The volume buttons on the side of the phone do not work. They have come loose but when pressing down on them, there is still the sensation of a button being pressed however, there is on reaction on the screen. The phone has been factory reset so it seems to be a hardware problem however, I am unsure of which part of the phone that actually needs replacement. What causes this problem and what needs to be replaced?
The Volume Flex cables might be broken, a replacement is available on ebay.
U really should never mess with ur boot loader unless the hardware works correctly… Even if there is a way to do it. ull really wish u hadn’t if sumhow the phone isn’t recognized by the pc after u get to the boot loader n u can’t just do a simple factory reset without the buttons functioning the way they should. U shud probably b happy ur phone works n maybe wen u have a lol extra $ take it to the shop. Both my inspires broke from volume issues.
