I ahve small problem. While im on the phone the screen goes off and cant do nothing. What i can do is only press power button to restart. Even if caller end call i still have screen off and vol/menu/power buttons doesnt help. Only pressing power for restart the phone.
What is it and how can i fix it ?
Which Rom are you running? Any apps that might be interfering with proximity sensor?
Hello, this morning I restarted my phone because it was freezing and it turned on on the boot screen where it gives me options to Recover, Reboot, etc. The volume button broke a long time ago. It sometimes works to move the option but pushing the power button doesn't do anything. Is there anything I can do to restart my phone avoiding this screen? It goes there every time. Could one of the volume buttons be stuck? Please let me know because I really need my phone ASAP. Thank You!
Hey all. So lately i've been having problems with the Sony Xperia x10i, and I decided to do a factory reset which seemed to clear all my problems but now the home button does not work at all, except when I use it to wake the device (when the display is turned off and I press it, it turns on the screen and shows me the homescreen).
Is there any way to resolve this?
Thanks,
David.
I can't figure it out my home button on my mega was just working properly, and now it's not. How do I fix this? The home button no longer wakes my phone up. When my mega screen goes off i must press the power button on the side to get my screen to turn on. Please believe me when I say the system settings are enabling it to wake device. I did install pimp my android hrs before this occurred and I've carefully gone back through the modifications and nothing .still having the same issue, please help.

While using the phone, after it has been woken up, does the home button work?
If no, its clearly a hardware problem
if yes, a factory reset might do the trick
So my friend's stock s3 started randomly rebooting recently and just couldn't get to the home screen without many tries. And it got worse this morning as she had spent about an hour to no result. The problem is the phone would keep rebooting during the GT-I9300 screen.. Most of the time it wouldn't get to the Samsung boot animation.. If I charged it, the battery logo would be shown as loading instead of charging.. After trying the hard reboot combination a few times which didn't work, I noticed that I could see the battery with green bar every time I pressed the power button!
So I tried something silly.. I kept pressing the power button repeatedly during boot and surprisingly it booted up to the home screen. However, without being charged, the phone would still suffer from boot loops (at that moment we confirmed that the pressing power button repeatedly would 100% work) . As we were desperate to understand the problem, I got to know some apps that she installed recently and uninstalled them. These are the apps that she recently installed and later uninstalled:

Guess what?! The bootloop has not happened till now! So the reason I'm writing this post is because of curiosity xD
1. How does pressing the power button repeatedly help the phone to boot up? If I stop pressing it before the locksreen, it would fail.
2. Can an app really cause a weird issue like this? Or is it just a coincidence that the phone magically got better after uninstalling the apps?
Hope to get some answer from you guys for learning purposes thanks in advance!
Sounds like your power button is faulty.
