I flashed the rom on my mogul recently and after the flash my buttons no longer work, the only buttons that work are the power and the directional buttons, all the soft keys, camera, talk, end and ok buttons no longer work, does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I have another mogul and i flashed the same rom and everything is fine with it, ive flashed other roms to the messed up mogul and have no luck getting the buttons back.

I had this problem but it was not flash related... I wrote it off to a connection getting a little damp. It happens when it gets real humid (like if I forget and take it in the bathroom when I am taking a shower). A hard reset didn't help. It happened intermittently to me for a few weeks... it would be fine for a few days, and then for about 24 hours or so the buttons wouldn't work. And this was with the stock Alltel ROM.
I haven't had any trouble at all the past few weeks now that I am being a little more careful about keeping it dry.

I have quite a big problem with my TP.
I run NRGZ latest rom with my UC settings and S2U2, and after a week with no problems at all my pone has become self-aware
That means that he, by himself (phone is on desk and no body is touching it) starts to opening camera (and taking pictures) starts to opening comm manager, starts messing with my (his) volume settings (increase, decrease ring volume).
First I thought that maybe some of setting got fuzzy (but for 6 days it worked perfectly fine) so on reflash my TP to stock rom and flash it again with custom rom (|RAPH|ROM|6.5|WWE| ★ EnergyROM 'Warhawk' (SYS 23016) ★ | Built Aug 11 | w Manila 2.1!).
With latest flash I disabled UC and didn’t install any other app but issues are still here: randomly opens comm manager, camera, volume settings.
I have to mention that I really look out on my phone (in my country it costs 1000$ in retail) so it didn’t fell, took a bath or anything like that.
My phone is still in warranty and I will flash to stock rom, radio and SPL but before that I liked to know what the cause is.
I had the same problem. After installing NRG's ROM, my phone began to whack out just like yours after a few days. Ultimately, it started getting really hot, and the battery was no longer able to charge when the phone was on - it would discharge down to zero when plugged in and could only charge with the phone off. Going back to stock didn't solve the problem, and I ended up having to get the phone replaced. I have no idea if it was related to NRG's ROM or just a coincidence as I've used NRG's ROMs with no problem before.
Ghost?
Maybe NRG's ROM is so cool that unseen want to use it too
Seriously, flash an official ROM and then flash back to NRG's ROM. Some unexplained behaviour has been attributed to NAND corruption which the an official ROM flash corrects (by reformatting in the process). I had a different weird issues and were fixed when i installed an official ROM and then NRGs ROM.

already did that and no difference
could it be HW issue???
Me too - flashing to stock made no difference. Some kind of permanent hardware damage was done to it (and not from dropping or from water or anything obvious). Maybe the cooked ROM cooked the processor or something.
Hmm, do you think you could get it replaced by reflashing the stock goodies back to your carrier? Or if you really looking for debugging the issue, try sending a pm to cmonex of hardspl fame..
I'm having the same type of problem with my fuze. The volume just zeroes itself out; you can actually see the slider visually go down the slide scale, past vibrate to silence. If you adjust the volume up using the side volume up button, but the slider will just go right back down. It doesn't seem to matter what ROM I use. This is the only problem with the phone. But when it starts this volume adjusting, no other programs can run as the phone stays in the volume adjust screen. Sometimes it works for days without problem and then the problem will not go away, even after a hard reset. Any help??? I'm just a noob that knows very little programming; just enough to get in trouble.

Mine has the scroll wheel operating out of its own. So when using Opera it zooms in and out all the time.

did you (or anybody affected with this or similar issue) find out how to reproduce this "bug" because with my luck when i go to repair center everything will work just fine
Mine seems to act up worse as the battery starts to get just a bit low on juice. The phone is the most stable when I leave it plugged into my computer using the USB cable.
My phone would only charge with the phone off. So I recharged then followed the directions on www.blownfuze.com (or maybe .org - can't remember) to get everything back into shape for a warranty return. I actually took it into the warranty center in person and they tested it while I waited. Obviously it was all fine because they handed me a brand new phone.
hello,
i am having problems with my keyboard. when i slide open the phone the keyboard backlight comes on for a few seconds then disapears but none of the keys work at all. its as if it doesnt know i have the phone open. every once in a while i can reboot the phone enought times and it will come back for a while then eventually it will stop working again. i have flashed several roms including a sprint stock rom and it still does not work. please help if you can. it is VERY frustrating.
If you have insurance on the phone, Flash the stock Sprint ROM and run the relocker - then take it back for replacement.
If not, well..... get used to touch screen input, or you could buy another phone.
I know it has been posted in here a couple times since I had the same problem. Squeeze the keyboard at the spacebar and do a soft reset. The cable for the KB gets reseated that way. Has worked on a couple different Touch Pros I have had and fixed them all.

