Schizophrenic hard buttons

[Guest Graham Macleod]

A strange hardware fault, which I've been living with but might drive me to return.

The volume down and back keys seem to have become fused together. Pressing either will both lower the volume and go back. Its consistent and unavoidable. Its also annoying. I've reflashed to stock so I don't think its software. Any ideas?

Which browser are you using? On some you can re-assign hard keys to do other things like you have mentioned so perhaps you have accidentally done that. :unsure:

I'm using Dolphin, but it happens on all applications and on a couple of different roms (Corvus, Cyanogen, Modaco) after a full wipe.

I would remap the keys, but the problem is that each of the conjoined keys is generating two codes.

Stuck.

However it is very nice to have the back button where the Volume down is. That, i'd miss ;-)

Has this happened since you bought the Vega i.e. was it present on the stock build or when did it first materialize ? When you say you remap the keys how did you do that exactly?

If you haven't tried the 'Button Savior' app that might also be able to resolve matters too.

It happened after about six weeks, was working fine before. Worth mentioning that it happens in clockwork recovery too - must be hardware.

I bought button savior, but find it decreasingly useful.

All I can suggest is to back-up your apps, wipe the Vega, re-install stock 1.09 from Vega website, then 'before' reloading any apps try the stock browser and see if the hard keys are still messed up. If they are still causing issues then you'll need to return it to PC World or wherever you got it and demonstrate to them the problem. :unsure:
