hey guys i have a g1 with rc29 in it, a little while a go i dropped my phone, and the slide out keyboard command stopped working so the phone doesnt know when the keyboard is open. and the backlight of they keyboard went out as well. the keyboard still works when i press buttons, but i had to reset my phone to factory settings and now i cant get passed the "Slide Keyboard open to continue" when i want to sign in, because the phone cant tell the keyboard is open any more
Does anyone know how to skip this section, or a command to tell the phone that the keyboard is open?
thanks in advance.
You might consider just taking the thing apart and fixing the switch.
yaa i tried that last night, i just took the back cover off and all the flexcables where in place, there are 5 flexcables that connect to the motherboard and they where all connected, does anyone know what controls that switch ?
You are looking for a SWITCH, not a cable.
i took my whole phone apart even the screen and put it all back together. it was easier than i thought. but i still have the same problem, would anyone know an adb shell command that will tell my phone to change the screen orientation to landscape mode?? or perhaps launch the market app so then it would ask me to sign in ???
i got all the drivers installed and i was able to find some commands, to lunch the browser, maps, the phone settings and some other stuff.
same here everytime i would slide the keyboard the phone would freeze and crash.i even unrooted with the nbh file.i just ended up sendin it in to htc because it was still in warranty

Hi All,
I have got my Qtek9100 since yesterday. I already upgrade to ROM 1.6.7.1 WWE. Today I just tried to have some basic lessons on my PPC. When I tried to change to "phone pad" input mode from "Input Selector" arrow, I failed. My PPC just stays in "Keyboard" mode. I can change to any other input mode, but "phone pad".
Please help
Hello,
I have had this problem and still suffer with it on my JAMin, the fault with mine is the sim compatibility with the rom.
try and start your phone without the sim if it works then the next step it put your phone into flight mode and do a soft rest, once the phone has started then switch off flight mode.
it should work
I don't think the Phone SIP (Soft Input Panel, used to enter text) has anything to do with the phone part?
I'm having the same problem with the new leaked AKU 2 ROM. I can't use the phone pad, and also it takes like 20 seconds when I click on the arrow to change the keypad.
Any ideas?
I have just noticed that "phone pad" pull out appearance is more or less occasionally. For instance yesterday, after soft reset I have got phone pad. Today I didn’t have it in the begging, but after some activities it appears again. So I cannot tell what the case is after all. The good news is that I don’t use it at all, so it is more like curiosity that real problem. 8)
I dont know if anyone can verify this but I had Phone pad working fine after a hard reset a week or so back. After the hard reset I did the reg tweaks for Glyph and the other one 4096 or whatever. After that it takes forever for the menu to pop up and then phone pad dosent come up when selected. Anyone else apply these tweaks?
Funny I also ran into the same problem just last week. Phone pad don't show anymore, and menu takes a long time to pull up. I thought it was the software "CE Star" which I installed, but looks like it's happening to everybody.
Hopefully somebody will find a solution soon. This is annoying.
Same problem here. No ROM update here though. I've seen the phone pad application before though. I did a hard reset a while back for something I can't remember now, but ever since then....no phone pad.
I can choose all the other options, but the phone pad stays in keyboard...
Please someone find the solution, the phone pad is essential to a true "one-hand" operation...
same for me...
always stays on keyboard, going into text messages, virtual keyboard always comes up and i cant change it from the input in settings... it stays on keyboard and keeps popping up. i dont need it, i got a pullout keyboard in that qtek 9100!!!!! please anyone?
I've got the same problem with my Atom. Has anyone already found the solution?
What worked for me is using registry wizard to change default input method to phonepad and soft reset and phonepad will be available - I think it stays available if you reset back to keyboard as default. You can use pocket tweak to do the same thing
My MDA IS GOING CRAZY!! Every time I press the power button to take the phone off of the standby mode the phone seems to randomly just open up contacts and then try to delete one of the ones that are first on the list. Also the two soft buttons aren't working. the keyboard, some of the letters aren't working either, and every time i press the left softkey on the keyboard the menu on the right always opens up when I am on the internet. For some reason it just started acting like that when I increased the size of the cache. This one time all the keys worked for like 5 minutes the other day, then they went back to not working. I already did a virus scan and nothing came up, so yea. I am willing to pay if needed to the person through paypal, whoever helps me fix up my mda. NEED HELP!!!!
Have you tried updating to a newer firmware?
Are there any magnets in the immediate vicinity of the MDA?
I know it sounds crazy but even the magnet on the included t-mobile case can do things like switch the screen to landscape or bring up the calender.
