I don't think so. The okay is the power button..... At least on the Vibrant. On other phones it's the okay or enter button on the keyboard but never the home or back buttons. As a matter of fact the back button does what it's supposed to. Just my 2 cents.

The OP might be screwed at this point. Unless you can remap the keys in recovery?

Dude, did you not read his entire post or do you just not understand ebonics?
HIS POWER BUTTON IS GONE!!! If you have ever flashed a rom before with clockworkmod, you would know that the "Power" button is the Ok button, which he doesn't have anymore.

Have you done anything to the file systems? Do you think it will still boot with just a hard reset? You can reset if its been rooted with adb. Do you have the sdk installed on your computer? If not, install the android sdk from the code.google site, and find an adb tutorial on this forum with the search tool..

I can 100% fix this for you. I have a few extra buttons in stock. If you send me the phone, I can solder you on a brand new one. You are not screwed...
Just PM me if you are interested....

Double check what model of phone you have. Most common cause of soft keys/menu keys/capacitive keys not functioning correctly is because you flashed a ROM not intended for your model of phone. (usually an SGH-I777 ROM on an I9100, or an I9100 ROM on an SGH-I777) Which is mild compared to the possibility of completely bricking the phone if the hardware is disparate enough.
That ROM you referenced ([ROM][4.0.4][AROMA][OTA][TABLET MODE] D4 Rom v10 - D4 Theme Engine v4.0 [29/04/2012]) is for the GT-I9100.
You only referenced the fact that you have a samsung galaxy s2. Well, there are over a dozen different models of Galaxy SII...
Look on the label under your battery. What does it say for Model?
thank you for answering,i do have the i9100 gt...
any ideas?thanks again!!

Hmm. Do you have a lock screen, and a menu when you home power for 1-2 sec?
Flash another ROM. Or flash this one again.
Probably because your tablet mode rom doesnt use the menu button but soft key.

If I press the power button for half a second it locks the phone. If I press for 2 seconds I have a menu with :turning off, reboot, plane, etc...

I'm on the wrong track.
So you're saying the Menu soft key does absolutely nothing?

My bad, think you should ask this in the rom thread your using. May be the developer will help you out.
But this time fix your title to proper question.

You said in your OP that it does nothing... But in any case, I agree with atifsh. Sounds ROM related. I'm on stock, and when I hold the menu button, if the search option is available, it will open.
Thanks anyway!

Yup there is, I read that in the battery thread for Xperia s in which doomlord had written that start the phone in safe mode and if the battery drain is still there, its due to a bug in android and if not it's due to an app!!

It's been a while since I fixed mobiles but it sounds like a hardware issue. (I have heard this can be the LCD but it sounds more like the motherboard.)
Have you updated the phone recently or put on new apps?
Before trying to fix it - try uninstalling any new apps, a factory reset or if you recently updated the phone, try downgrading it.
Hope this helps until someone gives you a definite answer.

did u use any cpu controller or something..?
looks like your cpu got busy that moment. Just do the hardway with unplug the battery.
Unless it happened many times, you'd better do like what jordan0001's suggest, factory reset or upgrade or downgrade
Thanks...maybe I'll should try...to upgrade it...:thumbup:
