the strange is that the power + volume up together active the menu recovery, but than non work (vol. too)
and the warranty has gone few months ago, sometimes is less expensive buy a new one, but money and Portugal does mix in this last few times
I'm trying to goggle to find the hidden reset bottom but no luck until now

Well I didnt even do it on a rom flash. All I did was start installing MS net compact on my mda since I needed it to run a new program. As it was installing I hit the camera button while setting it on the desk by mistake and the screen slowly faded out to black. MDA wont restart now, wont even power on and I cant even get to the bootloader mode using the power button and camera button. GRRRRRRRRRRR Any ideas?
completely discharged battery?
no, fully charged. I said screw it and took a circuit board out of a busted screen mda I had laying around that I bought for 20 bucks off a guy. Of course the volume tab was broke off the slider in that one so now I dont have a way to use the slider. You just cant win I quess. It least it boots fine with the other board in it. Anyone know of a fix for a broke volume slider?
Take off the battery for half an hour or so, then try to start the WIZ again afterwards!
While removing the battery hold the power button and continiue to hold it for 30 seconds after you removed the battery! Leave the device without the battery for at least 30 minutes!
When placing the battery back in to the device hold the power button before doing so and keep holding the power button while putting in the battery. Wait a few seconds when done and try then to power on the device!
If nothing happends press and hold the CON button on the left together with the VOICE DIAL button on the right and make a reset while holding those buttons.
Let me know if it worked!
Do I have a brick too
I tryied to install a rom and after following all the instructions I made a hard reset then my phone stay's in the boot screen without continuing!!; my question is do I have a brick or there's a way out!!
thanks

Help! It appears to still be charging, but after 100s of power button presses, no boot.
Any thoughts?
:-(
Did you take out the battery? If not, try it.
Try holding Power + Vol down + Trackball for more than 30 seconds to do a soft reset. Probably a long shot by who knows.

That doesn't sound good. I don't know if any of this will help but you can try the following: I would say try removing the battery and disconnecting the charger. Try turning on a few times with out power to drain any residual power. Then pop the battery back in and try to turn it back on again.
If that doesn't work, try a hard reset.
I believe the factory reset options are:
1) Turn the power off. If your Nexus One is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
2) Hold the Volume Down button
3) Press and release the Power button
You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock
4) Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button
5)Press and release the Power button
Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO
If you selected YES, all data including third-party applications will be deleted from the device. Once
Tried the soft reset, nothing happened.
No screen and no trackball light when I press power button.
Warranty exchange, as long as there arent any physical/visible damage.
there is a scuff in the corner, so yeah, there is visible damage.
I feel nauseous....

Yeah, but a scuff could be from anything... there's no way to know that you dropped the phone and it's no longer working because of that. Just tell them you don't know what happened and you need a warranty claim. They should repair your phone.
Just got off the phone with phoneclaim.com, and apparently after getting a letter saying they wouldn't cover the Nexus One (the same day i broke mine) they have a new one on back order for me. My deductable is like 130. Perhaps I can warranty my current one and keep the new one for backup?
What a day...
I have cyanogenmod on this phone, is that going to change things when I send it in for a warranty claim?
Hi all,
I have accident on sea where one wave splashed a bag where my phone was. After small problems with "laggy" buttons everything went fine and my phone worked correctly except power button. It doesn't react. I couldn't even restart the phone. And when my battery was used I coudnt turn it on. I tried to press volume up + power button million times, or all 4 buttons, and somehow I manage to turn it on again while still I was on vacation. Few times I have entered Android recovery screen, and Power button worked perfectly there (I managed to press power button and select reboot device). And after the phone turn on power button would usually works few minutes and then it would died again.
I have installed software for simulation of power button and it worked ok. This morning somehow I decided to turn off my phone, and I couldn't even imagine what kind of problems I will have to turn it on again. Whole day I am trying to turn it on, but it doesn't react. When I pull in charger then it shows regularly battery status (70%). I am desperate :crying:
I am trying to google or find any solution how to bring it ON again without power button, but without success
Is there any way how could I turn Samsung galaxy S6 Edge Plus without power button?
And what you think, is this some kind of software problem, and maybe some factory reset or flashing might help? Or it is more likely hardware problem?
Many thanks in advance.
Can anyone help me?
I have just found this article which might help me:
How to turn ON Galaxy S6 without using the power button:
When the Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 Edge is turned off, press and hold the volume button for a few seconds.
While holding the volume button, connect the Galaxy to a computer using a USB cable.
Wait for your phone to boot to Download mode.
Then press down on the volume rocker to cancel the operation.
After the operation has canceled, the Galaxy will reboot and turn on.
You have successfully turned on the Galaxy S6 without using the power button.
source: http://recomhub.com/blog/how-to-turn-on-and-off-galaxy-s6-without-power-button/
But somehow this doesn't work for my phone? First I wasnt sure which volume button should be pressed, so I tried with both in all combinations and still cant get into Download mode.
But I am glad that samsung had created some workaround if power button is not working. THis used to work on older models I guess.
Is there anyone who might know the way how to turn on phone without power button?
Hello, some days ago my phone suddenly got black screen, the buttons light ON, it also vibrates, if i double press the home button it enter the camera because the shutter souns, led notification also lights, seems like everything work but the screen keeps black..
I tried sme of the method around the web:
Power button + volume down (FAILED)
Power button + volume up (FAILED)
Power button + volume down + Home (FAILED)
Power button + volume up + Home (FAILED)
Delete cache (FAILED)
Factory Reset (I THINK IT FAILED, IT WAS HARD TO ENTER TO RECOVERY AND SELECT FACTORY RESET SINCE THE SCREEN DOESNT TURN ON)

