Desire hd randomly lowers volume all the way till vibration

Hi I've just gotten my desire hd from m1 in singapore and I noticed that my phone will just randomly decrease volume still the edu till it toggles into vibration mode. It's as if the lower volume button was being pressed for a long duration. is this a bug? It just does that without me touching the phone and will keep vibrating unless I press the volume up button.

Sounds like something is bridging the contact under the button.
Possibly a fault, take your DHD back and get a replacement.

Hmm~ do I take it back to my teleco provider or I have top bring it to an official htc retail

press harder. I learned quickly that it takes a firm push and you have to hit the button w/o your fingers getting caught up on the sides of the phone.
it's either that or you got a bad button

I have the same issue, this along with the lag I get at times when I attempt to use the camera has me seriously considering returning this phone. The Inspired I returned had non of these issues just a tinny speaker.

Mine wouldnt go to sleep today when pushing the button. Seems to be a few bugs with this phone eh?

I'm starting to look at re-mapping the keyword to allow the volume keys to wake it up, and then use the fingerprint reader to unlock it. That power button seems to fragile to me. To turn the screen off I just use Extended Controls.
Any thoughts?

Widget locker has an option to use the vol buttons for wake

I kinda have the same problem but its when i press the lock button the screen shuts off but then comes right back on. I press it again, it shuts off, then comes right back on.

I had the same problem - power button wouldn't wake phone from sleep.
I had to do a battery pull to resolve the issue.
I'm using the lastest FW.

Motorola phones (Not just Atrix, but Droid X also) have some funky business that sometimes prevents/delays the screen from turning on, even if the button press is registered. This happens with the power button and also the volume buttons if they're used to wake the device (Like with WidgetLocker). I haven't been able to narrow it down, but I suspect it's related to (ab)use of PowerManager's preventScreenOn()

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It sounds logic to me, because even editing the right keyboard file to add a wake_dropped to the volume down, it won't turn on the screen. I hate when they change things the way they do with this, the bootloader, etc.

Screen turning on again after pressing the off button?

Every now and then when I turn the screen off, the lock screen will turn on but then the screen turns back on 1 second later.
Anyone else having this issue

Yeah, it happens at least once a day it seems. Couldn't say why though...

what rom are you both using??????

I get that sometimes if I have accidently pressed the volume rocker whilst doing so, not sure if this is the cause of this for you but is for me!

[Q] Change Unlock Button from power key to any other Button.

Is there any option to change unlock screen from power button to any other button.I feel by continuous use of power button may damage.Please help?

In cyanogen can wake up with volume keys

CM7 based Roms allow you to set your volume keys to wake your phone. But you'll still have to press the power button if you want to put it back to sleep.
Not sure about other Roms.

Actually you can download "Screen off and lock" app from market and lock the phone using your screen/long press search button...

WidgetLocker (Lockscreen replacement, get it via the market) also supports waking up your device via volume buttons.
A lot of other costum ROM's provide flashable zip's to wake the device up via volume buttons like ARHD. (As someone said, CM7 has this feature integrated)

Thanks for the reply quickly bros and one thing always using power button will damage or no problem for using.

No, it shouldn't, it's made to be extensively used, as long as you treat it with some care, you shouldn't be afraid...

Is it possible to wake mytouch with buttons on CM 7 Nightlies?

Hi i really like CM 7 nightlies, but it's kinda annoying to wake the phone by the power button and my trackpad is broken. I know that there is a wake by volume button option but i prefer not to use it because i listen to music a lot and waking the screen every time i change the volume and turning off the screen is annoying. So i was wondering if there is an app or some option in the settings that i missed that enables wake by any other button like the home or genius button?
