Volume down button not working - Galaxy E5, E7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Suddenly my volume down button is not working on my Galaxy E5. The volume up button is working with no problems except the volume down button. The volume down button clicks normally and I hear the regular sound of it but it doesn't work.
My phone is still under warranty, Should I send it or there is something I can do before?

It worked fine after a couple of weeks, maybe there was some water or may be sweat from my pocket.

Call button and hang-up button, ... don't work

Hi,
my P3600 has a problem - pressing call and hang-up button as well as ok, menu and 2 function buttons on the top keybad do not work.
However, center and direction buttons do work.
This happened before, then worked again, now happening again.
Any ideas anyone? a HW problem or a ROM / hardspl problem? (tried different roms same thing happens)
thanks for your help.
Needs a bump
Just bumping the thread cause I have the exact same problem on my phone. I had it in my camera bag on a hiking-trip this weekend and I think either it was pressed against something or the moist got it. The center buttons still work, but I dont think its on the same connector inside.

volume buttons not working...

Anyone else get these syptoms?:
the volume control on the side, when I press the up or down once, it goes to the volume slider screen. One would expect that pressing the volume up, to move it up and then down, to move the volume down right?
Well on mine; if you press the volume button once, it goes to the volume screen ok, but if you press it again, it takes you back to the previous screen without altering the volume. The same happens for both up and down buttons.

As of today I have the exact same issue ! I installed sdkcerts.cab and FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly.cab but uninstalled and the issue is still there
have you had any luck in finding out what's causing it, not overly enthusiatic about doing a hard reset which will probably be mentioned ?
I have the same issue, after installing some apps on my new Blackstone the Volume-settings feature was gone...
Any Ideas?
regards+thx
ps: please don't tell me to hard reset ;-)
I also have sdkcerts.cab and FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly.cab installed (and many other applications), but my volume buttons work as expected. Maybe it has something to do with device lock?
Regards!

yes, just re-installed it.. same issue.. and then with setting "Volume Control = ON" it is working.
thank you
well spotted MHoefler !! all sorted now after enabling the volume in S2U, happy again
Yes, work with volume control "on" setting but, the volume control at call is locked!!
Any solution for up or down the volume at calls (with S2U2 installed)?
Regards.
You may try a hard reset.

Yes Black, I know that hardreset works but I wanna use S2U2.
It is clearly a bug in s2u2 and until it gets fixed there is not satisfactory solution unfortunately.
That seems. Just wait for new release.

I found the solution at the diamond-forum. You have to set "Don´t use the keyboard hook" at the S2U2-Settings to "ON" and the S2U2-Volume-Control to "OFF" -then all works perfect!!!
Thanks nick007, I'll try it.
EDIT: Yes, it works! And the hardware buttons does not pick up/ignore the calls.
thank you, but for me that doesn't work correctly: With these settings i can control the system and ring volume during a call properly, but i can't change the actual 'in-call-volume' (which means the volume how loud i can hear the other party talk)... can anyone check this?
regards jan
Yes hausen, I can change "in-call-volume".
Before you uninstall S2U2...
I had this issue as well, and suspected it had something to do with having the volume buttons captured in Mortplayer and Coreplayer. Glad to see they weren't the issue so i can keep controlling them the way i like
But be careful when getting rid of S2U2!
I had S2U2 installed as well and uninstalled it without setting the volume control, and the volume buttons remained broken! I had to install S2U2 again, activate its volume control and THEN uninstall it to get volume control back! So if you want to uninstall, be sure to fix the volume controls beforehand.
Well, it seems like i really messed it up.... My volume buttons are still broken
I get the same symptoms as described earlier (volume buttons call up the volume screen, pressing a second time does not change volume but closes the volume screen instead), but in addition i noticed pressing the volume buttons while on the volume screen actually generates up arrow/down arrow keys! You can see this on many of the manilla screens where suddenly items become selected, but in other programs as well. The volume key press that calls up the volume screen doesn't seem to generate an arrow key, or it doesn't get sent to the current program.
So a couple of things i did that could have broken it:
I remapped the volume keys in Mortplayer.
I remapped the volume keys in Coreplayer.
I had S2U2 installed.
I tried to "fix" things with AEBplus.
The symptoms are always there, even after a soft reset without having run either Mortplayer or Coreplayer. I think the system's response to the volume key has changed, and the volume keys still send volume commands because explicitly remapping the keys to volume keys with AEBplus doesn't change anything. I even tried remapping another key to generate volume commands, but that just seems to keep calling up the volume screen, even if it's already active!
So i'll be struggling with this for a while it seems.... but if anyone has any suggestions or insights.....?
I have the same problem ... DOWN volume key is not working.
The annoying thing is that if I try to soft-reset the device it works but I get into bootloader. I have to press the UP volume key and keep it pressed until HTC logo appears, or else I still get into bootloader. So, I don't know what to say, but for me at leat, it might be a hardware problem.
Another thing is that when I go to hard-reset screen, none of the buttons work. I mean is I try to press volume UP or DOWN, nothing happens. Today I succeded in hard-reseting the device but the problem still persists.
I hate this thing and I hope that somehow this problem can be solved. Good luck to everyone.
PS: I will try to get official rom, radio, and SPL on my diamond, and maybe that will clear the problem because it is annoying at least.
Hope you guys have better luck then me.

Faulty volume button

Couple of days ago I noticed that my DHD's volume down button does'nt work anymore. First I didn't pay attention, thought that after restart it will be solved, but it didn't. The volume down function doesn't work in any software (up works just fine). Before I decide to go to warranty, what do you think, is it a software or hardware problem? There is no accidents or any damages happened, I know and physically the button seems to work. Please help!
Normally buttons are hardware, in your case its easy to tell.
remove the battery. Put it back in. Hold down the volume down then turn on the phone, if it starts normally your button is dead, if you get into bootloader mode it could be software and you should try reflash or wipe in settings
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Im the same, except now my volume up doesnt work either
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Thank you so much Blackhorse!
Although the first try didn't succeed (perhaps I didn't hold both volume down and power button long enough), the second try started the bootloader and I was able to use both volume buttons. After another boot the stock rom started normally and now my volume down function is back! Hopefully it stays so...
Hey guys,
My volume keys have died. Part of the wire strip that is connect to the buttons is torn.
Any ideas if there is a replacement upperboard yet?
having the same issue... going to try blackhorse's solution and see if it works
best regard
André
unfortunately it didn't work. I guess the volue down button is dead, even though I had absolutely no accidents with it.
does anybody have an idea of how to solve this, since I live in Brazil, but bought DHD in Germany?
any help would be very appreciated
best regards
André
same problem here, my buttons stop working. What I usually do then is lift the volume keys up slightly and slide some paper underneath to clean some dust and then usually it works again (for a while)

Volume buttons - long press

Hi guys,
Just received my new Nexus 7 and noticed that the volume down button doesn't lower the volume when I long press the button. Does anybody else have that issue or is a hardware defect on my end? It works when I press and hold the volume up button but not on the way down. Single clicking it works though.
thanks for any input.

thanks for the feedback. I am trying another ROM first before I rule out any software mods that may cause this. I am using the APM.
