My Shift keyboard is playing up. i think i may have damaged it when i changed the HDD. some of the numbers are not working along with a couple of keys on the top half of the keyboard.
Does anyone have one they would like to sell?

Hello,
I have a Telus branded P4000. Since I had It,one LED in the bottom left of the screen that was always full on - so there was a brighter part always on my screen no biggie.
Today I took apart my phone to see why the DPad stopped working. After I put it back together (done it many times before), I noticed my dpad still not working, but my screen was uniform again?!?!?! no one bright LED. Nice. Take what you will from that.
After that my SD card stopped working. Is that a loose connection I can check? which connection would it be? (plan on checking it over again tomorrow).
Also is there a fix for the dpad not working? all the other hardware buttons work, just not the dpad.
I am guessing since you checked the connections that the dpad is just broken and will need to be replaced. Also you have one lcd with a backlight the bright spot is a manufacturing defect not one bright LED. Most of the time the bright spot will come back and get bigger.
yep I think you are right on the nose.
is there anywhere I can get a dpad?
will one from a titan, mogul or 6800 fit into my P4000? I'm guessing so just want to make sure.
and if you have hook ups let me know
Any pad other than a xv6800 pad will work.
thanks go one on order now
So still no d-pad.
Got a brand new one. Still no d-pad, every other button around it works no problem. But the d-pad does nothing. I can feel it push, but nothing happens.
Is this a software issue? I don't want to wast money on this if it's not going to fix it
I have two HTC 8525's with Windows Mobile 6.1. They both are having the same funky keyboard problems... sometimes they work perfect - sometimes they don't. Sometimes when I push any key on the slide-out keyboard it will only activate the start menu. My only option out of this is to use the screen keyboard. The screen keyboards malfunction often as well... the delete button will stop working and my only way around this I've found is to change screen keyboards (from keyboard to letter recognizer or vice versa). Honestly, I know just enough about HardSPL's and upgrading ROMs to be dangerous. Maybe I fried it... but, any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I've had about 4 Hermes and never had a problem with the keyboard. I presume yours is a hardware problem but out of interest exactly which ROM are you using?
Hi,
I've got a problem with my HTC Touch Pro... Last column of keys on HW keyboard (except enter) doesn't work... Do you think it is possible to be caused by some software trouble?? In the other case is it possible to repair it without help of service? I'm using EnergyROM WM 6.5.
thanks for reply
Hi,
most probable it's a hardware problem. Normally, after a couple of years, frequently used keys tend to become unresponsive or at least need a heavy push to work.
You can find a brand new keyboard + tools on ebay.
Sounds like it is a break in one of the lines in the ribbon cable connecting the keyboard to the mainboard. The reason the 'Enter' key still works is because it uses two contacts the other being in the adjacent line. On a Touch Pro it is twice the width of the other keys. Either contact will be decoded by the keyboard controller as 'Enter'.
You might be able to source just the cable on its own, if it has a connector at both ends, otherwise it will be a replacement keyboard.
I was wondering if anybody else had problems with touch input that where skipped or missed. The way it acts it is like I don't touch the screen. Other times when I'm dragging it acts like I've lifted my finger. It sucks when trying to use the keyboard because I have to go extra slow to makes sure all the keystrokes are showing up.
Thanks.
Sounds like the touchscreen issue?

Thanks. I'll check it out.
So im looking for a keyboard that physically attaches to this phone, (im looking to upgrade my Tmob My Touch Slide 4G, yes there is swype, but try writing code in swype.. anyhow so im looking for some options for attaching a Bluetooth keyboard, something i can keep with the phone.
I was envisioning a large version of the MyTouchSlide4G or the Motorolla Droid 4, perhaps something like this
I have seen these things however - looks like you would need to use 2 hands or have it on a flat surface while typing as nothing holds up the screen while you are typing... if you were to hold the keyboard with one hand the phone would flop over.....
Something like this would be ideal but nobody seems to make something like it for the galaxy note 3
suggestions anyone?
