One month the device working very very good but one day alarm going to ring, i stopped it and the phone hangs ! I holding power button for 10sec to restart. After loading android OS everything works fine(RIL, WI-FI, Location and etc.) BUT!!!!! if i leave device to sleep or lock it manually from power button the device freezes and dies and no way to start again while not holding again power on/off for 10 sec And this repeated again and again every time, does not matter witch ROM is installed (Global, Developer or CM13). If anyone from you have the same or similar problem let's share experince here please.

I was reading a book and the screen just stopped responding to finger touches, I think a reset might fix it but I can't switch it off. Long press on the off switch gives me the Android power options but of course I can't select any of them.
Any ideas? apart from waiting for the battery to go dead.
/edit solved it, long press of power and center button uintil you see the HP logo. I thought there might be some Android specific way.
For touchscreen not responding, I often just click power button to turn off the screen, then home to wake it up. That seems to fix it more often than not.
Next time you need to reboot, just hold down Home + Power for 10+ seconds
Hello guys, I'll try to be as brieff as possible:
My cousin has a SGS3, which suddenly started showing the power options screen (when you long press power button). Now his phone restarts on its own every time. When you insert the battery, it turns on by itself. If you try to access download mode or recovery mode, it does it but restarts again. I read it may be the power button is not working properly, but I dissassembled the phone and the switch is works normally (it's not broken, either stuck). I read several solutions about clearing cache and stuff, but it just keeps restarting! Like if someone were pushing the powerbutton every time. Btw, he discovered he can turn the phone on and actually stop the phone from restarting if he continously presses the power button and menu button alternatively without stopping (which is useless). When he stops doing that, 3 secs later, it restarts again. Any suggestions?
It's a hardware fault, did you test the button with a meter?
If yes then something else is shorted, to power on when the battery is inserted.

Ah, so this is merely hardware. I did not test it, but now it seems clear something is wrong on the inside (which, unfortunately, I cannot help with). Thanks mate!
I have been playing with my MOTO E for quite a few days.
The ONE thing that kept bothering me for all these days were the Random Reboots.
After trying many thing finally I have come up with a practical solution to this problem.
I have been having random reboots with the Stock Rom as well as other Custom Roms. Usually while pressing the power button the power menu used to appear for few seconds and then without pressing anything the phone to restart, and this happened with the stock rom as well as other custom roms. I had contacted Motorola, they had asked me to boot into SAFE mode and see if the problem persisted , and it did. So I started using the trail and error method and what I found out that it's a hardware issue, or a issue with how our power button works.
SOLUTION :
So basically what I did is I replaced the power button with the Volume buttons for waking up the device, and for putting it to sleep i assigned the pull up gesture(which is usually for launching google now). I assigned the sleep function in CM11 for the pull up gesture(if you are using the stock rom you'll need to use screen lock apps which allows that function).
After applying this, I have been using my phone for about a month now, WITHOUT a single random reboot.
This is a simple yet effective solution.
Hopefully this'll help you and save you those annoying random reboots.
Can you please explain in detail ? I am using stock rom, and my phone reboots randomly few times a day.

Use "Pocket Lock" application to lock and unlock/wake your device instead of the power button and check if the problem persist...!!
Hello,
as I was going mad with the "Power Button random reboot", I discovered your helpful post. I didn't know it was possible to set the phone to wake up on volume buttons. On the other hand CM allows you to put your phone in sleep mode touching the notify bar twice.
Half a day with these settings, it seems good, Moto E has a real problem with power button, now I have to control myself not to touch it anymore !
Thanks.
Hello everyone so here's my story
Phone has been flawless until a few days ago never been so happy about my purchase.
I have had the phone for 2 years now no problems what so ever.
I started to notice the screen staying on all the time tried pressing the power button to put it into sleep and nothing.
If i hold down the power button it prompts me if i want to turn it off this rules out the power button not working.
Display setting-sleep after 15 sec
daydream is on
security is off and i also tried adding a screen lock to add the feature power button instantly locks also automatically lock is set to 54 sec.
i went into developer options and stay away is not checked.
Things i tried
I downloaded a app that puts a icon on my screen to put the phone in sleep mode WORKS! I am no expert but it seems like some type of trigger has broken between the power button and sleep.
I downloaded wakelock and nothing is running in background.
Did what i wanted to do last resort and did a full factory reset and recovery phone is fresh problem is still there.After searching for answers and reading many post i am at my last resort and posting for some help?
Good Evening
I own a Samsung Tab S2 (SM-T810) and I am running stock firmware (Android 7.0), rooted and TWRP as a custom recovery.
Yesterday i was using my tablet when the screen suddenly turn off, i tried to turn on the screen as i usually do, with my power button but it doesn't work, i connect the charger and the screen wont turn on (like usually do).
So i go to TWRP and i realize that every button was working in there, if the screen turn off i can wake up with power or home button like i normally do on the stock OS
The problem begins when the system (Android 7) initialize, the navigation bar + home button wont work from the beginning , the power button works only for turning off the screen but not to turn it on, the volume buttons work until the screen turns off
Once the screen is off there is no way to turn it on, neither power button, connecting it to the power, or notification, the only way is restarting the device by long pressing the power + volume down
I already do:
wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik from TWRP
Reflash my stock firmware with Odin
This is my first time posting a question on this site, if you need more information please let me know.
Thanks in advance
I just remove the Samsung cover from my tablet and it fixed the problem!
