Hi,
For some reason, when i was watching a video, my Yoga Tab 3 tabled restarted in Boot Manager mode. Here, I have windows like controls, like use <ESC>/<Windows+VolUp>=EXIT. I can't find a way to get out, and rooted phones
Can anyone help me with this?
Fast help would be highly appreciated, because the screen stays continuously on and I would not want the tablet to damage itself.
Please help,
Daniel
I have no personal experience with this tablet but have you tried holding down the power button until it turns it off, then holding it again to turn it back on? Even if that doesn't work, turning it off will at least keep the screen off while you research fixes.

Hello xda people!!
After updating to 3.2.1 my 16 GB TF, I discovered having problems when trying to start the tablet in totally off mode, screen gets totally black but the system seems loading in background, after a while, I can push power button and the screen goes on, when I need to unlock screen to start working
I did a factory reset, turn on the tablet, left in standby mode and then, push the power button and nothing happens: screen dark, no matter how many times I pushed the button, so, I need to get pressed, power off and start again...
You're having problems like that because of the update? My tablet is broken and need fix?
I have restarted my tablet tree or four times after updating, bith before and after a factory reset, and haven't experienced this issue. Maybe a power button issue? Or just a SW issue. You could try flashing a custom ROM and see if the bug is still there.
Regards.
Hello, recently my phone has been having issues. The power button stopped work, it started first when I would unlock my phone, it would give me the power down screen then a few seconds later it would shut off.
Now it wont turn on... I have to pull the battery out and then put it back in then it shows the samsung logo and shuts off. To get pass the samsung logo I held the volume up button and then it will start up. I can only use my phone when I unlock with the camera which is very annoying.
I have tried just about everything and I have scoured the web to look for any sort of solution. I have hard rest, and I even tried flashing it with a rom. But the phone just shuts down.
I hate being a pain, but is there any solution?

Sounds like a hardware problem. Are you under warranty?
unfortunately, no I am not...

Luckily, I think the button is easy to change and it's cheap. But I'd go to a phone shop to confirm first (like this one in US - no affiliation, found via search).
experiencing the same thing

Hi im actually getting the exact same symptom. Did you ever get to fix yours??
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me troubleshoot my Galaxy S4 which turns itself off every time I power it on. Basically, I'll hit the power button and the Samsung logo will pop up with the the lock icon showing that the device has been rooted. Then, after a few seconds the screen will go black at which point I am unable to do anything to it other than pull the battery out and repeat the process. If I wait a few minutes though, I am able to push the power button without having to pull the battery out. In addition, if I attempt to pull the recovery menu up, it will begin to load but as before, the phone will turn itself off before I'm able to do anything useful. At one point I was able to somehow get it to load Android though that may have just been pure luck at work.
I don't believe that my root access is at fault here because I've had it for several months with no trouble to note. Immediately before this happened my power button began acting strangely in the OS. I attempted to factory reset in order to fix this and that's when this problem started. The only other which that I can think of that may have caused this is Safestrap which I uninstalled shortly after the power button began acting up.
Does download mode also reboot? Then it's definetely some hardware malfunction.
By the sound of it it's a malfunctioning power button.
Thanks!

Thanks for the help Lennyz, I was starting to think the same thing myself. I'll have to take it in for repairs.
Guys,
so i've done some searching to no avail so i'm desperately asking for some help so i can fix my pregnant's wife cell phone (she really needs it)
I rooted her LG G2 (ATT) some time back. I never installed any recovery or custom ROM. She received an update software notification and I told her not to accept. Well coincidently later on in the day her phone stopped working (she states she did press software update button).
He phone is bricked and boots only to the LG G2 logo and she gets a boot certification error and phone turns off (but i think screen still off).
Attempting to do a hard reset did not work, i got the same LG screen with same error
I decided to flash back to stock, i understand the process and have done this before on my LG G3.
Only problem is when i try to go into download mode and plug USB into phone I get pop up messages on my laptop asking me to format local disk h: I notice that every time I attempt to go into download mode and plug the phone in, i get a bunch of local drives that pop up. I tried formatting out of desperation, but it told me disk was protected.
No idea wha'ts going on. Anyone know why i get a bunch of local drive disks instead of my phone going into download mode when i plug into my laptop?
I greatly appreciate the help, i've been at this for 3 hrs and i'm frustrated.
I think my problem may be that the phone is not truly "OFF" and i don't know how to turn this completely off since there's no battery to pull. I'm not even sure if this is the problem, but just an idea.
I tried letting the phone die completely. I thought i'd be able to let it die, charge it a bit, then hold volume up and plug it into computer to get into download mode. I thought i was a genius, until the phone died and as soon as i plugged it into charge it automatically went into bootloop again.
I think the problem is that i can't turn off the phone to get into download mode.
Any ideas?
bumping in this in hopes of some help. Still can't get this thing to go into download mode.

When I get a boot certification error my phone is always in a state when I can never truly turn it off.
When I hold the POWER button it turns OFF, then immediately turns ON again when I release the POWER button.
My solution? Hold the POWER button down for about 30 seconds.
My screen turns off at around the 10 second mark and after a while I let go of the POWER button and my phone stays OFF.
It's probably best to do this in a dark room so you can tell if the screen is really OFF.
If you're having trouble truly turning your device OFF, try THIS tutorial. It involves removing the rear case of your G2 and disconnecting your Battery.
Okay now.. assuming you got your phone to turn OFF.. continue reading..
Make sure you have the LG Drivers installed on your PC. You can download them HERE.
After installing those Drivers, download and install the Universal ADB Drivers from HERE.
Now after doing the above, try Download Mode again. Hold Volume UP and plug your phone into your PC via USB (keep holding Volume UP until you see "Download Mode").
Success? If so.. visit THIS tutorial and do the "TOT Method".
No Success? Post back and let me know :good:. You may need to follow THIS tutorial as a final solution.

I am trying this now. I was uncertain of my wife's phones fate and gave up on it so this morning i had to go to ATT and get her a new phone. She travels alot and is pregnant so she needs a phone and i had no choice but to upgrade her to the S6(she was long over due)
I am still going to try this method so i can restore and sell on ebay. Hope it works!
You're welcome.

You're more than likely going to have to do the last option I linked you to, which requires a unix-like environment. If you need any help with that just send me a PM or post in that thread specifically.
Hi all.
I have this strange issue with my Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 plus (YT-X703F): while using it, suddenly the screen goes off. I cannot say that the tablet itself goes off because I still can see some backlight on the screen. It happens a few minutes after I start to use it. Then I keep pushing the power button till it vibrates and restarts. Again a few minutes and goes off.
Sometimes, after I restart by keeping push the power button, it entries into a boot loop.
Already tried a hard reset but didn't help.
If I succeed in power on and I do not use it for a while, when I get it back it works (mean didn't switch off when hidle).
I'm not able to enter into recovery mode, any combination of power +vol up or down didn't show me the menu.
Any idea how to recover this device? Is there any method to flash bios/rom or anything else I can do, something that I can do without to entry into the recover menu?
Thank you everyone for your help.
