger across the screen, and to long press the search button to lock it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
That's interesting. I have not dropped my phone, and it has never gotten anything more than a little rain on the screen. I took it to a cell phone shop and he said that the water damage indicator inside the phone had turned pink which means that it thinks there was water damage, but there was no corrosion on the board or any other indicators of water damage. I don't know what could have turned that pink though...

That's how my problem started so I would be careful with using the button to much. It's good that you like the slide2wake more. lol I believe it's a soldering problem so the shop I took it to is looking into that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bb_hershey:
Sometimes its the moist around you would turned the indicator to pink. I have read it somewhere. Now it works flawlessly. So you left your phone with them?

volume wake button doesnt always wake my screen without a few attempts. Which app you used to map the search button to lock the screen? or did you personally got into the prop to map it?

Sent from SGS2 i777.. be prepared for typo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karothacker:
That's what I thought it might be. Maybe shower steam? I did leave it with them, and he said all he did was mess with the button and it started working again. I don't know what it is... maybe dust in the button?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Firemonkey5:
I'll necro this thread because I still want to know what this app is for the mapping... Right now surviving off of the volume button wake up that's kind of a pain in the ass...

Edit: I really wanted to quote the 2nd "added" post, but oh well.

Hey , i havent touched my N7 forquit a while .. today i tryed to turn it on and found out it is out off power soi plugged it into my charger but when i tried to turn it up i passed the google logo and was stuck at the blackbean logo (when its connected to the charger it show the charging ani but turns off after 5 sec then i need to click the power bottom to see the charging ani again) and when i try to get into fastboot i cant . it just shows me the place where i can select between "start" , "recovery" and "fastboot" but it get stuc on that screen . i cant move anything or just hit "start" cuz it doesnt work either .

So am i bricked ? what can i do ?

i dont understand how that happened since i didnt touch it all week long .. (oh yea and the battery never charges it stays forever on the lowest point of the ani)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Leave it charge for a while without messing with it.

secondly it is not bricked, if it turns on any bit and if it shows anything on the screen it is not bricked.

I don't know why people keep using that word incorrectly, brick means that your device is basically a brick, a paperweight.

And that screen that says recovery etc IS where you fastboot from, that's the bootloader screen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkiller51:
OK , thank you .

still , l cant get to the fastoot and into the rom itself or recovery meaning i cant do nothing . how screwed am I ?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
If you get to the menu that says "recovery" "start" "reboot bootloader" then you are in fastboot mode/bootloader.

Leave it charge a while and see if it works and if not you can flash a factory image or better yet, reflash your recovery and flash a ROM zip
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkiller51:
I cant . its in that mode but still stuck , flashing doesnt work and so is any kind of flashing .

what can i do ?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
What error do you get when you try flash something by fastboot?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpjimmy:
When you are 'stuck' in fastboot, you have a couple ways to go about it... one option and that is to run the N7 toolkit to get the N7 into recovery. From there you can restore your stuff, drop stuff onto your N7 to flash a new rom, etc...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1809195

Basically you run the toolkit like you are going to root it. Then when you get past installing the USB drivers and such, IIRC there was an option to get into recovery.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Ughh, toolkits.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkiller51:
DOESNT wrok . i am stuck at "waiting forr device" .. annoying .

now that i charged all night i can move in bootloader screen ! but when i get into recovery it is stucked in google logo and hen i plug it to the PC / charger it just get stucked and i cant move it anymore or use any tool kit . its like the device is dead !

any ideas ?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkl0wn:
Sounds like you need to fastboot the factory image to the device. Try multiple versions of fastboot. People have been reporting problems and switching to a new version of fastboot has helped.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkiller51:
How can i do that ?

- no recovery

- no fastboot (freez on plug)

- no boot

=nothing ?

or am i missing somthing ? i can think of a way to solve this . plz help !!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkl0wn:
Try a new version of fastboot... possibly from one of the rootkits then follow these instructions....

http://forums.androidcentral.com/ne...ide-factory-image-restore-your-nexus-7-a.html

Sounds like you're in fastboot mode and the above should work. Possibly make a YouTube video to show us the problems.

Hopefully they are delaying the release to up the ram from 1gb to 2. To me it would make sense since its becoming the new standard.
[HTC One X+] deeznuts:
If they did make this 2gb of ram I'd buy it the second it landed in USA for AT&T! Since its only 1gb and on all new software, going to need a lot of hands on to see what actual usable ram is available and how smooth it runs with a handful of apps in the background. For such an impressive specs, seeing only 1gb listed makes you look twice as if it was hopefully a typo am suppose to be 2gb of ram. Guess well see soon enough.
[HTC One X+] WA_Bob:
That will probably be the next iteration of the One X. The one initially coming out will have only 1 GB of RAM unless HTC has managed to keep a secret locked down tighter than the CIA! I figure we'll see a One X+ w/ 2GB RAM in about 6 months.
[HTC One X+] Hunt3r.j2:

HTC flagship strategy

Yes, they will most probably hijack their flagship again in 6 month!!! WTF!!!!!

The ONE X was released in may, 5 month later the ONE X+ comes out!!!!!!!

The same happened also with the sensation/sensation XE!!!!!!

If they want to keep us HTC fans happy they'll better be releasing ONE strong flagship model per year and the appropiate support for it for at least one and a half years!!!!!!

look at the galaxy s2 - it has been released in one year and 6 month ago, but samsung still offering appropiate support for it! - JB updates and so on will come till end of the year!!!

Take the sensation XE - released one year ago - already forgotten!! Jelly Bean??? from HTC??? of course not....

Your devices are very good>

smooth design, best sound, sense is the smoothest and most beautiful (compared to touchwiz and all that crap), very good specs,

BUT!!!!!!!

Your marketing strategy is CRAP HTC!!!!!!! You'll get bancrupt in less than 2 years if you don't change this pretty quick....

Your name will be next to brands like alcatel and toshiba in the phone industry if you don't do something about it....

and keeping your clients happy is way more important that the device itself.... and this is what you are neglecting......
[HTC One X+] barondebxl:
2 gigs of ram and i would have jumped on it in a heartbeat.
[HTC One X+] Hunt3r.j2:
LOL, good joke.

The One X+ and One X are identical. Maybe you never noticed, but Sensation and Sensation XE are getting the exact same amount of support.

Two flagships a year is fine, especially when the two in a year are nearly identical. The One X+ is just for people that don't want to take a gamble on buying a One X, especially when they could get an HT23 model or something similar that would likely have a massive number of defects.

In your eyes, HTC is "going bancrupt" no matter what. Either they don't release the One X+, and the One X sucks compared to the GS3 and every other smartphone out there. If they do release the One X+, they release a phone on par with everything else... and suck anyways, because they're "abandoning the older models", even though they will get the exact same amount of support.
[HTC One X+] asimriz:
The HTC One X+ was scheduled for an October 22nd UK release but for some reason it's been delayed. I talked to someone at Vodafone today & they said it's still NOT in... I'm guessing a few more days ? I can't wait.... My HTC Desire HD has been a good friend for the past 2 yrs....
[HTC One X+] WA_Bob:
I know a number of us who had pre-ordered it through Clove UK had received an e-mail previously stating it was delayed until October 30th. I e-mailed them yesterday to ask if they still expected it to be available to start shipping on the 30th and they said unless HTC delayed delivery again, that was when they expected it to start shipping orders.

I can't say for sure, but I assume you'd also be able to get it the same day in person.