Fast fast try to return it before Trump wins . He will build the wall you know... Jk...
For my opinion LCD has to be changed. Due drop or in your pocked from high pressure i think its gone ...
Since as you said phone is working you can take pictures or receive calls but screen is always black.
Can you see its black color or screen isn't turning at all.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Mine started with green stripes allover the screen and few days later - "black screen"
Samsung change the whole unit.
But if lcd doesnt work so, it wont recognize when i press the screen, can it?
Anyone with this problem

S7 Edge BSoD Extra Info. needed
Hi,
Phone: I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge SM-G935FD
I was using my phone to send a txt (and at the same time I think I was receiving a text or call because the menu and back touch buttons were lit up) and all of a sudden the phone crashed as I tried to finish my text but the touch wasnt responding, then the backlight turned of like it does if the phone is not being used. But the strange thing was that the menu and back touch buttons stayed lit up (Solid).
I tried many methods to restart the phone:
Power button + volume down (FAILED)
Power button + volume up (FAILED)
Power button + volume down + Home (FAILED)
Power button + volume up + Home (FAILED)
So I thought I'll let the battery die and then recharge and hopefully the phone would automatically restart like normal, however the phone does not show sign of charging now.
So I tried to connect to the PC but it wasn't being recognized however when I press and hold the power button a sound of detecting a device sounds and then when I take my finger off the sound of detaching occurs. But I couldn't see anything happening, until I went into device manager, under "Other Devices" , "Exynos8890" appears which I know is the chipset.
This is as much as I know of the problem. How do I solve thins problem without trying to factory reset the phone and lose all my data?
PS: I didn't backup my photos (My baby children only copies) or Notes in NotePad, which has some very important info.
Hello, I hope this is the right forum for my question, sorry if I made a mistake. Anyway, my uncle bought this phone month ago in another country, everything worked fine until yesterday when LCD stopped working. After some time of trying to fix it, we concluded that if you press volume (up, down or both at the same time) button and then the power button, screen turns on and works for some time (couple minutes) but then goes black again. If you just press power button (without pressing volume button) it stays black but you can still hear it unlocks when you slide your finger across the screen, so touch screen works, phone works but LCD is black. I am guessing it's loosing connection but how does it turn on every time when I press volume button? It's very confusing. Phone was in a protective case since first day and it hasn't been dropped. Since it's bought in another country, it would cost more to return it there than to buy new one, so do you have any ideas? I have been replacing lcd screens for my friends last two years so I was thinking maybe I can disassemble it and check connections. Any help? sorry for my bad english

Hello there, I'm from Brazil, as my english may not be the best lol... So I have same phone as you and similar problem... The problem is that volume down doesn't work. Other buttons work fine though. Also, the phone always enters in safe mode, so I assumed the volume down button is being pressed all the time. Except that, I realized that I could enter in download mode (I tested, if I don't press volume down in the combo 'power button + home + volume down' it won't get into download) and if I press volume down to cancel it will actually cancel and restart the phone. So the button is working... Here is the part where I think the problem is similar. There was a time I turned the phone off, through the system as we normally do, and then it wouldn't turn on again. I realized it was actually turning on, but the screen was black. I tried entering download mode and tested on odin and it actually had entered download mode, but the screen was black... Then after several attempts it finally got back on again... So I think there is something related with the button circuit with the lcd, I don't know. I would like to know if you got to any solution there. I guess that instead of bringing you any solution I'm bringing another problem lol. Well if I have any other information I will post it here. Best wishes.
