So I finally tracked down the bootlooping problem with my phone. Information technology is the power button is stuck pressed on. I have ordered a new flex cablevision for the ability push and volume keys, and my phone is currently disassembled, but I cannot observe any guides/videos on how to replace this flex cablevision.

Does anybody have a link to such a video? I am hopeful this fixes my phone.

Thanks,
B.D.

This happened to me recently. Believe information technology or not, I fixed it by cleaning information technology. The issue is dust/ dirt getting stuck in between the button.

Y'all tin can try repeatedly pressing the button fast.
If that doesn't work, try pressing information technology super hard.
If that doesn't work, try hit information technology (gently!) Against a table (touch on the power button)
Finally, if that doesn't piece of work - and this is what fixed it for me - take a small piece of paper and stick it in betwixt the ability button and make clean it by moving that around. Every bit much as you tin.

Tell me if whatsoever of these worked.

I had checked that site. Cypher well-nigh removing the power and book buttons. I suspect that one has to advisedly separate the flex cablevision from a metallic support, and then one could unscrew the metal support. I will do a teardown once my new power button and volume buttons flex cable arrives.

Thank you,

And then, I received my new flex cablevision and installed it. Like shooting fish in a barrel peasy. I did accept to remove the previous flex cablevision/button.

There is a metal bar for support when you button the buttons with three screws, on pointing vertical and ii pointing horizontal. Because the button flex cable gets aptitude over the support bar, yous have to either carefully remove the flex cable from the support bar, or cutting the flex cablevision around the ii horizontal screws. One time removed from the body, a sharp pocketknife is needed to remove the glued buttons from the support bar. Fairly easy to popular them off with a sharp knife.

Finally, due to an error in the organization I had to wipe and lose my information partition. But all seems to exist well now. I'g not endmost up the telephone simply yet, as I have a new battery coming on Monday and I desire to supersede the current bombardment before I close it upwards fully.

Promise this helps anybody else.

There is a metallic bar for support when yous push the buttons with three screws, on pointing vertical and 2 pointing horizontal. Because the push flex cable gets bent over the support bar, yous have to either carefully remove the flex cable from the back up bar, or cutting the flex cable around the 2 horizontal screws. One time removed from the body, a sharp knife is needed to remove the glued buttons from the back up bar. Fairly easy to pop them off with a sharp pocketknife.

Finally, due to an error in the system I had to wipe and lose my data partition. Only all seems to be well now. I'm non closing up the phone just nevertheless, as I take a new battery coming on Monday and I want to replace the current battery before I close information technology upward fully.

Promise this helps anybody else.

My wife's P3XL but started doing this last nighttime... Planning on ordering the parts & tools today to do this myself. Any boosted tips for me or pics/vids of the process you took while you were doing it?

No pics or vids. Recommend buying plastic razer blades to carve up the back. Be conscientious of the fingerprint sensor connector. I concluded upwardly breaking mine.

I used a estrus gun to hear upwardly the dorsum mucilage and then worked the plastic razer blade around the trunk. It was painful to do, but it all worked out.

Good luck.
