Possibly the contact, which is used to detect if the keyboard is open, might not be working.
Mikechannon is the hardware guy on the hermes and im sure he will come across this post at some point
ok thanks but the thing is that i didnt replace to i guess the guy who did it is goin to have to fix it
Hi
I don't have one opened up in front of me but yes Mrvanx has it I think. One of the multi connectors is either un-plugged or not pushed in fully. There is one that is quite liable to "pinging" off unless it's firmly pressed home. No guarantees but I'd be fairly confident that that's all it is. The guy should have checked it after the repair!

This is the likely culprit. It's easy to forget to press it home as it curls itself round on its mylar cable and rests on the connection (ie looks connected but may not be pressed into the connection). Good news is that it's not a major dismantling job. All it needs is the back off to reveal it.

First be sure it's not just a lag in response, that might be a software problem.
Before assuming a hardware issue - do a hard reset. If it persists with no additional software then it is likely a hardware matter.
You may have a loose connection to the keypad module - it has a rather delicate push in connection with two tiny screws.
You might need a new module:

this is the TyTn version.
I'm not sure if you may be covered by manufacturer's warranty.

My phone got wet, so I stripped it down and dried it out. Put it all back together and it's been working fine apart from the keyboard now does nothing when I slide it out - screen doesn't go into landscape and the keys don't do anything.
Does anyone understand how the keyboard slide talks to the phone, ie how can I troubleshoot the problem?
Thanks

Sounds like the keyboard connector is loose. And of course the sliding mechanism magnet switch is connected through the keyboard multicable. So the two things are related.
The Source of your problem I think:

Just inside the back casing, so no major dismantling needed.
Just for info:

This happens if there is even a very momentary loss of power. Before assuming anything too complex, I would check to make sure the battery is absolutely firm against its contacts. You can insert a strip of card between the casing and the battery. See here:

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",

}
If the problem remains, then I would suspect one of the internal flex cables.
Mike
thx for fast answer mike
testing now ^_^
i second that
I had the same issue with an extended battery. I used some duct tape to make a tighter fit and havent had any problems since then. I guess a strip of card is a better idea, but duct tape seems to work (plus its more manly ).
Hi all. My elfin's On/Off Button seemed hard to trigger since couple of days and is there any solution to resolve it? Attached is the screenshot of the On/Off button. Thanks in advance.

you meant to disassembly it?
Well, you may have to dissemble it.
My elf has the same problem with the on/off button. I opened the unit and the problem is that the little switch on the circuit board has failed because it's not springing back after it's been pressed . The switch is very small and looks difficult to replace. The camera and reset buttons use the same type of switch, so I'm considering removing the switch used for reset, and soldering it into the on/off switch position. However, as I mentioned, the switches are very small so I'm worried that a heat gun or soldering iron will damage the board. Anyone know an HTC parts supplier that may sell these little switches?
Hello Guys.
I got some problem with my 3.5mm jack, so I decided to order a whole new tape with USB connector and 3.5mm jack port.
http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/mRfGTPTIX7tNp0yCo0_JEmQ.jpg
Got the package with small toolkit to open phone and change this thing by myself.
I've followed instructions from one of many youtube DIY movies.
New parts got installed, everything went pretty well... then closed phone. Turned On... and here I em...
Power button doesnt work, I see no light around the power button, no screen reaction... But I hear that phone turned on because of LG logon sound. Phone reacts while pluged in to charger, USB->PC too.
Attached picture with exact conectors I plugged off while changing parts inside.
Why power button doesnt light up? Why doesnt work? Is there some small connector between power button and the board, because I dont see any, there is a Toshiba Chip just beneath the power button/volume part.
Please help me, give me some advices what exactly could get wrong.
