How can I power on my Galaxy M51 without using the power button?
Asked by

I have a Samsung Galaxy M51, but my power button is broken and the battery just died. I've tried connecting it to my computer and holding the volume buttons, but that didn't work since I didn't enable developer mode. Is there any other method to get it powered on without having to disassemble my phone?

Unfortunately, it may not be possible to turn on your phone without the power button. That seems to be the general consensus here.

You might want to try this: right as you plug your phone into a power source, press and hold both volume buttons at the same time. It takes a bit of practice to get the timing right. I’ve heard that using a USB-C port on your laptop could improve the chances of it working, too!

PowerUser07: That was my problem too! Sometimes it shows that blue screen, but it doesn't restart when I press volume down—just turns off the display again.