It's just a thought and a possibility.
nope no magnets, and the rom is the 2.6 one, the newest rom, dunno what wrong with the phone, im willing to pay to fix it up. whoever helps me fix it up, i will pay them.
if i were you, (thankfully i'm not because i have had enough problems with my XDA!! lol) i'd do a hard reset, but i'll assume you can't do that because of the mind of its own issue, so power down the phone, and leave it on charge so there's atleast 50% battery in the phone. meanwhile, goto the t-mobile website and get the latest rom (or re downlownload the rom that's already installed...2.6 i think u said?) and try to upgrade using bootloader. todo this, hold the camera and the power buttons until a funny screen comes up, run the update utility, and then plug in the phone to the firewire cable (then onto the usb) on the first screen of the program (if that makes sense). then run the update utility and that should work.
there's no reason why it shouldn't. i had a similar problem with a se w800i about a year ago, and it turned out a button was stuck down, so check that.
i hope you get it sorted, as i kno how frustrating these phones can be.

Ok, you need to give more info. What IPL/SPL, Radio, version, etc. etc. What other steps did you follow? Downgrade to 1.08 unlock? CID unlock? Upgrade to 2.26? Then flash whatever ROM you are using...and which ROM is it? What other apps have you loaded? How old is the phone? Who is your service provider? What is your bank account number? (ok maybe we don't need that one haha) What SD card are you using? Have you dropped the phone?
--M
uuh, i haven't dropped the phone at all. Its unlocked, and I changed the network settings so that I get unlimited internet and other data transfers for free. I have Tmobile prepaid. Other than that I am going to try to hardware reset it, tried it already, it didn't work. So, I will try to update the rom, the phone is unlocked, so if I update the rom hopefully it wont become locked again.
It won't become locked again, it sounds like a hardware problem it is most likely a button or key on the keyboard is getting stuck and/or shorting every so often causing this behaviour.
Have you recently loaded any apps? Maybe changed the key settings? Deleted a file by mistake?
How large did you make the cache? What program did you use to change the cache? Did you change anything else besides the cache?
uuh i made the cache to 4 MB and I did change the settings for the IE but I changed them back, I used Resco Registry Editor, also I went to this website to find the registry tweaks http://www.pocketpctweaks.com/pocketpc_tweaks/
Then I went to the 2 performace tweaks:
http://www.pocketpctweaks.com/pocketpc_tweaks/speed_up_your_pocketpc
http://www.pocketpctweaks.com/pocketpc_tweaks/increase_performance_speed
I also did this one on the IE using Resco Registry Editor:
http://www.pocketpctweaks.com/pocketpc_tweaks/change_pocket_internet_explorer_6
Other than that I haven't done any other ones, I tried overclocking by using a software called Omap Clock, but that software sucked, it would be overclocked for a while, and it would return back to the default speed whenever I would press the power button to put it on standby.
if i were you..
if you are willing to pay for those who ever fix you phone, i'd rather pay my nearest service center to fix my device.
hi commuity!,
since a few days i have been having this problem where thought i dont touch the screen or the slide or even for the matter when the onscreen touch keyboard is not active, where ever there is a text field .... an unstoppable number of oooooooooooooooo keep appearing and keep going on though i press back space.
when i switch on my phone it automatically goes to phone dial mode and starts over again .
but the interesting thing is that this does not happen when am in a non text place like the file explorer or any other program....
the only work around i found for this is hold the windows key till the menu pop ups and then the ooooooooooooo stop and i can navigate my phone.
again when its released the oooooooooo continue again and some times there is a gap...meaning it starts randomly...a span of upto 5 min for the trigger...
i am totally paralyzedly... i cant enter contacts nor make calls or anything... i tried soft reset,hard reset and even flashed 6.1 and 6.5 in vain
i would really appreciate if someone could help me
Maybe that's hardware keyboard bug? Try to clean it near the "O" letter
Hi all
first post and i got an interesting problem with my phone which i qualify as stupid. It all started when when my virtually keyborad started becoming unresponsive and when i tried to do a factory reset, i could not enter the 1234 number to start it. i left the phone for a while and then i could not get into the setting even . But i could receive calls but i could not call since i could not access any numbers on the dial pad( by pressing on the numbers of coruse but from dial log screen i could)
Anyway long story short while fiddling with the phone , i thought the lock feature was on that is why some of the touch functions was not totally responsive but to my sadness, i activated the lock and now the phone is stuck on the front page and i cannot access anything since i must press unlock at the far corner of the down screen but stupidly, while pressing on the unlock, since it is unresponsive, i cannot unlock the phone to get to the normal menu and so on.The only thing working is the square pad which tells me to press cancel then unlock to free the phone for normal use
By the way the lock feature is the one that blocks the phone so that you do not accidentally press on the touch screen and activate a program and not the lock thing operators put to limit your phone
I want to know if anyone can help me unlock the screen so that i can reset the phone or alternatively any other method via usb to reset my phone to factory settings. Any special buttons on the phone i can do to do that?
I tired leaving battery out for 24 hours but that did not work to unfreeze the touch buttons
Was thinking to reload the windows mobile completely via the micro card (which i read here) but i am not sure it will work or i fear it might brick my phone
Any suggestions will be welcome please.... thanks
Use myMobiler to control device from Pc through usb
Good luck
Ps: you'll probably have to change digitiser afterwards
Well tried the mobiler but the thing is that it asks the phone to allow the program to conenct and i cannot press yes on the touch screen since it is frozen or something so i am stuck again.
Very strange, it doesn't ask anything on my device...
Why don't you hard reset: press green and red buttons and while pressing, poke the stylus shortly in the reset hole then release the 2 buttons. It will ask something that you probably won't see, just press the action button and wait for it to restart.
Don't flash another on just yet - it may well cause issues as it sounds like your digitizer is broken. Don't hard reset either
Does it pick up anything at all? Have you tried tapping all over the place in that region to try and get a response, sometimes just under the screen also works. Do you use a screen protector? If not, try it with one, if yes, try it without, it may be interferring with it, or it may help the touch be picked up by the phone (Stupid, I know, but this is something I found to work before with my elfs, and omnias)
When it is locked, is activesync picking the phone up? You may be able to put the remote.exe into the windows folder (for myMobilier) and do it that way.
A digitizer costs about £6-£10. But due to the age of this device, as sad as it is, I would suggest trying a new phone out if funds allow for it.
ok so far i tried the hard reset (red button and green and pressed the on off button but nothing. When i press on off button alone it switches off but not hard reset. I did not know i had a reset hole at the bottom of the phone.I did that with red and green button but nothing. Only when i poke the hole alone it does a hard reset i think but when i switches back on it is still unresponsive and locked screen
I tried poking under screen protector nothing. Also i think screen is still responsive because when i tap on it, the screen lights brighter
I tired putting remote exe file on the phone( active sync is working and i can read files on the phone) but i have two remote files..which one to use ? the one that ends with 40 one or 50 .Also where to put it specifically..which folder.I tried my windows mobile based device but nothing.Also tried program files and data application nothing.
Mobiler cannot connect since from pc alone because it asks my phone permission
and i cannot tap yes to accept program.
so any more suggestions please
Hi
Maybe I wasn't clear enough, here's the exact procedure, it should work since you have to use only hardware buttons:
Hold down send/reject buttons (green/red at the front) and reset with the stylus; release the stylus but keep holding the buttons till you get 'this will erase all your personal data' message, then press 'action' (big front button) to hard reset.
If Hard reset doesn't work then your device hardware is faulty.
If he hard resets he will liekly not be able to align the screen on initial setup tito12.
Avanisha. If you try to run one of the remote.exe it will say this is not a valid windows application, thats the one that needs to go into windows on your phone.

Hi captainstu72, i was under the impression that he messed up something in his system so a hard reset would hopefully solve the problem. In case he still can't align the screen after HR then he has to replace the digitiser. Mymobiler will not solve anything, pls read the 1st post: he wanted to do a factory reset. He just have to sync before HR.
thks tito 12..problem was solved with your help.J ust did not get the steps of hard reset right. Phone is working ok now and screen is ok as well as tap function. thank god i don't need a digitizer. thanks to captainstu72 for the help as well .You were right tito..seems i ran a program and then all hell broke on my phone. I wanted to factory reset but as you know the pad was locked.
Glad I could help, enjoy your device
Ahh okay, guess i mis read something! Sorry
Glad its all sorted though, I was just concerned he may end up in an annoying align screen loop
Hi everyone,
Whenever I press Control-Alt-Delete on my bluetooth keyboard, my phone restarts. The only problem is that my bluetooth keyboard is a multi-device keyboard which I also use at work with my business computer, and my business computer needs me to use the Control-Alt-Delete combo to unlock it. So, what will happen is that I come back to my desk, hit Control-Alt-Delete on my bluetooth keyboard, completely forgetting that I had switched to my phone before leaving my desk... and my phone reboots, which is pretty infuriorating.
So, here are my questions:
Is this behaviour normal? I've found this link here: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player...external-keyboard-shortcut-keys-documentation but that's for Android 4.4.2 and is supposedly only supposed to reboot the phone when it's at the home screen, but I can confirm that this happens whether I'm on the home screen, in another app, or my phone is locked.
How can I prevent this from happening?
Thanks
