Hi guys I have been facing a problem ever since I got the device and do not know whether the issue is only with my device. The issue is that with all the roms the capacitive back button stops responding after a while and I have to turn off the screen and back on to get it to work for a while and again repeat the procedure. Is there a fix for this which I may have missed. I an using buttons saviour for now. Thanks.

My device always got that issue when I used my device heavily usage,especially when my device get hot/warm
Just screen off then on to reenable back button normally
I think main point in hardware device

same problem.... just hit home button and the back button "back" alive for me
switch between launchers
well i also have that problem.i also know others with this problem.in my case restarting the launcher helps.ofcourse if u r getting both the home and back button not responding at the same time then its not possible.i get both of them not responding at the same time very very rare.at that time all i do is turn of the screen and wait a few minutes.thats all,every thing is normal again.oh one more thing i think its a good idea to keep more than one launcher installed and not making any of the default.it helps switch between them easier.switching between launcher always helps in these not respondig issues.

now i am also facing camera not connecting issue at times.
I do have that camera issue you have sir, at rare times. Is it hardware failure in the works?
don't know mate. i have this time an again on most roms, previously i thought it was due to bad sdcard. But i am facing this from past 10 days or so. The phone killed one of my 16 Gb class 6 sd cards.

Happened this morning, I noticed that my diamond2 is not responding when pressing the power button as usual... black screen!
It wakes-up in two cases:
1. soft reset with the stylus.
2. removing the battery and putting it back then pressing the power button.
This happens after I leave it turned off for 5 minutes. It is working fine as long as I don't turn it off. When it is off 5 minutes then no response!
Note: I am using the latest htc rom.
Don't know if this is a software or hardware problem. Any help is much appreciated.
I have actually had a fairly similar problems with my TD2. Not regular and not at spercific times like after 5 minutes but there have been times when my screen doesn't want to turn back on, the device is still on because it still make some of the regular sounds, eg the ping on the home button but the screen is dead.
Like you it will only wake again after a battery out reset, sometimes after several attempts.
I'm pretty sure this is hardware related as like you i'm on an official rom. The first time this happened was after using the phone as a modem and it got quite hot so i think perhaps heat is loosening the connection to the screen, only a guess though so any other opinions welcome.
After trials for 8 hours, I figured out a work around.
I Forced the mobile to work in the GSM only band, from that moment, it is back to normal... 3G is important to me, but I think I will wait until the WinMobile 6.5 is out for our TD2... may be this will solve the issue!
Hard reset it at least once..... That may take care of the freezing issue.

This one also did not solve the problem. Any other suggestions!
Problem solved
As I guessed, it was a network error and problem sovled after changing my Sim Card and getting a new updated one from the Service Provider!
Now my TD2 can sleep well and get back whenever called
6.5 is out, has been out for a while now for the TD2...What are you waiting for, might solve this issue...gogogo!

I am afraid I have to bump the thread.. I received my device from the HTC service with a new 6.5 ROM installed, and I started having this problem. The deviced sleeps and does not react to pressing Power button, neither to pulling the stylus. The only way how to wake it is to remove the battery and switch it on again. Any idea how to solve this?

My TD2 starts the same problem . After some standby time the power button stops working. I tryed to re-flash ROMs , Hard Reset, Change the battery, and nothing solve the problem. The Power Button not working! The only way is soft reset... Any idea?
This is referred to as the "Standby of Death"
The only fix I am aware of is to flash a custom ROM.
hello guys. there is no need to flash a new rom. i had same issue, but hard reset and backup restore helped me. try this on your phone. for back-up, use sk tools

I have been having this weird problem for over a month now.
Virtual Button gets stuck as if im touching it rapidly. it happens randomly too. for example, after a reboot i was using xda app. After hitting "back" button, its button backlight goes off and doesnt respond. Everything else still works but the button gets stuck like that for 20second.
Sometimes when im watching a movie without hording it, quick option pops up as if i have pressed the button next to home button.
anyone else with this issue???
I have 2.1 stock rom uptodate with kies, ryan lag fix, and realook screen protector on it.

