Today I noticed that the power button does not work because when I can not unlock, but to remove and replace the battery automatically turns on what I'm thinking is that the power button got stuck
any idea?
Going to need alot more info. Where you running stock or custom rom?

im not running a rom, i stay in stock rom.
all started when I received a text message and read the message, when I wanted to block it and not work the power button. I have noticed that sometimes it works with a few strokes with my fingers but it shows me if I turn off the phone. I believe that the power button is stuck
Sounds like a warranty exchange

sometimes with few little strokes xD
when I put the battery automatically turns on, but if I keep pressing the 3 buttons combo I can enter recovery mode, but don't works power button in this mode =/
I'd try an clean around the button and if that works
I am not sure thus will do anything but if you can't get your phone running at all you can try to Odin flash stock to see if maybe it clears the problem. If you cab get into recovery then the power button works for something

yes that's the problem, i cannot get to enter to download mode Because the phone will automatically turn on
Try this. Take battery and sim out. Plug USB in. Hold volume up and down. Put battery in.

Inzombie, what exactly did you do? I have been having the same problem for quite some time...I was able to get into download mode using a program I found on the internet, and I flashed back to stock but the power button is still messed up, it doesn't work at all. What exactly did you do
i know this is an old topic but I have the same problem. I got this phone from a friend and now I cant use the power button. I have taken it apart twice now trying to fix it with no luck. I know it isnt the rom. The button is "stuck" but it still clicks. I know it is stuck because it will never turn off. Once battery is in it turns on, and for 3 button recovery, I only need to hold the vol rocker.
Kinda stumbled upon this press power button and home button and screen shot. if already posted please remove

Hold down the power button, then press Home. Should work. Don't tap the power of course, you'll lock the screen. Don't push Home first, that'll just bring you out.
Works on first try ,I like it

Works well once I realized I needed to hold the power button, and not tap it.
Hey guys my vivid is looking like is dead. It has power because I can feel it vibrating but the screen is blank. It is cracked the glass so I am hoping replacing it will fix it or is it a deeper problem?

Hopefully replacing it will fix it. If you happened to set up a VNCviewer on your phone you could check by accessing the screen from the computer, but I'm guessing that is unlikely.
Or get a mhl adapter and hook it to ur tv and see if that works .
So yes when I got home I was able to get boot loader on and I tried factory reset so it wasn't my screen I am guessing but when trying to get into recovery or trying to reboot its only on the HTC screen. This came out of nowhere so know I am a Little lost. What could of happened?

if your bootloader is still locked run the stock ruu file and it will put you on a stock Rom and fix any errors

Alright will do when I get back home. My battery seems to be low though. Any tricks to get it to charge. I don't think its charging and yes I am unlocked with the toolkit so I will try relocking I guess see if it does the trick. Really at a loss as t what happen. Last thing I remember was talking g a picture of the sunset at the beach and then to having a dead phone
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
big scare you guys the phone powered up and turned on by itself now. I am guessing it has something to do with the screen so I am not going to mess with it until I exchange it. Hopefully this week thanks for the help
Seems like I spoke to soon its happening again. I am getting a power light but no boot up. The home keys will vibrate but the screen stays blank. I am know wondering whether it's the screen or the battery or maybe both..... One thing I do see when I am able to boot up to bootloader is that its telling me the battery has low voltage. Could that mean there is not enough voltage going to the phone from the battery.
Is there a way for me to make;
Back=Back
Long press back=Menu
HTC= Home
Long press HTC= Google Now
Home=Recent apps,
If someone could either do this for me or provide me with instructions I would be very grateful.

I'm pretty sure the "htc" logo, is just a logo. There isn't any way to make it do anything.

The HTC logo has already been made as a menu button, and also is implemented in "logo2wake/sleep" and "sweep2wake". But to answer the op's question, yes it should be possible

Do you think HTC will role out an update to use the logo as a menu and get rid of the black 3 dot menu on some apps?

It was explained by a member of HTC's support team in a Reddit Q&A that the HTC logo in fact does not have a sensor beneath it:
http://www.reddit.com/r/htcone/comments/1d6p8f/debunking_some_myths_and_answering_some_common/
Myth/Question #1: The HTC Logo is a capacitive key that can be programmed as an extra input option.
A: There is an XDA video showing a user who mapped this HTC logo to respond to button presses. Even with that video- this is false. There is no capacitive sensor located in that area. The XDA user programmed the final row of pixels (or a couple rows) located in the middle of the phone to be accessed as a keypress. There is no hardware supporting capacitive touch in this location (one of the engineers showed me the opened up device personally).
There is an image I found online and posted in this thread showing the capacitance locations

Cool...
...but it does work as a button, regardless if it's a capacitive one or not. Nobody here said it's capacitive, just asking if it could be used as a something other than a menu button which is does do in all custom kernels. The OPs request seems totally do-able with a custom kernel.
But no, HTC will likely never make it a feature. But that is why we have bad ass devs.

Not to harp, but the logo is not a button, period. No matter what kernel you use, you will never be able to press on the logo itself and have the device respond. Every implementation of logo2wake or logo2menu will say to hit the area "above the logo" to activate the feature, since you're then close enough to the screen to trip those first few sensors.

I mean, so long as it works, no one really got "trolled" per se.
I just have my logo or above it for the technical people as my menu button. Home is home, long press Google now, double tap for recent. That's ideal for me. I'd want my home as home not menu

Man, all these kernel devs are lying to us, calling it "logo2wake" and stuff when it should be called "eversoslightlyabovethelogobutnotonthelogobecausethelogoisn'tarealbutton2wake"
I wonder why they don't call it that...Oh, because it sounds retarded, that's why.
I get it's the screens digitizer which is ever so slightly functional under the black border at the bottom of the screen and they simply remap the tiny sliver above the HTC logo to function as button.

Thats for little fingers and pencil dicks
large girth fingers actually hit the logo button (at least the top half) and it works :silly:
Said my share, going back to playing with my pencil :crying:
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.

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.
