[Q] Soft Keys and Home Button - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Hi
I have a problem with the soft keys and home button on my Note 8. They will work find responsing to both finger and s-pen touch. They then stop responding to finger touch althoug the menu and back buttons continue to respond to the s-pen. The problem is real intermittent because after a while they will start responding to finger touch again. I was on the Flex ROM and thought that this might be a problem so reverted to stock. This did not fix the problem. Has anyone had a similar issue? I thought it might be a hardware issue but when I boot into recovery the soft keys work fine.
Cheers
Richard

Front Face Button issue.

Hi Everyone,
Just wondering if any has this issue?
Ive got a HTC Branded TyTN and I've installed various ROMs on the phone, included the standard rom. The buttons on the front of the phone seem to stop responding after 5 inputs.
For example, I activate the start menu with the Windows Button. I use the D-Pad to scroll down the list, i press it 4 times, the keys stop responding.
The slide out keyboard works fine.
Whats weird is, if i press the Ok button below the track wheel twice, I can then press the front face buttons 5 more times.
Any suggestions. I've done hardresets, Rom updates, im leaning toward a hardware issue. i'd like your input though.
Thanks

Touch Pro 2 Keyboard Sliding Problem...HELP!

HELP everyone! I'm having a problem with my TP2. Whenever I slide open the keyboard, the screen goes blank. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks.
Perhaps the way you hold the TP2 while you are opening it is causing you to press the power button?
I had the opposite problem, sliding my keyboard shut would turn off the screen. Eventually sliding the keyboard shut would randomly reset my phone. Figuring it was a software conflict or registry mess up, I did a hard reset. The problem still continued, so I had to do a warranty exchange. So far so good on my refurbished phone.

Home button unresponsive on tab s 8.4

Hi there
Bought this second hand.
Was working fine, and all of a sudden the home button isn't working. I've tried a reset and a factory wipe/reset - still nothing. Google search doesn't really help. The back and menu buttons to either side of the home work fine, just the central home button which isn't working.
I know there exist software solutioons - but would rather get the hardware fixed/diagnosed.
Any help?
Thanks
I also have the same issue. My button is unresponsive, yet, the finger print scanner works. I was wondering if anyone had a similar issue?

Screen digitizer problems​?

Anyone else having a problem with a dead spot at the bottom of the home button? That's the only problem I'm having work the phone other than not getting nougat. Not sure if it's a bug or a messed up digitizer.
I had a deadspot somewhere near the keyboard's backspace button. Upgrading to Nougat seems to have fixed it.

Problems after Nougat update-Samsung Galaxy A5 2017

Hi,
I have been noticing some problems in my Galaxy a5 2017 after updating to nougat (India).
1) the battery seems to be dropping much faster
2) screen does not go blank during calls. That is the proximity sensor should blank the screen when the phone is lifted to the ear and come on again once its taken off. But that does not happen at times and I have to restart the phone after which the problem goes away for sometime and reappears again. I have installed Smart Screen On/Off (from Luutinhit), Home touch and Volume on my phone.
I have installed Smart Screen On/Off so that I do not have to keep pressing the hardware power key all the time to lock the phone.
Home Touch is installed as I do not want to press the hardware home key all the time I want to go to the home screen.
Volume is installed to avoid pressing the volume hardware button all the time I wish to change the volume for each app.
Is anyone facing the above issues?? Also are the above installed apps responsible for the erratic proximity sensor behaviour??
If anyone could suggest alternate good apps that work well with finger print sensor I would be grateful.
Thanks,
