I'm in a bit of a jam here. My OnePlus Nord (the original model) has shut down due to a low battery, and now that I've plugged it in, it shows 56% charge but refuses to turn on. The power button seems to be stuck and I can't press it down effectively. I've tried fiddling around with the sides of the button, but that hasn't helped. Is there a way to power it on using the volume buttons or any other method?

You can actually boot your OnePlus Nord into Recovery Mode without the power button! Just follow these steps: 1) Make sure your phone is charging. 2) Press and hold both Volume Up and Volume Down buttons at the same time. 3) While you're still holding those buttons, plug in the charger if you haven't already. 4) Keep holding until you see the OnePlus logo pop up. This method can sometimes bypass the broken power button.
I’ve been trying that for 20 minutes now and it hasn’t worked. Am I missing something?
