Hey guys, sorry for the late post. I recently purchased the S7 edge AT&T when it first released. Since then, the camera lens has shattered, a small crack has appeared on the bottom left edge, and my power button and volume down keys have stopped working. My experience with the S7 edge has been anything but pleasant. The last of my issues, the power button and volume down, is quite recent. The story is as follows. About 2 weeks ago, I had this exact same problem after installing all my new apps, having just received the brand new phone. For some time, the power button(and volume-down) worked as it should, but 30 minutes later, it just quit functioning. I factory wiped the device and it was fixed. After the wipe, I choose to start the device with a fresh hard drive, meaning I opted not to use any backups, and it worked fine. I installed the apps one by one to see which app was causing the power button to stop working, and no app caused it again. That is, till now. I have not installed any new apps, everything was working fine at 7PM today(its 10PM now), when around 7:30, my power button and volume down bottom stopped working, again. Obviously, the clear fix would be to factory reset the device once again, but does anyone know why this happening, what I can do for a permanent fix, or does this mean I have a defective device?
Thanks, pant2002.
