broken touchpad / dpad button

my dpad button for right is not working anymore.
when i press it, i hear a errorclick sound, but no action.
in the worms game, it also does not work.
i flashed a new rom, but the problem persisted.
is it easy to fix/clean this button, or should it be repaired?
i tested the buttons with the navdbgtool.exe
it shows that the touch functionality still works, but pressing the button does nothing.

[Q] Red Button & Power Button

I'm trying to remap my End Call button so I can use it to "Go Home", and End Calls. I don't want that button to put my phone to sleep, just the side power button. I want to also free up my IE button for use with anything else I might want it bound too.
In my ventures to do so, I've noticed that both the End Call button and Power button are mapped to the same keymap. I had thought I had changed the Power button but when I tried to end a call, the red button just puts the phone to sleep, which is exactly what I wanted my side power button to do while I'm on a call.
Is this a bug, or a "feature" in the kernel?
im pretty sure its part of the kernel, it has been there since the donut days (the old keymap was crazy volume up was the menu button, volume down was back)
it is partly due to the fact that the vogue has very few buttons, the kaiser was a device that just worked with our kernels at first.
i think even changing the buttons in atools will not change the kernel key stacks like your asking for
although l1q1d being the creator of Atools would know a lot better than I would
I've been looking at the querty.kl file, trying to understand the keymaps, and what they're associated too... Anyway of running a program that captures key presses and prints out the associated keymap for that key press?
Hey! Post from the grave!
Did you have any luck ??
I was also hoping someone knew how to go about this.
I know there are ways to remap keys, but I'm stuck in a browser, and all I can do it put my kaiser to sleep.
I even tried atools keyboard remapper to no avail (awesome tool btw).
It's no fun when you can't exit applications d:
I don't mean to double post, was just hoping someone could answer this.
Krazy-Killa did you have any luck?

Home and back button not functioning properly

Hiya guys,
My home and back buttons don't show any form of backlight. Also when I double tap my home button my recent apps don't appear. When I just press the buttons once, they work like normal. Is there any way to bring the buttons back to normal.
I have a rooted phone with the stock rom.
Thanks in advance

maybe try a custom rom like ViperOne. it could be a hardware issue also

disable hardware buttons? (recent/back)

im using Ultimate Dynamic Navbar because when i replaced the screen on my note 4 i accidentally got too close to the buttons and cut the recent and back buttons. so they no longer work. i completely removed the buttons since i cut them. everything else works fine but for some reason when im charging the phone something is causing the back or recents button to be pressed. this only happens when im charging the phone and have the screen on. how can i disable the buttons? i already tried to do the Generic.kl commenting out (putting a # infront of each line) but that did not help (unless im not entering the the # on the correct line) and it didnt help. i still get the recent apps while charging the phone and the screen is on. anyone know of a way to disable it with another method?

Well I know that an xposed module called Xposed Additions can do it. Hopefully that will work in your case.

i tried gravity box for Lollipop on the PACMAN rom which kinda helps. the thing is that the buttons seem to have swapped so im guessing its because of the rom. before it kept pressing the recents button now its pressing the back button. i also was able to see what was going on action wise as in long presses or double taps with gravity box. it seems that long presses is the most frequent cause of this issue but i also get a few double taps and single taps randomly. i tried to select no action for these events on the back button with half luck. gravity box does not have a do nothing action so the only thing i could do was do a custom action without selecting an app. but when it gets triggered i get a toast saying no such app, due to no app selected in gravity box. this is something ill bring up to the devs of gravity box. ill check out your suggestions and will reply back with the results, THANKS FOR THE REPLY!

Yeah. Seems Xposed Additions will work then. It has actions for both Click and Long Press for all the hardware buttons with the Screen On/Off. It's basically a mod to do just that...remap the buttons or disable.
I use it to disable the Home button while the screen is off. Also to use the volume buttons for skipping songs while screen is off.

the only issue with it was that it would not save the settings when i restarted. but i did use it to see what key value back was and put a # in it and restarted. seems to have worked so far. i wonder why the additions wont stick after a reboot. hopefully if this works ill be able to choose which on screen buttons to select from the pacmans/gravity box or ultimate dynamics. each has its pros and cons.

Note 3 capacitive buttons not working properly

So a while ago my screens LCD cracked and stopped working so forward a few months and I get a new screen, and everything was fine except for the fact that my menu and back buttons don't work. Because everyone I press the menu button, the little right click like options op open but then a second later the a finder opens. Everytime I trap the back button it does nothing, but if I tap the menu key then the back back button really fast then the menu stays open, I also noticed that if I press the back button with my s pen then it works.
I just really want to have the original features of my phone if anyone is having the same problem as me or just knows how to fix it please respond. Thank you
