Okay I have a quick question...My R button is acting weird. It is not actually stuck. That is, it is not actually stuck in the down position. But when I play a game, let's say I'm playing GTA: LCS, the R button is the handbrake right? Well it acts like I'm holding the button down when I'm not touching it. Is this the same thing as when you talk about the "sticky shoulder buttons"? I wasn't sure since mine isn't actually pressed down but it is acting like it is. I opened it up to see if I could tell if any part of the actual button was sticking but I got nothing. It seems like an electrical problem but I really wouldn't know since I know nothing about that kind of thing. I would really appreciate it if you could help me out. Thanks a lot. Great guide by the way.
This stuck r button also causes the guy in doom to constantly move to the right and prevents you from using the home button, and causes some homebrews to not work bc of all the key inputs they are getting.
By pressing it repeatedly, the problem goes away, but comes back again shortly the next time you use the button. Once again, the button itself doesn't look pressed down in the slightest. So it doesn't appear to be stuck down at all. But who knows maybe it is.
This actually seems to be a releatively common problem. It happened to drew86 over at lik sag, me, and I ran into 3 people over at the lik sag forums that had the same problem, and another person at the ign boards forum.
No one knew how to fix it.
Can someone please help? Has anyone else had this same problem?
Has anyone managed to fix this problem? Thanks.
