Hello!
I know this is an ancient post, but the button fell off my P7Pro as well, and since this pops up in google I thought I'd leave a few notes.
If you look closely at the button, you'll notice that one of the inner sides has a blue-ish tab, and the other one doesn't. This tab helps keep the button in place in the device, but it seems that the factory glue is not durable enough. The missing tab is most probably still in your phone in the volume button slot, and you'll probably need a needle or very thin pliers to pick it out. Be careful as it's super tiny.
Now when you look at that tab closely you will notice that it has a flat side and a beveled side. The flat side is the one that should be glued to the volume button. If you have a friend that is into building/painting miniatures, this would be a good time to ask them to glue it back, as they are probably more used to handle such tiny parts and have better equipment. Otherwise, read on.
In order to glue it back correctly, I used some modeller glue(Revell contacta) because it's slower to dry and the needle-like part makes it easier to apply just enough glue. Any similar glue should do, and I'll advise against using instant glue as it dries too fast and the residue is harder to remove if you don't make it the first time. The volume button also has a couple of standouts to guide the tab in the correct place, so it shouldn't be too hard to glue it. Just add a tiny amount behind those, make sure the flat side of the tab is facing the glue, and push it in. Let it dry for a few minutes, and then you can try sliding it back in the phone by fitting first one side and then carefully pushing the other downwards and inwards.
Good luck.

If the external volume button on your device has fallen off and needs replacement, here are some general steps to guide you:
- Assess the damage: Examine the button and its surrounding area to ensure there are no other issues that need attention. If there are any loose components or damage to the internal structure, it may be best to seek professional help or contact the device manufacturer for repair options.
- Locate a replacement button: Check with the device manufacturer or authorized service centers to find a genuine replacement button for your specific model. They may have spare parts available for purchase. Alternatively, you can search online marketplaces or electronics stores for third-party replacement buttons that are compatible with your device.
- Gather the necessary tools: You'll typically need small screwdrivers, tweezers, and prying tools to disassemble and reassemble the device. Ensure you have the appropriate tools before proceeding.
- Disconnect the power and remove the back cover: To access the internal components, turn off your device and remove the battery (if it's removable). If the back cover is not easily removable, refer to the device's user manual or search for specific instructions for your model. https://nachrichtenmorgen.de/

I saw some pixel pro 7 volume buttons on AliExpress website. They're really cheap or inexpensive I should say. I had the volume button fall off on mine and it's so frustrating! I also read a review that mentioned the little tiny rubber piece that goes with it which is good to know. I'm hoping it's still stuck in the phone. I'm hesitant to order from any third party vendor but I don't know how long I can go without a volume button. Thanks to Google for the design flaw on an $900 phone. Frigging ridiculous. Here are a couple more places to try:DHGate and SaleHoo
Goodluck!

I also ordered buttons from AliExpress hoping that the product was legit. I was pleasantly surprised when I received the order. Not only was the product an exact match to the original it came with the teeny tiny rubber piece that keeps the button from falling off. I popped it in and boom I was back in action. I'm going to reorder a couple of backups because I'm sure eventually the button will become loose come out. Also wanted to mention that not only was the product exactly what I was hoping for but the price was $3.36 total... that's all. Other vendors on the website(AliExpress) had them for anywhere from $7-$20 and I decided to go with the cheapest and I'm glad l did. Don't get me wrong the other pricing is still better than I thought it would be. I imagined replacement buttons being 50 bucks or something which would have been a freaking joke. Anyway I am very happy and sorry I rambled on 😄
Super Bro, can you share the same link
