I tried seaching through different threads, but couldn't find the same topic, so please forgive me if I indeed am repeating an already listed thread...
I'm extremly happy with my TyTn, but one thing which is DRIVING ME ABSOLUTELY NUTTS AND UP THE WALL, is the so called "lazy keys" on it's qwerty pad. Sometimes is doesn't respond and other times it doubles/triples the letter..
Are any of you having the same problem and do any of you have a solution to this?..
Any helpful answers would be highly appreciated!..

I am having the same issues. CAN ANYONE HELP WITH THIS?
I have got the same problem but have learnt to live with it but a fix would be great.
mine does it too but i think it's a memory problem. when i begin typing it will not show anything for a few seconds and then BAM there all the text is.
my solution is simple.. i know it will eventually show what i typed. so when it starts to lag.. just keep typing man and it will catch up.
that case is OK. I'm referring to a key being totally unresponsive unless I press really hard or somtimes a key kinda "sticks" and doubles/triples the letter...
It's stopping any quick typing as you finish a word only to see that it has doubled or missed out a letter in the word!!!
If anyone has a solution, even if it means taking the dang divice apart..
i took mine apart the other day for this problem
it looked all fine
i cleaned out the membrane and the board that the membrand touches
worked better for a good 2 hours
and then right back to the problem....
we need a permanent fix lol
my c button is unresponsive now. It seemed fine using Black Majik but its started playing up on Black Satin.

Laz Keys
Fellas, I've switched from the Black Majik rom to the Black Satin rom and now all of my kes are responsive as on my old device. I don't know if this is a permanent fix since I've only had this rom for a week or so, but I will update the forum in another week.

I can understand different ROMs affecting the overall responsiveness of the keyboard. However it does not make sense to me that different ROMs would affect the responsiveness of certain keys only.
I would certainly urge folks to be sure their problem is one of specific individual keys only before attempting the physical fix in my post above. In other words be very sure the problem is NOT one of a laggy keyboard response due to ROM/software.

Just wanna share my test....
I got lazy keys on my Dopod 838 Pro also after upgrading to official Dopod WM6 ROM. At this time I had more than 1500 SMS stored. Since the lazy keys were affecting on SMS/Email writing and not on other apps, I was thinking whether the problem is related somehow to this huge number of stored SMS.
I deleted all my SMS and directly afterwards the keyboard is responsive again.
Can't validate this as I need to wait for my SMS to grow again to see if the lazy keys problem returns... but maybe you can check from yours if you have huge number of stored SMS/email.
I have been having teh following problems with my X1 and just spoken to O2, have arranged an exchange. I could probably do some reset on it and sort the problem, but since I am still withint the 28 days period, why the hassle?
- Phone loves turning itself off, not the screen, but the phone itself.
- Passcode playing trick, half of the time even I entre the correct code, it won't unlock my phone, and says wrong passcode.
- Installed apps can't be found even the successfully installed message shows up.
- none of the games I have installed works or else won't work to the full screen.
- Google Mail won't work after installed from the Google website.
Anyone eles have the same problems? Or is it just me?
as of now maybe just you mate, maybe something you have installed. maybe try to hard reset just to find out and if nothing happens then exchange it. it's worth the try mate and tell us what happens.
My Xperia has a faulty headphones socket I returned it to where I got it from, then they sent me another one. And guess what that had a faulty headphone socket as well.
When the headphones are inserted nothing happens. Also the headphone icon does not appear.
Any Ideas ??
A hard reset is a good idea, or I might have to wait forever for the phone to arrive, always out of stock... what is SE playing at?
I have tried hard reset and it dosent work
It seems to me that the X1 has so many little problems as I have heard / seen, this si my first WM phone, so can't compare... nearly sold my X1 for an iphone (I am a Mac user), but no, not worse the money.
maybe xperia phones are selling well, lol.
go for the hard reset mate.
@brut3forc3
maybe its the same phone, lol
if not return it to them again and ask them to check the unit in front of you

