Do you really think they don't have a way of forcing the phone to shut off? I haven't done the research on it but I'm sure if you do something like hold the power button down or push a combination of buttons the phone cuts the power off.

Do people really think HTC wouldn't have thought about this? The first thing that customer service will tell you at any location when you bring your phone in is to reset it or pull the battery. It's essential to have the option to hard reboot when software acts up. They aren't stupid enough to not include some method to do so.

This would work if HTC designed a phone that was sized and shaped like the iPad...

^ What he said.. Having access to the battery isn't necessary. I've been stuck in bootloops before and I've been able to get out and back into recovery without having to pull the battery.

Don't know how many of you guys knew this but the cutoff combination for our 3D is volume up+down+power.

If someone's already brought this up, I apologize.

Let go of everything and quickly hold the volume down button.

^ What he said lol. As long as there's a way to cut off the power like on our phones (which I'm sure there will be), I don't see what the gripe is with the embedded batteries other than those who use more than one battery.

Edit: And just to be crystal clear, you let go of everything and hold power+ volume down.

Same here. I've actually tried it multiple times with no success. Not saying it doesn't work. I've just never been able to get it to work.

If I've helped you in any way... hit the "Thanks" button.

That method always works for me. You have to make sure you're holding the button down as you press the power button or you'll miss your chance.
