[Q] Volume down malfunction - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So whenever i let a new ROM settle, the volume down button appears to malfunction and not work...i reboot and even turn the volume on and off in the settings but the volume down rocker doesn't work at all. Any insight on to why this happens?

i've got the same problem, but i don't know how to solve it -.-

any help guys...is it just a hardware issue? i already reflashed 2.1 firmware

I now updated to 2.3.3 stock rom (rooted with xrecovery and fps uncap) and the volume down button still doesnt work
I would also like to know (or be sure) if the button itself doesnt work (hardware problem) or if its something about a software issue, as i updated my phone and it still doesnt work i think its a hardware problem, but i dont know...

[HELP] Home button not working after flashes...

So my uncle was flashing stuff into his phone (GT-i9100) as he does from time to time, and suddenly the back button stopped working.
He continued to flash things in order to fix it. He actually did it but as soon as the back button was fixed the home button "broke", apparently caused by something similar. I guess it's not a hardware problem.
He gave the phone to me in case I could come up with a solution.
I have already flashed all the stock stuff (2.3.5) with Odin, but the home button remains dead. Even in recovery mode and all that (I can't even put the device in download mode with the famous combination, I had to do it with ADB).
So the question is, is the home button recoverable? If it is, how?? If not, can someone explain to me how did it died??
Thanks a lot.
If the button even doesn't work in recovery mode - it's a hardware failure. Take the phone to a phone repair shop (or a service center if it's currently 100% stock).
It's possible to break the hardware by flashing the wrong thing?
Is there any kernel or something that may revive the button?

[Q] issues after upgdating to jelly bean

i recently updated to jellybean the samsung galaxy s2 and im having issues with bluetooth, wifi and volume buttons. both the wifi and bluetooth do not turn on and volume buttons dont work at all... i tried to find a way to flash it again and install either stock or custom rom but as the volume buttons dont work i cant boot in recovery or download mode. i cant use kies to update either as its having the latest update already...any experienced or experiencing same? help will be greatly appreciated ..thx
If after switching off the phone, you are not able to put it in recovery/download mode because of volume buttons then your volume buttons(hardware part) are gone. Updating the ROM to JB could have affected the volume buttons but that should not stop them from working after it is powered down.

[q] zu physical volume down key not working

Guys any idea why the physical volume key of my ZU is not working?
i dont really exposed my ZU on the water, it just suddently stopped working.
Any idea if this could be a faulty product? i need to press the screen button to make it work, but the physical volume
down key doesnt work. I need this to work when i want to flash my phone to install custom roms.
please help me.
Probably a hardware issue, but you can try to reboot, do a factory reset, but i doubt it'll do anything. You'll probably have to swap the volume button.
If you are running DooMKernEL you could try Xperia Reboot app to boot into recovery. Be sure to have busybox installed.