Or rather push stronger the mini jack,
it normally stays on some position, the last fragment has to be pushed a bit harder.

hard reset won't solve the problem of your headphone problem mate, its a different problem
If you have problems with your X1s either
A) take them back to your supplier,
B) use the SE X1 support (theres a little silver card in with all the documents).
If the device is turning off (completely) then it's a hardware fault, have you checked the power settings?
funny enough, I had exactuly the same problem (phone turning itslef off) with my SE W960, sent it in for repair, nothing was found... I bet it would be the same this time, maybe I just don't have those so called "technician hands" I work in technical support and very often with the head technician touches certain things, they work!)
I have checked the power setting, nothing is wrong, just weird... maybe I am just unlucky.
Like other replies suggested, a hardware reset would probably do the job, but since I am still within the 14 or 28 days period, I would rather not take the risk of having the same problem again o day 29 where I would have to send it in for repair than having a new handset...
My biggest gripe with this phone is the double tap/ click bug or feature.
It appears that even while the screen is on and the back light is off, when you tap the screen it turns on the backlight and then you have to tap again to perform an action.
1 - never had that problem
2 - never had that one either
3 - Sometimes it does that, but it's the app's fault, not the phone's.
4 - Games are working fine if you install the "arm" ones adn the ones that are for ppc. The resolution is not a problem of the phone. It's just that the phone is new and not many game manufacturers support it. Yet.
5 - Idon't use Gmail sorry

Xperia X1 is one of a kind, a new breed of HI-RES WVGA devices. Check if those games are compatible with WVGA resolution or exchange your Xperia for an archaic QVGA device

Hmmm... you don't need to download the google app at all, that's for older, slower, low-mem devices.
I use google all the time
1- Open gmail's web page in Opera browser
2- Set up your gmail account in Mesages, it is autoamted and works a treat !!!
IN CONCLUSION: I think your phone is OK. Mine never turns off, never freezes, never hangs up
I've had the diamond, tytn etc and let me tell you this phone is far more reliable than those previous devices...
Don't blame the phone, blame some app or tweak you have done
May I suggest you to hard-reset the phone and start installing your apps, mods and tewaks one by one until you find the faulty one
Remember: this is not a simple "phone": ithis is a computer with Windows.
You wouldn't be blaming Dell if your PC becomes unstable after adding some programs/apps/games that are not suitable for your, let's say, video graphics card as an example
I have somewhat of a problem with mine 2.. It doesn´t seem to play any of my mp3´s that i put on it,but wma files work just fine.. Strangely it plays the mp3´s that were on it when i bought it.. Any idea what the problem might be??
Well, I have changed the setting abot teh power, still happening, nevermind, a replacement is coming tomorrow, so I guess I will just start fresh again. What do they do with these faulty phones? Do the fix them and sell the as reconditioned at a lower price or sth? How about those unwanted return? Just a matter of interest.
Gday all.. Think I have received a clone of a HTC T3232 from ebay, its even in HTC covers, how bad's that! (dispute in progress).
It does not respond to the HTC reset method (volume down & enter while switched off, and the small reset button at same time) so I can only presume its a clone.
Anyway the main problem is screen calibration, its out by miles, I cant even use the slide bar down the right hand side of screen.. I have done the calibration about 20 times via display settings and it does not help, the best reset I can do is via the clear memory tab in settings, that didnt fix it either.. Im not sure what its issue is, cant even figure out what sort of phone these "ripoff merchants" have sent me..
Any help would be much appreciated & thanks for reading my post

