Hi,
My note 8's screen got damaged a month ago, but from past two days the power button seems to be unresponsive. 
I have to press it atleast 10-15 times for my screen to wake up.
Even if the screen doesnt turn on by a single click, the usual touchscreen functions still work. Ex: I can still open the particular app by clicking the screen on the specific area.

Kindly help.

Hi,
the hard press indeed works, but like I said before, the phone functions work normally even if the screen is black.
Ex: I can do hard press to wake up and then the slide the screen and unlock the phone using the patter or iris, but the screen will be black.
