I installed build the 1/26 build of CM11 on my P3113 and everything is working perfectly EXCEPT the "Back Button" soft key. The last build I was running was (I think) 01/11 and it worked fine, but now no matter what I've done (cleared input setting, full pave, etc) it just won't do ANYTHING when I hit the back button.
The tablet DOES notice that I've hit the button, the highlight appears and any pull-down notification is rolled back up, but no ACTION is taken (e.g. it won't get back to the previous screen within whatever application is running).
Any ideas if this is a new bug, or something that I should be looking for?

Guys, since several versions of (mainly Energy) Roms (with Manila 2.1 as well as with 2.5) I have this problem: When I press the left phone button the phone does nothing instead of jumping into the phone mode. I need to switch it of (display switch on top of the phone) and on again, then it mostly works. Also the home button and the back button often scroll through the tabs instead of jumping directly to the home screen or ... Anybody else with this issue or - even better - with a solution?

I have been having exactly the same problem for a few months. I was first thinking a hardware problem, perhaps the button contacts got munged (too much kevtris?). But it is very intermittent. Sometimes the problem lasts for a day, other times just a few minutes. Summary of intermittent problems:
Home button non-responsive. When running an app or in Sense/Manila/TouchFlo, pressing home does nothing.
Home button switches to the left Sense tab when in Sense. When viewing email, switches to a different email account. [Obviously being interpreted as a left-arrow.]
Back button non-responsive. When running an app, pressing back does nothing. Which makes it more difficult to navigate around.
Short-press send button non-responsive. Doesn't display dialer either when trying to start a new call, or returning to the dialer in a call.
Long-press send button non-responsive. Mapped to my task manager so should start that.
Possibly related - When reading emails zooming text size using the scroll wheel only works about half the time.
The PTT, volume, and power buttons always work fine.
I haven't noticed whether sleep/unsleep (short-press power button) helps.
Soft-reset sometimes helps, not always.
I don't hard-reset unless upgrading the ROM; this has survived across three different versions of EnergyROM.
I have had my phone since Nov 2008 and it was free, so I figure I got my money's worth.

To orkan95: I have exact same problem as you: the "Answer", "Back", "Home" buttons sometimes scroll through different tabs, what's even worse for me is that when I open some item list (e.g. Emails, RSS ), it automatically scrolls up and down randomly (my finger wasn't even touch the phone) .
This has been a very annoying problem since Day 1 I had flashed my HTC Touch Pro with custom roms. I had been googling for a solution for this issue for several months now and no luck at all and would really appreciate if any experts in this forum could answer to this issue. Thanks!
FYI, I personally don't think it's the hardware's problem as it worked well with the original official Rom (6.1). The problem only emerged when I flashed with any Custom Roms.
Hi all, I want to try Cyanogenmod 7 (latest nightly of course), but I realized that the end button (red end call button) behavior is different from the stock rom. The stock rom behavior is:
if not in home screen -> go to home screen
if in home screen -> do nothing
if locked and screen turned on -> turn screen off
everything else -> do nothing
Notice that pressing the end button seems to be different than pressing the home button: if the current foreground activity does not respond, home button won't work (ANR window will show up); end button, instead, will simply go to home screen, like if it's killing the current activity. However, relaunching the closed activity restores its previous state (like when I use the home button to get away from an activity).
Cyanogenmod has stock gingerbread behavior (which should be fine, I know it's the android way), but I really would like to preserve my habits.
I already tried:
Spare parts: does not have the option I'd like
Remapping keys via keymaps: doesn't work since behavior cannot be defined using the available built-in commands
I'll get my hands dirty in the Android code if necessary (I'm a developer), but I really want to know if there is another way before looking at the source code.
Hi there,
my HTC One S (ville) fall down and the display was broken completely.
I bought myself a new a one and have build it in. While replacing the screen I screwed the Flex cable which is responsible for the hardware buttons at bottom (and the sound however).
I also got a new flex cable and replaced the old one.
1) Problem
When I restart my phone the buttons at the bottom work, until I get into lockscreen. After that they won't work anymore, I don't know why. (Only restart helps, again they work only until I got into lockscreen).
2) Workaround-Problem
So, as a workaround a decided to install CM10 to use the navigation bar (I set qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in prop.build before I flashed the rom).
Now I have the problem with the menu button. The 3-dot menu button shows up but has obviously no function. When I click on it nothing happens - I can't access any settings menu in apps.
I tried also Virtual Button App - either there the menu function does not do anything.
Of course I rooted my phone etc...
Is there something special with the HTC ONE S and the menu button function?
Thanks very much in advance,
Maik
AppDog killed my tablet's home button functionality...
For those of you unfamiliar with it, AppDog pays you a couple cents at a time for trying out new apps (pays out in Facebook credits). I had tried it on Bluestacks and it worked just fine. When I tried it on my tablet, things got all screwy. Once I installed it, it took over control of my Home buttons. The on-screen home button would bring me back to AppDog instead of to Launcher, and the hard button now acts as a "back" button instead of "home".
I uninstalled AppDog, but it didn't fix anything. The hard button still acts as a back button, and the on-screen home button now does nothing at all.
How do I restore the functionality of the home buttons? It's a huge pain to have to manually back out of whatever I'm doing (esp. when browsing the web, as I have to back through every page I've visited)
My tablet is a 7" Craig model CMP741e running ICS 4.0.3, factory rooted.
A side note, I'm not sure if this was caused by the same app, but I'm missing some options in my Settings (i.e. Dev Options doesn't show up unless I'm plugged into my PC)
I have a stock Galaxy S6 with stock ROM and no mods at all.
Problem:
The problem started couple months ago where when I tap the back capactive key it acts like it was on hold for a time so it triggers the options context menu of the current app. That would trigger on some apps most of the time, another apps will sometimes pass, sometimes have the problem.
Here is exactly what happens when I tap the back key:
Tap *Vibration to let me know the hardware received my gesture*
No action
Tap again *no vibration this time - phone trying to complete (on its own) the time needed for the key to be held to trigger the HOLD action and open the options menu on the currently active app*
After some time, option menu (eg. settings menu on the top right corner of Whatsapp for example opens up)
This exact process happens so fast, and was inconsistent so I acted as if it was never there, and after sometime, it was gone for a short period of time, until Today, the problem reoccured again but now with the home button and the recent button.. Back button is fully working now.
Home button: Triggers Google Assistant
Recent button: Triggers Split View
I restarted my phone and now it's gone, but I know it is coming back.
I think it is not a hardware issue, how do I fix that annoying issue?
