How many people have problems with the back button

This is the only thing stopping me from getting this phone.. I'm trying to determine how wide spread the issue is. I figured a poll was the best way to see how wide spread the issue was, and whether its worth it to shop around to try and find a working phone

Mine seems to work fine Its not as sensitive as say my girlfriends Incredible buttons, the ones on the Epic seem to work more like physical buttons but they aren't. You have to use a little force for it to recognize and I actually prefer that because I always found myself coincidently hitting the buttons on my girlfriends Incredible when i didn't mean to/meant to press another button

It is really a non issue for me. Haven't noticed it.

I think if you used one of the defective phones, it would have been obvious.. All the other buttons worked without issue. The back button on the one I tried wouldn't register no matter how hard or how long you pressed it - some times. Some times it would register for a light little hit, other times I'd be pressing down pretty hard and nothing. By the second or third time, you'd feel the feedback buzz (which was pretty cool), and it would actually work..
It was sort of funny, the rep who was trying to sell me the phone started off to try and down play it and say "I'd just have to get used to it"... until I gave it to him. In the end, he agreed there was something wrong.
I didn't want to make the guy try other phones because I was planning on purchasing the phone from my business' phone retailer... It would have been sort of wrong to make the guy go through 3 phones and just leave if I found one that worked..
Not sure if it matters, but what state are you guys in? I'd imagine that similar batches ship to the same region.. I'm in LI, NY

Absolutely never had a problem with the backbutton.
All 4 of my capacative buttons work with light taps AND full presses.
Its hard to tell wherethe buttons are when the lights time out, and you have to hit the button in the right spot for it to register. My nexus was the same with its capacatives.
beamed from the stars on a Epic 4G

While I don't think there is an issue with the buttons persay. I was doing some testing and seems there might be some "lag" I was having this issue more with the home button at times. One time after i knew i clicked it i let is sit. took a few seconds but continued to do its thing... So maybe its the same with the back button as well. Next time after you click it once let is sit and see if it proceeds.. that way we know its a lag issue vs button issue. A lag issue would be easier to fix I would think.

First of all NeonMonster, thank you for being awesome with the Nexus One back in the day of rooting it and changing things! Haha.
Secondly,
I had a defective Epic 4G. The back button was the worst of the bunch. I would have to hit it 10-15 times to get it to work. But it wasn't the only faulty button. All of the capactive buttons seemed to falter just about anytime I went to use them.
I went to Sprint the next day and explained the problem and she said I was the first to bring it to their attention. But long story short, she exchanged it and the buttoms work perfectly. There aren't as sensitive as say the EVO or Incredible but they work as intended and the phone I once thought was hopeless and I hated, is now a phone I'm contemplating keeping.
So there are definitely defective devices out there but it is as simple as going in and getting a replacement.
Thanks for everything you guys do!

I picked my Epic on launch day and all was well..my brother on the other hand just got one this afternoon and after we got it activated i hvae noticed his has this same problem.

I didn't notice any lag... Again, I think if you have a defective phone, it would be obvious. A press just didn't register, even if you'd wait..

Yeah, there isn't a lag. It just straight up does not register any contact. You have a defective phone. I took mine back and got a new one and it works EXACTLY like it should. Night and Day!

Buttons work great.

I bought the cheap screen protecter at RS and had it put on in store, my button presses were instant. When I got home and decided I didn't like or really need the screen protector, I took it off and then my button presses didn't register as smoothly may be a quick fix for some that want to use a screen protector.

Aww from the nexus forum?? That was such a fun time! The nexus is truly a phone meant to be rooted. kinda miss that thing but the keyboard on the epic is too good.
But yes, there will always be phones that are defective and need to be replaced.

yeah i noticed some lag on mine. i also tripped out when then home and menu buttons were switched (compared to the evo) and kept pressing the wrong buttons.

its looking like a 50/50 so far on getting a phone without tis problem :-\

That logic doesn't work.
1. Most people that don't have the problem won't vote.
2. Remove the people on the last option and it's 70/30 (at the time I write this).

You might be right with #1 (I don't know), but as for #2 it is 15-14 for people who are and aren't having some sort of problem with the back button (or other buttons)..
I do agree that this is far from scientific, as people who have never used the phone are likely to be voting..

Only read because I had the issue
Yep. I think you might just skip over this thread all together unless you've had the issue. Personally, I got one phone with the issue, exchanged it, and got another with the same problem - although not as bad as the first. However, I haven't returned the second one yet and the problem seems to have gone away. I'm not sure exactly how these buttons are engineered, but I'm wondering if more people with this problem will simply see it go away. FYI: the first phone I had was getting better but it started out as more of a 70% fail/only work with hard mashing.

My back button has a mind of its own :-( it presses itself when it wants to. Very annoying.

