looking up GT-I8190_EUR_JB_Opensource.zip at google leads to the official (?) samsung open source platform with the mentioned zip file.

maybe you could extract and exchange the two files

yourself?

have no idea if its that easy though :D

probably not...

also:

what would be the next step then when having a fixed kernel and a twrp?

flash them again, maybe even with wiping?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-Andi:
Thought i don't have to download the whole zip since dwonload ist that fast on samsung opensource :p

Anyway, here's the commit https://github.com/andi34/android_k...mmit/284a43db0549fae752707907f09ac1afb655f6fb

Will upload an TWRP for you guys here later to test. Be patient :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pi_key:
easy to say :p

but how should the fix be applied then?

will there be a new recovery and ROM version to flash in combination with a wiping?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-Andi:
I am just running an SlimLP build for testing.

TWRP is ready, but to be true: we used software keys there always :p so... it should make no difference :D

because the file that got referenced as a workaround to completely disable the "hardware buttons" / BLN to prevent all this rebooting is not available anymore :crying:

TWRP won't boot into system :/ need to look at it, but existing twrp 2.8.7.3 works fine

Edit:

Seems like a kernel issue since advanced reboot also broken inside rom.

To fix advanced reboot i attached a flashable kernel for you
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mativo:
Hi, [MENTION=5153662]Android-Andi[/MENTION] : It looks like you already have incorporated the two files into your kernel. Thanks.

I also uploaded the two kernel src files I used to re-build the kernel.

In addition I re-compiled the Novafusion-Kernel based on their sources and toolchain and created a zip install

package using the aroma installer, inspired by the F_kernel package.

I should be able to just flash it using twrp and follow the installer steps.

First test it using the devices where buttons don't work. Note that if you test it using devices with

correctly working capacitive buttons this may turn your device in a device with new touch sensor-firmware

which most likely will no more work with the previous kernels. I sccessfully tested this kernel with both types of devices.

Update: As some people are asking: The updated kernel is for novafusion CM 12.1 ROMs and should work well. Please download and install the zip file only (novafusion_kernel_patch_v1.zip) using TWRP. When the aroma installer runs just hit next/ok. There is nothing to select/choose. I just adopted the installer for the kernel install purpose.

You don't need the kernel-src-fix-tc360-touchkey.tar.gz - This is only for the ROM and kernel maintainers to update the kernel of their ROMs.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-Andi:
Wonder if someone tried my latest slimlp, lol.

Buttons still work here, like before.

I do have this device with this problem so if there is any way I could help with testing I would do it, but i'm not that reactive I can't test at any time. With that said, should I just flash the kernel [MENTION=6949316]mativo[/MENTION] uploaded? Or the slimlp from you [MENTION=5867871]android andi[/MENTION]? And if I want to do that, will a normal backup backup also my current kernel in twrp? Really happy to see this issue finally got (started to get) fixed. Sorry for my grammar, seems that this last sentence isn't built very well but can't figure out how to say it with proper english. Also, I'm just a noob so, asking me to test will be ok but I will not be able to help you in any other way :( .
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mativo:
You can use the attached kernel novafusion_kernel_patch_v1.zip to be directly installed using TWRP. It just replaces the kernel of CM, not the TWRP kernel. I only tested this kernel with the current Novafusion CM ROMs.

But backing up the whole CM before should be a good idea.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoBble12:
I'm going to spare some time for that maybe sunday, i'm going to try it with my current ROM which is omni rom. There is almost no risk with a backup so... Hope it helps for further info about that bug. And about the final fix, maybe you could try to do a guide to change these files for every kernel for every people to be able to use the kernel they like no? Just a suggestion :D

I will report as soon as I try it!

ÉDIT 1 : Ok! I was so impatient That i tried it yesterday and well... It works as a charm! Maybe we should wait for other feedback but I think you fixed it!

Trying to understand the conversation above, you thanked andi for incorporating the files to his kernel, and he answers that his own keys work well after that... Does that mean that the two files you uploaded above work for absolutely all the devices? If so, we should just wait for the devs to make the change and it would fix it for everybody? Now I don't know what to do lol. Keep this kernel which does not meet my need but has capacitive keys working or restore the old one before I can have it with capacitive keys ^^. Anyway, thanks for the work you put in it!

EDIT 2: [MENTION=6949316]mativo[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5867871]android andi[/MENTION]? Still someone hère?

Buttons now working in CM12.1

Thanks everybody for finding the bug and providing a solution: Both buttons (back and menu) stopped working with non-stock kernel.

