Back button softkey broken after Odin flash - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has this ever happened to anybody before?
I performed a clean flash of N900W8VLU2DOD1 through Odin (pulled battery, booted straight into Download mode).
The menu softkey works, but seems to register as hitting/long pressing the menu button, so S Finder opens.
The Back button does not respond to touch, but will light up when the Menu button is pressed.
All of my softkeys are working just fine when I am running a custom Touchwiz ROM, or Temasek's CM12.1...
Does anybody know how to fix this?!

[Q] Stuck on stock recovery with no home button, any suggestions?

The home button on my G1 stopped working, so, I unrooted the phone, but now it's stuck on the stock recovery (Triangle/Exclamation point screen). I've been able to do Alt S and alt+L, (Alt+w doesn't work, I think the w is also broken), but I can't reboot because it asks for home and back button to reboot. Any other suggestions on what i can do to fix this?

Home Button

I have a Nexus S running 2.3.4 and today i reset everything to factory default and now when i press the home button and the search button it just vibrates and nothing happens.
Before it would take me to home or to the search window.
IS there a setting somewhere that I need to chage ?
This happened to me as well today, after unlocking the boot loader and flashing a new (stock) rom. Just restarted the device and everything went back to normal... for now.

[Q] (SOLVED) Home and notification panel not working

I tried installing this mod:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789666&page=97
But my phone got a bootloop, so i flashed the stock firmware 4.4.2 Gt-i9505 via odin and it worked..sort of.
Now the home button, notification center, the settings icon in the pulldown menu, the button next to it,my lockscreen and long pressing the wifi to the multiwindow button doesn't work. Power menu only contains reboot and power off, used to have airplane mode and volume buttons.
Menu, back, volume keys and power button are working. And home button wakes the screen if its of.
Please help :crying::crying::crying:
PS I don't like to do a full wipe
Also tried replacing framework-res.apk with another one, another bootloop, so reflashed the same rom again.
Do a full wipe
There is nothing like I dont want to

So, I guess question solved.

Remapping MENU and RETURN touch buttons

Hi,
My L720-S4 is experiencing a failure of the touch buttons (menu and return buttons next to the home button). I've researched and tried various programs, such as Virtual Button Bar and Button Savior. With these programs, the return function works well but the MENU button does not work.
I've done Xposed but that didn't have the options for the MENU button that I could find.
So after further research, I rooted the device to edit the /SYSTEM/USR/KEYLAYOUT/GENERIC.KL file to change the volume down button (114) to MENU. Unfortunately this also does not work.
Can I get some advice or suggestion as how I may go about reprogramming on of the keys to act as the MENU button ideally or have a menu button GUI overlay like the two software above? Device is currently on stock ROM @ 4.4.2.
Many thanks in advance for those that can help save this S4.
Cheers!
The Sprint S4 boot loader comes unlocked,and since youre already rooted,just flash a stock ROM or ODIN back to stock and re-root. All of this assuming you just want the buttons to work like stock.

It's probably me but what you suggest seems to be where I'm at right now. Flashing back to stock then re-rooting is the same as me rooting the stock ROM. If at all possible, I'm trying to map the volume down button with one press to work in place of the defective MENU button and a long hold of the volume down button will lower the volume.
Again, maybe I miss understood your suggestion so my apologies if that's the case and hope you'll explain in more detail.
Cheers!
