Does anyone have the same problem? If I have opened an app and want to go back to my home screen, I press the circle-symbol, that means the "homebutton"...but nothing happens...It's not a touchscreen issue, because you see a reaction on the touchscreen and the multitouchtest in service menu also passes.
I'm on Stock V20B firmware, no root, no open bootloader. Am I doing something wrong? :laugh:
Ok was a dumb question... solved it...debloated one app too much...

Hi guys, I have a strange problem since yesterday morning: Touch buttons don't work anymore. When I press them it's like i press the bottom of the screen, for example if I'm in the home screen, pressing the "home" button will open the menu, and if I press the "search" button the phone opens the personalize menù. The phone didn't dropped (not recently as well) and the previous evening it functioned without problems, I played with games and all buttons worked. I've tried doing a factory reset, but it didn't solve the problem and it made the boot of the phone impossible (it stucked on the ROM splash screen endlessy) so I flashed another ROM through recovery but with no results, the phone works well in all of its functionality except for the touch buttons.
Can you help me with this problem? My phone is rooted so I'd like to not sending it to HTC for warranty reparation...

I'm afraid but that's the only option left for you to send to HTC because if it is a hardware problem and you waste all of your time trying to get the buttons working and you miss the warranty time then you'll just have to throw your phone in the bin
I have looked under the settings for hours and have not found anything! Need help :/
The only way for me to get back to home is to press back a bunch of times, I can't hold the home button to pull up recent apps either.
I am new to android, or just phones in general and my friend flashed my phone with AOKP.
Any help is appreciated!
Alright guys, I was the one that flashed his phone, and he's new to forums so I'll address the problem he's having.
We live far apart so can't really fix his phone for I don't have an S3 myself. His home button was working as it should, home would exit, long press would bring up the multitasking etc.
Today randomly his phone wouldn't respond to the home button. The thing is, I told him to wipe dalivk, do a factory reset, etc. and hes able to use the home button in the recovery but not the ROM itself.
There's a huge probability that he has possibly changed the settings somewhere binding the home button to do absolutley nothing on keypress, but I am just unsure of his settings on his phone. Could anyone help out please? Thanks.
what rom?
Flash stock? See if it's working again?

what rom and launcher.
Op says its aokp.
Next thing id try is reflashing the rom.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
with CM10, you can configure what the home button does, or you can assign "nothing" to it. aokp is basically cm10 with more options, just fiddle with the settings and find that option, it should say something like "hardware keys"
Guys I need your help. The Back and Menu capacitive keys on my G Pro suddenly stopped working.
The physical Home button still works. What happens is that the app icon or a menu selection nearest the Back or Menu key will be executed.
Ex. the Phone icon on the Homescreen is placed on the bottom left part (stock LG icon dock) so when I press the Back button, it will launch the Dialer, or let's say Im inside the MMS/Messaging app., the conversation in the bottom part of the message list will open if I press the Back or Menu key instead of pulling up the Messaging options or get out of it. I hope you are getting what I'm saying.
I tried installing E98810E (and 10A as well) Philippines .KDZ but I always get an error at 30%. I'm losing hope :crying::crying:

I have got the same problem here since yesterday.
My E986 phone is flashed with the turkish kitkat firmware.

For now I enabled the softkeys to use my phone (nexus style).

Yes, my phone also got the same problem. Now I am using "GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys" (like Nexus) but it's not so user friendly. I am also waiting for this fix,

Problem got worse after some time. The whole bottom of the screen stopped responding.
Flashed my phone back to stock jellybean and got it repaired under warranty. Apperantly a common hardware issue.
Got my phone back a week ago and flashed it again with turkisch kitkat. Everything works fine for now.
Hope someone can help, I've searched but couldn't find the answer.
I have a really annoying problem in that if I lock my phone then unlock it, if i open an already open app, the bottom key bar (which contains the back key, home key and open apps key) is unresponsive apart from the home button. If I'm in messaging, the keyboard will be as well. If I press the back button for example, it shows it being pressed but does nothing. Sometimes the Google search thing pops up when you hold the home button. To remedy the only way is to press home then open again without locking the screen. Any ideas?
Ya samething happens to my phone also but not always. Wait buddy you will get more bugs like this its sony.
RichRoberts44, what is your FW? Do you have root? Did U unlock bootloader? More info is needed to even try to find a solution
This happens to me also from time to time and I don't even use the key bar, I use gestures with a 3rd party app. When this happens only home gesture works. It does happen rarely though.
The same problem began on my phone two weeks ago. Over the last two weeks, it increased. I had to restart my phone all the time. Besides the two issues you describe, I had two additional issues:
The clock on the lock screen didn't always appear when I managed to turn on the phone.
When I put the phone to sleep, I often couldn't turn it back on for several minutes.
Over the two weeks, all the problems occurred still more often. At the end, it was so annoying, that I backed up all my stuff and did a factory reset and recovered the backup. Now it is working perfectly again.
I run 14.4.A.0.157
are y0u r00ted 0r what?h0w ab0ut the running apps?is it t00 many?

So what you gotta do is back up all your stuff and unroot your phone and then reroot it. That's the only way I got it to work for me. Factory reset won't work so don't even bother.
