Note 10 plus power button issue

[jonesey]

I have a galaxy note 10 plus. The power button recently stopped working unless I restart the device then it works for a few presses then stops again.
I an guessing it's not a hardware fault as it does work for abit but they for some reason stops.
Is there any way to find out what is causing this.
Thankyou

Welcome to Android Central! What are you trying to do with the Side Key -- bring up the Power menu, or Bixby, or something else?

These days, you typically have to press the Side Key and Volume Up together to bring up the Power menu (unless you changed the Side Key function in the system settings).

If using Goodlock and the Registar subapp then this can override power button settings. I had the same issue.

Another option in accesbilty assistant menu has a floating toggle for power button

Hi. Thankyou for your reply. I use the left power button to either put the phone in standby or turn off all together.
I have tried the power button and volume together but this only turns the volume up. The weird thing is as mentioned the power button works as it should after a restart but then stops again.

Hi. Thankyou for your reply. I don't use either of these. Thanks

Hi. Yes I have done that as a workaround for now. Unfortunately that don't help when my phone totally runs out which has happened once ( luckily plugging into laptop sorted it) .

Does this also happen in Safe Mode? https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00062983

If it still happening in safe mode then try factory reset, if that doesn't solve it you going need a repair shop.

I deleted your other post in the s23 Forum , you already started a thread here so no point to post all over..
