Before I return my z3 tomorrow anyone know if there's a fix for the camera button to work again. It worked for the first 2 days now it's not working. I've got the settings set up for it. But nothing. I've tried all settings for the button. Safe mode and restart. I've even deleted my most recent apps. Please help if it's not fixed by tomorrow evening I'm returning it.
Please and thank you for all your help.

Also I was using a tudia slim case. Do you think that might have messed it up. Thanks

My exchanged unit works. Must have just been a bad batch.

Hey, so I got my nexus s a few days ago and love it, how ever I've been having some problems with it.
Randomly the soft buttons on the phone, mainly the search key stars pressing its self. As in I'm not touching the phone but the button is being pressed.
I'm running cm7, don't really think its a rom thing but any help would be great.

I have the same problem with my Home button. Drives me crazy!

That used to happen to mine too, I found that by booting into recovery and wiping data and wiping cache and dalvik cache fixed that problem.
Give it a try and let me know if it also works for you guys.

Ya I reset everything and really flashed. Still doing the same thing.

Long thread on it at google support. If you have an I9020a, then it's a known "bug". it is associated to the modem and only happens when on 3G

Maybe put it back to stock and exchange it for a new one. Tell them the phone is defective.
Ive flashed the older radio and it seemed to help, do I still have warrenty if I got the phone from the U.S.?

The problem exists I the kb2 modem also though not has bad.
The warranty is not good across the border your will ned to ship it to the US then have it serviced from there. Pointless in my opinion since it is a software problem.

I guess ill just learn to live with it then, thanks for all they help guys.

Good morning everyone...
Hope all is well..
My cousin's S3 is unrooted. Yesterday he said it froze up on him... No buttons work, however, if you take the battery out and put it back in, the phone will power back up, comes all the way on up to the home screen, but nothing works, no buttons, no reaction from touching the screen or anything.
Verizon is blaming it on Nova.
I know better, Nova is flawless in my opinion.
Anyone experienced this problem? know of any fixes?

He may need to do a factory reset.

There may be an option in recovery to get to download mode, from there he can Odin back to stock.
Buttons not working doesn't sound like a problem a rom can cause. Did it get wet, fall? Did it start to update and it was interrupted? Curious.

Stock recovery should be able to perform a factory reset. Try that and if it doesn't work read up on Odin to go back completely to stock. If that fails you are likely looking at hardware failure. My guess is the factory reset will fix it for you.
I'd try to go into stock recovery by pressing power, home and volume up buttons....wipe davlick cache

Anybody else have this issue? It's as if its very sensitive too. I can barely touch the power button and my phone screen will shut off, but immediately come back on. Also if you actually press the button, the screen will shut off than come back on. Anyone else have this kind of issue?
Yeah this happened to mine just two days ago. I ended up pulling the button off entirely and using the phone without it. Super frustrating.
Power button failure is a common known issue with S3 devices. Take it back in most cases they replace the device.

Not if its over a year old. The warranty is only one year.

Feeling a bit noobish but I can't seem to take a screen shot..... every other phone I had I could just got volume down and power and it would work.
I'm thinking maybe wanam or gravity box screwed with something when I changed some settings.
Any help would be appreciated thanks

Have a completely stock T-mobile Note Edge and recently been noticing that when I flip through my home screens (2) that the font is real small then pops to regular size (the font under the app icons) also the calendar widget goes back to regular size (that's only a tad smaller than normal)
I tried getting a screenshot of this happening but flipping through home screens and holding down the power and home button fast enough is a wee bit tricky.
Anyone else getting this issue? Seems to happen like 8 times out of 10. Running 5.0.1
Sent from my SM-N915T using Tapatalk
Yes. Same here with stock, unrooted 5.0.1. My girlfriend also has this problem on her Note Edge and she's with Sprint.
Been searching for any reference to the issue online, you are the first person I've heard mention it.
I don't know how to fix this but I wish I did. I've factory reset, wiped update cache, uninstalled apps. I'm out of ideas short of getting a replacement. [emoji29]

I'm thinking it's a software bug.
Sent from my SM-N915T using Tapatalk
Not sure what significance this has, but I noticed that if I go to developer options, scroll to GPU rendering profile and enable 'show onscreen as bars', for me this issue is longer reproducible.
Could you test this out on your device to see if you get the same results? It could be helpful.
If this is a software issue, I wonder if using Odin to write a fresh copy of 5.0.1 to the device would fix it. Have you tried this?
Sent from my SM-N915T using Tapatalk
Still happens
Sent from my SM-N915T using Tapatalk
Huh. That's interesting. I'm kinda hoping it is software related. I still haven't figured a way to permanently fix it.
Did you try odin'ing fresh stock firmware back onto the device? I haven't tried that yet. Or what else have you tried?

I have a T-mobile Note Edge and I am having same exact issue. i think the problem is with TouchWiz. I downloaded Nova launcher and it works fine now..I would be glad to get rid to Nova launcher and go to to Touchwhiz if the problem is solved.
