Buttons suddenly stop responding - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

hi..
I've got a huge problem with my imate jam.
Sometimes the buttons stop responding. The touchscreen keeps working just fine. I flashed my jam to rom 1.12.00 WWE but that did not solved the problem. After soft-resetting my jam the bottons will respond again but i keep getting the same problem within minutes! . Does anybody know what to do?
tia!

maybe it's something you've installed??

i only got gsplayer and bluetoothtools installed...

I've had it too but only a handful of times. A real pain when pressing the hang up button and nothing happens.
More often I get the "service command not recongnised" error that causes the soft key hang up button in the dialer to fail.
When the two happen together I have to soft reset to hang up!!! Not fun!

Leeeeon, the problem is GSPlayer. There should be an option to switch off button mapping in GSPlayer itself. You will notice that this will only happen if GSPlayer is open.

I had the same problem with BTools ver.1.1 (if I'am not misteking) without GSPlayer installed. There was an info that 1.02 work better on Magician but as for me, after that bug I don't want to experment with btools. I have gps, headset and ASync nice working with ms bt stack.

it might just be bluetoothtools! Yesterday i uninstalled it and i havnt had the problem ever since! Useually i had to reboot my phone for like 5-10 times a day.
Lets hope it wont come back for a few more days.. then im sure its solved...

Magician X-Files :: some buttons don't work/respond

T-Mobile MDA Compact
T-Mobile ROM
R 1.12.00
G1337.42
D 1.13.00 WWE
Quirky prob. The directional buttons, center button, and the contacts button all don't work at all. Odd. I opened the casing with the 'bad sound' tutorial as a guide, cleaned the contacts, no effect.
Strangely enough, the call and end call buttons weren't working either till who the heck knows what I did. Now thery work perfectly.
I mean honestly, this is some supernatural behavior. Tempermental hardware buttons? I need Scully on the scene now.
I can work around it, but can think of other things I'd rather do... like use the phone normally.
Not expecting much, given the strangeness factor(tm) but any help much appreciated.
did you use TCPMP?
i've had same problem after this player.
No TCPMP, or atleast...
Not that I know of, unless it's gets installed by default in the extended rom.
Here's another strange bit of behavior. Every 5 mintues or so, the 'contacts' button gets 'virtually' pressed twice. Whatever is assigned. Even though tHe button itself doesn't seem to work
Furthermore still, after the phone comes back from standby, the call and end call buttons don't work until I press another button first. Then they work fine.
So farm the directional pad doesn't respond to anything, neither one in the middle.
I don't know whether it's a hardware prob or software at this point.
Phone has both wwe and radio 1.13 and all the extended t-mobile apps intalled.

Buttons are dead

Hi all
The buttons on my wizard suddenly went dead, not even scrolling works anymore. It must have been some software I installed, but I dont know which. When I recive calls the buttons seem to work thou. The phone buttons light up and I´m able to hang up using the red one. But not recive calls with the green one.
I have WA2 WAD, PhoneAlarm, TotalCommander, MagicButton, Smartkey, omapclock and some others. Is there so way I managed to switch them off myself by accident or whats going on? Contemplating a hard reset.
Anyone else seen this problem?

I have a simular problem: sometimes my phone buttons don't seem top work anymore. In fact they do work, but my Phone screen doesn't appear anymore. After pressing some other hardkeys and starting some other applciations the screen reappears again... Anyone had the same problem (or better: a solution)?

Some hardware buttons won't work!

This is my first post and I must say that this is a great group of people who know what they are talking about!
Anyways, I have had my 8525 for about two weeks and I am loving it. For whatever reason some of my buttons do not work! The dpad works but the two soft buttons, the start button, ok button, email, PIE, and the green and red buttons don't work. The power, scroller, comm manager, the left ok button and the PTT all DO work. I did a hard reset hoping that would fix it but no luck. I been installing and trying a lot of programs but I thought after the hard reset that any program that screwed this up would be gone. Please help I love this phone and really don't want to take it back.
Thanks,
Dan
I took it back and that solved all of my problems.
you took back , what?
i am having the same issue with a HTC Tytn.

My hermes has a similar problem, buttons under the screen sometimes won't work, but if I turn off backlight and turn on, it works... but not very well because if I press green button then red button continually, buttons don't work again after few pressions....
I have changed my ROM but it's the same, it isn't a hardware problem because if I turn the scroll it works again...
This problem is known?
Thank you very muche for your help and sorry for my bad english.
same issue with my TyTN...
Same issue here with Tytn, buttons won't work but if I use scroll button a bit then buttons work again.
Hey guys,
Exactly the same problem here and it's infuriating when I'm trying to make calls on the run and sometimes I can't even pick up calls.
I have an I-mate Jasjam ROM 1.31.305.2.
If anyone has any fixes or solutions that would be great. Or do I have to send it in for repair or something?
So has anyone managed to fix this? Anyone tried a hard reset?
I have no idea how to diagnose the issue and even whether it's a software or hardware fault.
Jasjam- Same here
Also my screen turnes white some times

I'm also having these problems with the front buttons not working. Very frustrating. The problems seem to be platform independent.
I really cannot believe this. When I used the search function I noticed so many people are having these problems with the TyTN, and no resolve.
It's my second machine I received from HTC, first one also had these problems.
HTC sucks BIGTIME.

2.19 fixed my complaints. I can make this happen and not happen and then happen by simply flashing the 2.61 and then the 2.19 and then the 2.61.
since this thread i have done a hard reset and that seemed to solve my problems. i think over clocking played a part in it. then again it could have been my program combo. who knows... whatever, its gone. My current config works with the exception that every once in a blue moon the touch screen doesnt respond after being locked for a long period of time. i have to use the (*) on the keyboard for it to come out of hibernation.

Lock key and backlight problem (B7610)

First I noticed that my Lock button doesn't work anymore. When I press it, nothing happens. I thought it's a bug or something so I flashed different Roms but the problem still exists...
it is not a hardware problem, because i can hard reset my device normally.
When the phone goes to stand-by mode, it stays off for one second and then it turns the screen and backlight back on. That runs my battery out quite quickly.
I have searched forum for this problem, but did not find any answer.
Is there a solution for this??
the same problem here!!!
have someone an idea?!
I've had the same problem with my Omnia i8000.
But my Phone will come back on only if I am listening to Music.
Does this happen to you while listening to Music ? If Yes, then just turn the volume one step down. Thats a workaround I've found for my phone.
has anybody fixed this issue on their omnia pro yet?
i am facing the same issue, the screen is always on as the lock key doesnt do anything....the only time the screen shuts off is when using the touch music player after 60 sec.(backlight setting when phone not on external power)......screen turns on when the song ends.....hard reset to factory settings doesnt fix the issue......plz help if u hv a solution figured out....thnx

Amazing... You are my lifesaver...I have been facing this problem since last one month.
Your idea worked for me but can you tell why this problem occurs? and this is a temporary solution...Is there any permanent solution to this problem?
Greetings to all. I had this problem for a while. I solved it with 2 programs - the first is AEButton and the second Smart Lock. I mapped the W&L button to "lock device"(AEButton). After that going to SmartLock ticked: Lock screen and then stand-by. In this way I used the W&L buttons as lock key. Worked for me, hope it works for you!
P.S. I am using custom rom without the touchwiz interface, I dont know if that makes any difference!
EDIT: It fixes the issue partly...the screen pops out every 20 seconds or so.... Seems to me it is a hardware problem. Flashing with different ROMs doesn`t seem to work.
