Hello everyone,
I have a problem with my T3333 clone (from China, dealextreme phone) and maybe you can help me.
The problem is with the POWER button (the one on the top of the phone).
The button is working badly, it is hard to push it, and when I do (after I force it) it remains pushed and the phone attemps to shutdown (and I decline the shutdown using touchscreen).
Please:
Is there a way to solve this using a SOFTWARE solution? I was wondering any way to avoid the POWER button, replacing it with the END CALL physical button. Maybe not fully replace it, but a way to turn on and off the screen with another physical button (any other button, doesn't matter).
Thanks in advance,
cru5h
forgot to tell:
OS is Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
Build 21840.5.0.60

hi friends
i hav htc touch gsm and now its power button is totally dead, i was starting it from sleep mode with headphone by double pressing its button(just like we do while making calls )now the problem is that the mobile gets turned off now i want to start it is there ne alternate ways to do that ..i visited the service center they said that to recover the problem some hardware must be changed which cost me more than 50% of the moblie price....help me out guys i want to start my phone....
thnx
me too
hi me too facing the same problem did u get any solution for this if there is some way out to shift the function on the camera button maybe i don know.
OP, what did they say needed to be changed on the phone, did you need a new power button switch or something? you could always try and source a replacement one.
If ti is the button that hits the switch is broken, maybe a new case?
go to setting>system>key lock>and select dont lock buttons
when your mob sleeps simply press any button to on the disply
Hey
Recently, I've got strange problems with my hardware keys on my (European) hd2. When I press the home or the back button, they work sometimes like the volume buttons. So the home button decreases the volume and the back increases it.
I'm using Artemis v43 with WinMo 6.5.5, but I had the same experience on all stock rom versions (that's why I got rid of them)!! Even if I m using Android the buttons are still weird. (In Androd it's extremly annoying due to the immensive use of the back button ).
Has anyone else the same experience and how did you solved this? Or should I send it to HTC to repair it?
Thanks for your help

maybe you had a short in your motherboard, i would recommend contacting HTC, as it is a hardware problem
Thanks.
Yeah, it really seems to behardware stuff. I'll contact HTC.
I know we still need to press the power button But is it possible to have a soft button for power down/ reb00t instead of pressing the Physical button for a few seconds?
it could help to prolong the Power Key which is might also be the problem for those non responsive screens :silly:
Terminal Emulator.
type "su", then "reboot" for reboot. Want a shutdown? Reboot, but take the battery out after it reboots.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On WM6.5.x I have used utask almost since I got the device brand new & used the extra soft button for power off & shutdown thus hardly ever used endkey button & power up from standby was normally windows key for me as that was best key for my handling of device.
Also my device has had light use & physically gentle use too but still the display issue has occurred.
Having spoken to our device supplier (we have over 20 HD2's) his opinion is even without use the ribbon cable to digi bonding breaks down as he seen same issue on never used old stock after a few days or a months use ...
Hardware quality of the HD2 is a long way from what HTC use to be ...
Poor digi, Mainboard BGA soldering/thermal control & speaker issues are way too common ...
there exists a touch-based solution for android also...i forget the exact name but it was widely distributed with gingerbread android builds in the time period when devs had not yet figured out the hd2 key mapping to bring up the power menu more than once with the end call key.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using xda app-developers app
Download Quickboot (reboot) app from play store and put it on your home screen. It brings up a power menu for re-boot, power off, recovery etc.
Also try screen lock and off app. It turns off the screen. To turn the screen back on, use any of the hard buttons.
I use both these to save using the hard buttons.
^ hey it actually works, tnx :good:
Hi, with any android rom the screen works very bad when i touch the screen for select anything...
I need touch 2 o 3 times for select
With android 2.3.7 and 4.0...
Can you help me=?
Thanks a lot !
It's most probably a hardware issue. Does this happen in other OSes? Try the digitizer trick which basically means pressing down very hard on the power (end call) button and then waking the phone up with any other hardware key. If possible, you should use a power softkey as well to prevent the digitizer from wearing out.
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
