Hey everyone. I never owned a phone where you can't pull the battery but I was wondering how do you a reboot or battery pull on the Moto X?

Holding down the power button on a phone like this usually works and if not power button and down volume is typically a true hard reset. It's not quite as powerful as a battery pull as there is still potential for it to not work but you have to really break it for that to be the case.
Hold the power button and down volume buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds does a simulated battery pull.

I flashed ElementalX (been a long time since I've OC'd) and now I can't get past the HTC screen. I hold down the power button and it just blinks to no end. This is why I like removable batteries. Do I have to wait until it dies or what?
Try holding down vol down then power let it blink until it reboots

Did that and let it blink over 100 times (counted). Nothing.
Try holding the phone under a bright light and vol down power

Can't believe that actually worked. Someone on Reddit told me to so I did. I thought that was for people who had problems in a call or something...
Thank you.

try holding down the power button until the home and back button flash 15 times then let go of the power button, then press and hold the power button again and wait for the home and back button to flash again and it should shut the phone off. then you can hold the power and vol. down to boot into recovery. this happened to me and thats what worked for me. hope this helps

My understanding is that sometimes, the light sensor gets tricked into thinking the phone is in a pocket/covered and locks the screen off as a result. Seems a little odd, but then again I've never had this kind of issue with any other device I've owned, and it seems reasonable enough to believe.
Is Elemental a Sense-based kernel though? This issue has mainly been cropping up on AOSP ROMs/kernels (which forced me to revert to a Sense 4.1 ROM. )

wow i can't believe that did it, thank you! thought i was screwed. tried all combinations of holding power/vol+/vol-... whispering pleadingly to it... sure enough holding the #$%^& thing up to a bright light and vol- plus power did the trick. :good:
Hey guys the power button in my phone is broken and now my phone is switched off as i forgot to charge my phone.

The phone was in my pocket and when I pulled it out it was dead. When I press the power button nothing shows up, no LED lights nothing. I've tried hard rebooting by holding Vol+ & Power at the same time even Vol- & Power but still nothing. Does anyone know what the problem is? It's been perfectly functional for a month till now.
If you plug it in to a charger for awhile do you see any lights?

I'll try as soon as I get back. I'm outside so also in sort of a bad place for the phone to die.

So I plugged it back and it worked. Should I get all the data off of this and send it in for a replacement anyways?
Lol sounds like your battery ran out

Could it be that it was on without you knowing? The screen, that is. I have heard it and seen it make a change, forget to put it back, screen stays on, battery dies, etc. Maybe it was just an accident? Just keep tabs on it and see how you battery life is after you charge it again.

Not a major issue but just curious as to why the stock screen shot does not work in a lot of apps but does in some? I've already fixed by using a mod in xposed but would really like to know for my own curiosity. Or maybe I'm just missing something or doing it wrong but it's vol ⬇ and power at same time correct?

Yea hold down the power button and volume down at the same time for a second or two. Also you can use the quick memo option.
Working on d959 you have to "one finger it" making sure your finger is spread evenly between the two buttons. If all fails use xposed framework to put it on your power menu.

Hi
So I have my one m7 and someday it went off and I bet it was just low battery energy but when I'm plugging it to charger there's no LED sign of charging like it was everytime and my phone doesn't even power on.
Charge for 30 minutes
If led not back
Try with spot light on the light sensor
And turn on phone
