My DHD Home & Search buttons, and occasionally the back button also, stop working after a while. Sometimes its only a few minutes after a soft reset, other times it may take an hour or so before it happens.
With the Home button, the screen just flashes when I press it but nothing happens - it doesn't go Home. With the Search button, nothing happens at all.
When I soft reset the DHD the buttons then return to normal for a while, but I've been unable to determine what causes it. I've run virus checks, and they are ok.
It doesn't affect the Menu button.
Any ideas?

Hi,
I am using iPad 912c. I love this machine but the little silver power button is acting funny sometimes. Normally, when I press the button the screen should be turned off immediately. But sometimes the screen still on for 4-5s after pressing the button. First I thought I didn't press the button properly. But if I press the button several times the machine can remember how many times I pressed and switch the screen on and off (sometimes ask me if I want to turn off) like having a ghost inside. Looks like it has a buffer for the power button. I don't think it is the software problem. Because I tried to soft reset the machine. The machine still remember how many times I pressed the button before reseting and turn on and off the screen several times after the machine back on. It happens twice a week. Is it a hardware or software problem? If it is hardware problem the iPad should not know I pressed the button several times. This is not a popular machine but I am sure it is one of the best. Please help. Thanks.
Anyone has the same problem? Please help
Hi!

Or something...?
Please help.

if u do (have issues..) then backup using spb backup (or any..) then hr your device and check if with a clean device all is good
I was playing a game on my Vibrant on my break earlier today and upon exiting it my screen locked up. Rather than wait for it, I pressed the power button to turn the screen off and went back to work.
A little later I brought it out to check the time and saw that the screen was on am pretty sure I saw that it said "Scanning media" at the top and assumed it had reset itself. A little bit after that I checked my phone again and saw the NoLed icon for new emails. I pressed the power button to turn on the screen and then tried to swipe it to unlock it but nothing happened.
That's pretty much where I am now. The volume and power buttons work but the screen is unresponsive (I can bring up the "Phone Options" screen but can't select any of the options) and none of the "soft" buttons on the bottom work either. Is my only option to do a hard reset?
And if it helps, this is a completely stock phone. Never been rooted.
I would just pull the battery.
I remember having something like that with NoLED, tr pressing the power button to wake it up and press the home key (unless you have it disabled in NoLED prefs) to get to the lock screen and unlock it.
Press and hold the power button until the phone reboots. That should take care of it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks! That did the trick. Could have sworn I tried that already but apparently I didn't hold it down long enough.
I'm running a completely stock phone and unrooted. For some reason my power button stopped working properly yesterday. When I press it the screen won't turn off anymore. The only way to turn it off is to set the screen time out to a shorter interval. The only thing I can think of that I did before it stopped working was trying to take a screenshot by pressing the hardware back button and home key several times like it said in that thread. I also tried doing it with the backspace button and home button. I wonder if I hit some weird keyboard combo that disabled the power button screen shutoff. It will still give me th "power off/silent/airplane" options if I do a long press.

Okay, I fixed it. I don't know what originally caused the problem, but I manually updated all the system options: firmware, profile, PRL, and Android, even though there were no actual updates to download. Pressed the power button and it's back to normal.
Whew...I can change my timeout back to 30 minutes.
I'm having power up problems.When I press the power button sometimes it will come on no problem other times nothing will happen and I'll have to push the button several times before it comes on. Other times only the buttons on the bottom will light up but nothing else. Also, sometimes when I press the button it will come on straight to the home screen without me needing to unlock it.
Hi guys!
What's happening its that I bought the phone online, it's basically like brand new! No damaged on the buttons or a si gles minor scratch.
The problem is that the phone is always pressing the power button, sometimes I get in to a loop of restart sometimes I can use the phone normally and even sometimes I am using the phone and it stats to lock it self or open the camera (that usually happen when you double tap the power button) I already contact Essential but, by the way I bought it I doubt that they will do something, this happens without need of touching the phone. So I am sure that this it's not a defect on the button directly
I was thinking on root the device and by any way, disable the power button, I already try with button remaper or apps like that but, they don't work with the power just with the volume which sometimes it press it self as well.
Thanks in advance
