Guest cjb110 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 I've got an odd problem that's started happening with my SSRL5 blade. The power button wont turn the screen on/off, and to wake it seems almost random which button I need to press. It has always woken up though... Any ideas, I've had SSRL5 for about a month now, and it wasn't a problem to start with.

Guest hugobosslives Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 ....describe your problem a bit better please........ :unsure: do you mean other buttons some times work instead of power (i.e menu/home/back) or do you mean your power button doesn't work very well (as this does happen)

Thinking about it, it seems like the power button is no longer toggling the screen...the button still 'works' as in a long press will bring up the power menu, it just wont toggle the screen. And its recent...which suggests an app upgrade, but I can't think which app could have caused it.
Guest hugobosslives Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 the fact that other buttons wake it could mean that your device is not sleeping properly. only power should wake when it is in deep sleep. if the button still works, it sounds like an app or rom badword up. have you restored any settings with titanium or system data etc? you could try wiping and reinstalling your rom (or another) to see if its software or hardware related. (and if you keep a nandroid you can restore when you find out...)
Guest cjb110 Posted May 18, 2011 Report Posted May 18, 2011 Trying the key test in clockwork and I get no responce from the power button:( So it does seem conked...and its not just the case button being worn, as pressing it direct makes no difference. pooey! was planning on upgrading, but also keeping it as a backup!
Guest cjb110 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 bah definatly bust, and apparently its only a 6 month warrenty, which means 17+p&p to send it to repairmob, and then another 15 if they can fix it...and considering I would like to upgrade to the Sensation when Orange or T-Mobile get it...seems rather pointless. not a happy bunny :P

Not bought any myself but sounds like something Maplin would have. :rolleyes:
