I know you said you already solved this but let me comment for the
archive.  I have these bindings and they work in the terminal.

  (global-set-key [home] 'beginning-of-buffer)
  (global-set-key [S-home] 'end-of-buffer)
  (global-set-key [end] 'end-of-buffer)
  (global-set-key [S-end] 'beginning-of-buffer)