The provided novafusion_kernel_patch_v1.zip works with CyanogenMod 12.1 by NovaFusion . Specifically I installed cm12.1_golden.nova.20160210.ODIN_TWRP.tar.md5 , rebooted, verified that the buttons are broken, rebooted into TWRP, installed the patch, rebooted and verified that the buttons work.

:good:
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoBble12:
Yep, the buttons are working again but be careful, I had a bad surprise using this kernel a few days ago, it doesn't support offline charging so always be sure your phone is on while charging it... Going to work with 5% is never a good idea... :(

For me until [MENTION=6949316]mativo[/MENTION] or [MENTION=5867871]android andi[/MENTION] post the full solution it is 1N4148 kernel back with nav bar... nothing moving since at least a week here and this kernel, exept for the buttons, isn't really a good one... and I can't help sadly. can't wait until I know a few about android, right now I feel like a reaal noob here people are just so incredible :silly:

Anyway, yes, thank you everyone, as you said, the work on that is incredible
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mativo:
I confirm that offline charging does not seem to work (butI didn't even realize this). I just used the latest available Kernel for this device from Novafusion that I found on GitHub. I may or may not be their latest one.

I think I can't help here either. The Guys that create the appropriate Custom-ROMs need to incorporate the two updated files into their S3-Mini Kernels. So it depends on which ROM you use and whether the kernel files get fixed in the ROMs to get a "final solution".
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoBble12:
Hey [MENTION=5867871]android andi[/MENTION]!

I don't know wether to post here or on the thread of any kernel and i'm sorry for disturbing, but could compile this any kernel with the files for the "bad device" please? I miss so much space on my screen because of that nav bar, so now that the solution is found, i'd like to use my device to it's fullest.

Thank you for all your work, I really find it all incredible, continue make us dreaming with your projects !
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebasamm:
Hi everyone! I have the same problem with my s3 mini and CM12.1 by nova fusion.. The rom is great obviously but the only way that I manage to use my phone is to edit build pro and put a line there to make soft key appear on screen, honestly looks great that way and it is more comfortable but still I feel that I need those capacitive keys.. So I was reading the thread and found that you've upload two files to fix the problem right? My question is, what do I do with those files, I mean do I have to flash both via twrp? Do I need to make a backup of the rom or something? Cuz I don't know if by flashing those files my phone will be factory reseted.. Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mativo:
Hi [MENTION=6362225]sebasamm[/MENTION], you just need to flash the novafusion_kernel_patch_v1.zip file attached above using TWRP. This just installs a patched Novafusion-kernel that should make you capacitive button work. I hope we get the Novafusion team to patch their kernel directly. Until this happens you would need to flash the novafusion_kernel_patch_v1.zip after every Canogenmod update by Novafusion that you install.

And to be on a safe side I always would recommend to backup your data inside TWRP ...
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoBble12:
Hello! From what you say, you don't seem to be very used to this kind of manipulation, maybe you should wait a little for developers to fix it on their roms (I'm currently trying to direct devs to this thread to make them aware.)

Secondly, you have to know this kernel doesn't support offline charging (charging while phone is off).

Thirdly, I'm not sure this kernel is made for lollipop... Maybe I could try it and give you some news?

finally, If you really want to do it now, just take this http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3637899&d=1454881710 file and flash it in recovery. Be careful and make a Nandroid backup before doing anything, this is a kernel, so don't mess up with it. (Doesn't support overclock neither so no big risk but anyway, backup. For the moment I'm using nav bar on my phone also running CM12.1, and I am really exited about all this being finished in a few months (hope it will be sooner but... let the time to devs, they have a life as we do!)

EDIT :eek:ops.. didn't see there was a 14th page. sorry.

Can I tag here most of the devs I know to make them aware of that fix?

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebasamm:
Hey! Thanks for your replay.. So if I have to flash that patch everytime I update the rom that wouldn't be a problem, but my question is as I ask before, do I need to make a nand backup of the rom before flashing that patch or can I just flash it directly? Do I have to make a full wipe or a dalvik/cache or something? I ask this because recently I update the rom but I had to do it like it was the first time flashing it because some error the phone gave me so I don't want to lose everything and start all over again, you know installing apps and etc. Thanks!

Hey thanks for your replay as as well, but I only have one question for you or for any other who has the answer.. Offline charging as you said before means that the phones doesn't charge while is off, so it doesn't matter if your battery completely runs out if you connect the charger it will turn on right? I ask because that happens to me but I wasn't sure why that happen!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoBble12:
[MENTION=6362225]sebasamm[/MENTION]

Hi!

