Power button problem

[lilmilo]

Hi

since today I have a problem with the power button. I can push it, but nothing will happen. It doesn´t matter how hard I push it.

 I have to push it several times before I can use my mobile (it is not off, it´s in "sleep mode" or whatever you call it)

Thanks for all suggestions

This makes interesting reading: Sony Xperia Z1 Compact Review

The guy refers to exactly this problem but has said that recent firmware upgrades have fixed it.

I have a slightly different experience with the power button.

Every now and then when I press it to switch off the screen and lock the phone, it turns the screen blank for a moment and then turns it back on, without locking the screen.

I don't think my hands are shaking that bad (yet)...

Hi. I'm having the exact same problem. Can take 10 seconds to bring screen on after pressing button. Thought the button was faulty but it just takes along time to turn on sometimes. Software is up to date have reset many times. Problem is still there. Very annoying.

Same thing started to me todat, thought the button was broke but turns off okay and back on okay. All up to date too, so so annoying. This phone keeps having so many bugs!!!

Similar problem started for me last night. Requires multiple power button pushes to get it out of sleep mode. Phone's barely a month old. Seems to be a recurring problem across a few threads

any one has tried software repair with SUS?

Same thing happened to me yesterday (My Z1 Compact is 1 week old), but it was a one time thing, so I didn't pay attention to it. It has been hapening on other android phones I had, too. However, I haven't found any solution yet (factory resets didn't help).

This happened to me recently after a system software update. After another reboot the problem seems gone.

Am also having the same problem... Sometimes if u press the power button it takes a few seconds to respond. I keep getting the same delay response until I restart the phone!

This also happens to me sometimes.. About once a week.. It takes around 5-6 seconds for the screen to come up..

A bigger problem which I'm not sure it is related is that sometimes I can not answer the phone. I can see the screen when someone is calling but I can not swipe to answer. This is very bad.
