Team,
I have an issue with a friends Cingular 8525. The buttons below the screen only the center button (with up, down, left right) works none of the other buttons work can you suggest a way to fix this? If there is no way can someone point me to where I can source a new keypad?
Thanks

My 8525 buttons on the bottom (below the screen) have stopped working. The two softkeys work, as do the call "green" and end "red" buttons.
However, the dpad and center buttons do not. I have searched the forums, but without any luck.
Any input would be greatly appreciated, info on phone in sig.
Is there more information I could give to get an answer, or has noone run across this?
Please don't tell me it's hardware.
I'm getting annoyed of this. I'm having a hardware issue. When I press the green answer button, it doesn't work I tried remapping my softkey buttons so I can use my left softkey to activate phone. Just now, my left softkey doesn't work. I tried getting a edge of a notepad with a sticky side trying to grab the dirt if it is dirt. That didn't do anything. Anyone else sharing my pain and running out of button?

Haven't heard of this before! Do you actually see dirt around the buttons in question? How did dirt get there? When you press the green phone hardware button, the phone doesn't activate? Now the left softkey doesn't work? Are these the only buttons that don't work? What about the camera, voice record, comm mgr buttons? How long have you put up with your issue? Did this just start, or been going on for awile? It could be the result of corrupted 3rd party software installed that's giving you these problems. Have you installed any software pertaining to the phone ie: contacts, call history,etc. these kinds of software?

i've been flashing 15 different roms. All my buttons work except that one. I figure that the button just failed on me. My 1 yr warranty is over and I'm not sure HTC will do anything about this.

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.
Hi,
my P3600 has a problem - pressing call and hang-up button as well as ok, menu and 2 function buttons on the top keybad do not work.
However, center and direction buttons do work.
This happened before, then worked again, now happening again.
Any ideas anyone? a HW problem or a ROM / hardspl problem? (tried different roms same thing happens)
thanks for your help.
Needs a bump
Just bumping the thread cause I have the exact same problem on my phone. I had it in my camera bag on a hiking-trip this weekend and I think either it was pressed against something or the moist got it. The center buttons still work, but I dont think its on the same connector inside.
Hi guys, I have a problem, since my 1 year old got hold of my hero - the accept call, menu and trackball centre buttons do not work,
I have taken the phone to bits, had a good look round the button pads and they are all dry and look fine.
Does anyone know where I could get spares or have had the same issue?
Thanks
Mark
