Ahoi;
yesterday a huge thunderstorm soaked my clothes und apparantly went into my S2s power button too, since it's not working anymore.
I am now using the home button to put the phone into deepsleep, but as far as I know there is no way to use the home button to boot the phone.
How can I reboot my phone for example after an SOD? I am not sure if my S2 boots as usb device when plugging it to some PC. Could someone plz check that for me ?
No I doesnt work .. only way to fix it is to buy a new power button

As always I should have been patient! After some WD40, hot temperatures and TIME my Power button is working again!
Huray! S2 is like Sony Xperia Z; in a troublesome way. Sometimes ^^ I guess I was lucky.
Happy flashing

Hello,
I have a Galaxy s2 but when i grab my phone it was off, but i didn't shutdown my phone
when i press the power button it do nothing. It happens when i'm sleeping so i don't what the reason is.
i can't put it in recovery or download modus because it won't startup.
I want to know the reason for this and i don't like to send it back because i'm going to miss my phone.
have you tryed using a download jig?
Have you tried charging the phone ///

I'm with usb jig guy... Might have had a power surge during charging though.

Turn off your phone either by taking otu hte battery or by pressing power button for like 7-8 seconds.
Then press Volume Down + Home + Power button, to boot into downlaod mode.
You have to press those three buttons not two buttons.
Hi guys,
I've installed CM7 following the tutorial given on Touchpad Development forum.
Everything was working quite good (gapps, etc.) and I've been able to use CM during hours.
But since this afternoon, I'm not again able to turn my Touchpad on.
I've tried :
- power
- hold power
- hold power + home button
- hold power + home button + volume up
And nothing has worked.
Is there a physical way for resetting the device ?
Have you got any idea ?
I feel so unhappy because of this.
Thanks in advance for your help or ideas !
well... the Touchpad just turned ion !
Thanks God...
But I still don't know why I was unable to turn it on during hours... strange strange strange ! It just booted on with 40% of battery.
Let me guess. It was in a touchstone?

Mine is doing the same thing right now. Been using CM since this morning, set it down for a hour now and it wont turn on. I didnt even turn it off, battery was fine too.
edit...found a thread at rootzwiki and its easy fix. Hold Poer and Home for 15 seconds or so and it will fire right up!!!
http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?7913-SOLVED-Touchpad-shut-off-and-I-can-t-get-it-back-on!
From what I can tell the touchstone does not work with android. If the unit freezes hold home and power 15 sec

Indeed, it was !
But I already said that power+home didn't worked for me.

That didnt work it seems totally dead but i have read a lot about it online. Will a download jig work?
Thanks for your help matey
I don't know what's that lol. Sorry but I can't help you with it. Given that you're stock and unrooted, you might wanna send it to Samsung to fix it.

No worrys i think ill change the battery or something haha. Iv got no warranty. A downliad jig forces your device in to download mode to be used with Odin lol
If you find anything else let me know matey i appreciate your help
All depends on what the "deadness " is......
Could be dead dead, or could be screen dead in which case stuff is happening but you can't see anything happening.
If you have already had device connected to a computer that has the appropriate drivers installed (talking windows here) open device manager on the computer then connect the tab and see what, if anything happens and might be detected... That would show tab is working but you cannot see it... If nothing happens immediately once it's plugged in, take a fairly long press on power button and see if anything is detected then. A long press on power button (15 sec+) would put tab in apx mode which actually shows nothing on screen but again device manager would show it (this is used for nv flash). At least this way you'll know if it's dead dead or "just" something else...
Btw eushaun99 is a great and helpful dude here and has my respect but I think he gave you a bum steer via a typo with his button pressing...I think he meant press power button and volume down for boatloader, not "power and power" as he wrote, so that is worth a try also... Am I ok with that eushaun99?

Thanks, you are also a very helpful person on the Q&A section and definitely have my respect as well. Unfortunately, I can't help this guy so it would be very kind of you to take over from here.
You're right, its volume down, not power down. Oops

I have same issue too. My GT7500 starts only if I warm it till >45°C using a hairdryer or putting it under the sun (here in Italy very hot). But it's only for a normal boot, not in case of reboot when it goes all fine.

That sounds to me like the battery is tired, very tired and needs some help to produce current required, or a faulty connection somewhere. Once the tab is running the whole unit would tend to self heat so will reboot ok. Most fails are the opposite and are heating faults which is why someone came up with freezing sprays to track down which circuit comes back to life when cooled. Have you noticed any reduction of time that battery lasts between charges ?
Ciao

No, it didn't change. This thing lasts since november and it's very annoying 'cause I have to pay much attention to not shut my tab off, elseway I have to get the hairdryer again and so on...
Inviato dal mio GT-P7500 usando Tapatalk 4
What does it do/not do when it doesn't start? Blank screen? Nothing? Bootloop? Freezes?
sent from my still superb Google I/O 7510 (xda hd)
Nothing at all. I keep the power button while warming the tab and when it decides it's enough it starts with the normal boot screen (samsung galaxy tab etc.)

Brilliant!! That's a far quicker way than normal where people drain the battery by taping down the power button to drain battery to achieve reset.... :highfive:

Need some help over here.
My phone is updated to the newer version of android. It is no rooted, and i have never tried so.
My phone doesn't responde to the power button. (so I can't open it).
I tried to restart while holding the power button + vol down button,
the only responce is a roar from the vibrator.
I can't charge it (the red lamp doesn't light).
Althought I can feel that is reletavilly hot
What should I do?

Try a different plug point.. are you using the original charger ???
This usually happens if you are using a different charger with Incompatible voltage..
Or could be something else also which i am not sure though ...Was just trying to help you..Sorry if i couldnt.. :highfive:
Nope, this not helps.
I am feeling that everyconthing has wiped from the phone.
I do not know why.
The phone is in stock condition.
Any other advice?
This may seem stupid but try to call it from another phone, there is a "small tiny" chance that you hear it ring or beep on the other phone.
The reason I am telling you this is the "vibration" you feel with no display. There might be an issue with your screen. Give it a try.
If it's not rooted then you have your warranty , so call customer service and give your phone in if the problem persists with no solution.
Good luck

tried it , didnt work
It happened to me to once because of Vindicator Kernel.
Plug in the USB cable to computer and connect it to phone.
Press and hold Volume Down+Home+Power Button then you will get download mode.
Then flash stock ROM back.
(You have to charge your phone for 30 minutes before you do this)
