Disassemble the phone and drip a few drops of alcohol on the power button, and take-take-take over and over again,
then wait for the alcohol to evaporate,assemble phone :good:

I live in the Ukraine, use a translator, the battery must be removed so that there was no fault shock
I think you'd better hand it in for repair to replace buttons
sorry for my english

Power button temp fix
I have had a problem with power button that did not work. Google play store has apps that reroute the power button to volume keys. I use one called "Volume power". I am not sure if it needs rooted access. My phone is rooted. Description of app should say. Hope this was helpful

Hey I just got a T-MOBILE HTC TP2 from Craig's list, and the G and V keys on the Physical Keyboard dont work!
Would this be a problem with and Keyboard or the Motherboard?
Thanks, G

Probably keyboard, but how can we tell? It is probably difficult to tell even with a visual inspection, whether the mobo or keys themselves are at fault....
If you're brave, you can try to pull it apart and see if anything is awry. Otherwise, you might have just bought a dud.
The buttons can be separated and the contacts cleaned. It might fix the issue, and is not too bad of a job. You will need some t-5 bits/screwdriver.

Alright I'll try it out! thanks!
I think I found the problem: It's the MOBO. Right above the G circuit there's a short, and the V being connected to it, therefore doesn't work.
Is there any way to fix a short circuit?

Um, remove what is shorting it? Repair broken path ways? Take it to a electronics repair shop perhaps...
Pics might help us understand what you are talking about. Your description is so vague.
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

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.

Do you mean the menu/home/back/search keys? I think these are connected to the digitizer and if the digitizer doesn't work you are going to have hard time.
Btw if you badly want or need to use the phone try using a hdmi cable + usb otg cable + mouse and/or keyboard(even if your whole screen doesn't work, this could help).

Most repair centers don't even try to repair waterdamage. When did it happen? If you're quick enough they might save it.

After last official update (7.3.2.0) on Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon I got issue with vibration.
Button and keyboard vibration randomly stops working 5-10-15min and then works again.
Anybody else?
Nobody else have this issue after last update?
it can be an update issue?
I also face the same problem. How can we resolve this?
My mobile vibration gone completely please help me
Thanks
Issues with official updates, are better discussed in miui thread, I guess?
Think your problem is the same as mine. Motor stop working randomly and start doing is job again in the same way.
Thought was a software problem, realized is an hardware one since i noticed that, when he stop vibrating, if i shake the phone, hes starting again.

You can send your phone in a xiaomi center. I saw you are from india, so you should have no problem. I'm from italy, this means i've to sent it back to china and wait a life to get it back. This is why i didnt resolved the problem and i lost interess on it
Think i'm going to wait the expire of the warranty and try to fix it by my own: i saw some videos and already tried to open the device, it shouldn't be difficult

No, the problem was because of loose connections so I reconnect the motor strip and also put a piece of paper inside the motor slot and tighten the motor. Now it is working fine.

I opened up my phone.
If you are not an advance user or don't have experience how to deal with phone hardware, I recommend you to go o service centre.
Otherwise you want to do yourself then first of all you have to check that if the motor is working or not. If the motor is working then you have to check the connection points the problem with me was because of loose connections and the motor was not tighten. Just check these points and you are good to go.
PS :- I always recommends to go to service centre because opening the phone voids the warranty
This is my situation.

How to check if motor works?
My phone is making a clicky sounnd when i shake it
Hi all!
First of, my device did sometimes not fast charge, only regular charge.. No matter witch charger or cable combo i used. Sometimes it changes during charging, fast charge-regular-fast etc.
So i was thinking maybe i have some dust or something in the usb hole, so i tried to clean it with compressed air and some piece of plastic.
Now the charging is started with fast charge and after 5min dropped to regular..
And some new problem, the microphone is dead.
Not completely tough, it does record some loud and close enough sounds and when listening the speaker almost in my ear i can hear something, but in call use the other person can not hear anything, except with me speaking with loud speaker mode on. I guess it uses different microphone on then..?
I am open to any suggestion to solve my problem.
I am on vacation one week more so i can't turn to my phone seller with warranty conversation. But i guess that is my best change to get it working, warranty.
I'll see how that goes cause the device bootloader is unlocked.. (rooted and xposed also)
Anyone else had these issues?
Any help please!
Edit. V10D stock rom, rooted and systemless xposed
Got back to stock with v10D..
Allso got bootloader relocked in fastboot with 'fastboot oem lock' command.
The yellow triangle on startup is gone, so now sending it back for warranty->
Edit.
They said at the shop that it will take max. 2weeks... So we will see..
Edit. 2
I tried the camera module at home and the microphone worked perfectly with that, but it didn't regodnize the module buttons at all and didn't charge(normal or fast). So i gave it in for warranty too.
Ok, so today i got call from the shop. They said that the service center has sent them a message that says: we do not have suitable parts to repair the device.. Lg will replace the whole device.
So i got my self a brand new phone and cam module from the shop, in a factory sealed original paggage.
For the lack of development for G5,
I think i am going to sell it and try to manage with my old Zenfone2 till Nexus release :fingers-crossed:
