Hey everybody, this is my first post on xda :D, so please don't flame me with " Wrong category " replies and stuff like that.

I own a Sansung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300T. Everything is fine with it, except for a stupid little volume up button. Before you jump to conclusions, the volume rocker is not the problem. What I've done is removed the volume rocker and used a pin to press the ACTUAL VOLUME TACTILE BUTTON. The volume down works perfectly, but no matter how much pressing, depressing, and holding, the volume up tactile won't do jack s***. Ive had to make do with just pressing down then using the on screen slider to turn it up. Frustrating.

I haven't modified the Android (4.3 Jelly Bean) or installed a custom kernel or anything like that, everything is OEM

Anyway I could fix this myself?

Thanks for your support,

Polarixis