My first phone didn't have a working 4g radio. The second had this problem and it is very annoying if your used to a working button I returned it to radio shack. My third phone is perfect in every way.(hardware wise) this was all in the first week of the phone release. I would deffinetly go back and return it.

Home button making a cracking sound

I am afraid the home button on my SGS4 is somehow defective. It still functions properly, but it is making all kind of cracking sounds. It almost feels loose. I checked on a SGS3 and a Note 2 and none of the home buttons were exhibiting the same behaviour.
So my question to you guys is, does your home button feel solid or is there and cracking with light touch?
Please take a look at the video I made.

On mine, i can hear and feel a slight crackling noise with light touch without pressing the key all the way down. The button feels solid, tight and works just fine AFTER the initial press, but it bothers me that it does that. The shop people wouldn't consider this as a defect since it's so minor, but minor enough to annoy a fussy tech person like me.
Does anyone else have this problem?

Nice and solid on mine. No noises what so ever.

Has it gotten worse or better since then? I wonder if it will go away after a few months of button mashing?

Just wondering (it might be stupid from my side, still...) did you remove plastic protective foil from the button. Usually it gets stucked on the button and it is hard to spot...

I switched my I9500 for a new one and the home button is now perfect with no cracking noises.

Yeah, I got this problem as well! Mine is not loose just like yours, but if you press softly on the button you can feel it move before the key activates.
Then, when you put the phone away, the problem returns after 10 mins of not being used. As if the plastic material "expands" and gets jammed. It really annoys me, because the phone was very expensive for me 800USD here in Denmark! And i expect a perfect phone for that kind of money!
Have anybody got a solution to this?
I am not willing to return the phone because they are only going to send it to get repaired, and I can feel it in my gut that I will get a phone back with more errors than before lol.
And how have it developed since? Gotten worse or better?

Too early to tell. It's really irritating though. I resulted in downloading a software home button to use instead (to prevent it from getting any more worse). Swipe Pad and Pie Control are both good at simulating the hardware home button - no root is required either.

i just noticed a slight cracking noise on my home button as well. It is more apparent if you press towards the edges of the button, and kind of seems like a 2-stage click. annoying

Thanks for the information! I like Pie Control best of the two!
Although, the problem wont solve itself by avoiding the button, so i think i will press it even more, just to see if the problem persists, gets worse or fixes itself. In my experience the button has gotten worse over the past few days. The shop wont take the phone back because they label it as "self fault" (dont know the english term), they think I am the problem and have not taken care of my phone. This is ridiculous! I have now sent at mail to Samsung Denmark to see if they can help me!

I've got something very similar with mine. It feels slightly loose and not the solid feel it had when I first got the phone. I'm interested in how you get on too.

Mine moves slightly which is expected, but no cracking sounds and feels solid

My home button does the same thing. Although I think it started after I tripped and dropped it at the top of a staircase and it bounced off every stair all the way down *facepalm*

+1
Power button is wonky too.
I'm really unimpressed by the overall build quality of this phone - especially for its price.
Oh well. "First World Problems"

My home button feels absolutely fine, on the other hand, my power button feels sticky and spongey when I press it, still works fine though.
Nothing like my Galaxy Note 2 which clicks when pressed.

Mine started "clicking" few days ago. It drives me mental when trying to navigate through at night.

Sunk in home button, normal?

Picked up my 32 GS4 yesterday and now I am noticing that the home button is sunk in. It's completely flush with the screen. Doesn't stick out at all. It works completely fine, but makes a really audible clicking noise. Obviously Samsung doesn't manufacture these all the same. I am worried if it will get worse in time. A google search brought many results with the GS3's home button. Apparently some think its normal, some don't. I am really fussy when it comes to QC on flagship phones.
Just wondering if anyone else has a sunk in home button?

its normal.

I don't have one yet, but I just wanted to say that I really wish they would have used a capacitive button instead. I work construction, and dust/sand etc. destroys the physical buttons. Also will miss the search button that I have on gs2 I like pressing and holding it for voice search

Yeah. I have noticed a couple Note 2's home buttons being flat, while others were slightly raised. I don't know if its considered not normal, as it functions just fine.
I do not like the loud audible click the button makes. I might try to swap it towards the end of my 14 days.
EDIT: Ok, looking at it really closely, its not completely flat. Maybe a tad lower than the other phones. I don't know, I would hate to return a phone because I'm too OCD.

Mine is slightly raised. Does it function properly? Have good tactile feedback? If so, I would say it's all good.

The home button functions perfectly fine. Since it doesn't stick out, the tactile feedback isn't that great. May take it to AT&T this week. Haven't decided. I am actually more concerned about my power button. Seems very hard to push and mushy, like its not sticking out as much as it should.

My home button is just BARELY above the rest of the phone, but it feels very responsive and a bit 'clicky'. While it's not raised so much, it at least feels really solid.
However my unlock button seems like it's really sunken in and almost hard to press at times, does anyone else have one like that as well?

