I recently got my G2 D802 wet in rain. It was in my Rain jacket's pocket, and got a little wet, i turned it off and cleaned it with tissue and put in a plastic bag. when i came back to home i sucked air from speakers grill and turned it on. it opened fined except touch was not working in certain areas, then I opened its back casing (its easy) and used hair drier to dry it for over 1 hour, i dint put drier too close in case phone gets too hot, but im sure i dried it well, then i turned the phone on and it worked fine, untill next day when its power button started acting weirdly. power button works fine, it turns phone off, unlocks it, only problem occurs when it doesn't turn off screen when phone is unlocked. like when screen is on. i have tried locking and unlocking in recovery TWRP and it works fine there. just having problem when phone is on. any suggestions? im on Cloudy Rom 2.1.
thanks.
PS: i just check again, when phone is locked and screen off, and i press and hold power button, it displays power off menu and also opens QUICK MEMO, so i guess when screen is unlocked , power button acts as vol up and power button?
Probably some water short circuit your buttons. A good manner of dry wet phone is:
Disconnect battery
Put the phone in rice for almost 24 hours
Reconnect battery ......Pray... And turn it on

Hi!
I had some liqiud_on_phone (eco bathroom cleaner ) problem two months ago, but I've disassembled phone, dryed by paper towel and hair dryer (on lowest setting with cold "blow") and nothing was broken. sim card and microsd card were wet by this liquid which I believe wasn't electricity conductor - phone was powered on for quite long time after that "situation".
Since one month I have problem with unlocking phone from lock screen. WinMO or Android - doesn't matter - always the same:
when I press power button touch screen doesn't responds, but when I press other hardware buttons I can unlock phone. Only after reboot there is some time where power button works ok.
Did anyone have same problem and where can I find solution for this?
OK, now I've figured it out... On 99% it is power button problem. When screen blanks itself then I can wake up phone by any button but power (power button wakes up but touchscreen doesn't work).
Please close/remove current thread.
Cheers!
I had a 10 minute phone call at lunch today, hung up and put the phone in my pocket. Pull the phone out maybe 10 minutes later and it is completely unresponsive to input. Double tap, power button, holding power button, holding volume down and power, holding volume up and power. Nothing works. I took the back cover off and popped the battery cable off because it was getting REALLY hot. It gets hot just to the left of the power/volume buttons toward the edge of the device. As soon as I plug the connector back in, the phone gets really hot. I have also tried connecting the phone to my PC but it remains unresponive and gets hot again.
The phone app has been acting weird lately. Like locking up my phone when I make a phone call and stuff but nothing this bad. I rarely use the phone so I didn't really try to figure anything out.
d802 on ATT
rooted with 4.4.2
I have a few rooted apps. Pie control, GMD hide softkeys, apex launcher and better batty stats. The rest just regular apps.
The issue is as follows:
I replaced my LCD, connected all cables and connectors, put the battery in, turned the phone on. Success. Then I replaced the rear cover and all of a sudden the phone froze and turned off. I soon found out that it was one bit of the back cover causing it, the bit closest to the power button. This made me think that the power button might be pressing down, but that wasn't it because it was working fine for a few seconds. I took the back cover off and pressed on the motherboard. The phone froze.
I soon found that these tiny gold contacts were causing the phone to freeze whenever they were depressed. I don't know what they do or how to fix it. The case itself is pressing these contacts down and causing the restart.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Power button on Aquos stopped working a while ago. I used to be able to squeeze the screen very hard in a certain place and press the power button to turn it on, but this no longer works. Any way to turn the phone on over USB or some other method??
lol ima genius
Well, thanks to my severe impatience, i decided to make a somewhat "oven" to heat the entire phone with a goal of re-soldering the contacts. I took one of those electric heated blankets, turned it up to max settings, tightly wrapped my Aquos in it, then wrapped the heated blanket with a comforter to insulate it. 1 hour later, i removed the phone, let it cool down for a minute, squeezed the screen just below the power button, held it down and PRESTO! it booted up. No idea if this was luck or what, but it sure did work. Any suggestions on apps to use the volume keys as power buttons or something?

Hey all,
So my dad dropped his phone and the screen appeared damaged. Tore apart his phone and it turned out the plug for the screen was just loose. Fastened the LCD plug down and put a tiny dab of super glue to keep it in place. Works great now! Cool, I thought
I cannot for the life of me put the case back on and the power button stay in place. I have no idea why, but it seems like I push on the edge of the power button and it goes into the phone, the other edge comes out, and the power button falls out.
I've watched multiple videos and the power button looks exactly the same. Anyone have experience with this or advice?
I don't know what I did but it seems to have worked. I still don't understand what went wrong the first dozen times I closed the phone up because the power button would not stay in
