Screen unresponsive to power button? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Anyone experience where their phone refuses to turn on at times. The power button gerlnerates no response until pressed 5-10 times. I don't think its the power button itself because at anytime, holding the power button still results in the capative buttons flashing. Anyone know what may be cause the unresponsiveness and how I can fix it or prevent it from happening?

Power Button

My power button has a problem. When i press it once it will turn on and off again at the same time. I had to press ot several times for it to stay on..
Another thing is when im holding it for reboot or shutting down. It turns off again and again and again..
Is it hardware or a software problem..
Help me please..

I have the same problem on every rom.
So I guess it's hardware related.
when I want to shutdown or reboot I hold down the power button (don't release it) and select the shutdown option

Power Button Failure?

So, for the past few days, I've had to push the power button three times to turn the screen on. Yesterday it completely stopped working, and had to use a Viper tweak to use volume buttons as power button. Late last night it has been working so-so. Aby ideas?

This is more of a workaround than a fix, but MeanBean has the option to use the camera button to turn the screen on, to hold the home button to load the advanced power menu, and to hold the back button to turn the screen off. You can get by pretty well without ever using the actual power button.

Weird screen bug/defect?

Hello everyone I'm experiencing a very strange issue. Whenever I press towards the top center of the screen sometimes my screen goes black as if I hit the power key and then when I press the home button it doesn't turn back on usually I have to press the power button once then one more time to get the screen to get back on. You have to squeeze or press down the screen firmly a little hard I'll be asleep its not normal to do that but regardless doing that makes my phone turn off and then not turn back on until I press the power key twice. The screen appears to be off and all black but the soft keys vibrate as if thescreen was on and use. Does anyone else have this type of problem when pressing down on the screen? Or has anyone else experienced this some other way and has some type of solution or should I exchange?

I don't have that issue I, only have like many users that little lag when waking the screen. The problem your describing sounds very abnormal. I would def. Check out an exchange option if you have it bro.

How Do I Soft Reset?

I asked this in another forum, but haven't been able to resolve the issue. With other phones, holding down the power button and volume down rocker at the same time will force a reboot. When I do that with the Z2, I get a screenshot, but no reset. Someone suggested just holding the power button, but when I do that, all I get are the choices "Power Off", "Airplane Mode" and "Take a Screenshot". Can someone explain how I do a soft reset with the Z2?
Hold down the power button and volume up button until it vibrates 3 times or take the USB flap off and hold the red button

Thanks for the info! I wasn't even aware of the red button.
