A_BUTTON doesn't work after uploading Arduboy Gamepad

Hello, Guys.
Today, 20th December 2016 i have uploaded Arduboy Gamepad Sketch to test it.
When i have uploaded it i noticed that it doesn't work well.
After i have installed ArduSnake to test it , I realized that was not working the key A_BUTTON

What i have tried :

Clean EEPROM;
Disassembled Arduboy to test hardware;

What i think is the problem :

When I was hacking with Arduboy Gamepad I "accidentally" modified settings by assigning anything to A_BUTTON and now I do not know how to restore it Help me please ...

Regards.

Easiest way, would be to re-download the Arduboy library, that should restore all of the settings.

Does the A button work with the Buttons example sketch included with the Arduboy and Arduboy2 libraries?

File > Examples > Arduboy2 > Buttons

File > Examples > Arduboy > Buttons

No, it does not work the same @MLXXXp

If all the other buttons work but the A button doesn't, then it looks like a hardware problem.

But this morning I was using them all and they were working, but immediately after installing arduboy gamepad something has changed ... @MLXXXp

This method doesn't work any other ideas ?

An older sketch can't affect the operation of a newer loaded sketch except through values in EEPROM. The Buttons example doesn't use EEPROM so all the buttons should work.

Just to make sure I'm following the conversation correctly.... You said that uploading a new game does not resolve the A button not being recognized, correct?

All sorted out boys, it was enough just to remove some dust from the button and press it stronger, thanks anyway