I think (and I could be wrong) that its volume down and enter then the power button for the touch 3g.
yes I tried that to, doesnt seem to work.. this is why im wondering if this thing is a HTY or something similar to a HTC, in HTC covers.. quite a letdown ..
the digitizer is miles out of wack .. is there a chance this is a rom issue or would the touch pad its self be shot ?
I've read somewhere about a clone having a different brand processor, check your system information:
start -> settings -> hardware
The real thing has the qualcomm 7225
Try to download an official rom update from the htc website. You will have to enter the serial-number of your device. If they deliver the download to your pc, you can be pretty sure it is not a fake one...
Is it not vol+ vol- and the power button all at the same time for hard reset?
Ok thanks guys, getting somewhere but its not all good, it has a Marvell pxa300 624MHZ CPU
one of the first things I tried a few days ago was updates from the HTC site, and it did NOT accept my serial number, so I think its a clone for sure. so my question is, will origional HTC software work on this clone if I download it from this site, OR will it not work because of the different processor ?
Should I even bother flashing the ROM as the opsys seems to be working fine, just the digitizer is out by miles, I ran DigItest last night and the screen was not always responding in the correct spot, correct maybe 50% of the time and the other 50% of the time it was miles out. almost NOnresponsive around the edges of the digitizer.
The seller I got it from also sells digitizers for this model lol.. I have to wonder if he didnt try to repair this phone from new, maybe a factory second or something ..
So guys whatya think?, flash rom, or grab a new digitizer from the 3bay ?
You got a clone for sure. But if you have buy it for less money i think its obvious its a clone. I got a clone too but i'm very happy with mine. No hardware issues for now, only some hard resets. I think you cant put a original ROM on a clone or can you? Btw in the phone info if for the model you got T3238 then you can be 101% sure its a clone
P.S. Btw the clone dont have build in GPS.
ok, yeah its t3238.. im prety sure it has inbuilt gps, they a$$ured me it did, but anthings possible im yet to test it coz the digitizer screens annoying me to much, dont want to even attempt to try and use it until I fix it.
Dont think the HTC rom works but im not 100% sure, im not used to these phones & there ways yet, still pretty much learning !
well, did you buy a clone or did you buy the real tough 3g? what did the presentation look like? i mean if the presentation lied to you, you did not pay money for the clone but for the real thing. then you might be able to redo the contract with the seller... maybe... good luck!
found the clone!
http://www.cectunlocked.com/OEM-HTC-Touch-3238-3232-Quad-Band-Phone-with-Windows-Mobile-6.1-WiFi-GPS.html
well...
ahh its a spitting image of a HTC, its in HTC covers, with HTC written all over it, apart from one spot I found inside the rear cover its clearly marked HTY.
The seller I used on 3bay told me it was a HTC not a clone, his discription was very deceiving. The phone turned up in a HTC box, with a HTC disc & HTC instructions, batterys and all other accessories INCLUDING THE BOX lol are all origional HTC products, apart from the phone its self! .. the phones a cheap ripoff - in a HTC box. go figure..
Still wondering if it needs a digitizer or the rom flashed..
I've also recently received a 3238 model which i believe to be cloned. It's in Chinese and i want to flash it to English but am unable to perform a HardSpl. If i hold down volume and press the on button i just get a screen that says ''USB update mode'' nothing happens if i try to run v4.1. If i try to run a new ROM i get error [206] unable to connect. Anyone have any ideas on how to get an English ROM onto it? Any advice would be much appreciated!
thers a seller on ebay that has the english rom for them, but he wont share
otherwise i dunno, HTC need to sue them
he did tell me its "over 60mb" .. i couldnt find it, getting really sick of the site of chinese to english translations! lol..
.. im going to buy a case of bourbon - stuff this phone, I hate it
.. LOL !!
IT WASNT MENT TO BE THIS WAY

So! There is the fact! He did not give you what you have bought! He did not fullfil the contract! Give him a deadline to send you a proper HTC Touch 3G, afterwards cancel the contract, get the money back and get a proper one by amazon or some other good store.
Next time when buying a clone, do it directly here http://www.china-phone.org/ or check here for nice clones http://www.clonedinchina.com/.
Loool! I think the fake HTC 3G has an even more powerful CPU then the real one !?
Can that be?
624MHz vs. 528 MHz - I'm not too familiar with cell phone CPUs but 96 more
fake real
I'm glad I read this thread. I'm looking for a Jade, saw a T3232 that was a good price on ebay, then spotted it had dual sim
HI 79, there is no contract I bought it outright, a damaged claim is in progress so effectively this phone wont cost me anything , hopefully Now i just have to save the phone from the bin !!!
DUAL SIM ? .. This clone does nOt have dual sim, its exactly the same layout as a HTC 3G .. very hard to pick from a HTC inless you have seen a HTC before, you wouldnt really spot the difference..
I think mine may have a faulty digitizer, Not the Rom.. Whos with me on that ?.. As the digitizers not to expensive and the jobs not that hard, im thinking of giving it a go, could be easier than trying to find the rom ?..
U guys/gals think its worth a try or should I wait until the roms up and try that first ?

I cant even get to that screen with that method so im wondering if either your clones different to mine, OR maybe yours is a proper one ?.
Does it have HTY in small letters on the inside of the the back cover by any chance ?
It doesn't say HTY anywhere on the phone but if i run my finger over the HTC part of the lettering on the battery it is slightly raised, seems they've craftily painted over the original lettering. I've compared the phone to a real one and it is slightly bigger in size. The phone actually works really well, don't have any issues with it, just want to get it into English!!
I just went on ebay to check the prices on the Jade. The ones that are $200 are obviously clones. The real ones are atleast 350+. I was able to get mine for 320 with the 8% from live checkout
Hui all xda-developers.
I'm a knew member in here, so I will first say hi to all members .
As my title says, i cannot Hard-reset my phone (HTC HD2/LEO).
The hole thing is a big story, but what the hack
First I brooked my screen, then I tried to change the screen, but without problems. Then after to month, I did make an Password for my phone, because of privacy thing on the phone. BTW, the phone changed the password itself .
I talked with HTC, and they says that it is a bug in the phone, and the only way was a hard-reset, (But when i clanged the screen, i did broke the volume up and down button ) - then they gave me a price if they should make my phone 4000 Danish krone's ........ I will not give 4000 DK, I have All ready paid about 5-6000 Danish krone's for the phone!..
Is there someone in this forum that can help me? I all ready have searched Google and so on, talked with so many people, but all the time they say 'Hard-reset' ..
I seriously don't no what I have to do, maybe it is possible by USB cable :S
So your main problem is that the phone changed the password and not you cant hard reset right ?
This happens a lot even there is a thread about it somewhere. Try to remove the sim card and the sd-card then enter your pin code.
Or if that didn't work you can try to flash an official ROM for your device via USB, But since you broke the vol rockers and your phone is locked I'm not exactly sure how you'd go into bootloader nor connect in ActiveSync mode. Give it a try, it may work
Welcome to xda!
I think that the HD2 section must be overwhelming for a starter... and the search function can deliver confusing results.
However, as the phone has already some major on-market time, most problems you might face have been discussed sometime in the past, that is why I do recommend you to use the search function with simple search terms.
Now, about your question:

He already knows how to hard reset
But his vol's are broken, that's why he's asking
Mate if you broke the screen and the volume key buttons then why on earth are you trying to reset the phone?
Fix the hardware first and then deal with a hard reset. If both those items are broken then there really is no way to hard reset the HD2. I wish you the best of luck but it looks like your HD2 is really dead...

I'm trying to reset my phone, because i cannot find those hardware\main board for the phone on the Internet? (Those wires in the phone, that goes to the volume up and down)
If you can recover an Nokia (something) without an hard reset, then why can we not do it on an HD2 ? Do you no what i mean >?
^^^ Yeah, my bad. Missed the whole point that the hardware is completely broken. And a password issue.
Anyway...
