Hi, guys
I have a problem with my TB. The phone automatically power off about every two days, even if the battery is full. The screen is dark and when i press the power button, the screen cannot turn on and i had to long press the power button to reboot. I don't know whether it is a reboot or it was power off before i press the button.
Do you have such problem?
Thank you for your any suggestion.
Every instruction says to press Power+Vol Down and hold the Vol down until you see "Fastboot".
But its not true.
You power up with power button as normally and within 2-3 seconds just press the Vol Down key. It will show you the usual "Fastboot" text on your screen. There you can choose as usual with Vol Down key and select with Vol Up.
yeah ..that is true...
Yeah, but holding the volume down button ensures you don't miss that window, then have to go through another reboot cycle.
I think your point is kinda pointless really, but that's just my humble opinion!
i'm still going to press POWER+VOL DOWN together.
Just hold VOL-DOWN then press and release power. Release VOL-DOWN when fast boot appears. You don't have to hold power.
Actually, everything that has been said so far IS true... there is no wrong way to access the boot options whether you hold both the Power Button + Volume Down, Press Power Button then release + Press volume Down after 2-3 sec etc. all of these techniques will get you to the boot menu..
But I think, which is always dangerous, the reason they have said to hold both Power Button + Volume Down Button is because they avoided all the questions like;
when is the right time to press the Volume Down Button
Do I wait 2-3 sec after I press the Power Button
or Do I wait 2-3 sec after the Moto boot logo appears
Why can't I get this right
I tried searching for a way to get into the boot menu and it seems like I keep missing the 2-3 sec window period, can someone please explain to me the right way?
LoL
No need to reinvent something that has been working for everyone thus far.

i haven't experienced this but in case it happens, what if the phone enters a bootloop, how does someone go about turning the phone off (since you cant battery pull) and get into the bootloader/recovery??
hold power key for about 10 seconds or so.don't let go until phone turns off.
EDIT: Here you go Page 24. It says Note: If the phone hangs and the touchscreen does not respond, press and hold "power" for about 10 seconds to restart the phone.
EDIT 2: Also found this here
Symptom #2:
If the device cannot power on, and seems that it cannot be charged, it could be that the device is not in default operation mode. This can be caused when the “volume up key” was pressed while pressing the “power” key when device was last powered down. To power on and off the device normally, please be careful to not hold down any other hardware key while pressing the power key during power up operations.
How to fix:
1. Press & hold the power button for up to ~ 20 seconds. The capacitive keys (three keys at bottom of screen) should begin flashing. This indicates that a reset is imminent. Continue to hold power until they stop flashing.
2. Release the power key
3. Press the power key again for 1 second. Wait a few seconds and the device should then power on

Yeah I don't think that actually helps with a true bootloop. Restarting the device is just looping another boot. lol.
Try just holding down the vol-down button through one of the bootloops. Not sure that will work ... but worth a try.
how do i turn off the phone? it just keeps rebooting if i press the home button or power button
Hold down power and volume up until the phone vibrates three times.
phew. thanks a million seriously. i have 3 tutorials up and none of them mentioned it.
After a bad flash, I'm stuck at "htc One/beatsaudio" white screen, but unable to reboot in bootloader/recovery, even not power down...
Holding the power button a loooooooooooooong time makes softbuttons blinking, but nothing else happen...
Any idea?
Aaaaargh...finally solved...:victory:
I post "MY" solution, maybe it can help someone else (using the "search" functionality...)
Just press Power + Vol. Up + Vol. Down at the same time...:highfive:
The Other way: Press Power long time, until your phone gets off. After a second press and hold Vol. Down, press the power button and the phone starts in bootloader mode.

Thank you, but I was starting this thread because it wasn't possible anymore to use the normal way: Power button 10 sec. and Power + Vol. Down to get in bootloader mode...
