I have a problem with my i9100 . My power button is totally broken.
I need a kernel that automatically turn on my terminal when I connect the charger.
Anybody know any kernel to do this function?
Thanks
there is no kernal that can do that. buy a new power switch and connect it. it a very procedure.
Look for the tutorial to replace the screen, the method is similiar to replace the power switch.

Thanks... but the problem is one pin of the power button in the motherboard. I can not replace the button...
haha what I swear people are getting stupider. there is no kernel that can do that and for hardware problems the only person that going to be able to fix them is you.

hey guys, im trying to get a vibrant and found this guy who has a mint condition vibrant but the touch sensitive buttons dont work, the screen is perfectly working but the bottom buttons wont register the touch... some time they do but most of the time they dont... there is no water damage and he says that the phone has not been dropped so, wtf happened here? any software related thing going on here?
ill buy it if there is any way to fix it, maybe some of you have experienced this issue and have an answer?? thanks and please give me some advice
I've returned 2 vibrates because of the home button being haywire. From everything I've heard also, I'd advise you not to get the phone from this guy, its a hardware malfunction.

shyt man i have the same issue on mahh vibrant....ive tryy everythinq i cann and i couldnt get it working....
Someone it depends on the rom yiu install too. I had that problem when I bought mine from a guy at craigslist.. But when I installed axura or other rom, the home button worked flawlessly. I don't totaly agree that its "hardware issue" I think its on the software "roms"

Sounds like a kernel issue.
What rom/kernel you using?
PS. For future help topics you should give the basic info about your setup like device, kernel , rom etc as it saves people then having to ask you and waste time.

Maybe power button is making a short circuit. If it gets heated right next to the rear camera pull the battery and send it to Service center.
So, as the title says hardware problem and there are few things I want to know about. Have anyone got the problem about power button position on the inside is lower than the volume buttons? My bro and me got the same XU and never have problem except this one. My Xperia U has the lowest power button than my brother. If that's my phone's factory fault, can I repair it by disassemble it and settling the buttons back? I got no problem but I have to press hard for power button and there are no pressable home button to wake my device up. My problem is normal or not? Please answer me dear bros. Thanks.

If you have a guarantee, I'd recommend you take it to the store since its a factory problem. If you don't have a guarantee, there's some apps which let you use the volume buttons to turn the screen on. I don't know the names since I've never used one but I've seen it in here so you can use the search bar to look for them

You're welcome! Let me know how it goes
BTW, if you do have a guarantee, take your brother's phone too so you can show them there's a difference

They told me to wait for changing my handset dear bro. I'm waiting. Everything's went so bad. They told me that it wouldn't gets so wrong. But it's definitely sure that I have very stupid power button. You're right bro. I should have brought my brother handset, too. Now I'm in anxiety because it's only one week old. Now, I press so hard the power button and it annoys me. Anyway, I thank you so much for helping me out. Now I'll have to wait for answer.

My SGH-I777 devices was doing fine with CM10 nightlies running but it suddenly stopped working. I tried every possible solution like replacing battery, charger, volume down+power button but it's just not responding anymore. If I left it on charge it just heats up. So when I search about these scenarios the only information I get is phone is dead. I tried calling AT&T and of course it was out of warrenty for them. Samsung says send to us and will have a look at it with the hold on credit card for $70 until they rectify real issue.
So my question is what are the possible solutions if there are any? Is it worth to spend $70 and send phone to Samsung? What can be done with dead device is there any market for it? Any place in US who can look at it cheaper than Samsung? Or wait for Note 3 and recycle this phone?
Any suggestions will help. Thanks in advance!!
Ask these guys they know it all. Email them or call explain your situation go from there.

No luck tried that as well.. without battery also it won't power up
Hi everyone, hoping for some help.
My galaxy s2 wont power on at all.... I have tried plugging USB into the PC and pressing Vol Up but nothing - this happened after replacing the USB charge port. The power flex cable accidentally ripped off.
I plug it into my laptop and it starts installing the driver but then fails. Anyone experienced this before?
Detach battery, leave it in 5 minute and attach again , power on. I face this problem before(but the cause is not same to you ) and my phone power on after i do those steps. Hope your phone will work again.
Or you could wait for KeithHarris39 who knows what he's talking about with this stuff to read your thread (he's posted to Q&A in the last hour or two, so he's probably around somewhere) & he'll actually give you some idea of what might have gone wrong/what you can do about it.

something worth ur interest...
If you are describing the flex cable that is/was attached to the USB charger board.....then the 'inadvertent detachment' is likely the cause of your issues......
First, the damage that *has* taken place is likely to have caused a lack of charge reaching the battery....which is likely the reason the phone won't boot....dead battery and no way to charge it.
Second, it's likely the PC isn't installing the drivers as the damage caused is probably stopping the PC recognising the phone for what it is.....we all know PC's are dumb, if they're not told exactly how to do something, they just sit there scratching their metaphorical heads....lol
Repairing this part is *highly unlikely* to succeed........the only option....get another replacement.... the only saving grace......they're not that expensive......

I very much doubt you have anything to say to me in PM that would be 'worth my interest'. However, if you still believe that to be the case, this thread is as good a place as any to say it.

Thankyou for the offer, that's very kind of you to think of me that way & I do appreciate it But no, I'd rather not, thanks.
Why not ? You might be a gambling guru for all we know

Thought as much but only just got back on here. Thanks for your time. Already ordered the bits that all arrived today ( except I missed the bloody posty )
So I will let you know how my soldering skills hold up after years of being dormant! The board itself seems fine... just kicking myself for giving it that little pull and forgetting that the power button is stuck on. Doh!! The phone is my old one and now belongs to the Mrs... wasn't too happy with me lol. So much so, and I'm sorry to say she switched to the dark side.. iPhone.
Now I think I'll see what ROMs are good for the s4... easy rooted it from day one but now I feel ready for a change. First android I've never completely changed
