I have a same problem with my cdma verizon galaxy tab (sch-i800).
I´m certain about this problem isn´t hardware.
This problem happens after a new stock rom apply.
Another problem is my recovery menu, don´t start (power + vol up).
Someone here could me help, please??
Thank you guys...

Same problem here on my gt p1010 plz help
My tab seemed to freeze i rebooted it then the home and search keys went unresponsives
Thx for your help

What firmware are you all on? GSM or CDMA?
| Don't Revive Me Bro! |

Is it a Verizon Galaxy Tab you guys are having problems with? That is the one I am having problems with.
Long story try to be quick....
I am new to Android, I use nearly ever Apple product and got a hand me down fully working mint to VZW Galaxy Tab 7 from my uncle yesterday. It worked great but got an update and boom same problem everyone here is reporting, only the back key works the other 3 keys are not responsive.
Here is the kicker....
I backed up everything I could to my Mac and did the hard reset and got into manual mode(??) and used the volume rocker to navigate to erase everything and start fresh, which required me to touch the home key and it worked.
So, has to be a software bug or something.
Edit: Firmware 2.2
Not sure if this helps but some more info...
Hardware version I800.0.3
MODEL SCG-I800
Baseband S:I800.0.3V.DL21
KERNEL VERSION [email protected] #3
BUILD # SCH-I800.EC02

Here's mine : french gt p-1010 (wifi only)
Froyo 2.2.1 xwkc1
Kernel :[email protected]#1
I hard reseted too everything seems to be fine now...till next one?

try to find the right rom to flash
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App

So, I will have to find the instructions on rooting my device? That can be done on Mac OS X or must be done on Windows? After rooting the Tab? I can use a custom Rom? Is that how this works?

I9000B lagfix problem

Hello guys,
I'm having a problem with my Galaxy S, I'm noob w/ Android. I read many users(not from here) saying that Lagfix really does a difference in performance, excited, I downloaded GST(Galaxy S Tweaker) and without root, instaled lagfix.
Now my Galaxy S is working, BUT, the home button stopped working and the back button is working as home button, also the camera stopped working, the touch became horrible, I can only connect to computer using Debug mode and everytime that I turn on the cellphone, appears I9000B and before appear the S logo it changes to I9000.
There's something that I can do?
I'm really desperate and don't care if lose data. I only wanna my Galaxy S working as it should be.
Eh. What's the name odd your device. Sounds like you installed lag fix for the international sgs

reflash it back to stock or flash another ROM made for the I9000 or I9000M instead of USA variants

[Q] Back Button Stuck [Solution!]

Hi all,
I have a GT-I9000M from bell and I just recently upgrading to froyo(jk4) through kies. My phone has never been rooted/lag-fixed, unlocked and flashed before. After upgrading to froyo I have a problem with the back button being "stuck".
This does not happen all the time but occasionally at random it does and is very annoying since I am used to pressing the back button instead of the home button.
Here are the symptoms:
When I press the back button, it would appear to be stuck. The light for the back button is off(and i can't press it anymore), menu key is still light up. I can't press the menu key, I can press the home button but that just takes a screenshot because of the back key still stuck. Another thing is when I press the power button ONCE, the screen closes and then immediately turns back on.
The only way to make it "unstuck" is to press the power button since it "shuts" off the touch buttons. Even then when once I press the back button again it will get stuck. The back button will start working properly after some time randomly. I cannot relate this problem to any specific applications or actions I do. It seems to happen randomly.
I've done a factory reset before I upgraded. Did an additional two factory resets after the upgrade because of this problem and formatted my sd but the problem still persists.
What can I do to fix this problem if can be?
Thanks
EDIT: Thanks to BlackDino for the solution!

Ok, goto your dialer and type the following:
*#*#2663#*#*
Then click Touch key FW update.
Let me know if this fixes the issue for you too,
I had the same issue and after doing this I haven't seen the problem in a number of days.
This may or may not work, I have found this menu on my own and don't know if it will solve anything

I am having the same problem. Never had this problem at all with 2.1. I am also going to try your suggestion and report back.
Thank you,
So far so good. Usually by now the problem would come back. So I can confirm it works for now! Also, the touch keys seem to be a lot more responsive than before.
Thanks BlackDino!
The problem seems fixed for me too.
Thank you.
Glad this fixes the issues for everyone!
Had the exact same problem and this fixes the problem for me too. Thanks!
This actually "Broke" my back and menu buttons. I'm on Darkyy's 7.5 Rom with Speedmod Kernal K12F 512hz (JL2 Modem). I assume it probably tried to download a FW for an international i9000 and it wasn't compatible with my i9000m hardware. *shrug*.
Trying a factory reset to see if i can get my buttons back.

This happened to me out of the blue on JL2. Luckily, it looks like the fix worked for now. Any word of this problem coming back for those who have applied the FW update? Normally i'd apply the fix and forget about it but this device is so janky...

Just tried this and my buttons broke as well... I am on a Bell Vibrant running the latest Doc ROM and SpeedKernel 12I with JL2 modem.
I just reboot and it's still broken... will have to flash JL2, re-run this trick, then flash the ROM back.
Wow... less than 24 hours after I got my SECOND replacement phone... the internal SD has died through this process.
Way too frustrating.

