You can't. You need all your buttons functioning.

I recommend you should change your volume rocker buttons before doing anything...my friend had this problem on his previous desire c(now he has nexus 4) and he used a toothpick to press the inside buttons of the plastic...
You MAY try this method at your own risk...
But after you have rooted, you can always get a touch based recovery so you dont have to use volume rockers then!

So all my physical keys on my xperia x1 including the Volume button, the ok button, the X panel button, the pick up call button, the end call button, the two silver buttons all don't work. None of the keys on my keyboard work either.
I've been trying to hard reset but every method I've found includes holding down the volume button (which doesnt work since that button is unresponsive). I've tried the 2 silver button method along with the poking the stylus in the hard reset hole in the back of the phone but that doesnt work either since the silver buttons are unresponsive.
So now I'm looking for the Clear_Storage thing I've been reading about but I can't find it so could someone please supply me with the directory I could find it in or any other solution you can think of to help me hard reset my phone so I can flash a new ROM.
BTW I've used Hard-SPL to flash roms before, it's just this last ROM from itje got all screwy and made the buttons stop working.
Thanks, Nik
Setting > System > Clear Storage.
Sometimes Itje takes it out of his ROMs, though. You can try reflashing by pc method if it's not there.
Yea I've checked and it's not in there, how would you do it by pc?
Is it that ruu executable that you run while it's synced? For some reason
that never actually worked with my comp which is why I always resorted to the SD Card Flash method, but I can't get into the Hard-SPL loader now cause of the button problem.
Does anyone know how to hard-reset without having to use the hardware buttons, because I really need to be able to use my phone again.
Need Help =/
Next to malfunctioning buttons, is the phone starting up?
What happens, if you plug a USB cable in? If you can select ActiveSync mode, then you could easily try to re-flash another ROM image - maybe the one you have been using was corruptly downloaded or something.
Or, if you get too much of strange behaviour like this, try a stock ROM first, then another custom ROM.
It boots up and works fine as long as I stick to using the touch screen and I can USB ActiveSync it too. I know some of the older ROMs used to have an exe you could run while in ActiveSync and it would auto install but most of the new ROMs assume you're using the SD Card Method so I can't find the PC Installer app.
Alright so I managed to isntall a new version of that Firestorm Rom (3.8 I think) and my hardware buttons still don't work.
Like from the buttons that Works:
Power Button
Camera Button
Optical Joypad (only the center square)
Stuff that doesn't work:
X-Panel Button
Ok Button
Volume Button (up, down, center)
Pick up Call
Hang Up Call
Two Silver Buttons (left and right)
Left and Ride on "D-Pad"
ALL KEYBOARD KEYS
What is their left to do if a new ROM doesn't fix the problem?
what are my options for getting this fixed?
my volume keys dont work, dont know why but sometimes theyre working and sometimes not.
i have the same issue. but my g-letter button works. and all other buttons make the volume go up one notch and then down again. further more when i go into settings and the menu that controls what the buttons it only says it has a left and a right button.
have u been able to figure something out??
began working again
after a month it suddenly started to work again! dont know why or how
is a hardware problem, with your flex.
i can tell you this is hardware problem.flash your phone with orginal spl and orginal rom and send sony ericson.i had same problem.they gave me new unit after 3 months fight good luck.
no doubt, it's hardware problem..
Agree with human75, flash your x1 with stockSPL n original ROM before u send it to SE. Do it via your PC.. Goodluck bro
Dear Friends,
few days back my volume button not working at all..
i can decrease the volume but high button is not working at all. i searched for the app so that i can use the app to increase and control my HD7 properly....I have been using the phone in silent mode only for the past few days...the OS is DeepShining OS..please suggest.....thank u
Use button savior from the market. It requires root for most functions but fortunately for you volume keys work without root and on the free edition...
I am using deepshining OS ..OS is ultimate...but its just the harware button on the right hand side does not work..but lower volume works properly..I kept on pressing low button after that no volume..now the volume at 0 level
I think it's the ROM problem,try using other ROM.
no its not ROM problem
actually water fell on the mobile and sinked inside that voulme butto n
since then this is the problem,, suggest an app

Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia Z, the power button seems not working properly. May be i dropped the phone and broke some wire connection inside.
So when i press the power button, the button is not working everytime.
Is there way to wake up the phone (when the screen is black) by using the volume button?

No there is no other way,send it for a repair.
use the Q&A forum next time.
maybe installing a custom rom would let you unlock device with volume buttons.

^I'm pretty sure that's possible. Just head over to the Play Store and install "Anyunlock".
Although that's just a temporary workaround, so I'd suggest that you get it fixed soon!

Hi Guys!
I need your help here.
I dropped my MI3 and now the screen has a crack on the bottom right corner. Along with this, the menu, home and back soft keys are not working.
I plan to root my phone and enable the on screen soft keys. However, since my menu button is not working, I am unable to select "update package" and select the root file to gain root permission.
Is there a way I can root it from a different interface/method so that I can enable the onscreen soft keys later?
Please help!
Bump!
Guys! I have no updates on this!
Flash CWM..root it with supersu.. then enable nav bar

Same thing happened with me.. soft keys not working.. and menu key does not work without root. And you can't root without menu key.. simple solution.. i took a gaming mouse.. that have extra buttons. Connected it to phone.. one of the button worked as the menu key.. went to updater, pressed that button, selected roop zip file and flashed it.
Now i installed pie control and using it to access all the soft key buttons..

That sounds like a practical solution buddy! But can you please enlighten me what a game mouse is and how you established the connectivity b/w the mouse and the MI3?
Sorry for the noobish questions!

Model No. : Logitech MX518
You get back button (right click), home button (middle click), and menu button (forward button on sides)
You just have to plug it in usb charging slot using an OTG cable. OTG cable is also used to plug pendrive to your phone. If you dont have one, buy one. Its usefull. And you dont have to buy a mouse. Just go to a shop, ask him to check if it works with your phone. Do your work and say you dont need it as its incompatible with your phone. Or ask your friends if they have one. You only need mouse for like 5 sec.
use keybard with OTG cable
I had the same problem. I connected a key board to my mobile with an OTG cable and pressed the menu key on the keyboard.

the power button is 2 pieces, the part that sticks out of the case, is likely the part sticking
it can be replaced, or what I did was just pull it out, and use a pen or something to press inner switch.

I think physical button is OK, i can reboot my phone with volume down + power keys.
i installed an app for wake up my phone with volume keys. But i really think that is a soft problem because i can reboot my phone with power + volume down keys.
The sample solution is to back to other CM.
I tryed, but the bug still on all my roms et all of my roms slots
