[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] CuTebLuR:
Hi, I am a complete noob here.

My Sony Xperia Z Ultra is not able to turn off due to hardware issue. The power button is always pressed. Whenever I choose to off the phone, it turns on but also turns on itself. There is time during my work that I need to have my phone off totally (not even silent mode). Repairing costs me the price of a new phone.

I want to remove volume up button function and call for power function when "volume up" button is pressed. I searched and found great remap button apps. But all of them revert back to the original setting when I off my device.

I tried rooting my device using "Root Android without PC" and "KingRoot". I verified the root status of my device using "Root Checker". But I don't dare to move a step further to install Xposed Framework because I don't know how and the risk is real high that I can't take.

What can I go about in this case?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Sorry if I ask, but isn't it enough to put it in airplane mode? The phone is as good as off that way...

And hey, if you have to repair it, you're beyond the risk part already, although I don't know if there are apps allowing you to remap (or ignore) physical buttons...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
Are you sure that the power button is pressed at all time?

How do you access the power menu to turn the phone off if the power button is pressed at all time?

How do you wake the phone when its booted to system?

How do you turn off the screen when booted to system?

How do you keep your phone on if the power button is pressed at all time? If I keep it pressed from when the phone is on my device turns off in a few seconds. And it remains in a constant bootloop from booting to system then turning off again.

There is the emergency switch inside the sim slot. Red button. It will kill the device.

Or you can press and hold the powerbutton+vol up. Does the same thing as above.

IF you are 100% sure that the powerbutton is pressed at all time.

You can take the phone apart and remove the flex cable. IF it is as you say. The button is "pressed" at all time.

There is two scenarios.

a) The push button is pressing down on the switch for some reason.

b) The switch is stuck in nc = being pressed/closed circuit.

Both scenarios are caused by either two reasons.

a) The power button was put on too much force. Either by slow continuous force. Or a quick force explained as perhaps the phone was dropped and the button took the hit.

b) The switch has been exposed to water or a liquid that conducts electricity. If this happened there can be numerous reasons why the switch is stuck in nc.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] CuTebLuR:
There are times the phone is not used for days. Air plane mode is good. I would want to save the electricity if can.

A short press on volume up button triggers both volume function and power menu. In normal case, the power menu is triggered only after longer press (2 seconds, maybe) on the power button. Very long press on power button doesn't restart my phone in bootloop, I tried when it's working fine.

I use "Soft Lock Screen" and "DSTO" (proximity sensor) to lock and wake my phone. Volume up can wake the screen too.

I tried power+VolumeUp (only volume up for my case), red button beside sim slot, factory reset... Nothing works to save the power button.

Both scenario are possible for me.

a) There are times the proximity sensor does not work during a call, I long pressed the power button to wake my phone. But tapping and flicking near the power button does not help, so I suppose not this reason?

b) I wash my phone. Although the water check sticker is still white, I suspect water leaks in near the power button itself. If this is the case, the only solution is changing the whole mother board/flex cable? Can I put into dry box (or rice) for days to dry it?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
"I wash my phone."

...There we have it.

Part is here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VOLUME-ADJU...-C6802-F936-/361094703692?hash=item5412ebea4c

....I don't give any promise at all its gonna work. And if any of the buttons leak the membrane has holes in it where the buttons sits on the chassis..you gonna get water right in there again.

Then perhaps water has also reached other parts.

TAKE NOTE. This is not an easy fix. This change requires deep skills to replace. And proper equipment.

I would give u three options

1. send it for repair

2. give it to a friend who has skills to fix (if you know any)

3. let it be as is...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Well I wash my phone on a regular basis, but my buttons all work as of now...

With Root, you could install GMD Gesture, I use it to pinch the screen with three fingers to make it go to sleep.

You can potentially use it to assign any action or any button to whatever gesture you want to do.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] CuTebLuR:
How long u have used your phone? Mine since 2013 December.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Day One 2013. I preordered from Clove UK and spent like a million pounds for it.

Never had a better phone since the Nokia 6210.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] CuTebLuR:
Yeap, it's really a good phone, that's why I spend the effort looking for a solution for this power button issue. I'll keep it as it is first. Will try to repair of I can't withstand the inconvenience anymore.

Thanks, fastest83 and SÜPERUSER.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iandrew124:
I just received my Nexus 6 that I bought from Best Buy yesterday and have got it activated today.

