so i know that the manual says to bring up the bootloader to hold down the volume down and briefly press the power button, i just bought a slide today and was messin around with button combitations and found that power + home + back buttons from the off position boot striaght into fastboot. i'm not sure if that makes a difference.
U might wanna follow the rooting the slide thread in the development part of this forum. They are getting pretty close to rooting it.

Is there anyway to undo gfree?? I think I messed up my phone by rebooting it and pressing volume up, every now and then my power button doesn't go to sleep when I pressed it after a while 10-20secs it will prompt shutdown selector, at first I thought its broken but when I fast boot it keeps on pressing power button and it goes around and around.
Any help or suggestions would be pretty much appreciated thnks....

Lmfao couldn't resist I'm sorry I'm of no help to you
Yes, you can undo gfree, see the Wiki for details.
But it sounds to me like your Power button is stuck, nothing to do with gfree IMHO.
I agree with steviewevie, you should check your power button.
You can use the KeynrTracker app in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464
I know there was an app that monitored key input events and was very useful when I was modding my keymap file, but I can't remember its name.
Thank you guys so much for helping me around my problems, I didn't undo gfree bcoz of the button remapper you showed me but one thing what if I put power button to none what will happen how can I turn it on??
EDIT: nothing had worked from button remapper, still green light on gfree
EDIT: its working cause I was so stupid that I put power to power and just changed it to none sorry guys, undo gfree no go..

Ok, really noob.
I turn the phone off every night but sometimes I forget if I turned it off or not.
As far as I know, we can only click the power button to light the screen but if the phone is already shutdown it will turn on again.
Is there any other key to touch the phone so we'll able to see if it's on?
Hold town power and vol down. If it is on it will.go to.the lock screen and if it is off hboot will appear, wait for the green text to go and then use vol keys to navigate to fastboot and press power to select and then navigate to power down and press power

ok I searched thru all threads, im trying to create a backup with clockwork. I have rooted with clockworkmod and have no clue how to get to it. I am a noob but have rooted and have flashed FROYO on my EPIC. I do have titanium backup aswell, but lookin for the other backup incase i decide to flash back to stock for the OTA FROYO. THanks, Please STEP BY STEP, Or atleast point me to a thread that tells it cause ive been searchin for a hour now
Hold Down the power,volume up,volume down and camera all at the same time and you are know in clockwork.
Also to navigate in it use the voulume up down and camera to select.
Also you can use the keyboard dpad with the enter button for select.
Another nice button combo is camera,power and volume up i think is a soft reset.
Hope this helps.
that isnt working for some reason, just reboots back to up. I was holding volume rocker, power and camara. do i have to do something before i shut down? or start to reboot when the lights are on after shutting down??

When the phone is on hold:
Power
Camera
Volume up
Volume Down
It will work believe me..
Just keep trying sometimes if you miss a key it will activate the reboot button combo..
If your phone is off: Hold camera power and volume down i think...
The phone has to be powered off. And then you hold volume down button, camera and power button until you are at the green cwm menu.

no it doesnt it can be on and you can hold both volume rockers, camera and power and it will take you to clockwork with out power off..
But yes your way works with the phone off..
For Sh*ts and giggles I thought I'd try both methods mentioned here and yes they both work.

Hi !
I bought a Nexus 4 for 10 bucks from a taxi driver knowing it has this problem . I searched the whole internet and barely found some info, most of the people who got this problem just force closed it and then it worked. But with this one, it happens everytime i turn it on.
You can see the problem in the video.
Also, if i let it boot, i can change the volume and i managed to turn on the flash, so the touch is working. And the screen does the same thing if i wake it, but it's not that bright..
Can anyone help me ?
I don't know if it has root or anything, if you can at least help me with a guide to flash it without knowing anything about the software or the settings in it, i'd be really thankful!

Hi
If you can go to stock recovery i.e press an hold volume down+power button until you see bootloader.
Then press volume down key until you see recovery. Press power button to select.
Then press an hold power button and press volume up key and release all keys.
Now you are in recovery.
You can do a factory wipe.
See if that solves the problem.
Good Luck
