When i try to press the volume buttons they take a lot of force to activate. Any fixed? Is it the buttons or the plastic? Can the buttons be replaced?

Yes the buttons can be easily replaced. It is possible that dirt has built up inside it or that the plastic has deformed. If you can still press the buttons then i doubt it is the entire flex cable.... Search on ebay for the plastic volume rocker and an online guide will show you how to!

So my the volume rocker died...initially it was just the down button now up button as well.
I'm in Bangladesh so if anyone can guide me on DIY project it would be a great help.
There are a bunch out there, try Google, Ebay etc

How would I go about fixing it with some glue? Would a bit of glue in middle do the job?

Depends what exactly has happened to your volume button. If it's completely off, I don't think you can do much wrong anymore
Well when I got my flex cable fixed, my volume button was also fixed. I noticed when it started to come off, there was a sticky substance in the middle. So I guess why not?

Parts are available online,, Google replacing it and you can find good videos on how to replace etc.
In the mean time, use a toothpick to move the volume buttons.
I have found the volume button part online but u need a flex cable for the volume button which I cannot find online

the volume buttons that come from factory are some what of bad quality they keep breaking and just to let u know flex cable has nothing to do with volume buttons, and as for replacing it u can do it without opening the phone but its complicated u can end up breaking the new volume buttons, better is to take of the back cover of the phone n thn replace the volume button.. the hard side goes towards the uper side of the phone n the soft side towards the lower side
Does anyone know of any cases that would cover the captive buttons back, home and recent apps? I would love to use the on screen buttons provided I. Paranoid android but its annoying seeing the outline of the captive buttons even though I turn the lights off...

I've done a bit of searching around for this but I think they simply don't make cases like that :/
What about turning off capacitive backlight and then installing one of those mirror screen protectors? Would that have the desired effect??? Anyone using one??

I have a clicky home button. It kinda is like a two stage button. Its very clicky and not soft and smooth like the power button and volume buttons. If I were to describe the sound it almost sounds like there is a little piece of sand stuck under the button and every time you press it, the button hits it. How would I go about fixing this? I bought the phone off craigslist so could I just go into the T-Mobile store and get a replacement? Or is there a way to fix it? Any help would be AWESOME

That's the noise the button makes.
Seriously?

No it is not smart ass. I've had other Samsung devices with the same button. It is not how its supposed to sound. And it does not happen every time I press it. Usually on the left or right side it does

Mine makes a clicky sound. Everyone I know with a S4 had the same click sound.

In my opinion the build quality is inconsistent. I've bought 3 of them and one had a defective power button (i.e., recessed slightly and difficult to press). If you think something is wrong with your home key go to the store and compare to their demo phones. If there is a real problem with your phone they will tell you your options for getting warranty service.

I just checked 3 different m919s, they all make a click sound on the home key. the power button is mushy and quiet on all 3, and the volume buttons are just in between if you can hear beyond the beeping.
if you're sure something has creeped in there, have you tried taking some dust off to your phone?

How can it be the same button on a DIFFERENT Samsung device?
SOS!!!!!!!!
My girlfriend S4 has the same problem but my S4 is fine. I guess there's no fix.
I've got a little home button sticker on mine that came with my Spigen case. Doesn't really make much of a click.
Had this on my 2nd one. Its like the button kinda gets stuck a bit then it clicks. It just started doing it. My 3rd replacement is fine. Hopefully it stays that way.