I really want to root and try flashing my first rom. I have been reading thread after thread trying to learn and understand what it takes to root a Nexus 6, flash a rom, and what the proper way to do it is. Spent at least 5 hours reading threads and I have been so confused as to what to do.

First, I have read that you should do the ADB way to unlock, root, flash etc. (Nexus 6 all in one Beginners Guide) because using a toolkit will make flashing roms more trouble than its worth.

Next, I have read repeatedly that the method used when the Nexus 6 first came out is still a valid and perfectly fine way to unlock, root, flash, etc , but then I have found in another thread that in order to root it you will need to flash a custom kernal of some sort so i'm unsure what I need to do.

The Nexus 6 All-in-One Beginners Guide seems pretty straightforward and easy, however this is my first time flashing anything and rooting a Nexus device so i'm unsure what I should trust.

Thanks in advance for anyone willing to help give this newbie some advice.

Any help is appreciated, I am just frustrated with trying to find a current method of unlocking, rooting, flashing, etc because nearly every thread I have read is dated back to when the device first came out and I usually am able to learn visually very easily but many videos for the N6 on youtube are from when the N6 came out, dating back 6-9 months ago.

So again, any help would be greatly appreciated because I am getting a bit frustrated with sorting out all the information and learning what I can trust so I don't damage my phone beyond repair.

Thank you again for reading and giving advice if you choose to and I apologize if this sounded like a rant. I just really need some help understanding what to do. Thank you.

If anyone is able to clear up my confusion on the issues I brought up, thank you.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRub1Out:
1. Use Wugs to unlock and root

(Sure knowing how to adb is important, but just do that)

2. Wugs will install a custom recovery - you flash roms in said recovery.

3. Apps I recommend you get after obtaining root:

(Some paid, some free)

SuperSU Pro (paid)

Buaybox Pro (paid)

Root Explorer (paid)

Titanium Backup (paid/free)

Then you'll have a pretty good start at supporting the devs, while having a good file/folder control app, and a way to protect yourself against data loss - with a simple way of reverting back to a previous build should you dislike a rom.

Keep reading. You're off to a gold start but I learn more and more every day. Never underestimate the value of reading everything prior to flashing/modifying it just might save you a headache when your phone inevitably bootloops for a silly reason.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iandrew124:
Thank you for your advice. May I ask the difference of doing it with a Toolkit rather than the ADB way ? It just seems that one is easier than the other.

May I ask the pros and cons of doing it the Toolkit way and the ADB way ?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRub1Out:
The adb way teaches you how to do it at the base level - this method would allow you to pull files/folders without the phone booting, or flash individual partitions without having to flash a whole image - there's a LOT of reasons to know and understand adb, and you eventually should, as it could save your phone when all else fails.... It has its benefits, but for simplicity's sake - for now - just use Wugs.

Using toolkits in effect gives you a crutch. With this crutch you then are forced to depend on this crutch for future needs. What happens when you get a update or different phone that Wugs doesn't work with or do what you need to do? THATS where adb understanding would come in handy.

I NEVER recommend people use toolkits exclusively as this can and WILL eventually lead to major issues that the user is now at step 1 of the learning process all over again - or - are forced to wait for toolkits to be made to do something as simple as obtain root. That's annoying.

In this case, I hope you will make yourself more familiar with adb when you can, use it, try it out, understand what it does and what it's for - but just to get you up and running you can use the kit, just don't expect it to be that easy every time because, I promise you, it won't be and at some point adb will be the only option you have. You don't want to have to be in a panic situation when that knowledge could have saved you.

That's just how I like to help people learn this stuff. Start off slow just so they can do what they want to do - but heavily stress the importance of HOW that toolkit works - because its doing what you need to learn how to do - it just does it all for you.

Don't rely on that crutch - it won't always be there.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NLBeev:
Manual flashing has the advantage that you controls the 'speed of the process. Because you have to enter commands one by one.

Toolkits use scripts instead of commands. And you have a choice from many options.

You won't be fast enough to stop when using a wrong option/script.

The post of irub1out is a good method.

After point 1. wait a day and go on with reading and posting.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
adb is not used in the rooting process. fastboot is used to unlock the bootloader and then flash a custom recovery.

It's a really simple process after installing fastboot.

1. fastboot oem unlock

2. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

3. Put SuperSU flashable zip on sdcard

4. Boot into recovery and flash that zip

There really shouldn't be any need to use a toolkit and if you do it manually, you KNOW your computer is configured properly so if you need it for recovery purposes later and something is not working, you know it's not the computer that is the issue.