Same exact issue here with the power button. The home button I can live it, but the power button should be clicky and not feel so mushed.

Thank god, at least I'm not the only one. This is my second s4, I just brought back my first one from HUGE battery issues. Would lose 15-20% while idle while I was asleep.
Already noticed a huge difference with my new one, except now I've noticed the mushed in unlock button. It's functional, it just feels like it has the possibility of eventually getting stuck somehow...Maybe I'm just being overly attentive and sensitive with the new one.

Then exchange it. When they bring your new phone out thoroughly examine it first.

I'm very tempted, but at the same time , I don't wanna be THAT GUY who keeps bringing back phones because one very tiny detail is slightly off-putting of their OCD.

And AT&T kept bringing out S4's and let you have your pick? Must have been nice. My local AT&T store would never do that.

Neither would mine. Best Buy MIGHT, but it's not very nice to make them keep opening boxes of new products. Not sure if they can still sell them as such afterward.
The unlock button does seem more sunken than it should be. Might swing by the ATT store in a day or two just to check out their display...If it's that bad, i'll bring it back to best buy and see if they're willing to do another exchange . I only have 4 days left on my 15 day window unfortunately.

Did you put a screen protector

DAMN! I wish I didint see this thread because my OCD just kicked in...
Mine is raised about 1mm up. On my note II its about 2mm.

sunken UNLOCK button

I've seen the thread addressing some sunken/flush home buttons.
But does anyone else have a slightly sunken unlock button?
Mine seems to be quite noticeably smaller than the volume rocker and can be tricky to push. This is my second s4, the first one I replaced due to a funky battery , but I don't remember it being nearly this hard to press the unlock button. It seems like the actual switch for it is directly in the middle and the button can be held down on either side without actually engaging the unlock button.
I might just be overly sensitive looking for every possible thing on my new phone ,specially after having something wrong with the previous one. But my return/exchange window is closing (2 days left) I got it from best buy. They did the first exchange no problem, I'm not sure if they'll be willing to do a second one simply for this issue.
I plan on swinging into the local AT&T and possibly best buy tomorrow to look at their display models and see how big of a difference there is. If the unlock button is supposed to be as sturdy and out of the body as the volume rockers, I might address an employee and see if I could swap again.

Mine is exactly the same as yours. Its defective. Period. I'm getting it replaced later today. I'd recommend you do the same while you can. They have to exchange the phone if your not happy with it. This issue will definitely get worse over time. The power button should not be slightly sunken in. I'd get this taken care of ASAP so you can start enjoying the phone.

As the others said, this definitely seems abnormal from your description. It's not like they'll turn you down on replacing your phone. If you're really curious, go ask a sales rep at an AT&T store about the buttons, and see what he/she says. Even then I'm pretty sure they are still obligated to replace it if you are unsatisfied.

Just swung by ATT, showed the rep there and had him compare the two and felt myself. He didn't notice much of a difference. I did notice theirs seemed much sturdier. The store is right next to best buy so I'm going there next to check out their display model and hopefully get it switched out. Still not sure if I'm just letting my tech OCD get the best of me or if it's a legit defect.

Power button flush

I returned my previous nexus 7 with many problems there were touch issues, freezes, and udid not matching issues and I had to literally reset my tablet 10 times...even on the stock ROM there were issues..but this time I decided not to root it after getting an exchanged device ...everything seems to be good except the power button is lopsided....like one side sticks out while the other is almost level with the tablet and I also noted that the front facing camera isn't center...but with both problems the camera and button still works...do you guys think that the power button may stop working eventually? Everything else is fine with the device so I'm hesitant to exchange it again

I don't agree.
The buttons on all of my N7s have been different, the current one I have is solid and clicky and definitely not lopsided. If it's not aligned properly inside the case there's definitely a chance the ribbon cable will be sitting and bent in a position it wasn't meant to be in, causing it to fail prematurely. That's not OCD, that's simply poor manufacturing.
To the OP, I don't recommend exchanging it if everything else about your unit is good considering getting a good one right now is a crapshoot. I haven't looked closely at how accessible the buttons are when the back cover is removed, but one option would be to open it and see if you can fit the alignment or see if the buttons themselves are physically warped.
Regardless of what you do, I would suggest RMAing it at some point before your warranty is up.

I didn't mean to start a fight haha thanks for the input guys....the button does work fine but I just hope the other side doesn't get flushed to the point where I can't press it either lol that's what I was mainly worried about

I've tried a few units where the buttons were perfect, just sticking out and with the solid click. It feels very nice, but it totally isn't worth trying to playing return roulette for the buttons given the even worse things that could be wrong with the replacement. They are remarkably rare. Most of the ones I've seen have the mushy buttons, often with one side more flush than the other (they aren't supposed to be flush)
You'll eventually get a case with a magnetic on/off and won't even notice the power button anymore.
