Followed a rooting process, no longer have soft key functionality (N900W8)(Latest FW)

Hey everyone, I'm fairly familiar with rooting phones, been doing it since the Galaxy S2. I have an issue however, that I've never encountered.

I followed the rooting process on this page:
Root N900W8VLU2DOC4 Android 5.0 Stock Firmware On Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900W8 - Simple Tutorial

After the initial booting of the phone, I no longer have soft key functionality. This makes navigating the phone incredibly difficult.

I have a temporary fix - the 4 square icon that you enable in the accessibility menu that gives you access to the menu and back button.


This is not a HUGE deal as I plan on trying different kernels, recoveries, roms, etc. But the functionality is a problem if I ever plan on restoring my backup of the original (now rooted) firmware.

I've seen a couple of posts on here already about the soft key problem, however they have no replies.

Hoping someone can help!

TIA,
Mike
