So my uncle was flashing stuff into his phone (GT-i9100) as he does from time to time, and suddenly the back button stopped working.
He continued to flash things in order to fix it. He actually did it but as soon as the back button was fixed the home button "broke", apparently caused by something similar. I guess it's not a hardware problem.
He gave the phone to me in case I could come up with a solution.
I have already flashed all the stock stuff (2.3.5) with Odin, but the home button remains dead. Even in recovery mode and all that (I can't even put the device in download mode with the famous combination, I had to do it with ADB).
So the question is, is the home button recoverable? If it is, how?? If not, can someone explain to me how did it died??
Thanks a lot.

If your Model is i9100, you will get wrong answers in i9000 forum .
But, home button, would fail, when you flash wrong ROMS

Try to hard reset your X1 as this:
1. turn off the phone
2. Hold both right and left buttons (the ones right under the screen)
3. press power button, while still holding the others
Hope it will help

I'm following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295068 and I can't go on after step 12 because my computer won't get drivers not even from windows update. I searched the forums but I can't find them for HD7. What should I do? I wanted to avoid posting a thread to annoy but I searched before.

Down volume key
@Glaphan
I lost my 1 hour finding the answer of the same question, well in this tutorial that step which define how to enter in Boot loader is wrong in my eyes.
You have to press DOWN volume button with start button to enter in the 3 color screen which is boot loader. then your computer must find the driver correctly.
I was using the UP volume button, by which i cant see the 3 colors and the computer was unable to find the driver.
Hope this will work for you.

my phone is gt-i9000 but I did a big mistake I upgraded with wrong firmware ( for gt-i9003) and now my phone is completely dead I can reboot it and also I can log in into download mode or recovery mode and nothing happen when I put the usb cable
please anyone can help me and what should I do ?
If download mode is still available, then try to flash the phone with a 3parted firmware with repartition ticked and 512pit selected via odin.
Please see my post i quote below, there you will find a restock kit which includes all you need. Just expand the zip and follow the quide in the txt file.
If odin does not recognice your device, I would first check via tast manager, wheather kies is completly stopped. No running processes anymore in the background?
And then try another usb port, this also could help.
Good luck and much success!
rodman01 said:
You can also try it with slappys rescuepack, which i always use, when i have or want to restock. Has all you need in that zip. and also a todo or guide.
Perhaps ou give it a try?

Hi everyone,
Either I'm quite possibly the dumbest person on the planet, or hopefully there are other novices who haven't a clue how to update this phone beyond Firmware 2.1.
What I can find on the net is a whole lot of instructions for doing various part of the procedure, but nothing step-by-step from start to finish, in English. Just when I think I'm on to something, there's an instruction to root the phone, or backup the data on the phone, and then I have to hunt around for THAT procedure, get lost in the process, and the whole thing gets too damn hard.
Can anyone please throw the procedure together so that I can walk through it? There are obviously many benefits to updating this phone, but I'm so afraid of bricking it I'm apprehensive to even start without the entire process in front of me.
Hoping someone can help!
Cheers,
Jon

Actually this can be done automatically by using the software samsung designed to be used to update their phones, Its called KIES, it also has the drivers needed for connecting your phone to PC, so if you don't have it on your PC, download and install it and let it update your i9000T to the latest ROM, just follow instructions, given by it.