Use the toolkit for other things once you've done the unlock and flash manually by all means. But NEVER use the toolkit first. This is a recipe for disaster.

Although the previous posts stress the importance of learning manually, they kind of miss part of the point as to why and I bet 90% of our experienced users here will agree with me...NO SHORTCUTS FIRST TIME.

If you need more info on fastboot, there's an adb and fastboot thread in general > sticky roll-up thread.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
I concur with [MENTION=2872010]danarama[/MENTION]. We spend half our time in this forum trying to fix mistakes made with toolkit.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
really, if the user doesnt have the proper knowledge to make the simple choices given in the toolkit, they are not going to choose the right files to do it manually.

so it makes no difference really, other than the person gaining the knowledge to understand exactly what they are doing, which i agree with,

but regardless of what any user might claim, the toolkit doesnt make mistakes. it executes the same commands you would use manually via a script based on your choices.

there is no margin of error other than the users input.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
j

first off, toolkits DO occasionally make mistakes, it has been proven, so dont argue with that. sure, its not always, but it happens. secondly, the user choosing files.. ok, if you do it the right way, there are only two files you need. and the user doesnt have a choice to pick them. they are the twrp recovery, and supersu. the user has to go find them, not pick out of a list. and witj my time on the n6 since last November, not one person picked the wrong files to root their phones. again, its because they arent given a choice.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
...and to ensure fastboot is Working, as I mentioned in my post. So it does make a difference.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
a person gaining knowledge to understand what they are doing is by far the most important thing that can happen. thats something thatll never happen with a root toolkit.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
Iv'e had several good flashes and some bad using the exact same files and same options during testing and playing. Worst button/option to even be available to noobs is the lock after flash or even a relock button at all. Remove that option and you are pretty much safe from hard brick. Then only have to come back and ask us to walk through fastboot when the flash goes belly up. Need an audit on how many times we have seen this exact scenario. :p:cool:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
That's another good point.. When 5.1 came out and locking the bootloader after flash, if it didn't boot, it would be a brick.. Toolkits would do this after a flash and brick phones.. You have to wait until the toolkit is updated before using it safely.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
i sir, will argue with whatever i wish. :P

in the year i maintained a toolkit for the last moto i had, 20k+ downloads, not one user accused the toolkit of flashing something it wasnt supposed to. the code is fairly simple, one option points to a command and file (simply put), etc. etc.

is it possible some one in a million error happened, doubtful but ok.

my comment was more directed at the previous poster who said something about spending 1/2 his time helping users with toolkit problems.

thats very unlikely, unless the toolkit coding is done very poorly.

---------- Post added at 12:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 PM ----------

how about you quote the rest of my sentence next time, where i agreed with your logic on that.

unless your intentionally trying to start an argument? cause thats what it looks like.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Because the rest of your sentence was nothing to do with what I wanted to say and you didn't agree with my logic at all. In fact your sentence (even complete) suggests that what I had said wouldn't even factor in to anything.

I'm 35 years old. I've got better things to do than try to create arguments in Internet forums. I was expanding on your sentence on something you missed. Kick yourself for the omission, not me for pointing it out.

Don't be so bloody confrontational. You're coming off as a petulant child, as does everyone who starts a sentence "how about" without trying to understand what they're talking about first.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
if i can get someone that will make a toolkit that does what it does, and goes through every step explaining the process of what its doing and how to do it manually, id be a happy man. seriously.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
funny, it looks like i am agreeing with the manual logic...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I honestly considered making that in the past.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 PM ----------

That's not what we're talking about. I never said you didn't agree with the "manual logic"

Please re-read my post. I think you've misunderstood what I said. Let me know if you'd like me to explain what were talking about afterwards if you still dont understand
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
Tbh, not using toolkits comes down to this:

Its the easiest ****ing thing ever to do with out one. If you need one, you have a major gap in your understanding... And you need to fix that first. Well you don't "need" to unfortunately, but acquiring root access is taking over being the admin for your device. If you are choosing to do that, you should probably understand the basic tools.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johninor:
I am in approximately the same position as the OP with a brand new Nexus 6 and I have a question. Should I take any OTA updates that are available before starting the unlock bootloader and rooting process?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you can, it wont hurt. or you can unlock your bootloader, flash the latest factory image, then flash twrp recovery and supersu for root.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
I would unlock before taking an update. If it bootloops your toast right off the bat.
