Xperia PLAY :: Display Wont Wakeup By Using Power Button
Jan 4, 2012
I have a 9 month old Xperia Play through Verizon, about a week ago, I started having this intermitten porblem where the display wouldn't wake up by using the power button or the home button. Sometimes it works on a single press, other times it takes multiple presses. occassionally it refuses to wakeup at all, forcing me to pull the battery. I have already tried a settings reset and begrudgingly follwed up with a factory reset, which of course whipped 9 months of data away. Neither reset process had any affect. I have really grown attached to this phone and would hate to lose it
I've just bought an Xperia Play and I'm having trouble using it. I've been charging it for about 5 hours and the only thing that's happening is a flashing red light on the power button. I've tried all the suggestions I've found (such as taking the battery in and out, swapping the SD card etc.) and none of them seem to work. Is there anything else I can try?
My partner's Xperia Play decided not to boot this morning. (It was fine at 7.30 but by 8.30 it was dead). On pressing the power button, it vibrates for a few seconds but does not show any other sign of booting. He has tried removing the battery to boot it but to no avail. When he plugged it into his laptop, the machine failed to recognise the device. It just continuously made the device connect then device disconnect sounds. The laptop is only a couple of weeks old so I highly doubt that it's an issue with the USB ports. It does not detect the phone long enough to perform an update. Is it possible that the USB cable is faulty, or the USB port on the phone? Or could it be a compatibility issue with the laptop?
I have a holster cover for my XPRT, and am annoyed that when in the holster with the screen facing out, the top clip almost entirely covers the power/wakeup button. It means I have to take it out of the holster every time I want to wake up the phone.Does anyone know if it is posssible to set up the quich launch botton on the side to also wake up the phone??
I don't like having to use the power button to wake my display screen. My old droid I only had to press the home key. I am afraid the power button will wear out fast on this phone.
I have just recieved my Xperia Play from the repair centre and they exchanged it but the the power key is not working. It's stuck and I can't press it it's gone a bit inside
i plugged my phone up last night before i went to bed and it was working fine. when i got up it was turned off, when i try to turn it on the led on the power button blinks red. i tried plugging it up and it showed sony ericcson on the screen then nothing. its not registering the charger, and ive tried removing the battery and checking it out and it the battery dosent appear damaged and my sd card is fine.
My sony xperia's power button is not working. the phone charges when i put it the charger in but it does not switch on when i press the power button.
Without the charger i have tried but the phone wont switch on. I tried to do a phone call to the phone but it does not ring. Therefore the phone is off. I let the phone on before and now the phone is off and cant be swtched on.
I updated to 2.1 a while ago, but today I plugged it up to the computer and it said there was an update available. So I updated, and now my phone will not turn on. When I press the power button, the light just flashes red 3 times. I can do anything with it on the computer, becuase the computer won't recognize it while it's off.
I've had some problems with my X10 lately. Admittedly this was after a full-on day in the Scottish Highlands where the phone was exposed to cold and rain. Getting back into a warm car the phone started going mental, the led lights flashing like a Christmas party disco and the vibrate constantly on. After a session on the radiator I got some life out of the phone. It basically works except for the following:
- the top left power button to standby/turn the phone off does nothing (the phone switches itself on when you put the battery in)
- same for the bottom middle button to standby, although it will bring the main desktop up.
- the red led light is on permanently (this is so annoying)
I have re-flashed Gingerbread and had the phone on charge for hour upon hour to no avail. I have installed a free widget that puts the phone on standby but I can't power it down without taking the batter out.
getting the power button working and telling me if there's a way (hardware or software) to get the red LED light to go out (this means that any messages/missed calls reders the green light inoperative)
Just updated to lollipop. Now i can't use the power button anymore to set the volume on silent. I only have the options shutdown, restart, take screenshot and screencapture. Is it possible to add functions to the power button?
I have a problem with my power button with my xperia z3 dual. It isn't working. I tried the troubleshotting using the pc companion but still it isn't workin.
