Running CleanRom 2.5, my phone previously presented me with a Power menu when holding down the power button. This allowed me to either Shutdown or Reboot. Now, whenever I hold the power button down, it reboots automatically without offering me any choices. What causes this and how can I fix it?

yep, unfortunately, installing tweaks like AutoBrightness Patch or Tether Patch breaks the power menu.

I am rooted and was just going to try and install the new radio when I noticed I can not get into the bootloader screen anymore. I power off then hold the Volume down and Power at the same time instead of the bootloader it is just powering back on. Any help is appreciated
Last where do you go to see the radio version that is currently loaded?
Thank, figured it out!
Radio version is in the Settings > About Phone on a Sense rom I believe, I'm on CM7 so it's a tiny bit different.
Hold vol- first, then press and hold the power button. I believe pressing power first then vol- doesn't "activate" the bootloader so to speak.
Make sure fast boot is off.

Or since your rooted get quick boot from market and just click on bootloader and it reboots in bootloader

My Power button quit working yesterday. I am trying to remap my volume button to wake the screen, and be the new power button. I can't seem to get it to work. I am rooted and I am using root explorer to edit the text.
I have found a number of apps that will wake my screen and some of them work okay, but I have to have lock screen enabled because of my corporate email, and once the screen locks, the apps don't work.
Also, I am worried that if my phone ever get's powered down (runs out of battery), I don't know how I would turn it back on.
Any advice???

I need a physical button. I'm rooted on Gingerbread and I want to update to ics but I can't figure out how to fastboot without a physical power button
There's a few apps in the store like 'quickboot' that'll allow you to boot into fastboot if rooted. Just remember for menus like recovery, you're likely to be stuck once you need to use the power button to select an option

Send it to service to get it repaired. It's pretty cheap for repairing a single button.
my power automatically reboots when i hold the power button
I'm rooted, and on UKB DNA and Cubed kernal
I don't think the rom or the kernal cause these, becuase this didn't happen when i first flashed the 2 above. I just started happening randomly
Think its normal

Pretty sure holding the power button is how you hard reset since you cant remove the battery. I don't know this for sure but I had the bug where the touchscreen was non responsive after phonecalls and the only way to restart it was to hold power. The capacitive buttons start flashing and then it reboots

Its different when the power menu should appear instead the phone hotboots

I'm on the same ROM, but stock kernel, I think it's a ROM issue.
Holding power button continuous is a hard reset. It simulates a battery pull.

My UKB was doing same thing. Def a ROM issue. Did you flash "[MOD] [Dec 5 2012] Team Blackout Sense 4+ Mods No Time/Date/Carrier Added"?

Not certain... but it's either the Transparent stauts/battery mod or the NFC removal mod. Now mine is restarting.
holding down power resets phone. all phones or tablets do it with no removable battery or reset button.

I think you're mistaken nev. Perhaps I should explain in more detail.
Just restored to UKB stock. As what should happen, holding down the power button pops the dialog asking whether to reboot, power off, reboot to recovery etc. I then flashed "[MOD] 100% Transparent Status bar w/ Battery mod". Once fully booted, I hit the power button to test the dialog... phone then began to just reboot once the power button was hit.
So, my testing says that is has to do with this particular mod.
Happened to me. It's the transparent status bar mod with battery interfering with the systemui

how many seconds? I know every device reboots if you hold it down for 10 seconds.

Well, if you combine this MOD with the UKB ROM, it reboots after 1-2 seconds of pushing the power button. Something's unhappy.
I had the same problem using UKB and transparent and batt mod. Reflash ukb and don't use the trans and batt mod = problem solved.

you can also take frameworkres.apk out of the .zip and then flash once youve already fixed the power menu. I dont take credit for this someone else made the suggestion in Nitsuj17's thread.
the only reason its rebooting on pressing power button is because a mod was flashed that included a framework-res in it
probably a battery mod
that ll will break apm
please take with what you flash in terms of mods...unless they say "works with ukb" or "built from ukb"...its hit or miss
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.
I was attempting to flash over a new ROM. The sense 5.5 that just released. using the fastboot/hboot wasn't working so I tried to install from TWRP recovery, still not working. I then wiped my phone and did a factory reset, including the ROM wipe on TWRP. It booted up without an OS and now I can only get the boot screen to appear but the phone won't shut off. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!
Hold the power button down until the screen turns off, then immediately hold the volume down button until it boots back into hboot. (You don't have to keep holding the power button after the screen turns off) other than that I have no idea what your post is about or what you were trying to do.

I've had some issues trying to flash new 4.3 roms on new TWRP, install fails after few seconds, screen goes dark, then HTC screen w red dev text comes up, have to hold power button to restart into bootloader/recovery. Seems to help to reboot recovery after wiping and before flashing the rom for me
