[Q] power button not working! need to un-root. - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

okay guys I need your help here, my power button is not working at all i can not turn screen off or on and i can not power off so i called up verizon they are sending me out a new phone and i have to send back old one only thing is i forgot no warranty once i am rooted not a big deal i will just go back to stock.......so i download (Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.12.605.6_Radio_1.16.00.0223r_N V_8k_1.41_9k_1.64_release) rename it put it on sd card do adb reboot bootloader......now this is were i need the help it is on fastboot i push the volume button down to go to bootloader but i need to hit the power button and its not working so now i am lost is there another way to bootloader or another way for me to do this with out needing the power button???

Boot and before the screen turns off disable fastboot in development.
Then adb reboot bootloader

thanks I had fast boot turned off and i double checked, side note it was under power not development. anyhow still no luck i checked it then unchecked it to be on safe side but i still do adb reboot bootloader with the file on root of sd card and its still in fastboot usb.......now that i think of it i guess i should have put that in post. anyhow it says hit power key to select item but i cant push power key

Out of curiousity, with fastboot disabled does typing "reboot bootloader" in terminal on the phone while the phone is NOT plugged into your computer still load fastboot?

good idea, I dont know....but i am going to find out right now.

that was a good idea i did not think of it but it did not work still in fastboot usb and i did take off usb before i did it

is there anyway to push the files with just adb

i got it to work!!! i used a small sewing needle and pushed the power button with that lol

I never got the other methods to work, but this always worked for me. Pull battery, put back in. do not touch the power key. Hold the up and down volume key, then plug in the usb that is already connected to the computer.

No sir, you should be just fine, try to reflash back to stock using odin, pull the battery remove the sim and sd card, and then go into downloader mode, and try again.

Keep trying
Try enter "downloading mode" with the sd card in the phone(after many attempts it worked for me), there is a thread in this forum about how to enter "downloading mode" and flash the phone.
still cant get out of the android system recovery mode.. ive tried holding buttons down while turning the phone on and off and theres nothng happening. still cant use the power button as the ok.
i got the same problem i cant use any button as ok
is there a way to get the ok button, or what i can do to get over this problem
thanks in advance
Let me know if these steps help:
Here is a couple of methods to get into download mode. Once you get to
download mode, follow the directions in second part of my post...
First Method
1) Pull the battery, sim card, and sd card.
2) Reinsert battery but do not press any buttons.
3) Plug into usb that is connected to your computer. If something shows up
on the screen (charging logo) then you should be golden.
4) Hold the vol up, vol down, and power until the screen comes on,
immediately release the power button but not the other two. Hopefully it
will boot into download mode and than you can use Odin to get back to stock.
Second Method
1) Another method that seems to work for some people is to pull the battery,
sim, sd card.
2) Reinsert battery and hold both volume buttons but do not press power
button.
3) Then plug in usb. The phone should boot into download.
Third Method
1) You will need the samsung ADB drivers installed for your phone and ADB.
Samsung Drivers for 32 bit Windows: http://files.androidspin.com/downlo...=SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86.exe
Samsung Drivers for 64 bit Windows: http://files.androidspin.com/downlo...ung/vibrant/&file=usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64.zip
2) Remove sim card and sd-card. Remove the battery.
3) Hold buttons vol up, vol down, and power.
4) While holding down those 3 buttons put the battery back in and keep
holding all 3 buttons until the vibrant disappears and reappears. Once it
reappears, release all 3 buttons.
5) Now connect your phone to your pc via USB cable.
6) Open a cmd prompt and navigate to the folder with ADB and type "ADB
REBOOT DOWNLOAD" caps are not necessary.
7) Your phone will reboot into the download
How to get back to stock once in Download Mode:
Download the files in the linked thread and follow the directions there or
the ones in my post below.
Odin and Files Needed Available Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475
1) Open Odin and verify that one of the Com ports shows a device connected.
If it doesn't try using a different usb port.
2) Load the .pit and pda files. It should be pretty obvious how to do that
once you are in Odin.
3) Make sure that the option to partition is unchecked. The other two
options should be checked.
4) Hit start and wait.
5) Your phone will restart when Odin is done and you will be good to go.
Seems to be the same issue
I just tried upgrading to 2.2 using Odin and this seems to be the same problem. It seems that every solution starts with, "Enter Into Download Mode..." but no method seems to work.
I wouldn't say the phone is "bricked" as when it is plugged into a computer it will install the drivers and Odin sees it, but I can't get it into anything but recovery mode.
The buttons seem to be strangely mapped, the up and down buttons are reversed and the power button doesn't seem to be working as the "Ok" button. The menu toggles the recovery screen and the <!> graphic with the Android. Anyone figured out how to solve this? In the meantime I will continue attempting to get into download moad.
Hi, I have the same exact problem. Stuck in system recovery. Volume buttons reversed. Power button does nothing. Cannot get into download mode. Please Help
what happened?
I just got the same issue :S
the volumes buttons are wrong and the power (OK) button is not working on system recovery mode...
any help?