I'm having the same problem with my keyboard, and I saw this answer, but I wanted a little clarification if you could. What do you mean squeeze the keyboard at the spacebar? As in press the spacebar while soft resetting? or litterally squeezing the metal casing around the keyboard? Thanks!
Looks the video and comment, or give me a fix:
I'm having a similar issue - only difference is that I'm on AT&T. My power button gets extremely hot, almost hot enough to burn your finger, and the screen and capac. buttons do not respond to touch AT ALL.... I've restored my pds partition backup, completely wiped and reflashed sbf (2.3.6) restored every NAND backup I have.... nothing... Started on Saturday morning - no rhyme or reason... just POOF. the volume buttons and power button still work (although its very hot) and it boots just fine.... I'm at a loss for ideas.
[edit] this is my original Atrix 4G that I got on pre-release day... never had any issues before, never had to replace it... until now, unless anyone has some ideas that will fix this...
Bump for replies.... Any ideas here guys? I've taken my atrix completely apart since my last post... there are no broken connections or any circuits that appear "burnt" or anything like that.... I'm really puzzled...
anyone have *any* ideas at all here?
Now using Epsilon5 Rom i have no bug, calibrating in Aroma installer.
I'm still searching for answers to my issue.... I'm glad you got yours fixed.... I'm seriously confused with mine...
i have an evo lte that the whole screen works fine but the capacitive buttons wont work most of the time. i am currently running capt's 4.3 s-off. it seems when they do work its right after booting up and i let it sit for a few min. then when i pick it up after a few touches they stop responding. any suggestions?
*#*#3424#*#* running button test vol+/- and cam work but back< doesnt
i think this miht have something to do with it
can anyone confirm this please or some input. ive tried flashing ruu as well and no luck.
Wife's whole screen and buttons do the same thing from time to time. Sometimes, if you restart it a few times, it will start working again. Pretty sure her ribbon cable looks the same way. My guess is water damage. Her loud speaker is garbage also. Sounds blown but when you look at it, it looks fine, no pieces of metal shavings that I can see. Though, part of the speaker is blocked. We both just upgraded to M8's but damn I'd like to get the LTEvo working, just to play with.
Hi,
My note has started to act weirdly not too long ago. i had a custom firmware installed on it and it was working fine. i decided to change the firmware to put it back on stock Rogers and again it worked fine. maybe 1 week or 2 after the phone started to go into boot loop, even keeping the display off and just vibrating. i've been able to get into the recovery and download mode. i tried several way to fix the boot loop but in vain. i left the phone on my desk for a couple of weeks since i didnt had much time to work on it. now i'm trying to start working on it but i ended up with more errors!
now:
- my phone does get in download mode but reboot by itself even before i have time to flash anything with odin.
- i've only been able to get in recovery mode once, tryied to wipe to factory, but then rebooted by itself again.
whatever i do now i can't stay in any modes more than 5 sec until the phone restarts by itself...
Any tips and trick to have my phone working again?
Thanks in advance!
It sounds like the infamous stuck power button has plagued your device.
Try flicking the back of your phone by the power button with your finger. That's been a common fix. Another one is flicking the power button itself. If those methods fail you can try taking it apart and cleaning it. It is a very small tiny microswitch. Spraying cleaners or anything from the outside won't work. It's not hard to take apart, but I hope flicking it helps.

Sounds like a stuck power button.
Flick the back of your phone a few times.........I know " but I hear and feel it click", doesnt mean anything. Flick it
Some are not afraid and will open phone and clean contacts with alcohol and qtip. I am afraid though.
Flick it

I must type just a bit slower than you. beat me to it
Hey guys thanks for the quick answer. i really happy to know that it's a kind of common problem. the things is, could you explain me what you mean by flicking my phone? english is not my first language so i don't fully understand what i need to do :s like i should swiftly hit my finger with my phone by the power button to "unstuck" the button?
hummm don't mind that, i just took it appart, pretty easy job. so now, i spray contact cleaner on the switch itself?
Thanks

Hey guys thanks alot on that tip it really helped!
the contact cleaner might have help but when i reassembled my phone it was still rebooting. the did the flick trick and it seems to be working now. i will test it a little (pressing several time ton the power button) and flick it again if i need to.
Again, thanks a lot!
