[Q] Problems with power button

I looked for similar topic but couldn't find it,I can't use power button on my hd anymore,it got broken beacuse of pressing it very often during day to turn the screen on and off...I was wondering if there is an application to assign power button function to home key so when pressing it the screen turns off and on?

Hi, having the same problem, POWER BUTTON is defect/broken, it doesn't have a resistance when I push it in. I can still switch the device on and off, but I have to press the power button hard and the power button does not feel spring loaded any more.
Are there more people having this issue and is there anybody haveing it send for warranty repair already?
Mine is a German O2 device.
Thanks

Hi
What you can do is a hard reset: open up the backcover from you phone you will see underneath the SDCard a red hole that is the reset-button at first you have to press the VOLUME UP AND DOWN BUTTEN at the same time than press the reset-button with a pensil or similar I know it is very awkward you need a lots finger you can also press the power button,be patient, ok normally after the phone starts you will see a 3 COLORED SCREEN wen you see the screen stop pressing the volume button the screen will tell you what you have to do,to erase all you settings and you will be back to your previous ROM setting.

[Q] Soft Power/ Shutdown

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.

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:

[Q] Phone buttons are crazy!!

Hello everyone,
I cleaned the HTC HD2s screen with a wet cloth,
and then the problem began.
Actually, a long press on the power button should open the phone options ( restart, power off, screenshot, and more )
But when i press the power button ( where the screen should open ) the options open instead.
The back button is my power on button now.
And when i scroll the home screen its hogging at one point and wont run.
I assume that a bit water went in my phone.
In short words - my HD2 is playing crazy!
Im not good at explaining my problem....
But thats very annyoing.
Any solutions?

It's not possible, i did some tests and i noticed that the volume buttons work like power button only for a few second after screen off.
I've remapped keys and i've assigned to key 114 (volume down) the value POWER WAKE. It works fine only for a few second...it is as if the system stops feel the volume keys a few seconds after turning off the screen.
I tried on these occasions to join the pin's connector with a screwdriver and the screen is on .... then the power button feels right.
I'd like find a way to hear the system the volume button to hear the system the volume button after a few seconds after turning off the screen
