http://androidforums.com – I got my Tab 2 today, and after using it for about 2 hours total and it blinked off. At first I thought that it was just the powersave function, but it won't turn on. I've pressed the power button, I've held the power button, I've held all three buttons, nothing. I've been charging it for about the past hour with the AC adapter and still nothing. Any way to get it to start again? ::EDIT:: I've also tried to hold down the button for over a minute, and holding down the button for 30 seconds and holding a finger on the screen. (General)

Tab won't turn on 22 weeks 1 day ago

Hi, I've had my Tab for just over a week. I was using it and the screen went black. I pushed the power button and it won't come back on. I've tried holding the power button, holding power and volume up, holding power and volume down, each for close to 20 seconds and still nothing.

What do I do to get it turn back on?

Can't resume after suspend 21 weeks 5 days ago

Hi,

I am running Fedora 17 on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo li1718 laptop with Radeon Xpress 200m graphics card. When trying to resume after suspend I just get a blank screen. Also the wireless light goes out. No buttons work. I have to hold the power button to force the computer to turn off, then reboot.

Hi,

Got my S4 yesterday. All seemed to be working OK until this morning. I charged it up to 100% and then the screen wouldn't turn on, either by the power button or the home button.

There was a blue light flashing at the top so the phone wasn't completely dead.

OK first of all, if you can fix this you are a GENIUS!

Basically, my power button stopped working today. The phone DID work fine and the screen turned on via plugging in the charger etc as it 'jumps' it.

HELP! The Power and Volume buttons stopped working. I can turn the screen on by holding down both volume buttons which also brings up the power menu that you usually get when holding down the power button. I can turn the phone on if its off by reinserting the battery. What's going on? Can anyone help? Samsung Replenish Pheonix rom Stock kernal Link2sd enabled

My nexus s is giving me trouble. While phone is on, keeps waking and sleeping on its own randomly like the power button is being pressed.

If i try to press the power button myself to put it to sleep sometimes it brings up the power off menu instead (as if I've held it), and the rest of the time it does nothing.

i got a new htc hero after my old one broke, and this one was fine for awhile but now it wont turn off when i hold the power button down. it just turns off the screen no matter how long i hold it. i tried deleting any apps that could be a problem but still nothing. the only way to turn it off is to take the battery out and put it back in, but it turns on with the power button. help?

Got a Nexus 7 it’s completely dead out of the box. Tried charging for many hours, tried pushing the power button for 30 seconds several times, etc. All I get is vague white snow. Also tried holding down the on/off button while holding the volume button a android appears lying on his back with his chest open!

Support Phone won't turn on??? 21 weeks 6 days ago

I just took my Galaxy S3 out of my pocket and hit the power button to "wake it up". Nothing. The blue led is flashing in the top left corner. But it does not wake up. Tried holding power button down for 10 seconds. Nothing. Tried the hard reset (Power, Volume UP, Home Buttons). Nothing. Plugged it into the wall and let it charge for a while. Still nothing.