YES do a nand backup, it's always better.

Then flash the file, and wipe cache + dalvik cache (lollipop is using art but don't know if it affects the dalvik cache somehow so wipe it it's better). It means you will lose no data at all.

Yep if your phone runs out of battery putting it to charge will turn it on. Happens to me too, on lollipop ROMs it seems that phone always turn on while plugged so it's not a problem

EDIT : Tried to flash it but it is only for 5.0.X roms and CM12.1 is a 5.1.1 Rom so went into bootloop. Be careful! trying to reinstall right now.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snooks75:
S3 mini i8190n

My home button has been pretty much useless since I updated rom around last September. Its very intermittent. Using cm12.1 for about a year now. Will this patch work for the home button? Why are there 2 files and what's the second file for? If I get bootloop and my home button is really broken and not a kernel glitch, how do I boot into twrp? (Volume, power and home)

And as always thankyou.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WoBble12:
@ snooks75

Hum... that seems pretty bad :/

maybe there is some app somewhere to test all your keys, or a number you should call to check that... maybe you should in fact shutdown, and try the combo to get into recovery. If it works, you will go to recovery, and from here reboot to the rom. in this case, you would know that it is a ROM/Kernel problem, and if it doesn't work, it would be a hardware problem. Anyway, do not try to flash the kernel, as I wrote before, it is for 5.0 and you are running 5.1, so it's the best way to get a bootloop.

EDIT : /!\ WARNING! what I said before is completely false! This kernel DOES work with CM 12.1! It's just the description of the Aroma installer that made me doubt! However, I'm not mativo, I'm not a developer or anything else so I don't have the knowledge to affirm that it works with other 5.1 ROMs. Always backup your ROM for the moment until the fix is known and used by every developer

I would sadly say it's a hardware problem, because i'm running CM12.1 right now and my home button does work, contrary to my capacitive buttons, which do not work for the moment as there is no patch for the moment for 5.1 (they DO work with the patch!)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mativo:
No, it's not a hardware problem. It's a firmware problem in the kernel. Several phones have a different capacitive touch sensor firmware that's incompatible with the current shipped kernels from Novafusion.

For the aroma installer: As long as you use the kernel for an S3 Mini and Novafusion CM12.1 ROM don't get confused with the aroma installer messages. I just adoped the installer to install this new kernel and may not have corrected all text messages of the installer. Sorry for that, but I'm also not an experienced Android developer.

The S3 Mini ROM developers would need to patch their kernel sources and include it in their ROMs. Then the patched would become obsolete.

Hum, I would have agreed if [MENTION=6521116]snooks75[/MENTION] had spoken about his capacitive buttons but for the HOME BUTTON to me it Will not be fixed by your kernel, because I have tested a lot of KK,JB and LP roms and my home buttons has always worked, it was only about the menu and return keys that were fixed by your kernel

Thanks for your help. I think my issue with the home button will be a hardware problem although I couldn't be sure. I've been using an app called "my home button" for months now which puts a home button in notifications.

S3 mini i8190n Capacitive buttons FIX

Hello I had the same problem but now I have the fix it without problems :) this is because once you have flashed the recovery ROM for the phone. You forgot to remove the battery from the phone before trying to start the phone in recovery mode and this creates the problem of Capacitive buttons do not working.

The solution is to flash back to your backup or the stork ROM and launch the phone up and wait for 5 minutes, until the Capacitive buttons works again. then start it up in recovery mode and wipe the old system again and then install the new ROM again. Remember to wipe Dalvik cache and cache after installation and then just reboot it into the new system and then the Capacitive buttons should work again.

It worked for me so let me finally hear if it works for you too :)
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FZG-87:
I am also affected by the problem. Custom ROMs disable my capacitive buttons, stock works just fine.

The problem seems to be rather rare, as I barely found anything on the topic, so I am glad to have found this thread right here!

My question: Will the Kernel patch offered above work with versions newer than Novafusion CM 12.1? Or is somebody willing to develop a similar kernel patch that works for the newer versions of CM/Lineage? That would be awesome!

Model: GT-I8190

Country: Germany

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrickTop01:
Doesn't work, tried it on the 6.0.1 lineage by novafusion.

found temporary work around by activating the touch screen buttons using build.prop editor, but would really prefer the actual hardware buttons.

Open your build.prop using build.prop editor app (in /system)

press the pencil icon and then scroll down to the bottom

on a NEW line add qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

then press enter to add a new blank line at the end

Save & reboot
