HTC Desire :: Power Button No Longer Works So Effectively

Aug 1, 2010

Anybody have any probs with the power button? Got caught in a torrential downpour this afternoon to find my wallet and phone somewhat damp after being in my soaking jeans.Power button no longer works so effectively once the screen saver kicks in I cant unlock it. Thankfully its still within warranty so will take it back to get a replacement.This is the 2nd phone I've had that has suffered this prob. My previous phone, a dreadful Sony Ericsson died a death.Avoiding the rain is somewhat unavoidable when you live in Scotland. MakingTaking a phonecall in the rain is sometimes a necessary evil. I really have to question the build quality of some of the modern phones. Do they even test the use of phones in the rain? It seems somewhat of a basic function, and to have such a major malfunction with such minimal exposure to rain is quite disappointing to say the least, especially when it never came into direct contact.

Motorola Droid X :: Power - Lock Button No Longer Works

Jul 31, 2010

My power/lock button no longer works. Phone hasn't been dropped, only had it for 3 days and it's been babied. I hoped pulling the battery and rebooting might help, but it didn't. In fact, after that the only way to get it to reboot was to plug it into my computer via USB.

HTC Desire :: Power Button To End Call Is Missing From My Desire

Nov 10, 2010

I've been scouring the web a solution to this but can't seem to find it anywhere. I know it's possible to end a phone call on the Desire by pressing the power button after enabling it in settings. But when I go to Settings/Accessibility I get a pop-up message saying, 'No accessibility related application found. You can download a screen reader for your device from Android Market. Click OK to install the screen reader.'If I press 'Cancel' I'm in the accessibility settings with a single grayed-out 'Accessibility' option. But no other options are available.

HTC Desire :: Power Button Does Not Work

Sep 25, 2010

I could not charge the handset and it automatically powered down last night. Thereafter I restarted it again without charging it and as expected it powered down after a few minutes.This morning I plugged in the handset for charging and then pressed the power button to put the handset in to 'sleep', to my surprise it did not work. I ignored it and left it for charging and when I checked back the handset had automatically gone to 'sleep'. I tried to wake it up by pressing the power button, but it did not work.The only way I can wake up the handset is either by calling it or plugging in the charger. I tried all of the following but none of them worked.

1. Removed the battery and left the handset for a few minutes and restarted it.

2. Removed the SD card and restarted it.

3. Removed the SIM card and restarted it.

4. Removed both the SD and SIM cards and restarted it.

HTC Desire :: Controlling Power On Button / Phone Powers On Too Easily

Nov 6, 2010

One big problem I've noticed is that when you need to have your phone switched off (e.g. on an aircraft, etc.) it's all too easy for the phone to switch itself on whilst in your pocket - the "power on" button just needs the slightest tap and then it springs into life.I know whilst on a plane I could pre-set it to in-flight mode before powering it off, but that's not the point. Like when powering the phone off, there is a delay and a set of menu options. I'd like something similar for powering the phone on - programmable delay and/or combination of pressing say home and the "power on" button.Does anyone know of an app or some code I could run to alter the way the phone behaves ?. Not sure if the only way to add this functionality is part of a flash update as it needs to survive a power off, etc.

HTC Desire :: Buttons On Bottom To Bring Up Lock Screen Rather Than Using Power Button

Aug 31, 2010

Has anyone worked out if it is possible to set one of the buttons on the bottom of the Desire to bring up the lock screen rather than using the power button at the top. Only just got the phone 3 days ago but this is (sor far) the only niggle I have.

Android :: Geocoder No Longer Works On New PC

Feb 16, 2010

I have a problem getting the Geocoder to return results on my new PC during development. I started writing a android app on my other (Win XP) system and Geocoder worked fine and returned locations based on an address that I passed to it.

I recently bought a new PC (Win 7). Moved the code over to it and now the no address queries return any results. I tried a couple that did work on the xp machine, but are returning no results on the new pc. It does not give any errors.

I did generate a keyfile on the old pc. Do i need to create another on the new pc? Does the Geocoder require the key? It is not from the maps api.

HTC EVO 4G :: Evo Swype No Longer Works On Phones?

Sep 26, 2010

I'm sorry to bother everyone with this, especially if it was already asked. My sister, her husband and her son (my neph) own an Evo. They were OTA's to froyo way back. Now, I've gotten a call from her asking me why their swype no longer works on their phones. They had a swype.apk that was unauthorized, fyi. Note: I am not asking for a link, I'm asking if anyone knows what happened. She's asking me (everyone comes to me with their android questions).

HTC Hero :: Long Touch No Longer Works

Feb 24, 2010

On my HTC Hero, when typing messages, I could always easily access characters like "?" and "!" and numerals by simply "long touching" that button. Very convenient. However, recently, that featured stopped working. I can no longer "long touch" the K-key and get a question mark like I used to.

Is this a setting that has been inadvertently turned off? If so, I can't find it.

HTC EVO 4G :: Pressing 2 When Voicemail Answers No Longer Works

Jun 9, 2010

Normally if you call a Sprint phone and voicemail picks up you can press 2 which bypasses voicemail and automatically sends a text showing "PLEASE CALL (# your calling from)".

For people that use the automated greeting it usually says "You have reached the The Sprint voicecaller "recites number" please leave a message" and at that point you press 2 to to send the page showing you called.

NOW on the Evo, (or maybe its the Andriod platform) when people call you they get a greeting that says "you reached phone number" and if you hit 2 to bypass it, it says sorry "that option is not available". This sucks and by no means is this feature a deal breaker for me, (this phone is The One like Jet Li) however...

The reason I'm bringing this up it that "press 2 to page feature" I been using for years now has been extremely useful when I have no service or 1-2 bars. If you miss calls by receiving that quick text showing please call. this at least alerts you know someone called when you didnt have service.

Just looking to see if anyone knew of a workaround or another quick option, (besides the person having to type a text. I think ppl are less reluctant to leave messages nowadays..I dont either)

For some reason the history tab on the system panel app no longer works. When I click it nothing happens. I'm not sure why it stopped. Every other part of the program works fine. Any idea what the problem could be?

Also I'm typing this from the default browser and it seems to be working just fine, I'm impressed.

Android :: 1.5 Bugs Reports - Calendar No Longer Works

May 1, 2009

Since the 1.5 upgrade, the phone exhibits a lot of strange behavior. 1) Calendar no longer works. It starts, then exists and not with a "forced exit" msg. I've tried deleting all of it's data/cache. Same behavior. It does appear in what looks like a background window (hold "home", which I just discovered today), but if selected it just returns to the main screen. 2) Market has the same problem. 3) Once the application list window is displayed, it takes a noticeably longer time than with the previous version for the window to respond to gestures 4) Set-up got into a weird circle of starting, "forced exit", repeat. I tried to enter set-up to disable the wifi, but accidentally hit something else, and do not know what that is.

General :: Adbd Insecure V1.30 No Longer Works On GS3 After 4.3 Update

Nov 27, 2013

adbd insecure no longer works on the GS3 4.3 update.

I updated to SuperSU 1.80 and CF-Autoroot worked fine, but now adbd insecure says "Binary: Insecure, USB debugging: Disabled" even though I did enable USB debugging. In Eclipse DDMS it just shows the phone as "Offline" but if I change back to "Binary: Original" it will show up normally, except of course I can't access most of the files. If I toggle the USB debugging checkbox off and back on, it will read "Binary: Original, USB Debugging: Enabled" but no combination of turning things on and off on the phone will ever get both "Binary: Insecure" and "USB Debugging: Enabled" to show up together now.