I bought the Z5 yesterday and if I hold down the power button, my ringtone starts playing. If I hold it down again, it will start playing again over the other ringtone and my only option is to use the rocker button to silence it but when I turn the volume back up it will still be playing so my only option to stop it is to restart. This is everytime I hold down the power button.
I have an Xperia Z5 and when ever I press and hold the power button it makes a non stop like it's ringing and I can't stop it unless I switch the phone of.
The start button on my Sony Xperia Z3 D6603 suddenly stopped working.Also the volyme controls next to it.I have shut down the phone with the reset-button behind the hatch, next to the SIM-card-slot, in hope that it would do some change to restart the phone. But now i can´t get the phone back on.
How do i start my Xperia Z3 when start button / power button does not respond?Is there a way to jumpstart it?
I have 100% power in the battery, and the battery icon shows when i have the power cable connected.I have tried to connect it to my PC with the USB-cable (with 4 treads in it, for data communication, and not only for charging), but PC Companion don't find my phone
First, my xperia x10i had frequent starts up, minutes after, signal lost. It has a red X mark on the signal status . once you make call its says no signal or insert sim. I did that a lot but nothing happens.So i decided to re installing the 2.1 update using PC companion. It helps,, everything was ok for one day.. After which, it restarts again and again, signal lost and reintall again the 2.1 update.But this time, after i press the power button , the vibration never stops... it never started up.
Dont know if anyone else is experienceing this issue but i can no longer use the power button to lock my phone. I cannot even use it to turn the phone off. but if the phone is off i can use it to turn the phone on so i dont see this as being a hardware issue at all. If anyone has experienced this or knows a fix please reply to this thread.
I'm currently facing this problem and it's really annoying. I never update my phone or whatever because it will slow it down.
My phone went out of battery and it turned off. So i plug the charger in and waited for it to restart. After restarting it, I realize there are several settings that ran away IE: My ringtone preferences and keyboard preferences. So far, I've already readjust it, But ever since the phone restarted like that, I can no longer lock my screen, not even if it times out itself after 15 seconds. and when i press and hold the power off button, instead of showing the menu for options like "Silent phone"/Flight mode"/"Shut down" it only shows power off. What can i do to get the original settings back ?
I got used to end calls quickly that way in Android 1.6 and it worked pretty well for me for several moths. I actually found it a very good idea, one of the best and most intuitive since I started to use it.ow I often do not end my calls properly and that cauese me a lot of trouble. Local SE customer support told me that it is a firmware matter and cannot be changed. Isn't there any HW buttons configurator or another way to configure the HW buttons on the phone?
Some days after I bought the Xperia X10, I realized I need to hold the power button lont time ti turn the X10 on, is it normal? Can someone tell me, what is the average time for holding the power button?
I just got my nexus 6p i noticed when i press power button I only see switch off option nothing else (restart or aeroplane mode etc) I scanned through everything and could not find anything,Attaching screen shot.
Last week I suddenly noticed that my phone's power button wasn't making a clicking noise anymore when pressed. Now it's more like pressing a rubber button or something. Phone itself is about 6 months old. I also checked my wife's Z3C and, while being about two months older, it's power button is still clicking like mine was before.
This morning the screen of my Z5 Compact starting coming back on after I press the Power Button to turn it off. It seems to be triggered by movement: If I'm holding the phone after pressing the PB, the screen comes back on immediately when my hand moves. If I place the phone flat on a table and press the PB, without additional movement, the screen stays off.
The screen stays off if allowed to Sleep past the set duration.
The past couple of days I've also been getting notifications that certain Apps are preventing Stamina mode from operating. This morning it was Facebook. Yesterday, it was another one I can't remember. Can these issues be related?
So i have a 2 month old sony z3 and the power button suddenly became unresponsive, today. Everything else is working fine on the device.
The screen begins to dim and then sleeps but instantly wakes up. So basically the device screen is on all the time now. I think I've tried everything i could.