Folks, any update regarding this problem. I got very same problem, and could not find a solution yet.
hints?
I have the same problem also. I got into the problem by following a thread down grading to 2e version from 3e version. I've tried lots of things including going back to stock--or what I think is stock. I now have the 3e version again but when I bring up recovery mode the up/down buttons are backwards and the ok (power) key doesn't work.
Suggestions? HELP?
We can get into root console and manually tweak files if that will help.
UPDATE----SOLUTION
I got this working by reloading the stock t-mobile kernel from http androidspin.com/2010/08/09/how-to-restore-or-recover-your-samsung-vibrant/. This link provided at that site is single file so just use the pda and pit boxes in odin. In desperation I selected re-partion and Phone bootloader update.
I was unable to get into the recovery console with hitting any keys but adb did the trick. Volumn-up and power gets into the flash download
Finally Fixed it
I finally was able to get the phone into download mode by holding down the volume up key, the search key and the power key.
It seems the key mapping was just messed up.
After it entered download mode I followed the guide on androidspin /2010/08/09/ how-to-restore-or-recover-your-samsung-vibrant (add the .com to androidspin, forum won't let me post links yet)
Hi How did you hold the search key. It does not light up till the vibrant shows on screen. Can you please explain how to managed to hold vol up, power and search together? thanks
Sivaavis its only a 3-button combo, not 4. Why u holding down search? Its up,down volume and power and then when the vibrant logo shows u let go of power.

If you are in recovery mode just go into adb and type in:
adb reboot download
You should be in download mode

Stuck in recovery "No home Button"

SO i installed android on my friends touchpad. Every went off without a hitch. I rebooted into recovery to flash a new rom and without thinking, i forgot that His home button isnt working. SO now im in recovery and i cant get out. I can only move up and down. The power button only goes back so i cant use it to choose "reboot"
ANy suggestion on getting this thing out of recovery?
Tama
wait for the battery to die?
Plug it into ur PC .. and do adb shell reboot
Sent from my Touchpad using xda premium
I just let the battery die on it. Got it back on.
Its kind if useless at some points. Like i cant use the dual boot option to pick an OS cause i cant press enter.
If almost the power button was set as an enter button then we would be in business.
Thanks for the tip guys.
PS: I couldnt use the ADB command as it wouldnt pick up the device when i inquired for devices.

Bootloader mode without opening cover

I never liked opening my cover because it felt like it would get looser, so I saw this trick to get into bootloader mode (required to unlock or flash RUUs, etc) even on a total stock ROM (unrooted and locked).
1. make sure you have all the appropriate drivers and adb/fastboot files
2. turn on usb debug mode and connect usb cable to computer
3. then on the windows command prompt, type:
adb shell reboot bootloader
and there you go!

It is a lot easier to just use QuickBoot...
Push a button on the phone and you can Reboot, Boot to Recovery, Boot to bootloader, power off or hot boot. No battery pull, removing the cover or using a computer needed.
For a rooted phone of course. It is one of the first apps I load after rooting.
...I just hold power button and wait for the menu, then select Restart and then you can choose Recovery, Bootloader, Hot Restart, etc.

Almost every ROM I've used has it installed by default now apparently. Which is a good thing!
You don't even need to shell. Just adb reboot bootloader. I almost always do it that way because I push the boot.img in fastboot, so I'm plugged in anyway.
You don't need to take the back off. You don't need to hook it to a computer. You don't need to install a special app.
Simply power off, then hold Volume Down when powering back up.
Just make sure Settings/Power/Fast Boot is turned off before you do.

I like having fastboot on, so I use restart from the menu (it is always a full restart, not just shell) and then hold power and volume down when the button back lights go out. The lights off mean its starting to load the boot loader.
Works every time.

[Q] Neutab N7 tablet bootloader/fastboot?

I have a fairly generic Chinese tablet, a Neutab N7 (not a Nexus 7), but I have no idea how to enter the bootloader/fastboot mode.
Using adb, "adb reboot bootloader" or "adb reboot-bootloader" just makes it reboot normally.
From a shell, doing "su reboot bootloader" also reboots normally.
I tried Quick Boot from Google Play which has an option to reboot into the bootloader, but it also just ends up rebooting normally.
While powered off, I tried holding power and volume up, power and volume down, and power and both volume up and down, but they all just boot normally.
Doing "adb reboot recovery" does boot me into recovery mode, but the menu doesn't have a bootloader/fastboot option.
Does anyone have any idea how to enter the bootloader/fastboot mode for this tablet? Any help would be appreciated.

