Guyz, I have problem with the physical back button. I need to push hard to make it responsive.
Very hard to use it when I'm not aware.
I know I can use soft buttons and I'm always using the ROM with soft buttons, or using Button Savior. It's really save me.
Just want to ask, can I repair it on the Samsung Service Center?
How much it would costs?
I'm at Indonesia, if it helps.
ouwh, i have the same problem, but i already used to it now haha, is all lilg back button gradually will not function? lol
of course you can bring it to samsung sevice center
mayb its better to buy a new device than spend money our phone...just sayin :/
Lucky I have never faced such problem in my pop . If you device is under warranty get it repaired and if not then it probably isn't worth it .

I'd suggest you make a full backup and hard reset the device in order to make sure its not a hardware problem. If it works fine after a hard reset, you'll know its something you installed relatively recently.
I did a hard reset.nothing changed.then i flashed a different ROM.But still i am facing the problem.
Try the following:
Get a can of canned Air and blow it on the button as it might move any debris that are there. Just make sure that the phone is off and the battery is out. KEEP THE AIR STREAM AWAY FROM THE SCREEN! If any of the propellant escapes while you spray, it can freeze the LCD. Just slide it open and stick some paper on top of the screen. Wait a few moments before you switch the device back on
If this doesn't work, flash the Kaiser with its original ROM and SPL just in case there is an odd interaction somewhere. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418375
If nothing of the above work, you have two options:
a. If the device is in warranty, return it and get it fixed or replaced. Make sure is has its original ROM/SPL loaded before you do.
b. If the device is out of warranty/you don't care about the warranty, you can try to open it up and see if something is blocking the switch. There are instructions floating around here somewhere.
EDIT: Added warning regarding the propelant and the LCD
Any update here? My tilt is doing the exact same thing
alt236 pretty much said all there was to it. Hard reset, restore stock ROM, try blowing the switch, if all fails send for repair.
Did all of the above and the cost of repair is not worth it. Time to toss my kaiser I guess
Okay, my power button went out, which seems from previous posters that it spells the end of the phone. However I pryed mine out, and am SOMETIMES able to get my power button to respond by sticking a knife in there.
My question is can anyone get my an NBH that remaps my power key (or can I make one myself) to another key? I'm not sure what key would be best, I'm guessing power/back, knowing that I'd no longer have the ability to go back, but I only need the work around until the end of July when I can get a new phone... Thanks.

if only there was a Zimage of the super old keymap around
Do you mean a button on the top of the phone?
I got a Polaris (so maby this is not helpful).
But if you got some knowledge with hardware and got calm hands you maby can open your phone.
I had the same problem and my button was broken off from the mainboard. But it was really easy using a soldering iron to fix it.
.......
You should consider this as a possible solution... Its not to hard to open the phone and soldering isnt that hard either. Maby you got a friend that can do this. Or someone in your city does repairs of this kind (each electrican should be able to) its just fixing 4 dots on a 2x2mm big button..

I have it open already... I'm guessing I solder this button to the metal piece... this is pretty precise work but I'm going to try it, nothing to lose...
Well hell, I got it on there, but it's shorted, the power button is always down and I can't figure out how to fix it... I don't understand how this button works as even the design of it makes no sense.
Ok, so I never got it, pretty sure my switch is bad... I can short it out, and use the power button so I have wires sticking out, I'm still looking for an NBH that will let my move my power button to something else... like maybe long hold volume up?
Wonder if it's possible to do something with they keylayout files?
dzo?

Actually, the perfect power button would be the d-pad center button as I don't think I've EVER hit it before...
If someone can help me try to change it, I'd appreciate it. I know the method above won't work as the Vogue gets it's keymap from the kernel. I did some searches for unsungboxer but never found where it was described how to edit the keymap. All I know is it supposedly requires linux.
Sorry if this has been posted / asked before.
i did search first to check, but i found nothing.
Anyway under the back cover of the SGS in between the camera and sim card, there is a tiny button ( i think)
is this some sort of reset button ?? im so curious to press it but im scared of the consequences lol. I had never noticed it until earlier. and im surprised to see there are no topics about this.
anyway if it is a reset button (or an opening to another dimension) is it a hard reset or a soft reset.
i also noticed whilst the phone is off, pressing the DOWN volume button ONLY whilst powering on, also takes you to some other recovery mode, for resetting only weird, i never knew that. just thought id share it !
Sounds like that is some secret repair center-only reset.
I certainly wouldn't push it, who knows what would happen. Your phone could transform into a yellow Camero, or the Samsung Signal could beam out of it and Captain Samsung could swoop in to kick your ass for violating warrenty.
Besides which, even mentioning it will probably now give rise to a few dozen "I pissed the sekret button and BRIKED MY FONE.....HAAALLLLPPPPPPP!!!!!" threads.
Forget you ever found it.

Been posted before but i dont know where .
Seem to remember it resets your phone .
Possibly its in a 3 button recovery post .
Damn and now i just briked my phone again wrong flash .
jje
Found this .
From XDA
What to do
- Take of the back case of your SGS, inbetween the camera and the speaker, you will see a little circular hole...
- Take a pin/pen and poke it...
- Hold the hole pressed in and press the 3 button combo for download/recovery mode

it didnt do anything, i dont even think its a button. it didnt push in. tried it with phone on/off in recovery/download and my phone is still alive with all my data.
maybe its just to put fear into people like it did to me lol
Welcome.
When removing the suit case, I lost my volume button ... This makes a lot of problems. Long endured without a button but I decided to go look for him. Here the problem is increasing because I can not find it, google sends me to the http://www.parts4repair.com/volume-button-for-lg-optimus-4g-hd-p880-black/
Well out of stock ... I was looking on even broken 4x but it's too expensive. Even if I wanted to sell the phone it's hard without a button. . Help me find the button
Thanks

Hi,
Unable to use the power button properly. It seems to be stuck. Does somebody know the price to replace the same. Phone is out of warranty. Location is Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

It is a bit tight. Unable to press it properly for it to register a press. Sometimes when we press it too hard it registers multiple presses.
Go to asus or any repair shop to get your button out... if it comes without tearing down phone it will be cheap..((100 Indian rupees) if they have to teardown back panel then it will be costly (900-1000 indian rupees).. make sure to check every function after getting your device repaired.
Lil story
I faced Power button and air trigger issue 6 months after purchasing phone. I play pubg and my air trigger stopped firing in between no matter how hard i press L1 L2 (air trigger left - right). and one day power button got stuck. I was able to use that but it was stuck in phone.
Fortunately it was in warranty period and got both my problem resolved. Asus replaced my Screen IDK why ..but they told me it was the screen due to my air trigger was not working properly (Strange).. and the replaced my power button assembly too..
Got mine repaired for 550 INR
