Do you mean the joystick/controller pad? If it's broken, you need a new one... You can try using Buttons under Settings, Personal, or Hard Resetting if you think its a software problem...

Any hardware button that is not working is a hardware failure related issue. The last line of resolution you have is to hard reset and if still not working then you have a dead keypad and it as a device will either need to be replaced or the keypad itself, your choice.

Finding said part to repair the front panel buttons can be located on eBay, i picked one up for $15. It requires taking the phone completely apart just to get to that spot, but it was well worth it for me

(My front panel got crushed so every time something grazed the buttons my phone would go ballistic)