Having been looking for this information myself i'm sharing real quick here what i've found. Scouring the net all over i've found NOTHING specific for these Chinese tablets but after finally getting on the scent of VROOT I downloaded and tried iROOT essentially a one-click rooter the .APK **DID NOT WORK** but the PC version **DID** can be found by googling iroot or vroot.
RE: bootloader, i've still found no way or any good info on entering the bootloader AFAIK this is locked and may not be possible without some good hard hacking on the firmware, I DO KNOW that if you try entering the "bootloader" with a reboot manager on the device u will find yourself at the "NeuTab" welcome screen and stuck. Fortunately at least in my experience, letting the tablet battery run down low you can boot back into it and root condition is still good.
Hope this helps somewhat I know its an old post but a lot of people have been looking for this info have yet to post on authors site confirming that the NeuTab also works with his software.
peace.
VE3UND
BTW I forgot to mention the site and the software (ALTHOUGH IT STATES OTHERWISE) is in Chinese. A leap of faith needed there I know but i confirm this method works. l8z
BTW^2 ALSO the android version was KitKat as received from the mfg, also have been told that Jellybean will install on the tablet after rooting and maybe is now included with device but don't quote me on that.
all in all a really nice tab for the price, especially now we have root biggest missing option: GPS but you can tether to another device with gps if you need to. Also no built in USB HOST MODE. //out
I've got the NeuTab N10 and can't get ADB to see it at all. How did you get ADB to work with your N7, were you able to find NeuTab ADB drivers somewhere?
So i recently came across this tablet in my stuff... something i picked up for the wife a few years back.
I also came across this website.... http://neutab.com/info-detail.php?InfoId=11
It has all the tools and programs that the company uses. includes all files for development of their entire line of tablets.
Thought this may be useful. just click on the link that says pheonixtools.zip and it will take you to a back end file server... This tablet is about as open sourced as it gets... so... this leads me to ask a question i have been struggling with for the last 2 years of being a member on this website...
can anyone... please... help me develop my first recovery and custom rom for this tablet? I just have never done it all the way... i have set up a couple things here and there... figured out how to strip the stock recovery and boot... but never got further than that.
Thanks for the help.
• Unzip phoenix tool.zip you just downloaded; (to open a .zip file, download WinRAR)
• In the folder of phoenix tool you just unzipped, depending on your system specs, select "drvinstaller_X64", "drvinstaller_x86" or "drvinstaller_IA64" to install tablet driver; Or you can run all three driver installer and at least one will work;
• Run "PhoenixSuit.exe", select "firmware" tab;
• Click on "Image" button, choose the firmware you just downloaded;
• Turn your tablet completely off (by press and hold power button for 20 seconds), press and hold "volume -" button, connect tablet to computer via usb cable, keep volume button held, press power button 10 times repeatedly;
• The phoenix tool should recognize the tablet. On pop-up dialog window, select if you want to format and wipe out everything on your tablet;
• The phoenix tool will start flash the firmware to the tablet. Wait till it is done;
• When upgrade is finished, disconnect your tablet from computer, press and hold power button for 10 seconds to quit upgrade mode. then press and hold power button for 2-4 seconds to turn tablet on;
Congratulations! Your tablet is now refreshed.
Ok so I have a NueTab Air 7 Android and I have talked toto their customer support which did neurologist absolutely no good. I have been trying to hard reset my tablet and do a factory reset by holding down the volume up and down keys and the power keys until it gives me the option of rebooting. However, there is no option for a factory reset. Only a Recovery mode, Fastboot mode, and Normal mode. I tired the Normal and Recovery an both sent me back to enter password that I can't rremember, which isthe why I'm resetting it lol. Finally I chose the Fastboot option and now it is stuck on that option and has been for almost an hour. It willwas not let me power off, try to hard reset, it is literally stuck. And it is a hundred percent charged. I do jot hav the optiontime to connectbe the tablet to acall Windows computer at this timetime, as the forums I have read say can possibly fix the issue. And what a surprise the customer service phone number for this specific tablet does not know how to fix it!!!!! Not surprised at all. If anyone at allthe has any ideas or knows what to do or howsomething to fix it please help meme. I'm very frustrated to say thethat least and in desperate need of help. Anything would be immensely appreciated. ~Melissa

I would love to root this tablet purely because it's my daughter's and some of the games she likes has some real funky permissions That they want! A custom rom would be nice but I will be satisfied with being able to revoke some of the permissions that the apps want to have access to.

I have yet to be able to download the zip or the firmware software. i got root with kingo pc version but that's pretty much it and I can't change the route manager because once I delete that then I don't have root anymore and can't add another one. Also I have yet to been able to get into or see download mode on this either. It just stays on the screen with the name on it and that's pretty much it. no bootloader unlock either
