[Q] LG L7 II P715 - Keys not working - LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II

Hi.
I have been using LG P715 for about a year now. Suddenly this morning, the four touch keys at the bottom have stopped working..
I have downloaded a key emulator app as its temporary replacement. The back, home and settings keys are working. But, there's no sim switch button on the emulator.
However, there's an option for sending in an Android keycode from the app. Can anyone help me what the android keycode for the sim switch button is ?
The app which I am using is called "Button Savior"

Soft Key buttons don't illuminate: Alternatives?

I have an LG Optimus ME P350 Android phone that has a soft key for a back button, but I was wondering if it's possible to use the touch screen to go back instead of using the soft key? For example, when using Android 2.x I go into the default sms app and there is no onscreen button to go back, so I have to use the soft key button.
The reason I'm asking is because the soft key backlight doesn't illuminate when the touch screen is pressed, so at night when I am in the SMS app and I want to navigate backwards, I cannot even see the 'back' softkey because it doesn't illuminated. The soft key backlight only illuminates when you press them.
Here is a photo of the LG Optimus ME P350:

Go to market and search on screen softkey, there are several app for you to choose.

By on screen software do you mean this?:

This is just a keyboard for SMS. It does not provide a back button that applies to the entire phone and all Apps. For example, when I play a game and I want to go back, that keyboard won't be displayed will it?
In CyanogenMod there is an option to show screen softbuttons in "Improvements for tablets"
But I think you should go with your phone to service or something like this cuz using screen softbuttons is more like a workaround than the solution

How to Add multitask button to the Phone / Change button functions?

I have a nexus 4, the right most button on the nexus 4 is the multitask button, showing all the running apps.
Today i ordered an LG optimus e970 for my brother since it was on sale and i noticed that to show all running problems, i need to hold the home button and that's very annoying. The rightmost button on the optimus is just settings button.
How do i change the functions of the button and make the rightmost button the multitask button?
Can custom roms like cyangmod change it?

Custom ROMs will let you edit short and/or long press cap keys for home and menu. So yes, it can be done.

None of my buttons work, not even power button!

Hey guys, I was editting the Generic.kl and build.prop to disable the capacitive keys and enable on screen keys and I did everything right ( I did this a few weeks back and it worked perfectly) but then my home button, back, and recents button stopped working. My volume and power buttons don't work either so I can't click home to go back to my home screen and I cant power own my device. Does anyone have any ideas what to do? Will a factory reset do anything? Thanks
EDIT: Nvm guys, I fixed it by using NFC on my Nexus 6 to beam a restart app to my GS6 so I could install it through the Play Store and opened the app straight through the Store and the restart fixed it.

Back button, recent apps not working

Hey there
this is not my phone, its my friends phone
So phone's back button and recent apps aren't working.
He said he didn't do anything nor did the phone fall.
Phone is not rooted.
Any idea on how to fix it ?
Or any alternative softwares for recent apps and back button ?
@MJ999:
Back-function by tap on right capacitive button?
Recents by long tap on hardware-home-button?
So simple home and left menu-button work?

To ask again: One swift tap on the hardware home button (= home) works fine?
I'm not aware of any app to replace these functions that work without root. With root you could use e.g. LMT Launcher and use it to simulate the button pushes.

It's the capacitive touch that isn't working, it doesn't illuminate.
He is saying he got an app from Play store, but only limited to back button.
On the keypad type *#0*# to open the factory test menu and press "subkey". The screen will go black. Now press the menu and back capacitive buttons. If the screen changes colour you have an os issue. If the screen stays black you have a hardware fault.
I wish I stole my HTC M9.
