[Q] Power button very hard to press - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed that the Power button on my Shield Tablet is very hard to press. I either have to press it quite hard or use my finger nails bump it.
The volume buttons are also hard to press, but not so much.
Does anyone else have these problems?

Known issues, unfortunately.

Stuck Power Button

I have an HTC FUZE and I dropped it in a puddle of water and now the power button is constantly activated even though I am not touching the button. The button still clicks fine but again, the power button is always active. I cannot manually put my phone to sleep, nor can I turn it off using the power button.
My question is, could I remap the power button (long and short) to another button say the PPT button?
thanks
help anyone?
I had a similar problem with my first Fuze and had to get a refurbished replacement from AT&T. In my case the sticking power button caused constant rebooting of the phone. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but I was unable to do anything to unstick the button.
if the power button is just nt working, you can still put your phone to sleep with third paty softwares like psShutXp. But I don't think it is possible to remap it to a different hardware key afaik.

Trouble hitting soft keys

I don't know if this is my Maxx or if this is because I have an Otterbox Defender case on it but is anyone else having issues when hitting the soft keys? Often when I hit the Home button the Google Now icon comes up and sometimes the back button takes a couple of presses to register a press. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Sent from my GT-N5110
Yes, the latest update changed the Google Now launch behavior. It used to be that you had to long press the home button to get the google now arc to appear. Now it appears if you slide up on any of the capacitive keys, or press just above the printed part of the key, but below the display. It's a bit of a pain. I noticed if I press back or recent apps keys and the roll my finger up a bit, the google now arc appears.
I could see a case like that possibly affecting where you press the keys.
You aren't alone. I've noticed more than a few times that I had to hit the buttons repeatedly just to get them to work. Not every time, but enough to make me wonder if I was going crazy.
Agreed. The buttons are now a pain since the new update in my opinion.

Button Problem

On my S7(Exynos) Yateley GU46 UK, the power button is hard to press, it does not click the button. The louder button is also hard to press, after about 10 times press it goes better. Does anyone even those problems?

Replacement Power Button

My power button doesn't have the feedback anymore when pressing down like it does normally. Sometimes I have to press it again to have it actually work.
Has anybody ever replaced the power button? Is there soldering involved?

The keys press themselves automatically when I move my fingers closer or holding it.

have anybody face this issue? when i holding my phone, the capacitive buttons are being pressed although i am not touching them. Especially, capacitive button on the right, is being holded pressed.
i think the buttons are too much sensitive. is there any way to change the sensitivity of the capacitive buttons?
how can i solve this issue?
Sometimes i have the same problem.