This just started happening to me (literally 15 seconds ago) and I want to find out what's going on.
+1
same thing happens to me. But after pressing the central button, the buttons reappear. strange weird
I do not install any lagfix or change the rom, I have my Samsung Galaxy S as a wine factory
I just started to have exactly the same issue with my Vibrant.
Any follow up on this?
Well, one thing i wanna ask you guys is that how many apps do you have installed on your system? Im actually having less of this symptom these days as i have uninstalled dozens of software. Not sure if that was the issue tho.
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
I deleted few apps which I installed in last few days and so far so good....but its just few minutes of use yet!
Specifically deleted "Noled".
Still getting lag with BACK button. Though it happens once or twice a day....very weird!
I have been using Samsung Vibrant for 3 months now and this problem just started two days back.
I'm having problems with buttons going off by themselves now. Browsing the internet or writing a message, the menu pops up by itself; Its annoying and its starting to get worse. I'm starting to wonder if I should trade in my phone; this is my third phone.
// galaxy s
I too have this exact same issue with my i9000m. Stock rooted rom with voodoo lagfix. Uninstalled everything, factory reset, clear cache, unroot - nothing fixes it. I have a replacement phone on backorder that will be replaced no questions asked thankfully.
Sounds like it's a somewhat common problem.
now this is getting irritating! seems like an issue with only Bell version I9000M. Couldn't find this problem any where else on web.
did a hard reset and before loading any apps..... played around with phone and found the same lag with back button!
After looking at your replies, it seems like these two factors are causing this strange button lag:
+Bell Mobility
+2.1 Éclair
Can we confirm please? Are you all using Bell & 2.1 with the issue?
Hopely Froyo can fix this issue. My phone was alright for couple of weeks but it came back worse than ever!
I’m starting to hate Samsung more than ever for the lag of updates & lies.
it might be only with some phones
i'm on i9000m as well, 2.1 stock, but i do not have the button problem you guys are describing.

AllGamer, I think you're the lucky one when it comes to your Galaxy. I'm curious if this issue happens to phones running custom roms or the official froyo release.
On stock firmware i9000m and OCLF with root. Im getting a huge lag (10-15 seconds) whenever I hit my home button. Using launcher pro but the problem only popped up yesterday.
Checked watchdog and it only shows 4mb free BUT task manager shows 65mb free. Any thoughts?

You're not the only ones with the issue. Look at this guy using a Bell SGS on youtube (apologies if this is one of you guys )
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBe0txXobwY
Also, its not just the Bell SGS, my AT&T Captivate does it on the Menu key and its very very annoying. Theres a similar thread in the captivate forum and no doubt, on in every SGS forum as they all use the same touch panel.
If its very common, which seems to be the case, could it be related to dust ingress into the touch panel?
Disabled Quickdesk (glcery handy app), left the office early, and now everything works great. Not sure which one worked....
I was getting a black screen for 5-10 seconds every time i pressed the home button. Anyone else with quickdesk issues? Suggestions?

I factory reset my phone and then un-rooted it just for the sake of testing out some ideas. It didn't help at all and the problem persisted for awhile until I found something interesting;
If you are having the buttons 'stick' or malfunction, go to recovery mode via 3-button. Once you are in there, start pressing your soft keys (I did this for 10 minutes straight when my buttons were sticking).
Tell me how your buttons respond, do they stick or not? We could determine if it's software or hardware.

I thought the buttons didnt respond in recover mode...
They light up and respond to touches; if you press the menu key it actually removes and restores the recovery screen.

So I am currently running Apex 7.0 Update 1 Rom and recently I have been having an issue with my home button. Basically every time I unlock my phone my home button sporadically keeps pressing it self for no reason, and the only way I am able to stop it is by hitting either the back button several times or the search button. It also happens randomly while I am using my phone to browse the internet or play music. I noticed that this also occurred while i was on Serendipity 7 so I do not think it is a ROM based issue. Has anyone encountered encountered the same issue? Is there a fix for it? Any help would be great Thanks.

