Hi, just curious to know if anyone has experienced their soft key just randomly stop functioning until a soft reset is performed? The soft keys from the today screen that open up Calendar and Contacts would just stop working all of a sudden usually when the phone is wakened back up from standby(pressing power quickly not turning it completely off). I would appreciate all feedbacks/assistance/solutions.
Regards,
Keith
sometimes my soft keys won't work using the buttons but work with screen tap. i think its after running some application i have but not narrowed it down to which one yet. May be PTvncHI (terminal client viewer)
Hi
Yes I have this problem.
Its ONLY on the today screen.
My buttons do not respond to a screen tap or the buttons themselves.
I only noticed this problem after installing VITO Button mapper.
I have since disaled this app and will remove it totally when the rom upgrade comes out but I don't want to do a hard reset just yet.

I have noticed this happen after I run TCPMP, once I soft reset and before I run TCPMP again, the soft buttons work just fine.
If you've mapped some hotkeys in TCPMP, they might not work in other applications...
I wish TCPMP would fix this !!!
Thanks for everyone's input, I did map the soft keys in TCPMP....so I unmapped the soft key buttons(TCPMP) and so far so good.

HI! I HAVE A VERY BIG PROBLEM!! Do you have any idea what this could be?!?
Suddenly, this started; when I push the joystick on the phone or arrow buttons on the KB, the phone just starts clicking.... continuously, like I would constantly push the joystick or arrow. I get stuck in word, task, calendar or any other application I am currently using and need to do soft or hard reset. Even after soft or hard reset the issue is NOT solved. It seems that other buttons or screen does not cause this.
In addition: I am able to turn off screen and the clicking stops. When I turn on the screen the clicking resumes/continues.
Recently I am having problems with my phone, and am wondering if it is a software or hardware problem.
I have tried loading the TNT4 rom & WS5SE roms (this is a g4), and there is no change (im on the Tnt4 one now).
The touchscreen works okay, but the soft key buttons do not. The right bottom one is okay, the left one triggers the right one, the send button show the letters "uytga" on the phone screen when i press them, the end button shows "mn" or something, the camera button works perfect, the comm manager button is the same as the voice button (even when i map it with a program it says "button 4").
It even happens on the soft keys on the keyboard when i slide it out.
Also I used Start-sSPL to put the roms on. Is there a way I can get the OEM one back on or fix the button problem?
Any help will be appreciated.

I can use all my hardware buttons, and pocketcm keyboard
after a dozen minutes or so, all of the hardware button (camera, talk, dpad, volume sliders) stop working except the end key and power button.
also, the space button and backspace and enter buttons for pocketcm keyboard stop working
could someone PLEASE help, i have no idea what is going on
this started happening after I hard-reset my phone and installed my apps onto the clean device, so the device should be working very well right now..
any help is appreciated!
thanks

I have the same problem. Mostly with the dpad.
It all depends on what you have done to the device, mainly apps & ROM changes. If it's this way stock, get a new device.
What apps have you installed before this happened, and which ROM do you have?
Hello everyone, I recently got a Titan, and was installing programs on it, and one of the Programs I installed deleted everything, and somehow deleted my password, so now I can't use my titan at all. I've searched the forum on how to Hard Reset it, but haven't had any luck.
How do I hard reset my Titan?
hold down the two soft keys (Claendar & Contacts) and then reset.
Keep holding the solf keys down until the reset screen appears.
Then just follow the on screen instructions.
More important, what program did you install so we can all avoid it?
The program was GSlide - http://freewareppc.com/utilities/gslide.shtml.
are there any keys in particular? I've tried resetting it and holding a variety of pairs of buttons with no luck, or will it take several minutes for the Screen to appear?
[EDIT]
It just hit me that all the paper manuals are from my service provider, that's why they're all useless, and the actual manual was electronic. I just looked up Hard Reset, and it said very specifically for a hard reset you hold the left and right Softkeys (The two with only a single dot on them)
Problem fixed Thanks
Regarding GSlide
Hi
Sorry to hear about your problems.
I am the author of GSlide. I just want to point out that GSlide should risk free as it actually does not install on your phone. The odds that your device hangs permanently because of GSlide is very unlikely.
The standard implementation of GSlide is a file explorer and as such it is of course sensitive to user actions.
thanks

hold the 2 buttons with dots under the screen, then with the stylus poke the small hole on the bottom of the phone to reset it, hold the 2 buttons till the screen comes on.
Been a while since I have been on here. I miss my Wing so I decided to reach out to you guys and maybe you guys have a solution. Last year while I was still using this phone, my screen would flicker white once in a while, then that progressed into only turning on when I slid open the LCD screen slightly. Meaning that when it was closed, it was black, couldn't use the touch screen, I would have to slide it open to use it or I would have to slide it partially to use it while it's semi-closed. Then finally one day the screen just went black and doesn't work anymore. I know the phone still works fine because I see the keys light up and I feel the phone vibrating. I took it apart thinking maybe the band of the screen was loose or cut, but it was perfectly fine, I even took off the band and put it back on to see if it would make a difference, still no difference. What do you think it can be?
try a hard reset:
press both soft keys and while press the soft keys press the soft reset key by ur stylus for about 3-5 seconds and then release the soft reset key still pressing the soft keys. when u release the soft reset key some instructions will appear to format the phone mem. remember to make a backup of all important data before proceeding.
if this doesnt work then try updating ur ROM ... i find flashing my herald with flashcenter to be the easiest way. you can find the HOW TO here on xda forum

Click to collapse
Thanks for the reply, I tried a hard reset but it definitely is a hardware problem
