    You can capture hardware key button events by using accessibility service, only you need to enable the service by going to accessibility settings after installing the app. Here is the code

        public class AccessiblityService extends AccessibilityService {
    
            @Override
            protected void onServiceConnected() {
                super.onServiceConnected();
                Log.d(TAG, "service is connected");
            }
    
            @Override
            public void onAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent accessibilityEvent) {
    
                Log.d(TAG, "onAccessibiltyEvent" + accessibilityEvent.toString());
    
            }
    
            @Override
            public void onInterrupt() {
    
            }
        // here you can intercept the keyevent
            @Override
            protected boolean onKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
                return handleKeyEvent(event);
            }
    
             private boolean handleKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
                int action = event.getAction();
                int keyCode = event.getKeyCode();
                if (action == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                    switch (keyCode) {
                        case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN:
                            //do something
                            return true;
    
                        case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP: {
                            //do something
                            return true;
                        }
                    }
                }
                return false;
            }
    
    } 
    

    manifest.xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        package="com.mypackagename">
    
        <application
            android:allowBackup="true"

            android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
            android:supportsRtl="true"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
            tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning">
            <service
                android:name=".AccessiblityService"
                android:permission="android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE">
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService" />
                </intent-filter>
                <meta-data
                    android:name="android.accessibilityservice"
                    android:resource="@xml/accessibility_service" />
            </service>
            <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
    
                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                </intent-filter>
            </activity>             
        </application>
    
    </manifest>
    

    accessibility_service.xml //create it in "xml" directory

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <accessibility-service xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:canRequestFilterKeyEvents="true"
        android:accessibilityFlags="flagRequestFilterKeyEvents"/>

    Yes, Android's activities only receives KeyEvents when they have focus.

    The only way to "globally" capture a back button press is creating an InputMethod so you can intercept hard key events. Remember that using your own InputMethod will not allow you to use custom keyboards like Swiftkey for instance.

    Did you try to reach HTC on this issue?

    If you just want to capture the event of changing volume regardless of volume button is pressed or not, this answer would helpful.

    any way to detect volume key presses or volume changes with android service?

    A Service has no UI so it doesn't receive any input from the User.

    Now if you had an activity that managed the service then you could make the service do something special when the back key was pressed while in your activity.

    You can broadcast the keyEvent from framework and handle the broadcast in your Service. But you need change the code in framework for this.
