I am stock rooted and would like to my phone not to soft reset when the power button is held down. I still want it to turn on and off the screen but nothing else.... Can any one do that????

You kind of need that if S**T hits the fan with a non removable battery.

Go to Settings>Power>Uncheck fastboot. If you press power button screen will turn off/on. If you hold down few seconds you'll get powerdown option. If you hold down approximately 10 seconds it will do a reset ("similar" to battery pull-reboot).

i think we should find out if a dev can change it to Vol up + Power to make it reboot instead of holding down the power button. thats how my xoom gets rebooted
To hard reset a frozen EVO lte you have to hold the power button and volume down...
I don't want that to change.... What I want is for the phone not reset if just the power button is held down for 10sec.

How long are you holding it? Make sure you hold power volume down at the same exact time.

Do a battery pull then out battery back in. Then hold down the volume button and keep it down
press the power button several times that's what works for mine any way.

some times when im plugged into the wall or ubs/computer it doesnt go
If you have the fast power on option checked in power settings I think that prevents you from booting into hboot unless you do a battery pull.
How come when I power off and turn phone back on(no battery pull) and hold vol. Down, the phone boots instantly? If I turn the phone off and just press power and let it boot it takes about a minute to boot.

With vol down? Are u booting into the bootloader?

This happens to me on occasion just because im impatient. When u power off the phone even though the led light and screen goes blank it takes a minute to fully power off on its own without battery pulls or fastboot checked off. If you try to volume down power before it fully shuts down then thats when it boots back instantly. The reason is the phone hasn't fully powered off.
So my Xperia S just now completely froze up while playing 9mm.
Touchscreen and hardware buttons are all unresponsive, holding down the power button does nothing and since my battery is near full and my brightness maxed I'm worried about damaging the screen by just letting it run out of juice. Strangely the game is still running, just nothing works.
I looked for a physical reset button but its nowhere to be found..
How can I reset my phone?
Edit: Allright so after about 20 minutes or so the phone magically became responsive again and is functioning normally for as far as I can tell.
Nevertheless, I'd still like to know how to reset it should a need for it arise in the future.
Try this:
hold standby and volume up for five seconds and the phone will reboot.

It Works!!
Thank you!
Press on standby button and volume up button at the same time really works to reset the phone!! Cool~~!
Worked fine with me...
Thx for the post and the helpful answers.
It worked well with my SXS.
Pressing the button combination actually turns off the phone; you then can turn it on/ reboot it normally.
Thx a lot, M.

When my phone freezes (it happens more than once after the last firmware upgrade) I presso power button and volume up to reboot.
Pressing both volume buttons together is a BAD idea!

According to Sony, holding the vol up and down buttons together and pressing power until you get 3 vibes is the same as removing the battery.
Usually it takes about 10 secs first a single vibe and then about 5 secs later 3 vibes, but under some circumstances it can take up to 20 seconds on my phone at least.

Have need help , please help me, I can't reset my phone .
hey guys i got a EVO 4g LTE, was on JellyBean. I followed the root/recovery/bootloader unlock thread. did everything fine, and everything was ok. then i did a nandroid back up, wiped everyting and installed a MeanROM-ICS-v65-jewel-ltevo rom on it. now it wont turn on! wont even boot into recovery. When i hold the power button it only flashes the bottom 3 key (back power and double square) same thing when i do power and vol down, only flashes the 3 key and thats it. Am i screwed?
If you have lights then you are not bricked. Hold the power button down for 30 seconds until they stop blinking before releasing power press and hold volume down. I then release power continue holding volume down and you should get into bootloader

I rooted and flashed custom ROM to my HTC Jetstream. I installed the custom ROM via CWM by Doomlord. When my device went to reboot it tried booting once then the screen went black. The power is turned on. The orange light comes on by the power button. Then goes off. It is fully charged. And when I hit the power button the LED light flashes.
press and hold for 30 seconds or so.
if that won't do, hold vol down and power 2gether
