Hey, i just replace my digitizer for my t-mobile hd2 and successful got it back together and thought that everything was work, but i could not get the volume button in. I got it in after putting the chassis on but the volume button still doesn't work. So if anybody could give me some input on this that would be very helpful.
Do you feel the button take action when you press it? If it does, then the contact is made with the button, the problem might be something else.
a guy from HTC repair said its better to change whole screen instead of replacing digitizer.
As mentioned, can you feel the button depressing when you add pressure to the rocker? Pull the case back off and press the button manually to see if it works when powered on. If it works then, realign the flex cable and retry. If it still doesn't work, then you most likely damaged the flex cable and need to replace it.

In addition to said above check housing screws, they must be tightened because if they are missing plastic volume keyboard will misalign with flex cable volume keys and it will be impossible to press them.

At first i forgot to put back the last 4 screws so the housing was not on tight enough but i now i did that and its still not working. So now im going to try look over the flex cables again and hope that will works.

After disassembly i found out that the flex cable for the volume button was damaged (probably while trying to put the volume button in) and i have to figure out where i can get a new one but Thanks everyone for there time and help.

It can be found on eBay for about 43-44 bucks. Good luck!
Any know a online vendor or part number for those tiny little swiches on flex cable to control vol up & down?
One fell off (the button part) and I rather solder a new button (.10 piece)
then buy a $50 new flex cable.
Maybe mouser has then but I have no idea where to search
usualy i am good with physical problems like this but i am now forced to make my own thread because i have no idea why my device wont power on.
after opening my blackstone/touch hd to tighten my screws, my power button has stopped working.
(fyi, a screw came loose a while ago near my sim card after dropping my devive so i thought id tighten all my screws while i had my screwdrivers out fixing my cousins phone)
however, without having the plastic power button attatched to the device, i am able to press the actual button with my stylus and make contact with the main button on the motherboard, the device will now power on.
(eliminating that the actual button to power on is broken)
but, when i attatch the plastic button and press it to power on the device, it doesnt make contact with the actual button inside on the motherboard.
(not making contact with the button on the motherboard)
i have examined the plastic button, all is intact and i am assembling it to the device correctly.
i have examined the actual power button on the motherboard and that is working perfect.
what the hell is going on?
thanks
Rn
ps, i need my power button
cba putting my stylus in and taking it out whenever my backlight goes off
* if you want a picture of my plastic button, i will dissasemble my device and take a picture.
Pictures ?
I asked my dad to put in my new battery fro the zte axon 7 and after he was done he some how broke the power button. not the one on the back shell of the phone but the one on the strip and the screen. the small plastic sheet with the black thing in the middle is missing. I was wondering how can I fix it or turn it on without the power button working.
just plug in your charger and it will boot up just fined. im also had broken power button+volume
and been using it for 3 weeks already

if you can't just connect it to turn on, expose the buttons strip and take a look at the power button. If the small piece of metal is still soldered, take it out and use something metallic to connect the pads that are below (there should be 2, maybe 4 i don't remember). The phone should turn on.
You'll have to buy the strip off of Aliexpress or somewhere like that, someone else here broke the button the same way and had to buy one from China
Good afternoon, see if you can help me.
I have received a Psmart that got wet and with some rusty part, I have managed after cleaning the rust and changing the screen (15e) that everything works except the power button.
The button works well but looking at the motherboard it seemed to me that something was missing and looking for photos I have located that the rust ate the resistance of the power button, and therefore it does not turn on (to turn on, I disconnect the battery and then I connect it to the power supply)
Could someone tell me the value of that resistance?
I attach an image of the area of the plate and a diagram of the resistances, I am missing the one indicated with the arrow that I put as 1.
Thanks!!
