Hi guys,
I'm having issue with physical keyboard of BlackBerry priv after factory reset, key press not responding however I can use gestures or swipe. No idea whether its hardware or software issue.
I have done the test and it has failed all test related to the slide, or pkb the test wouldn't start. yet the back light sensors work fine.
i have tried to flash it with the official auto-loader , i also tired safe mode and all sort of resets- i m running out of options. its just crazy- if it was defective and hardware how come the back-light and gestures still work? i can even type by swiping .
but the keys wont work ... none of them work
Please guide..
Thanks.

Right, well I had been using my dual today and then all of a sudden my stylus broke. Not that that is a major problem though
Next i tried to text using the 16 key keyboard and everytime i press the jkl key it seems to act as if i have pressed that and then the ghi key at the same time. Also some other buttons are similar to that problem
Then.. it was just on while i was trying to figure out wats going on with the keyboard and the volume control kept going on and off wenever i put my finger on a button without pressing it :O freaky lol
I tried turning off and back on and when i turned it on it loaded the notes program. I checked the keyboard and it still wasnt functioning correctly!
Please Help! Urgent
Update : It seems to be working fine now . I just left it on for a while and when i checked now it seems to be fine.
Problems with reception

Hey Guys..
Recently my Xperia Mini Pro touchscreen started to not respond. First it began as I slide out the HW keyboard the touch screen was not responsive. Then I slide the HW keyboard back in. It was normal. The shortly after, In the normal keyboard position the touch screen began not to respond. It sometimes responds. Mostly its stuck. I can navigate and operate the phone using the HW keyboard. But touch is not working. Sometimes i can fix it by holding the power key and bringing up the menu for shutdown and selecting shutdown with the HW keyboard out and the after switching to normal mode and cancelling it. Then the touch responsiveness comes back. But this doesn;t work all the time. I have updated the OS via PC companion and did a repair and completely reset the phone. But the problem still remains. Can some one please help me out. IS this problem fixable? then how can i fix it. Do i have to change the phone completely. is it useless now.. I need urgent help. If there are any tips, methods to fix this or at least understand what happened and how, I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks in advance.

"I've got tha fix for yo phone!" Follow this link and the touchscreen should be repaired. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2104484
Ps. Press thanks if I've helped you.
I just got my Tytn working again (needed a new battery nothing major) and noticed that the function button on the keyboard doesn't work. Every other key/button on the keyboard and device is working fine but that one isn't responding. I've hard reset but that hasn't fixed the problem.
It's not like the device is unusable without it but it would be much more convenient to be able to access symbols without opening the software keyboard.
Could anyone point me in the direction of a fix for this issue. I've searched but all the topics relating to the button seem to assume that the button is doing something in the first place. Is it likely to be a hardware issue when all the other keys are working?
Anyway thanks for the help

Hey there,
I've a big issue for a few months already.
My S4 jflte always wakes up whenever the screen turns off.
I tried to figure out where it's caused by and when I cut off the soft buttons (home/menu/back) and started the phone, the screen didn't wake up anymore.
As far as I know there is no way to repair this w/o damaging the screen itself.
So could I block the buttons from waking up the screen?
As you can see when a app is opened and the screen turns off automatically and turns on again, the home screen appears and puts the app in the background.

Could anyone help me? I've been researching for a long time and found no solution.
Says video not found.
Are you on a stock rom?
The Video is working fine for me. Did you copy the whole link and did you remove the brackets? ( )
I'm on AOSP 6.0.1 Kernel 3.4.110-Alucard-PWR-CORE from JDCTeam.
I tried different ROMs so far (including the Stock) and it's definitely a hardware issue.

have you been doing full wipes inbetween roms ? if you have then maybe it's a hardware issue.
Yes, I've always done full wipes. I'm pretty sure it's a hardware issue. Is there any way to block the keys from waking up the phone? I usually use the power button anyways to wake up the phone.
You can probably disable the keys altogether. Or maybe just the menu and back key, and leave only the home button functional.
There is no way to do it with that rom yet, but you could use Xposed and Gravity Box.
Most apps nowadays offer inbuilt menu and back options anyway.
Before you try to disconnect any buttons, try to clean the phone. That has solved many problems in the past.
Look for disassemble S4 videos on youtube, and for cleaning use a small paintbrush, or a very soft toothbrush, and Isoprophyl Alcohol(70% clean alcohol, 30% pure water), you can buy that in the Apotheke.
Clean the board an all other reachable electronics. Let it dry, reassemble and see if it helped.
Thanks for the tips, but I've already done that before (twice) without success.
I'm looking for a way to disable the keys from waking up the screen. I've tried it with the key configuration files in the system, but it didn't work.
Example: When I press the home button the screen wakes up. I just want to disable the wake up for all buttons except for the power button.
Does anyone know a app for this? Or a mod for xposed?
There is no actual "wake up" function assigned to the back and menu key. Only the home button has one. So there's nothing you can disable, except for the keys altogether. I already suggested you how to do that in the 5th reply to this thread.
I've found a work-around. I disabled the keys with 'Xposed Additions' while the screen is turned off or locked.
Thanks alot for your help guys!
Some basic info before i begin:
Phone: Moto X Style/Pure on android 5.1.1 (XT1572)
It is rooted, but no custom roms are installed.
So basically what happened was I dropped by phone, then all of a sudden the on screen (Home, Back and Multitasking) buttons started to become unresponsive and started ghosting. I have restarted so many times just to exit an app. After several restarts, my on screen (home, back and multitask) buttons have stopped working.
Firstly my basic and short term solution was to install a 3rd party on screen button app from the play store, this would put a second set of on screen buttons above the stock on screen buttons. But before this I noticed that the on screen buttons actually worked when rotated so that instead of being on the bottom of the screen they would be on top. The on screen buttons also work when i boot into recovery mode, my custom recovery is TWRP. I also wiped dalvik cache and reinstalled my apps through the recovery setup.
I dont know whats going on, I even made it so that when my on screen buttons moved to the top of the screen, i would click on apps from the bottom of the screen and it would work. It doesnt seem to be a hardware issue as i have confirmed it to be working through TWRP and tapping on apps from the bottom of the screen, confirming that my touch screen is working perfectly. The on screen buttons also work and it being detected when TalkBack is enabled.
Help me plez.
Common hardware problem, use developer option to see your input and tap, if it brake when on nav bar, then IT IS HARDWARE PROBLEM.

Hi, I enabled Show Touches in my Developer Options and when I put my finger on the actual nav bar, the pointer stops just above it.
Idk if its a hardware problem, but i did drop it. And it still works in TWRP and TalkBack enabled.

The touch screen issue of this device is hardware related, born with such flaw, you will have it even you didn't drop it.
No sure how it happened, but it helps if you can take it apart and clean the connector a bit and make sure you reconnect it firmly, if that doesn't work, you will have to replace the touch screen part or the whole screen and touch screen and rear frame and stuff, but do notice: it's likely to happen again.
