bell galaxy s vibrant. i did the #*#*2663*#*# in the dialer and then updated the touchkey firmware and now both touchkeys dont work. tried flashing back to stock ugkg3 with odin. didnt fix. now the phone has ics milestone 5 on it and they still dont work. luckily the nav bar can be used and customized. how can i reenable the buttons?
Try flashing an older from in Odin. Something 2.2 from bell.

but if flashing back to stock 2.3.3 in odin didnt work why would that? i guess ill try
If not I'd say the buttons are just dead.

lol why was i able to simply click something that killed my buttons. kinda crappy
Currently I am in your boat as well with those buttons dead, but even though I am on 2.2, my kernel is different (I got other problems, phone won't work with stock kernel), I still can't fix my problem. So, yours might get fixed cause you're on stock on everything, try using 2.2 or lower. It should fix, unlike me.
im not on stock, im on 4.0.4 ice cream sandwhich, aokp milestone 5 rom
you should do the same so u can enable the nav buttons and forget the physical ones. u can have home menu back and multitask on the nav bar, plus the phone runs soooooooooooooooooooooo much smoother, its like i traded an old vibrant for a galaxy nexus
I have this problem before probably a year ago and I fixed it, I think, by first flash the stock 2.2 rom, then after the flash go to that menu again (which caused this trouble) and hit update again.. If it works then flash the 2.3 or better.. This is from my memory from a year or so ago
It is fixable and I got the fix method from this forum.. Forgot exactly which thread since it has been long time.
Good luck!

Buddy that's what I wrote in my post, but showed the only difference I have is that I have to use custom (speedmod kernel) kernel to boot up otherwise my phone won't start. So, when I get back to everything stock, I will for sure try that number thing again on 2.2 to fix it. Thanks.
i will try too and report
Dit it?

Hi, guys im having some issues and would like some expertise. Okay so i have an s4 the model is m919v but the model is unrelated to the problem. I was running custom roms and have been for a few months and i have a phone that has a locked sim. I heard from someone that i can flash an older version of my modem and get the service menu to unlock... point is i did it and it didnt unlock BUT THATS NOT MY ISSUE. I decided to then revert to stock because my phone was being really glitchy after i tried the unlock. Now i restored my phone and got a custom recovery installed a custom rom that was working flawlessly before is now also being glitchy the same way after i tried to unlock it,
These are some glitches im experiencing:
1) phone app is taking a long time to load and it doesnt type in numbers fast
2) when i call someone it just freezes and i cant go to the call screen
3) no notification sounds coming from my phone it just vibrates but doesnt ring
and im sure a few more
IM SURE THESE HAPPENED AFTER I WENT INTO THE SERVICE MENU AND TRIED TO UNLOCK MY DEVICE.
Someone please tell me what i can do to fix this because ive already reverted to stock once.
EDIT: omg MY CAMERA ISNT WORKING EITHER! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP IM SCARED

Hey after i flashed the old modem and was being glitchy i extracted the new 4.3 modem and flashed that but it was still glitchy so then decided to go full 4.3 stock and then i have the problem again ill try maybe flashing another modem hopefully thatll fix it
EDIT: ITS FIXED! THANK YOU all i flashed stock but it dindt work i had to flash stock firmware 2 TIMES THEN EVERYTHING IS WORKING PERFECT
Hello! Just god my phone out of service today (screen replacement) and I saw that the capacitive buttons weren't working all the time. I looked up on the internet and found an option (dial *#2663#) and it'll open up a menu. From there, you can see 2 important things that leads to this problem.
Phone's Touch key FW version :0x10
Part's Touch key FW version : 0x06
When I press on the Touch key FW update, a popup message appears on the screen saying (Now Updating... Warning! Do not turn off!). Because of multi-tasking I can use the phone at the same time and when this message is showed, the capacitive buttons are working without problem. The thing is, the message never disappears so it never completes the update. I've changed to stock GS4 ROM but still the same. Any help? Tried looking up on the internet but didn;t find anything useful.
Thank you!
P.S: Btw, they are working fine in Recovery mode. Isn't there anyway to restore the keys' FW to default? Also the Phone's FW is bigger than the Part's shouldn't they be reversed? I'm really desperate, thanks...!
P.P.S: Not only in recovery, but also on CM 12 (lollipop) it works without problems. What should I do? I don't really want to use CM my whole life, I'm more into TW.
Just did more "testing" on CM it is ok on the launcher, but it also has problems while being in some apps like internet they are pressed by themselves. How can I upgrade/downgrade the touch FW, I found some posts but they were htc only. I can't believe no1 knows what to do on here. help please
Have you tried kies?
Or
Install an older official samsung rom (like the one before the latest update) and then upgrade using ota.
Hopefully this will also upgrade any older firmware.
Ok, so after hours of pain, I ended up downgrading from HOA7 ROM (Lollipop) to 4.2.2. It took me some time, but meh... Anyway, after the downgrade, I accessed the same menu again, and the update for key FW have finished this time. I restarted the device, but it was still 0x10 and 0x6, nothing had changed. What should I do now?

When I said update using ota, I was talking about the rom.
The firmware for the touch keys should come bundled with the update.
And I didn't mean you to downgrade as far as jellybean. Some older kitkat build would've sufficed.
Try updating the rom to the newest variant using that OTA. If it works.
Also, the dialer code doesn't work on my lollipop GPE rom.

Hey! Thanks for your answer again! I know you didn't mean jelly bean, but I had troubles downgrading from lollipop (damn bootloader). Just finished installing Kies, will come back with a follow up. Thanks again!
Btw, which method would you recommend me more, OTA or Kies?
Both get their updates from samsung, I guess. So I don't think it matters.
But my instinct tells me to use OTA
Ok, then I need to fix the Wi-Fi first, flashing NON-HLOS.bin and modem.bin didn't help atm.
I can't find a way to fix the Wi-Fi on this version. Should I go for Kies?

Damn, this thing really pisses me off. Kies 2.6 is stuck at "connecting" and kies 3 says it's not supported (4.2.2). O.O

It doesn't matter. There my be a fatal flaw in this idea.
The phone's firmware version might be provided by samsung, but the part's firmware version is provided by the manufacturer. And I don't know if samsung manufactured that.
Are you sure it not a hardware issue?
You said that they replaced the screen. Are you talking about the glass only?
The digitizer is connected to the motherboard (and I guess that's where the firmware for it is stored) So there shouldn't be any reason why it would have a different version if you replace just the glass.
It was the entire screen (LCD/Digitizer too). In recovery, the buttons work perfectly.

The firmware seems to be stored on a partition that is not affected by changing roms. That's why it is the same even after all this rom flashing.
Even if it is in recovery, it uses the same firmware.
I would check mine but I can't since that code doesn't work.
Yea, I know, it only works on stock. Am I able to change it somehow?

It works on stock samsung firmware but not on any touchwiz based roms?
It works on stock, but on TouchWiz based ROMs as well.

Ahh, wait. I thought you're talking about the buttons. But you were talking about code.
Yes, I was talking about the codes . As for the buttons, they work flawlessly in 2 cases: 1. In recovery and 2. When I enter the menu by typing that code and choosing to update the touch key's FW.
I think this is what I'd need. The bad thing is that this is for nexus. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2800308
