Power button - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got a nexus 7 but the power button doesn't work.
Can put the screen to sleep using a magnet but the power button wont work.
Im scared that if the battery goes down that it will never come back up.
Can anyone help if I could power it up without the power bottom.
Thanx

Frozen NC how to reboot?

Running phiremod 6.3 and my nook color froze up no longer responding to touch. Volume keys don't work, but I can hold down the power key to bring up the menu... just can't select anything to make it reboot. Also the screen is stuck on, won't dim, won't go off when hitting the power button.
Any suggestions on how to force a reboot or am I waiting for the battery to die?

I've only had my nc for a couple days but when mine froze I held the power button until it powered off. Maybe there is a better way.
Awesome it worked. Looks like my biggest problem was impatience lol. Just needed to hold down that power button for about 30 seconds.
Thanks for helping!

What's the best way to restart the N4 if it locks up

I was wondering because since the N4 doesn't have a removable battery, is there a way to get it to restart if the power button becomes unresponsive?
If you hold the power button long enough it will turn off, even if the os is frozen.

Won't turn off

Holding the lock button no longer brings up the menu to power off, it just locks the screen. Doesn't matter how long I hold it for nothing shows up.
Hoping I've just done something stupid?

Get out of Download mode?

I want to check the counter on my S4. Is there another way to get out of Download Mode besides pulling battery? I hate fooling with taking S4 out of case to get to battery.
Thanks

Holding the power button for about 10 seconds will turn the phone off completely. Once off you can just hold the power button again, and hopefully you'll boot up fine.

[Q] Not turning on, flashing red light, periodic vibrate

I need help diagnosing my new lg g2. After being shut off for some time, I am unable to turn the phone on. Today I plugged it in to charge (assuming battery was drained) for about 5 hours - still won't turn on. While plugged in, a red light flashes and the phone periodically vibrates. This occurs in a pattern: red light flashes 6 times, phone vibrates, and repeat. Any insight as to what these things mean?
What happens if you hold the power button for 10 seconds?

Nothing changes. I tried this both on and off the charger, tried holding down the up arrow with power button, still nothing.
Well, if it's new and you got it like this I suggest you take it back to the store. Sounds like it's broken.
