Hi,
sorry if this not correct place to post, please admins if possible to move my thread to correct section.
I have galaxy j1 2016 and all button works fine and power button works when turn on / off, but the problem is when my phone is turned on, if i want to sleep the phone the power button works, but if i want to wake up phone with power button is not responding like a dead screen, when someone calling me i can answer but i don't see anything in my screen until i plugin the phone again in charger for few minutes..
if the power button is broken, why i can still shutdown my phone with it, i think it's software and not hardware related.
Can someone please help me ?? I spend days searching..
thanks in advance..

my power button does not turn on, or shut down my phone, the only way for me to turn off my phone is to take out my battery, but if i slide the keyboard down just the right way when the phone is off, it will turn on by itself. Other than that the phone works fine. Anybody have any ideas? is it possible to remap the power button to another button? Thanks.
Well, you have the "on" part figured out. There are free apps that can shut down the phone. Here's one:

Hi,
im having a weird issue on my Kaiser,i did search already in forum but didnt find an answer..maybe i didnt search good.
When i send phone to sleep pressing the Power button ,it works fine , no other button let it to wake up, the problem is when i put my SD card into the phone , pressing any keys let the screen wake up every time.
Any help or suggestion would be very appreciated.
Thanks.
LOL...Hardware failure,solved with a little thickness over the SD card,guess the time is come for change Phone.
I already fixed this, posting it in case it helps someone else (or I forget next time it happens).
Short version: If your touch won't turn on, check if any of the other buttons are stuck down.
My touch just wouldn't turn on. I tried pulling the battery. Tried all the possible startup buttons like going into the bootloader. Nothing.
It would charge through USB, but that was it. Power button seemed broken.
It was the volume slider. I've had issues with the volume randomly turning itself down. The volume slider is starting to die. And apparently if the volume switch is in just the wrong place, the phone will refuse to turn on. Moving the volume slider up and down then trying to turn it on again fixed it.
Maybe this will help someone else.
glad to hear it but next time you can just update your other thread

You could pull the battery out or wait for the battery to die. Just kidding, sometimes the phone turns on automatically when plugged in

I'm pretty sure he asked how to get the phone ON without the power button, not OFF.
And no I don't think there is unless you open up your phone and do some improvised modding in there. If your power button is messed up though you should probably just get a warranty replacement.
For a single time turning on - remove the battery, plug in USB charger, insert the battery. Try several times if didn't work the first time.
When in Android - you can install an OS that supports trackpad wake, to wake the phone up with trackpad instead of power button. Default OS does, too.
For proper power button functionality - there's nothing you can do but replace either the button or the whole phone.
Hmm thanks for that Jack, I never knew about the USB thing. Never tried it on an android anyways so I wouldn't have ever tried it.
As another suggestion, you could try remapping your keys as well. Someone posted recently in this forum about remapping his power button to the camera button to bypass a faulty button. I don't think it will let you turn on the phone with the camera(I'm not sure anyways, I haven't done this), but it will give you power button functionality throughout the OS of your choice.
I hate to bump this but mine just broke and my dumbass decided to pull the battery because it wouldn't go to sleep =\
I'm going to try to get another one tomorrow but I need a phone in the mean time
Thanks in advance
i have my phone for almost 7 months already. my phone went black and it wouldnt charge nor turn on. it wouldnt also turn on the LED blue light. been doing all the tips i can do. dont know if my phone is dead nor anything. cant feel no vibrate nor anything at all. i think my phone is dead dead. can you guys please help me. i got important phone calls and everything that i need to get it done. let me know asap. thanks!!!
If it doesn't charge, won't turn on, and doesn't vibrate, sounds like it's dead! Get in touch with Samsung about a replacement
Try a wireless charger
if you can charge it, can you get into download or recovery mode using button combinations?
Have you really tried *all* the possible 'tricks'? I remember the exact situation you just described happened to me a couple months ago. I left my phone charging overnight and when I woke the phone did not respond at all to any button smashing or resetting etc.. so what I did was, hold down the power button, Bixby button (not sure if that was necessary at all), and the volume *down* button all the same time (like you would press ctrl + alt + delete on a keyboard). I held it for 10+ seconds and at last my phone entered the recovery mode set-up which prompted me to press the volume down button once again to restart the phone. If you haven't tried this, give it a go!
