Hi, welcome to the Samsung Members Canada community. Unfortunately, there is no possibility to change the button functionality.

This is a common issue with samsung phones starting from Note 9 up to Note 20 Ultra and others. Please check this reddit post here. On a different thread here its also affects Samsung Galaxy S10+. Also, on here you can see it also is affecting the Samsung Galaxy S20FE 5G. I haven't posted yet but I am having this issue as well. Therefore, it's a common issue with samsang phones (not tablets). This is relate to accessibility on samsung, that's all i know.

I'm having a similar issue with my Gamesir G4pro controller. The update to Android 12 / OneUI 4.0 has done a number on the touchscreen overlays in the Gamesir and Mantis apps, and wreaked havoc on game controller performance in Android and Switch Pro modes. In Switch Pro mode, everything works but the trigger buttons. In Android controller mode, nothing seems to work in games. I tried clearing my cache and shutting all my accessibility services down, to no avail. Xbox emulator mode works, but only with the wireless USB dongle plugged in. Please advise!