This happened to mine while I still had the stock rom on it. AT&T took it back, no questions asked and replaced it. I would suggest going back to stock and calling AT&T. I assume you're still within your one-year window.
As a bonus, my GPS was horrible on my first handset, but my second was has been perfect since day one, no matter what rom I've been on.

Try putting your phone in a bag of rice for a while. If the button is freaking out, there's a chance it may have some moisture in the phone that's causing problems, and the rice will draw that moisture out.
Hey guys,
I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but the back and menu buttons stop working suddenly. This has happened to me twice. A simple On and Off fixes this, but I wanna know if theres a proper fix for it? My phone is rooted with the stock ROM "KKA". Anyone else experienced this?
My phone is NOT rooted with the stock ROM "KKA" and suffers the same problem.
Mone rom is rocket v17 , i got the same problem 2nd time.AND screen didn't wake up.
I have had this issue once so far, rooted with official Arabic Rom. does anyone have a solution?
had to restart the phone to bring it back to normal.
Read on Androidnz blog that this happens sometimes using spen with button press for using menu features like pulling up menu or back button etc.
I'm rooted, standard ROM, rarely use the SPen (haven't got around to understanding what I can do with it). I've had the unresponsive Back and Menu button problems a few times - only solution I can find is to switch off and back on again.
Good to know that it's not just me, but it would be nice to find a solution.
Same issue. Stock rom. Happened to me just now and the stylus was not being used at all.
well i also have that problem. i also know others with this problem.in my case restarting the launcher helps.ofcourse if u have both home and back button not responding at the same time then its not possible.i get both of them not responding at the same time very very rare.at that time all i do is turn of the screen and wait a few minutes.thats all,every thing is normal again.oh one more thing i think its a good idea to keep more than one launcher installed and not making any of the default.it helps switch between them easier.switching between launcher always helps in these not respondig issues.
I read already that a few ppl had this problem with different ROMs. I never had it before today. I switched the screen on and it looked normal but I couldn't do anything. I could swich the screen off again and tryed to press the power button long, OK shoutdown menu apeared but as the touch screen didn't respond I couldn't select anything. Well I pulled the battery out and it started normal, works good again.
Maybe I never have this problem again, but if it apears again might canging the kernel help or is it a ROM problem? I had this problem with JellyBam 4.1 so I could just use a different CM10 kernel.
BTW as I pulled the battery I have no log, but there might be a change to still get that log with ADB because the phone was still running just no touch response and that means (nearly) unuseable. I just have no clue how to do it, if it is posible could somebody tell me how to get that log?
Before pull out battery, try hold both Vol + and Power button until the phone restart (if it can, if not, then, you can pull out battery and forget the logcat ^^)

This appears to be a common P970 bug with 4.04+ ROMS. Loss of touch control, and long-pressing the power button brings up the shutdown menu which you can't access.
GB/2.3.4 ROMs don't have this bug. I'm not aware of any fix, save reverting to GB.

OMG somebody is still replying to that old post, over a year old, I don't even use that phone anymore, may last year I got my S3.
As I said, it only happend to me once with the JellyBam 4.1 ROM, I didn't gave to mutch to that problem with JellyBam, cause it was not the only one. That ROM was bs and didn't stayed long on my phone. It had everything, but nothing worked.
A lot GB and ICS ROMs worked well and even most of the CM ones worked rather good, they where just to power hungry. I liked all the Zeus ROMs, especially IZS. IZS is LG 4.0.4 based and was by fare the one I liked the most.

I shouldn't have replied to you. It's an old post. I should have targeted the latest post in the thread.
i think its hardware issue,,if i press and hold a little while on upper screen (right beside lg logo) touch screen became normal again. but sometimes need to hold on there when touch not work again. a member on this forum call it a flex issue of the touchscreen.
anyone know how much cost to replace it with new flex to fix this issue?
