Hello everybody,
I've bought my titanium silver S7E a week ago and have been satisfied so far.
Last couple of days, I've noticed that the home button is only responsive if I click on its center and a bit to the left.
The edges of the button and the whole right side will produce a "click" sound, but won't really press the button.
The fingerprint sensor integrated within the button works just fine.
Anyone else has this issue?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
no issue
There is already a thread about this home button's issue here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/flaky-home-button-t3337431
I had also the same problem and i went to Samsung Greece. They told me that the home button is manufactured to working properly only at the centre and they have no information about this issue.
But they seen the button's problem and they change my screen (button and screen are together).
Now the problem is not gone but its better than before....Im not happy about...

Has anyone noticed that the black home button (located at the bottom edge of the screen, 2nd from the left) isn't as responsive as the other 3? I have Haptic feedback enabled and when I spam the button at the home screen, it doesn't vibrate as much as the other 3.
this has been posted previous times already did you even search? you need to take your phone back and get a new one its defective lots of people are having that problem
Nope, didn't think that it was a prevailing problem. Thanks for the info tho. Will be at the store tomorrow.
Hello everyone! I have few problems with my phone.
First one is that sometime the back button doesn't work. In the recovery in the option which alllows to test button all buttons works fine.
And also when the back button doesn't work it's like the screen calibration is not good. For example in the dialer if i press the number 1 button it doesn't work but if i press the number 3 button it works but it's recognized as the button number 1 by the phone.
I'm actually on stock 2.1 rom before my last rom was SDSL 2.0
If somebody can help me thanks!

try to wipe data/factory reset. after this you go to settings and calibrate it (2.1 can do it, can't it ? )
Ok I'll try this. And yes stock version have screen calibrration but already tried this few time but it doesn't work.
Thanks for helping!
Edit: Tried this but still not working.
Could be hardware issue like mine. Screen calibration is very off and back button is not working when I press it it does not respond then when I press any part of the bottom half of my screen it opens the menu option? ??!?!?!?!?

Our problem is quiet similar. If it's a hardware issue I think we can't do anything
yeah lg??
lg?
Send to LG service
No I don't think I'll send it to LG Service because I think it will take a month to get it back. Otherwise I'll change my phone in few month so I'll do with it.
Thanks for helping!
Yep just like me hold on a few more weeks ..then change phone
Similar issue with BRAND NEW P-880
Back button works, but no LED behind it. Never lights up. Home and Menu light up, but not the back. Had the exact same problem with one I bought in Taiwan, also brand new. I think there's a batch of these that are bad and being sold. This one I just got off Amazon.
One obscure thread I found says it's a bad USB port/cable for the light issue.
Dear !
I am user of OnePlus 2 and I have problem with my home button. It is well known problem, but what I should do in such situation - send it with warranty ?
Sometimes id doesn't work and I need to touch it many, many times before it will star working.. :/ I was testing meizu mx5 and there home button was much better. What I should do?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePAjihJJbhg - here is my problem
Everyone knows there is an issue with sensitivity of home button. Hopefully this will be solved by future OTA updates by Oneplus. Till then use on screen buttons or set screen off on long press of Home button and Camera on double tap(Kinda works for me).
fortunately home button is working fine in my phone
but once i changed the double tap functionality to turn the screen off then i observed battery drain
so switched back to do nothing on double tab
Interesting, I have this problem but in reverse. Its activating the home button without me touching it. i tried wiping the button with a cloth but no luck. Had to switch to on-screen buttons. Anybody have a solution?
Hi Guys,
I have a galaxy s7 edge which is almost two months old now.
Recently I noticed that the home button especially the left side of it , when you click it , it doesn't register until it is pressed a little hard.
This ain't the issue with the middle of the button or right side.
I purchased the phone from UAE on a vacation and hence it doesn't have any warranty in my country.
Is it normal or is this an issue?
I'm having this issue as well. Mostly when I press the home button the left side gently it doesn't register.
Everything else is great with the phone though so not sure if it's worth me returning it with warranty though...

Is this a normal and common problem?
What do you think you should do?
Hello, I hope this is the right forum for my question, sorry if I made a mistake. Anyway, my uncle bought this phone month ago in another country, everything worked fine until yesterday when LCD stopped working. After some time of trying to fix it, we concluded that if you press volume (up, down or both at the same time) button and then the power button, screen turns on and works for some time (couple minutes) but then goes black again. If you just press power button (without pressing volume button) it stays black but you can still hear it unlocks when you slide your finger across the screen, so touch screen works, phone works but LCD is black. I am guessing it's loosing connection but how does it turn on every time when I press volume button? It's very confusing. Phone was in a protective case since first day and it hasn't been dropped. Since it's bought in another country, it would cost more to return it there than to buy new one, so do you have any ideas? I have been replacing lcd screens for my friends last two years so I was thinking maybe I can disassemble it and check connections. Any help? sorry for my bad english

Hello there, I'm from Brazil, as my english may not be the best lol... So I have same phone as you and similar problem... The problem is that volume down doesn't work. Other buttons work fine though. Also, the phone always enters in safe mode, so I assumed the volume down button is being pressed all the time. Except that, I realized that I could enter in download mode (I tested, if I don't press volume down in the combo 'power button + home + volume down' it won't get into download) and if I press volume down to cancel it will actually cancel and restart the phone. So the button is working... Here is the part where I think the problem is similar. There was a time I turned the phone off, through the system as we normally do, and then it wouldn't turn on again. I realized it was actually turning on, but the screen was black. I tried entering download mode and tested on odin and it actually had entered download mode, but the screen was black... Then after several attempts it finally got back on again... So I think there is something related with the button circuit with the lcd, I don't know. I would like to know if you got to any solution there. I guess that instead of bringing you any solution I'm bringing another problem lol. Well if I have any other information I will post it here. Best wishes.
