I have been using GEN Y 6.1 rom quite awhile now. Lately, my volume buttons dont work. When pressed, my phone bascially freezes and sometimes soft resets by itself when I press the volume buttons. I have not changed anything recently, WHAT GIVES? Please help me.

Yesterday I unlocked following olimpro steps.
But since I did that my up volume button is not working fine.
It keeps pressed all the way up. Pressing the down volume button it makes the volume down but a lil bit later it will be pressed up (with the annoying sound that makes when you press up or down)
I think is more a software issue rather than a hardware cause I press both volume buttons and they feel O.K.
I want to know if one of you guys experienced this issue before. And is kinda funny cause it was working fine until I ran the olimpro unlocker. I'm not telling was his excellent solution but maybe some registry keys were affected.
I've read through several posts regarding resetting my HTC Touch pro but nothing is working. My touch screen stopped working - it doesn't do anything when I tap the icons on the screen. The keys still work but the screen is not working.
With the power off I tried holding down the volume button while pressing the round "enter" button and then pressed the power on button. The only message I get is "you are about to power off the device, you will lose any information not saved". I've also tried holding down the down volume button while holding the enter button and then using my stylus hit the "reset" button on the bottom. This didn't do anything either - I hate this phone!
The phone is on the Alltel network.
How I hard reset my 6850 HTC Touch Pro
Using the recommended method I was not able to hard reset my phone after installing a custom ROM I maid using PPC Kitchen. But what I tried that did work was, Phone off (not just asleep), holding the volume down button, while holding down the round "enter" button, while holding down the power button, then also holding down the reset button holding down all these buttons worked. I did not have to hold them for long till the text instructions came up and I followed them. Let me know if this works for any of you.

I had the same issue. And it did not work for me either. I found this alternative way to hard reset from another site.....
Start/Settings/System and find Clear Storage and that will hard reset your device.

I have a weird problem where the power and volume buttons don't work when the screen is locked. I know it is not a hardware issue because I had this problem for a couple days, then the power button started working again perfect the next day and now its back to not working. When the screen is unlocked, the volume keys work perfect and controls volume as it normally would. I downloaded some apps to enable the volume keys to work as an unlock button, but they fail to work.
As a last resort, I was going to flash a new rom to see if it would help, however when I boot into recovery mode, the volume keys don't work and i cant move up and down through the options. In addition, I've noticed that when I do a battery pull and put the battery back in, the phone automatically boots up as if the power button was held down.

Your power button is failing. It is a hardware issue. Send it for repair.

Do you have an idea of why the volume buttons aren't working though as an unlock button with apps tho? I also question whether it is a hardware problem because this has happened in the past before and then suddenly the power button works again perfect for months. It is just very annoying for me to sit here and hope for it to start working again.

It's a known issue that when the power button stay stuck the other buttons don't work. It sucks, but that's what it is. Nexus S always had this power button problem and usually you can send it to samsung to get it fixed. Some people have tried to fix it themselves without too much luck...
I bought galaxy s3 3 weeks ago and i found this problem. With stock 4.1.2 XELLA and original samsung headphones, sometimes,randomly, button on the headphone dont respond to press. After 1 or 2 plug-out,plug-in or a restart they come back to normal. The mic still work even when the buttons are unresponsive. Anyone had this problem? i dont want to hard reset the phone
sometimes that happens to me and if i hold down VOL DOWN on the phone for about 2 seconds, then press VOL UP it goes back to normal
i made an update from xella to emc2, made a hard reset, problem still here. The buttons only response to long press, like answer button that start google now. I try another headphones and still do the same. No solution for that?
