You need root and need to do the opposite of what's said in the thread. I used it to disable HW keys when I flashed pie ROM. ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP OF THE FILES YOU'RE ALTERING

While in the process of trying to revert my I9000M back to stock, I've inadvertently screwed my soft keys i.e. the menu and back buttons no longer work.
I went from stock 2.2 to Darky's 9.2 Resurrection, had an issue with my data connection dropping intermittenly, tried 9.3 Extreme and then 9.4 Extreme, following all the guides, everything worked great but still had the random data disconnects happening.
Before I realized that it might just be the modem and that I should have left the 9.4 in and tried a different one, I tried to go back to stock using one of the guides here and now my soft keys are inoperable.
I've since tried reflashing using the information here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952754
and actually got my phone back closer to what it was when I first got it, but my keys are still not working.
Any help or a direction to go from here in order to get these working again would be GREATLY appreciated!
Found some links to similar issues, I obviously need to get back to the same firmware the phone came with or close to it, then update the touch firmware from there.
I always used custom roms CM,
i flash stock rom I9505XXUHOH2_I9505TPHHOI1_I9505XXUHOH2
and now my back button / key don't work.
any fix ?
did you find any solution to this?
updated to hoh2 a few days ago and had the same problem, back button doesnt work at all (not even the light..)
doesnt matter if full install of hoh2 via odin, or get update by OTA.
now i downloaded previous stock rom (hof2) and flashed it, now everything is fine again. skipped ota update for now as it will break the keys again.
couldnt find any solution to this so far. also samsung has no idea (and never heard of it before...)
First time rooting my phone, I believe I used the wrong root for my Samsung SM-N900W8. After doing so the back and menu button stopped working (it works if I use the s-pen).
I flashed my phone with stock on odin and the problem still persists.
If anyone can help me
Thanks
UPDATE: Found a solution.

Good luck to others with the same problem.
Hello,
I have noticed since I have flashed the universal bootloader for LineageOS 14.1, that sometimes I am unable to perform the pull down action on the notification bar in order to open the quick settings.
Sometimes, this is fixed by locking the screen by pressing the power button and unlocking it after. This does not always work though. A more reliable way to "fix" this is to completely reboot the phone.
Can someone please advise if there's a known, more permanent, fix for this issue?
PS I went back to stock through EDL (shis should overwrite the boostack, right?), and the issue is present on stock rom too (2017G B10 7.1.1)
thanks a lot in advance!

Wait what? So you flashed the universal bootloader AFTER installing Lineage, and presumably using it?
If you installed an EDL ROM and the problem persists, it's definitely not the bootstack. are you sure there's nothing else that you installed both on stock and los?

I definitely did not flash the bootloader after flashing lineage, I do not believe it's possible; my apologies if my wording was off.
As you said, it is possible that the switch to Lineage was just a coincidence.
You make a good point though, I did restore the same titanium backup apps on both ROMs. I should factory reset and see if it solves it.
cheers

Yeah, I just didn't know what you meant. I guess it might be a root app or something. I used Material Notification Shade on stock but it had a couple of problems that i didn't figure out until some time ago (it was pretty obvious though)
And for something physical, have you fitted a screen protector lately? I had one that interfered with pull down.
Hi,
I just changed from Stock ROM to latest lineage OS with TWRP. After installing some APPs, i figured out, when call comes in or out, display gets off (dark) and doesnt comes back easily. Now, touch doesnt response so I cant unlock with pattern. Booting to recovery doesnt give me touch response so I cant swipe for "allow changes".
How could i fix this? Maybe with flashing now Recovery or Kernel via Download Mode, but how to do? Thank u
I suggest flashing back to a completely stock ROM and start over.
The screen going black could be an indication of a problem with the proximity sensor. The touch could be a driver issue in the custom ROM.
Edit: Airdroid Mirror doesnt work to unlock pattern lock

Thank u,
but i forgot to tell u there is working USB Debugging with working Airdroid. Befor the issue Airdroid Mirror works great (control movements and clicks via Windows AirDroid Tool), but now with the issue i cant unlock pattern lock with airdroid. No response while moving Finger/Mouse but function keys like home work in Airdroid and also at touch.
Any idea how to fix this special thing? Is this an proximity sensor error?

Don't think the proximity sensor would be related to Android mirror.
Since you can't unlock the phone because the touch does not work, I would flash back to a stock ROM and check as many functions as possible. If the phone doesn't function properly on a stock ROM, it is unlikely to function properly on a custom ROM.

I just flashed one of some stock roms,this one: I9505XXUGNG2_I9505OXAGNG2_DBT frome the thread "go back to stock rom" and did wipe data factory reset. It installed some apps, but then no touch is responding.
I did opened phone, reconnected all cables but no luck. How to bring back touch is working?
Try one of the stock roms from samsung-firmware.org that is specifically for the carrier that originally issued the phone.
Could the problem be a loose connection?
Same problem here. Its an Samsung S4, german version.
I tried the jfvelte-version from https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys4valueedition.html and it works great. Touch-screen works like a charm. Maybe this info will help other users.
