It is most probably a hardware issue. I see a similar problem every now and then.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16890542
But, be careful when you try to fix things yourself. You may cause more damage than you can imagine if you do something wrong.

So here's my scenario, I let a friend of mine borrow my phone for a couple of hours for work and ever since he returned it my 4 capacitive buttons have been acting up, my menu button presses itself it seems and I cannot hold down the home button to review my recent apps or access the task manager because my phone reboots itself . I do not know what he did or if he messed around with it but according to him he didn't do anything. Is there anyway anyone can help me remap the buttons to stock? Any help is appreciated, Thank You!

Maybe liquid damage?

I'd try an odin to factory reset and see if it's software related. If its still acting up after a reset then it'll be a hardware problem.

I think its software related because my search button vibrates once on press and then it vibrates again on release, do any of you guys know how to remap the buttons?

If you're not rooted, have you tried doing a reset?
phone settings > privacy > factory data reset
will wipe your data but agree with the earlier posters... if doing a factory reset doesn't fix it, it's probably a hardware issue (perhaps water damage).
Are you running maddogins lockscreen mod?

Time to tell your friend to buy you a new phone!
Sounds like LD. Try the reset if you can, and hope for the best.

I've done a hard reset a couple of times and the problem is still there. I'm starting to think it is hardware related, the weird thing is that I've had the phone since it was released and it never gave me these problems until recently..

What about cleaning the entire glass really well? Maybe an oily smudge causing issues?
Did u figure it out yet? I certainly wouldn't be letting my friends borrow my phone again.

I found this to be true so i uninstalled and home button fixed!
but the menu button is still acting up... I have decided that it's hardware related so i will be getting my phone replaced, thank you guys for the help.
Hey guys,
I have an issue that didn't affect me much at first, but it seems like its happening a lot more lately. When I tap the back or menu key, its like the button sticks, it keeps pressing itself over and over again so fast. I usually just lock the phone to make it stop.
I have tried different Roms, but I guess that has nothing to do with it.
Has anyone experienced this? If so, did you fix it?
I have experienced this.....the only why I could find to fix it was to return my device. Sorry this probably didnt help you much.

This is a hardware issue and needs to be replaced.

So my power button is broken and i'm on the official T-Mobile Jellybean release. I was wondering if there was some code I could put in build.prop that could enable the volume rocker wake until I send it into Samsung for repair. I exhausted every resource and read many forums but I couldn't find anything. If anyone could help me or even point me in the right direction it'll be really appreciated!
Thanks a lot!

what u need is button remapping.
depending on model of your phone, u can find out hard button mapping, then using adb u can assign the change.
i know it's possible, i did it on a old captivate once. Will go thru my notes.....
hit thanks now or late
Hmm sounds hard but i'll try googling it. Thanks!

I had the power button issue too. I sent it to a third party place to get the button replaced. My phone is working like a charm now.
It seems the gs2's had this issue on a few of them. The button seems to get stuck and the phone keeps on rebooting.
Cost me 40 bucks to get it fixed. Well, plus shipping.
Here is the link to the place I used.

Hope this helps
Tried remapping the buttons...failed miserably. Thanks for the help guys!

Try fixing it yourself
there are excellent step by step videos on youtube
teaches you exactly how to replace all parts
I have seen the videos seems simple
just order the button assembly online
save yourself some big buks
you can probably fix it faster yourself this way too...
I am facing some problem with the power button, have to press it hard to on and off and sometimes have to press 3-4 Times to on. Is anyone having the same issue ?
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app

Yes buddy the same problem..for now only two solutions-either send it to hTC to get it repaired or use sweep to wake...
Thanks for the reply.. Just wanted to confirm about the issue.. As my phone is under warranty i will better send it to Service centre.

I'm having the same issue, and i didn't want to start a new thread because of something so small.
But I unlocked my bootloader, this clearly is a hardware issue right, you think they will be nagging about it when I send it back?

No I haven't sent it in yet, but I think i will do that once the button becomes more unresponsive.
It works fine for now. Let's hope it stays that way:good:
My volume down button isn't working. I got my phone very slightly wet yesterday and also pressed the volume button with a slightly we're hand, which I think is the culprit. Anything I can try to fix this? Should/Could I open up my nexus and fix it? Thankfully on android you can grab the volume when you change it

Do you have enough knowledge to fix it? http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+Nexus+Teardown/7182/1
This might help you, so you can see the internals.
Since it is water damage, have you tried the rice trick?
I haven't tried the rice thing partly because I don't have rice. With the disassembly, I think I can handle it. I've done stuff like that before so I may try it later tonight.
My button works when I press a bit hard also so it may just be out of place.
Thanks.
