When I click my Mi A1 power button once, it acts like it was clicked twice, which turns off the screen and isntantly turns the screen on to lock screen. This is really annoying and I would like to know if others are also experincing this issue.

I apologize if this has been asked before.

I think we all have it. It bothers me sooo much when I'm trying to take a screenshot but since I'm on a custom ROM, I can avoid it altogether. AOSiP DerpFest gives you some pretty good options, so I made the device lock by holding the back button and a screenshot via a shortcut in Quick Settings. Now I don't mind it as much. I already ordered a Mi 9T from AliExpress, now just waiting for it to arrive.

I use home button shortcut from nova launcher to lock my screen. But how did you do screenshot via a shortcut in quick settings? Does it need root? I'm rootless

My power button isn't working n I sometimes need to restart my phone because sometimes my phone lags so I need to refresh. But without the power button I cannot restart. My phone is not switched off bdw. I'm using it but I simply need to restart sometimes. Is there any alternate way to do this?
MI A1.

If you have adb activated, you can connect your phone to computer, open command line and type "adb reboot". It takes some time, but you don't need to use physical button.
Alternatively, you can download some virtual button apps on Play Store, it keeps a virtual button (normally as a widget) from you can open the power/restart menu.
