Has anyone got this yet?
http://support.sprint.com/support/a...e-wh164052-20100527-115429?&INTNAV=SU:DP:HDIA
My wife ran the update on her phone. All seemed well until this morning after having shut the phone down and restarting. Now her power button no longer works after the phone is booted. I know it's not a hardware thing because the button will turn the phone on after pulling the battery.
Anyone else see this behaviour? Also any idea how to fix? I was thinking about just reflashing the update or perhaps back revving to the previous release.
Any Suggestions?

Try taking out the battery and then holding the power button for 20 seconds
Tried - no success. I did notice though that the behaviour is different that I originally though. At first I thought I had to press the power button to turn it on after removing the battery but that is not the case. The phone is turning itself on once the battery is inserted. Further if I go into the bootloader I can't move the cursor up or down nor does the power button work in there.
I was originally thinking this may not be hardware but now I'm not so sure.

Anyone who has this update working, can you comment on whether bluetooth stack has been updated/fixed?
I heard the evo 3d has a new bluetooth stack that works great.

I would trying reflashing it like you said earlier.
Thanks
Thanks for being so quick to get this out. I just spent last 2 days fixing my Acer Tab, a BIG thanks to sc2k again. I have never been so glad I jumped from Palm OS to Android.
While I'm here, can i flash my wife's EVO to this skipping the update before this one? Thanks in advance for any help with this.
Hi guys,
I got some really annoying problems with my HD2 and can't find a solution for it.
My power button on the HD2 isn't working as intended.
If I power off the phone, I can boot it sometimes up using the power button, sometimes it doesn't respond to pressing it at all.
If I connect the phone to the computer or notebook it instantly powers up on it's own. same goes for the charger.
The strange thing is .. if the phone starts on its own (by being connected to the charger or computer) the power button is working flawlessly afterwards. Sometimes the button is working as intended, but suddenly stops working while trying to end a call or whatever.
I've currently installed Android on it .. I don't know if it's hardware or software related .... but it really drives me up the wall.
Maybe some of you are able to help me out
Best regards
:good:

Probably your END CALL/Power button is slowly dying(metaphorically speaking).
Being on Android(probably on Magldr) it's normal for your phone to start/boot up everytime is off and you plug it in(USB or charger).
IMO you should replace your hardware buttons flex or just leave it this way and avoid to use it.
Replacing it is not an easy job, I wouldn't recommend it to DIY unles you have a relevant experience on stuff like this or a very native skilled&lucky person!
Good luck!
thanks for the response.
I can't change the hardware buttons 'coz I already replaced the display and digitizer.
If I have to open the HD2 again the digitizer will separate from the display ....
too bad seems I have to bear with it
It's still hard to believe the power button is dying 'coz after the phone is automatically turned on by being plugged to a computer or the charger the button is working flawlessly.
and there are only a few seconds between it.
seems the phone has a problem recognizing the power on command if it's turned off

possible but still possible button board ...
Maybe worth trying other kernels & roms to rule out firmware issues ...
I'm trying a different battery now.
searched the internet and found someone with similar problems.
he fixed it by replacing the battery.
i'll give it a shot
edit: other battery doesn't change anything. I'll keep trying

Hi guys.
My Galaxy Note 3 power button has just completely stopped working. Is there a setting that turns off the power button functionality that I might have accidentally pressed?
Cheers.
Edit: I should elaborate here. The phone is switched on, everything works as normal but no matter how many times I try it, the power button just not do anything (holding it down, pressing different areas)

Did you try a battery reset? With the phone off, can you get into either Download or Recovery mode? That would eliminate the possibility of an OS issue.

I kind of scared to turn the thing off in case I can't switch it back on. I'll try it though.
Edit: It's dead. Taken the battery but can't switch back on now. What a joke.
Bad luck brian i feel sorry for you

I know I kind of expect this bad luck these days after having two faulty Nexus 7's. My Galaxy S2 power button is still going strong after 2 and a half years but the Note 3 lasts 7 hours

It's a dud mate. Faulty unit.
Just send it back and get it replaced.
Just send it for replacement. There's a reason phones come with a warranty that covers manufacturer defects. Whining about it to strangers in the forum is not going to fix it for you.

I was posting to see if any one else had the same problem or if it was a setting I'd missed. Arsehole.
Cheers everyone else I'll replace it tomorrow.
This is exactly the sort of thing that makes me worry about voiding my warranty. Decisions, decisions....

Yeah this is definitely the least friendly of all the Android forums. Sorry to hear you have a dud unit mate. Get it replaced.
My power button is not working to turn the screen off. Long press works to bring up the power down menu or to do a hard shut down. It works to turn back on though. Seems to happen after I plug it into the wall charger. Restoring a nandroid backup fixes the issue.
Not sure if it's related but my PC's USB crashed after trying to plug the phone in and use USB 3.0 to transfer files. I had to refresh my W8 PC to get the USB working again.
I have the Sprint version, rooted and running JellyBomb.

I have the same problem. my power button is done for. whenever i need to start it. I plug it in and go into recovery and reboot from there. I also use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenoffpro&hl=en for screen timeout and lock. And you can also get exposed and gravity box and there is a status bar tweak to double tap the status bar to lock screen (put phone to sleep).
I tried everything then found the solution on another website
My note 3 has been with me for almost 2 years now and it's power button stopped working about 2-3 months ago. Until now I avoided draining the battery below 2% and was fine but just today I dropped my phone and it shut down. I knew that my power button didn't work because of hardware problems so a soft reset didn't work for me. What I found however is that if your power button is dead you can just very quickly remove and re-insert your battery and your samsung device (I have no idea if this works on other brands) automatically boots itself. I'll give the link too incase I wasn't clear enough and I hope this helps people who shared my worries.

Hi!
For the very first time: my touchscreen suddenly stopped working! After waiting for about 5 minutes, I decided to give up and take the battery out in order to boot the phone again.
Anybody who has experienced the same problem already or knows what to do in this kind of situations? Can't imagine what to do with a phone that doesn't come with an exchangeable battery?!
Thanks in advance

this kindda system freezing happen for all devices; PC, Game-Console, SmartPhone & ... mostly because of software bug (sometimes happen when system cannot handle background process & ...)
you can turn it off by press and holding power button
Or
some combination of keys like pwr + home + vol-down to get into recovery (if i remember correctly)
:good:
Thank you. Freezing might be the correct term in order to describe this phenomenon. Holding down the power button didn't seem to work out in my case though.

Theres no ROM available right now if im not wrong and even if there were, i dont think theres a tool currently available to flash it, unless someone can check the old nokia support tool for firmware and flashing process(highly doubt)

Dude, it seems more or less battery port/connections are loose. I don't think it has something to do with s/w. Open back lid and check if the battery is moving/wobbling.. I guess if you fix that you issue is fixed.
I'm having a different problem. External earphone not detected unless I press the jack slightly to the back.
I'm using Bluetooth earphone instead.

Hey, you do not know about the phone. The battery is internal. So it is not removal. You can see videos about nokia 6 opening in youtube.
Happen once to my N6 about two weeks ago, press all three buttons together to force shutdown and restart phone. Since then everything is fine.
im also nokia 6 sufferer

why this happens to nokia 6. i tried to start usually by pressing power button but no reaction after reading this msg only i tried pressing 3 buttons it came back alive:laugh: . my doubt is is this a big problem and will it happen again:crying:
Nokia 6 Frozen
I am also having a similar problem. The screen freezes, no buttons work. This issue has come 2 times over the last 20 days. Both times i was using the google navigator /maps and was shifting between applications --> and suddenly frozen. Since Nokia 6 does not have a removable battery , I had wait it out for another 5-6 hrs till battery drained completely and I recharged it. But during travel in unknown area when your phone abandons you, you feel handicapped.
Thank You
