Hey guys as the topic says my lock button ain't responding!..
All was fine until today my phone suddenly hanged and I took off my battery to restart the phone but tit turned on on its own without pressing the power button !..and now when I try to lock the device or turn it off it ain't working!::confused:
I am thinking is it the ROM issue (I'm using official cm7) or hardware issue(key is broken)...
Please help!:(

A Guy in my neighborhood runs a repair shop and I took my fit to him!..he said that its not a hardware fault but indeed it's a software defect!..He said that in such a case mostly 80% it is a software defect! ..
So I was planning to flash a stock ROM can anyone provide me with the link of latest Indian Firmware for Galaxy Fit?..(along with a small procedure,if possible) ...
Thanx guys!..

Electrifying
It's not an Official CM7 prob. But, since, it seems nothing except repairing ur phone... you should give it a try. Try to flash both stock firmwares one by one, and see whether it's back to normal.It doesn't matter which one u flash first. Flash either four pkg firmware or one pkg.(depends on U).:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Power button issue

Hey admin I have this strange issue with my fit !
Whenever I charge my phone with a different charger of the same specs or if i overcharge my phone the power button responds like its a touchscreen button or so !
I do not need to press the button !
Even if I roll a finger over it it would lock or unlock n may switch off or reboot at random !
Plz solve this thing !

Note: already tryd numerous ROMs !
currently on MII v4 !

Hey i facing the same problem here.
my power button has been broken for a year.
But when i go to service centre, they said they must change all of sparepart. because the thing that broke is the main machine.

I dont know they're trying to trick me or not :(

i had same problem earlier but not now..

There was a time when my Galaxy fit device started acting weirdly like trunng off automatically, frequent hangs, etc. But i was okay with all those things till my power off button suddenly stopped working at all. Although i still was able to go to safe mode and recovery mode but it wasn't working during normal operations. Till than i was usuing the old FORYO 2.2 version of android. I thought maybe upgrading to Gingerbread can solve the problem. So i tried upgrading my device through Samsung kies. Unfortunately due to slow internet or some other issue i wasn't able to upgrade my device.

Than i finally upgraded my device manually through Odin. All my hopes were dashed when i noticed that my power off button was still not working. Than i flashed various roms like Jana Rom and finally i'm using stock rom.

After using this rom for about 1.5 years one day i suddenly noticed that my power off button started working miraculously. One of my friend who also use Galaxy fit had same problem but his power off problem was automatically fixed quite earlier than me. So i guess it would be best if you wait long enough and hope that the power off button would one day started working again.

    Download stock ROM from here:

    http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/

    In Search write s5670 and you now have ROMs for download.

    After download ROM.zip, extract it.

    You now have MD5 File. Flash this 4 MD5 File with ODIN.

    This is an example:
