Phone Button Problem.

Hello everybody, I am facing a strange problem. Some of my phone buttons have stopped working as they used to work before. The complete buttons on the front panel at times they work and at times they don't. The below mentioned buttons only are not working:
1. The Internet Explorer button.(Above on the right)
2. The Message button.(Above on the left)
3. The Call buttons. (The call picking and disconnecting button, below left and right) And the 4 keys along it.
And one more strange problem is the phone goes to the internet explorer by its own, at times when i open the phone it is on the internet explorer, though before going to the sleeping mode after getting locked it is on the normal screen but when i switch it on and put the password, i find it on the internet explorer screen. Pls help to resolve these problems, I'll highly appreciate you all.
The buttons would be controlled in the settings section.
But I have to agree about the IE coming up. I think its related to getting the phone out of the case on your belt and it presses itself - as it were. I've tried setting that button to nothing to see if that makes any difference.

Thnks for the msg. Can you advise where in the settings section the changes have to be done.
Regarding IE, i believe it is not due to removing and inserting in the cover. Even when it is removed from the cover, and at times if i press the key which is right below the contact(to open contact details), It opens IE and with the call button which is the green one also.
Pls help me, I never knew atleast with this device after spending a huge amount still i will come across such problem. I am really frustrated with the device.
Anybody pls help!!!!!
Regards Pankaj

This may be quite wrong but I'm just wondering if you guys have programmes running in the background. You may know that just tapping on the X top right does not close programmes down fully. You need something like Magicbutton or HTC X Button installed to quickly and fully close running programmes. If you don't have such an application installed then some of these hard keys may be responding to the background programmes. It would not surprise me in this case that Internet Explorer pops up because it's never been fully closed.
Just a thought.
And if you knew all this already I apologise, but it might be useful to someone who didn't know.

Not saying this is the cause of your problem but could be.
Magic Button shows running programmes and lets you fully close them:
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=7438
It will ask for you to register and give e-mail address but you do not need to, you can still download without doing all that.
There are other programmes like HTC X Button but this one works fine.
Mike
i have the same problem! maybe something funny is going on with JASJAMs... anyway, i tried pressing the IE button after resetting the device (soft reset) and it STILL says it cant find the location. it must be SOMEWHERE in the registry!
can anyone please help??

Can we assume that IE works ok when you start it from the Start Menu, and that it is only when you try to start it from the hardware key it does not work?
Mike
yes thats exactly right. runs perfectly! i'm wondering if maybe the entry in the registry has gone missing...?

Given the programme is working fine, this I think will be a simple matter of remapping the key to the shortcut/programme. Unfortunately it's late here, hopefully someone else can give you the detail. If not I'll check this thread tomorrow.

Go to Start>settings>Buttons>
Select button 2 and choose Internet Explorer from the drop down list below.
(If IE is already chosen then I would choose something else for button 2 (anything) tick to say ok. Try the button it should open whatever programme you selected. Now go back to the buttons menu and choose Internet Explorer for button 2 again.)
Hopefully this will work if not report back.

Busted keys on phone?

Okay, since my first post was dissed and people told me to get out of here, I have adapted to situation where I don't have external keyboard (one that slides under screen) but now I have problem that almost all keys stopped working on front side.
Whenever I'm receiving call, my answer button does not work nor it opens Phone-application when I press it. Also those two keys at top of green answer button and red hangup button does not work. Can anyone help me?
Same here!
Here u can find my desperate try to resolve this issue...
Same thing here...
It seems to be totally "randomness"...

Did u install third party softs ? (I especially think about SPB softs)
Actually I've Faria's rom.
But i tried to reflash many others roms & different versions... (black, lvsw...)
Also reflashed the IPL...
Also refreshed to olipro...

Do you have SPB installed on the phone? I had that problem on two ROM's happened and even thou i love SPB Shell i had to uninstall it and i never had the phone freeze problem when ever i got a call.. You can try to deactivate SPB and see what happens as well..
Mind to tell me how to disable this software? Is it something called "softkeys" ?

