O2 Trion. Does anyone have similar issues whereby the keyboard will stop working? Even mid sentance, it'll just stop taking commands. However, if I press space, it will pull the start menu down. I have to soft reset to correct.
Cheers!

I have a huge problem with my MDA compact III. The problem is, I have to hardreset my device almost everyday. Thats because all of a sudden the device acts strange and won't open almost every program. When I softreset the device then, the device won't pick u a signal. In stead of showing how strong the signal is, it diplays a !. Also after the softreset sms, mms or my mailaccount is deleted. I have never spoken anyone with the same problem or anyone with a solution. I only have Windows Live Messenger installed, but many people have and none of them have my problem so that doesn't seeme to cause this problem. It's really annoying and it's getting worse by the day. Yesterday I had to reset my device 3 times(!).. If anyone knows this problem or more important, knows a sollution, please share it with me cause i'm close to driving my car over my MDA

Are you doing an actual hard reset where you hold the two soft keys on either side of the chome wheel, then hit the sunken button on the left side with your stylus while holding the two soft keys and then confirming with the green talk key? If so, sounds like a hardware problem.
No not using the softkeys. I always perform a hardreset in settings menu, i don't know how it's called in english but in dutch is called 'opslag wissen'. Sometimes I get an error saying cold boot could not be completed blabla and then i have to confirm to hardreset.
Tom
Sounds like you are using the 'clear storage' option. Try the actual hard reset procedure and see if that fixes things...thats how I do it.
I just performed a hardreset using the the softkeys. I hope this will make a difference and solves my problem. If not, my MDA gets his first swimminglesson and I'll contact my insurancecompany.
I'll let you know it worked out. Thanks for you're help

As far as I know, this 'opslag wissen' is the equivalent of a hard reset. So it should not make any difference, unfortunately.
no it didn't make a difference. had to be hardreset allready. going over to plan b, allready filling the bathtub.
If you do teach it to swim, however, please post pictures.
I have an 8125 Wizard with WM6 RC5.
The phone was working fine until about a week ago.
Now the smart keys do not work but randomly start working after I press the key on the left above the volume control...as if it activates them. The messaging and internet keys never work anymore.
On the keyboard. it works sometimes and sometimes it doesnt. When it does not all the keys work...a few letters do not respond.
When the phone screen is activated by pressing power button when phone is on "hibernating mode" the today screen opens...then after about 1 second the software configered to the Email softkey opens and then closes.
Can anyone help...I have reset the device using clear storage...would I need to Hard reset, will that help. I had battery status installed and it also overclocked to 247....could that be a reason. I have now removed battery status. PLS HELP

Two things:
First, remember this is a bulletin board. Sometimes it takes time for people to get around to reading your post. Sometimes, 50 people will read your post before someone will bother to answer, and even then, the answer may not be a solution to your particular problem.
Second, as you saw on the other threads, I recommend opening and cleaning your button contacts. People are constantly surprised by the need for this, but if you have anything resembling an active life, you probably need to do this about once every six months.
This is the most bizarre that could happend...every single time i type the letter L my mogul froze, it doesnt matter if its from the screen or keyboard still do the same thing and it doesnt allow me to do anything AT ALL!! it start with opera, now i cant even send txt message...this is really annoying..

I'm guessing hardware failure. Something failed on a board that's under the L key. Pressing it flexes whatever is failed such that it causes a short or opens a connection/trace on the board.
its time to get 'er serviced/replaced.

doesnt sound hardware because the screen does it also. Maybe try a hard reset.

how did you backup your contacts?
Sorry missed the soft keyboard bit.
My guess is corrupted word completion file, since it happens on the first letter.
I am having a similar problem with mine only when texting . I f I do a hard reset will I lose all of the registry tweaks I have made along with my aGPS fix? If so that would really suck.

this sounds like a possibility. if you're having this problem, try turning off word completion and see if the issue remains... may be able to rule that out.
it got worse..it got to a point that i couldnt type anything, not even see the keyboard on the screen..i had to hard reset and lose all my contacts...i install outlook to only backup my contacts but it gave me error message..really bad..now since i hard reset all synch goes fine...too bad i had to hard reset..
A few keys on the keyboard doesn't work when you just click it, you have to press down hard for them to work, and some of them enter in multiple times when i just press it once. Is it dirty or something, how can i fix this, outside of buying a new keyboard?
Mine does the same. There was a fix posted in another thread, but it doesn't seem to have fixed all of the problems I am having. I have to push ****ing hard on the period button for it to work.

Qwerty keyboard fix
They keyfix helped my problem with duplicate letters... hoowww arre youuu dooiing?
But, I had problems with certain keys not registering button presses. For me it was mostly the "Y" key. There is a thread over at PPCGeeks about this issue.
The keyfix does NOT fix this problem.
I am actually waiting on my replacement to arrive from fedex, got it replaced under warranty.
Call your customer support and let them know this IS a known issue with the hardware keyboard.
Enjoy your replacement.
Spray it wih contact cleaner. See near the bottom of this thread.

Verizon xv6800 slide out keyboard issues
I have some issues with the letters Q,L,O,A and Z. What seems to be happening is, when I push these letters in, it will come up with a little screen asking me if I use a different letter or symbol. For example, when Q is pressed, it comes up with a little window that says basically, do you want to use the @ sign or W. This only happens with the letters above. Everything else works fine. In the input settings, I turned off the enable auto correction and word suggestion. I even ran the fix and it still seems to do the same thing. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance
Mike
Q and P are my biggest culprits.
I just received my third replacement in a little over a year for this exact problem. Somehow everytime I've called about it Verizon still says it's not a known issue... It should be a known issue from MY replacements alone.
The keys that aren't functioning correctly for me are A, Cap/Shift, the blue dotted button (function key I guess), P, Del, the Right arrow, and that's pretty much it.
For example:
When i write a textmessage the keyboard sometimes doesn't recognize the letter i "press" and when i hold down and move my finger to other letters or buttons the device doesn't react. When i move my Finger up and "press" again everything works well. It's rare but annoying.
I have allready read this thread but i can't find my problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=595655
Have anybody this problem too?
I have the German 1.48 firmware. Maybe newer firmware-versions don't have this issue.
I hope it's a software problem...

It is a software issue, and it's one that's been reported on here before, but not too many people suffer from it. Those who do, suffer in degrees from it.
I too get this problem, but very rarely. If I'm, for example, browsing the forums here for a couple of hours on the train, then I'll get the problem maybe once or twice. It seems to last as long as I make it last - it stops if I just lay off the keys for a second or two, but doesn't stop if I keep trying.
For normal use (maybe 10-15 text messages and a few emails a day), I only see the issue every couple of days, so I've lived with it, in the hope that it will be resolved with the other little issues.
I hope this is of some comfort to you - at least you know it's not a defective device that needs to be returned
Thank you for this quick answer.

Yeah, I too get that, but sporadically.
Incidentally, if I shove my cat in the microwave and turn it on, is it only dead when I look?
Update:
I've called the HTC-Hotline an tell them about my problem. HTC was not sure if this is a software or hardware fault. So i've send the device to a repair service. After 4 days the device came "unrepaired back".
After playing around i found something out: When i put my Finger on the screen and the device don't response i can write letters with other fingers while my finger is on the screen. If i move this finger, no other letters will pressed and i can write the letter which i "tried to press" before. When i move up my fingers and tap the screen again it works again.
Some people reported the screen is more responsible in 1.61 but i don't want lose my warranty.
Have anybody who have this problem test the 1.61 firmware?