It's been two weeks and several rom and kernel flashes, this issue has not reappeared.
Sent from my GT-I9000m
I can also say that this method worked great. Flashed back to JL2, firmware upgrade, and then flashed seeARMS rom.
edit got it fixed

[Q] So my phone is messed up after 1st flash (home/back button doesn't work)

So I attempted my first flash using seeARMS JL2 2.2 flash. Everything went well for the most part but then I realized my home button didn't work - so I tried a fix (*#*#2663*#*#) and this didn't work - in fact it made it worse as my home AND now the back button don't work (yet the home button works to get into recovery mode - so it's a software issue)
I tried wiping cache/data and re-installing the ROM via CWM but this didn't fix it.
What are my options ? To flash the original stock samsung firmware (JL2) and start over ?
I need advice/help
Even when I went back and did a full restore via Nandroid the home button and back button still don't work - when previously they did - WTF is that all about ? I thought the backup / restore worked ?
What hardware do you have? i9000? i9000m? Captivate?
It seems to me that people had trouble with the bottom row buttons when they mixed up Captivate and i9000 ROMs...

i9000m - BELL (called the vibrant here)
the ROM was for BELL users only so I don't see how I could've mixed up the ROMS
the Kernal is the SOK super optimized kernal for i9000 - and the rom is seeARMS i9000m BELL JL2
OK, as you say the JL2 is definitely for your hardware. No idea what went wrong, but now that you have blasted the touch key firmware, you might be in a bit more of a pickle.
These guys on this thread seem to have had some success with rolling back to stock firmware and then doing a touch FW upgrade again.

Yeah I noticed that the home button was messed with the original flash but everything else worked -- I once had an issue with the back button and the 3663 dial fixed it so I tried it again - however this just messed up my back button, so now both back and home button isn't working
shouldn't I be able to just go back to the official JL2 rom release from Bell to fix this ?
I have same problem after I did that 3663 . Both buttons doesn't work anymore. To avoid to be again without my phone for 4 weeks on service I bought SGS remap buttons program and is working very well .
I remap power button to Back , Vol Dwn to Menu and Vol Up to Power.

Yeah, its sounds like an official ROM is the answer (JL2, or *gasp* an Eclair rom like JH2 or JM8!).

It's an application on the market "SGS Button Remapper" . It's working well on my SGS. It's not free ,but it's worth any penny out of 2 or 3$ paid .

Hi,
this sounds like my problem.
I have it on 2.3.6 after replacing the keypad because of water damage and wrong cleaning off the home-button...
I am searching for a solution quite a long time.
It would be great if you could post the problem solution here.
Thanks a lot.

yeahaa... after 3 days of testing and testing i finaly made it ....
Well the trick with *#*#2663#*#* works only on froyo and not on any other stock rom...
So just get Froyo and after flashing it do a full wipe within the recovery menu. Afterwards boot and enter *#*#2663#*#* and update the TouchPad FW.

Anxious to try FroYo
Same thing happened to me a week ago, the four touch keys across the bottom of my T989 suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason.
When I bought my T989 in Nov2011, I got it from a guy who bought it for his son, but his son decided he wanted an iPhone instead, so it was brand new BUT already rooted (juggernaut v3.1, CMR). It was running flawlessy until now. I hadn't done anything to it and was still running the same rom.
Over the past week I've gotten up to speed and I wiped it and flashed stock ICS 4.0.4 UVLH1 rom after which the keys functioned normally UNTIL Kies said there was newer firmware, and so I updated to that. I tried wiping and reflashing ICS in hopes the keys would work again and skip the Kies update, but this time the keys didn't work at all. I've had the phone apart to examine the hardware and (without removing the screen) everything appears perfect. I am still holding out hope that it's a software thing, not a hardware thing.
I tried the *#2663# code trick and pressed the "Touch Key FW Update" button, but it just stayed busy for the four hours I let it grind away (obviously not working).
So, noob question, does anyone know where I could find a stock Froyo rom for the T989? I've only seen it for the T959. I really want to try this and see if it gets my touch keys working again.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] korean galaxy note capacitive button stopped working suddenly.

hi friends need help .
Last night i rooted my galaxy note with cwm.tar recovery and superuser.
everything was working fine until i downloaded rom manager and did something, i dont remember (perhaps flashed rom ) and my device restarted after that my capacitve back button and menu button stopped working and lights are showing on always even i tried to disable it from setting. I flashed to stock rom ics and jelly bean but still problem not solved please help me friends. i sure its not hardware issue any suggestion ?
galaxy note shve160s.
OK here's you're first problem, this is not the thread for your device. Second you may need to use Odin to flash your original stock ROM. Your stock firmware can be found at www.sammobile.com or samfirmware.com. If that doesn't work it maybe a hardware problem. Next time search XDA for your phone's model number. This thread is for SGH-T879. Good luck. P.S. don't use ROM manager to flash CWM If your exact phone isn't listed. You're lucky you didn't brick your phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T879 using xda app-developers app
thank you it didnt solved my problem perhaps its hardware related problem.. unlucky me
