alright i have 2 a20s, the first one is the one that i use and it works, then i got another a20s broken for free, it seems like my fix was a temporary fix and not a permanent fix, the power button does not respond to user input and it presses itself and it shuts down the phone and then turns on again. is there a way to fix it that does not require replacing the power button?
No. Replace the button assembly...

Hi! My power button dosen't work, is there a way to fix it? Or maybye a siftware that can do the same thing like the power button. Thanks in Advance.
Hello ololizoz,
For a fix for the button, it depends on the problem itself. Maybe the plastic button isn't touching the eletronic button, for some reason. That would be a matter of replacement only. Otherwise, you/someone would need a small soldering equipment AND the right part to replace it.
If you don't mind using a software to power your screen on/off, try Homescreen++, I believe it can power the screen on and off.
Cheers
I looked for similar topic but couldn't find it,I can't use power button on my hd anymore,it got broken beacuse of pressing it very often during day to turn the screen on and off...I was wondering if there is an application to assign power button function to home key so when pressing it the screen turns off and on?
Hi, having the same problem, POWER BUTTON is defect/broken, it doesn't have a resistance when I push it in. I can still switch the device on and off, but I have to press the power button hard and the power button does not feel spring loaded any more.
Are there more people having this issue and is there anybody haveing it send for warranty repair already?
Mine is a German O2 device.
Thanks

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.

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?
As title states, restarted phone after updating and the power/volume buttons stopped working. I already requested an RMA but am curious as to anyone who has had a similar issue know of a way to solve/fix it. Only way I was able to get the phone out of the black screen was to do the O gesture to open the camera (Happy I had that enabled). I can currently use the phone but I am worried to let it die.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: I am more worried that if I were to get a replacement that this will just happen again and would then be stuck with it. Am I wrong to be worried?
I have just experienced this issue. Volume and power buttons don't work. What is going on?!?!? What did you end up doing sylv?
Same thing happened to me yesterday. It's a software issue, a simple reboot will fix it.
But how can you reboot without a button, you ask?
Go to settings -> Utilities-> Scheduled power on/off and set it to shutdown by itself. After it shuts down you'll be able to press the power button to turn it on.
Hi guys!
What's happening its that I bought the phone online, it's basically like brand new! No damaged on the buttons or a si gles minor scratch.
The problem is that the phone is always pressing the power button, sometimes I get in to a loop of restart sometimes I can use the phone normally and even sometimes I am using the phone and it stats to lock it self or open the camera (that usually happen when you double tap the power button) I already contact Essential but, by the way I bought it I doubt that they will do something, this happens without need of touching the phone. So I am sure that this it's not a defect on the button directly
I was thinking on root the device and by any way, disable the power button, I already try with button remaper or apps like that but, they don't work with the power just with the volume which sometimes it press it self as well.
Thanks in advance
