Hi everyone,
The power button of my SGS2 is not working correctly, when I pressed it, the phone is restarted instead of show the phone options (power off, reboot, profile, airplane mode, etc) What's wrong? Also I've checked/unchecked the Power button instantly lock option in Lock Screen section.
Rooted phone, with ICS 4.0.4
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm new to xda, I was on CM10.1 nightly build 29th Dec, and I was just checking the dev options to see what was what. When I changed
the 'Simulate Secondary Display' settings the phone just froze. It's perfectly fine, everythings there, it's just that when I boot it, it shows the boot logo and when its about to show the home screen it freezes. I know its not bricked, and I know all I have to do is change the Dev Options. Could
someone plz tell me how? I actually have important messages and pictures that I don't want to lose.
Thanks in advance

Flash a different rom like stock based custom rom and install cm10.1 again if you want to
Thankfully I had a fairly recent Titanium Backup so I only lost a small amount of data + time. I hope you manage to find a solution as you said you have important messages and all.
Wiping cache doesn't help. I'm still stuck. :crying:
--- Edited ---
My itchy hand touch that setting as well. Stuck at CM10.1 boot screen.
Solution: Just boot into recovery, wipe cache and reboot. Done and everything working as usual.
Same question
I wiped cache and davkit cache in recovery but no luck
I would like to know the function of this option

1. use Safe mode. (I just pressed all button except power button, and it booted.)
2. disable Simulate Secondary Display.
3. reboot
(side effect : all widgets will be disappeared)

wow, it works, thank u so much! and for the first time I realise that android has a safe mode just like my windows ! feel shame for my poor knowledge
I couldn't enter safe mode. Presing Vol up+ Vol down should enter safe mode?

Yes. I just found this thread because i also locked my S2 activating "second display" and looked for a way to boot up in safe mode.
1. Turn off your phone by long pressing the Power button.
2. Press Up/Down Volume buttons (yes, both) and Power button at the same time.
3. Keep pressing all 3 buttons until boot-up image appears.
4. Release Power button while still pressing volume buttons (not sure if this is mandatory, but worked on my phone)
5. Phone will boot-up with "Safe-mode" badge in the lower-left corner of your screen.
Now go to Settings-Developer options and disable Second Display. After that, just reboot and you should be fine.

confirmed dirty flash does NOT work
confirmed flash 10.1 nonofficial then re flash DOES work
anybody try a restore?? seemed to work for me except i only had an ancient one... plus the safe mode trick seems better unless you just made a backup
im on rezound infected 2.2 JB 4.2.2 by the way and safe mode didn't seem to work but i just read the part where you hold volume buttons after letting go of the power button. so that might work for rezounds still

Thank you
Thank you very much, you saved my life!

Seems not to work on HTC Desire Z. In a 3 seconds after holding volume buttons and power button, LED lights up in green and remains in this state. Using Jelly Baby 1.5.0.
Any other way?
EDIT: I found one. Turn on the phone and when on HTC logo, hold S button on QWERTY keyboard until home screen show up.

different phone, different method. the above applies to i9100.
glad you found a way for your HTC.
I wasn't able to boot into safe mode for some reason (HTC Evo with non-stock ROM). My solution was to use adb to edit the settings sqlite database.
Here is the guide I found: blog.jbit.net/2013/01/android-settings-reset-using-adb.html

Plzzzzzzz guys help me to safely Restore my factory settings back
(And sry to make a new thread for dis probs, but its really urgent)
Hey,
Have you tried this
Pattern lock
Use power button
The ENTER is triggered by power button on the right side
And up/down by volume keys
Solved.... & really thanks for ur support !!

Friends I solved it...
It was pressing Menu & Home button 1 by 1 not simultaneously...
Solution occurred by just a luck.... nothing else
it's not power button or home button. it's the menu button for selecting an option. btw you don't need to hard reset the phone for something as simple as this. you can unlock it using your google account.
The prob was...

does not work on my aquos s2, not crystal 2. thanks anyway
This is for your device what I found on the Russian site .
1. First turn off the device
2. For a few seconds, hold down the Volume (+) + Turn on
3. When we see the Android image or the Sharp logo on the display, we stop clicking on the buttons
4. Press the Enable button to enter Recovery
5. In the menu, select wipe data / factory reset using the Volume Control buttons and confirm by pressing the Power key . 6. Then in the menu, select Yes - delete all user data by pressing the Volume Control keys and confirm the selection by pressing the Power key 7.
