Power button defective? Can't turn phone back on right after shut down.

I can hold down the power button to get the menu to turn the phone off, however, once the phone is off, the button does not turn the phone back on. I have to pull the battery to get it to turn on. Anyone else? Am I missing something? TIA

Re: Power button defective? Can't turn phone back on right after shut down.

Call HTC, best bet is to let them know of the issues you are having...once they get enough of the same issue reported, they will work on fixing it. Alot of people come in here and post their problems, but it never ends up getting to the correct area, which is HTC technical support.

I will supply the phone number you need to call to get these issues sorted....

HTC Customer Service/Tech Support
1-866-449-8358


I found a issue on my Touch Pro 2, with the screen vibration...turn it off but the dialing still vibrated, HTC tested a phone on the spot at the Call center and noticed the same thing and reported it to the correct department.

Still post in here, but call them..they manufatured the phone, so they have the know how to fix it..

Hope that helps a bit.

Re: Power button defective? Can't turn phone back on right after shut down.

Damn you people are impatient. That time is just for the linux os to do the final sig term and shut off. And there is a pause... From working with Linux, I assume that is normal in Android. The TP and TP2 (even tho it runs windows) kinda did the same thing. There was a small delay before you would turn it back on. (atleast in my experience anyway)

Its just how nix shuts down...