Disabling SPB would be done through teh Remove Programs app under settings > system.
Or maybe through the Today Plugin screen - select it and see if there are options.

Wake on power button only

Have had no joy trying to find a solution to this...
I have disabled screen lock so currently all keys wake screen. I would like to change this so only the power button wakes the screen....help please.
Thanks

If you could tell me anything about their charges, then I could tell you....
was browsing their site and didn't find it.....
you can simply pm me about it
honestly no idea where that link came from, sorry
honestly someone must have a solution to this, it must be bugging people....
Bumping indeed, wanting this solution also
I'd like to know this as well... Also the answer button is a waste of space. Why would anyone need it if theoretically it shouldn't be possible to answer a call without finger slide. Sometimes I answer calls by mistake when removing the device from the pouch...
I think this is one of the reasons for my battery depletion. Every time I pull my HD2 out of my pocket, the screen is always on...
This really needs a solution
When taking the phone out of my pocket I have seen it in Opera, other apps and worst of all I heard my pocket talking to me on Monday - pulled my phone out and I had called someone who had been called by me listening to everything I was saying!
As I said this really needs a solution ASAP if anyone can help...

For now you might be better of by using Lock Screen, it can still turn on your phone with any hardkey. But atleast the screen itself is locked so you can't call someone, or start any programs.
I understand lock screen is an option but the simplicity of a one click lock/unlock makes the phone that much quicker to get into and better to use....
we just need a way to disable the other 4 buttons (expect power) from waking the device....
bump...anyone
I would like to know as well.
Also, I want the "answer" and "hang up" hard keys disabled when I receive a call. This made me pickup or ignore call which I did not want to pickup/ignore.
Only solution would be a custom rom with device lock/button lock coocked in it.

Well PocketShield is halfway there. it disables the hangup button nicely, but I can still push the hard pickup button.

It seems like someone has at least managed to control the hard keys now... surely someone must be able to make this control the power button only for wake....

No keyboard during call

Hi Guys,
I have a problem with my hd2. When I have a voicemail message or when I call a servicenumber I must choose an option like "press 1 or press 2" At that moment there is no keyboard available on my touchscreen. This is a real problem because I can't listen or delete voicemailmessages. I contacted HTC but there was no solution. I hope that someone can help me with this, I like my HD2 a lot.
Thank You!!

Can you not open the keyboard with the little pull down tab
when in a call ?
Thanks for your response. When I slide it down for options it doesnt contain 'show keyboard' or something similar.
It is a big problem for me and I think that I'm not only one with this problem.
Very strange....
Can you recall when this started happening,was it like this from
new or only when you installed a modification of some sort ?
All info will help those more knowledgeable than me to assist you.
I have my hd2 for a month now. I have the problem since the beginning with the original HTC-rom (NL). Later on I have installed cookie home tab but that is not the problem.
You also own a HD2, can you get a keyboard during your calls?
Thanks

Yes,my keyboard and other options,Speaker phone etc are available to me via the pull down tab during calls.
Have you tried changing the keyboard in the advance settings? I have encountered this before, i'm using EnergyRom. Then i did go to the advance settings and search for the phone settings then dialpad then i just use the default dialpad. I can't remember exactly because I'm using a different ROM as of today. Just try to look in the advance settings for the dialpad. Sorry if i can't help you directly mate. I will try to research this to help you.

[Q] Anyway to make the end button/lock button actually end a call?

I don't know if anyone else has this issue, but when I ring someone and I press the end key, it just turns the screen off and locks the phone with the phone call still going on in the back ground.
Is there anyway to make this button actually end the call?
BTW thanks to all the chefs for making android possible on the HTC HD2

i think he is joking this option will be in the next kernal
In sense builds there is no this option.I think because htc desire,doesnot have endkey button.But if you use latest kernel compiled by michyprima http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756513 the endkey works without the need to set something in settings.
