I have encountered this problem at least 4 times since yesterday
While I am typing an sms message using the slide-out keyboard and the screen tilted up, the message will go out to be sent without me clicking send and before i finish typing...
Anyone else encountered the same ?
are you sure you just didn't accidently hit the edge of the left softkey when typing a R or T?
This happened to me all the time on my 8125.

At least I do that all the time. How can I re-map that damn key?

I faced the same issue sometime back. I reflashed it too but didnt help. this was solved on its own. I got sick of trying to make it work and kept it overnight. in the morning it was ok i am not sure how it got fixed.
May be stupid question but...
When somebody calls... how do you people end the call?
When I click the right lower button the diamond tries to make a new call to the person I just recieved a call from.
Now I simply do noting...
I hit the part of the screen with a red rectangle that says "End Call".
Just push the "end" (phone down) button.
TDO
My screen is completly black... even after tweaking (which didn't seem to work)

So hit the unlock button, turn your screen on and hit end call on the screen. That's what I do every time.
As TDO mentioned, is pressing the bottom-right hardware button not an easy enough way?
Or is that the button that you are pressing, and it's calling the person back? How peculiar...

He's saying his end call button, bottom right on the pad, is calling the person back.

That's right....
I did the suggested tweaks but my screen keeps turning of when somebody calls.... very annoying
When I get a call and it finally end, I simply do nothing... but I don't think this is a correct way... but I don't see any other convenient one
Sorry to be dumb... if you think this is a silly question, just don't react OK!?
intersting problem.
do you have a t mobile version of the diamond, i think the buttons are in a different location on the Tmob diamond. maybe a flashed ROM will not correctly map the keys on this device.
just an idea, maybe you could provide more details on your device to help us help you.
Tried the noSleep!!.cab that's here somewhere? Then maybe the screen won't turn off when you call, and you can use the softkey.
It's obviously not working like most of ours are for one reason or another... on mine, a UK 1.37.405.1 WWE, I just hit the bottom right 'phone down' key; the screen comes on, just in time to see the call end.
If I were you, I'd flash it to one on the UK standard roms, either a 37 or 93, and you'll be sorted.

always loved scandinavia... now even more.... PROBLEM SOLVED.
Despite different tweaks (after searching the forum.... really,.. I did some searching), NoSleep!!.cab keeps the phone "on" so I can easily end the call like it should.
Does your 'end call' button work at other times? E.g. when pressed-and-held does it switch profile (or whatever you've got it set at)?
I'm just curious as to why you're seeing such strange behaviour in phone mode!
Mathew
hey man... thnaks for your interrest...
When I puch it the Diamond goes in "Sleep" mode....
What it does when calling.... now it hangs up the call just like when you click the softkey on the screen.
Initially, when puching THAT button, the phone rerang the last caller.... very strange..
Anyway... now I'm perfectly happy....
Strange indeed! Oh well, at least you're sorted which is all that matters!

thanks, and my sincere appologies if i offended you. it was not my intention.
it was a joke (like yrs "i love you"). hope everybody treated as it was meant to be.
hiya, I hope someone can help me here, I got this phone a week ago and love it but for some reason when I text on phone pad or compact qwerty, when pressing the buttons it only comes up with the numbers assigned for the buttons and not any letters. Have no idea how to rectify this, tried all the usual under options but have come up short. Please help!! Thanks!!
Hey all,
Anyone have the issue where you can shake the phone back and forth and the google search opens up? I know that i'm not hitting the bottom right button, nor am i tapping search on the screen.
Sometimes it's not a big deal, but on phone calls it can really get frustrating.
Thanks

Maybe your accidently holding the menu button?

If so, open gesture search, menu options and disable.
Hi, I am having an odd sporadic issue when texting, typing with the hardware keyboard. Occationally when I start to type and reach a word with the letter 'a' in it, pressing the 'a' key on the hardware keyboard selects all the text. I have to either back out of the text message and go back in (most of the time this works), or reboot the phone (rarely have had to do this lately, but initally when the problem started, this was the only way to fix it). Is there a setting somewhere that is causing this? Am I accidently hitting a key or key combination? Its pretty annoying, but thankfully doesnt happen that often. My wife has the exact same phone and setup, and has the problem as well.
Background info:
Droid 4, Stock rooted ICS
Using GoSMS, GoLauncher.
I've tried every "select" combination I can think of on my D4 to try to reproduce what you are seeing, to see if it's a stuck key or something. The closest I can find is Shift-UpArrow. This will select lines. If your text is less than a single line, this has the effect of selecting everything. Have you ever notice if it happens on multi-line texts? if so, does it select the entire thing, or only a single line? or parts of lines?
I know this isn't much help. But maybe this is a step in "a" direction? lol.

Hehe, it definitely is a step. I cannot remember if it selects the whole thing on multi-line texts or not. I will check the next time it acts up. I can definitely say that I am not accidently hitting shift and up arrow, its for sure just pressing the 'a' key as part of a text message. The frustrating thing is that it does it randomly, and if I'm typing and I hit the a and it selects the whole thing and I dont notice, it of course replaces the entire selected text with whatever letter I type after the a.
Thanks for the help. I have seen this exact problem a few other places (google search), and there have been some replies, but none that have identified the problem, or offered a solution. I am hoping that we can get to the bottom of it. Keep the ideas and suggestions coming!
CTRL-A on most OS is a select all. I wonder if there is a "CTRL" key that can be accessed somehow? and if so, is it stuck, or getting stuck somehow?

I had not thought of the control-a possibility. It definitely is getting stuck, if that is the case, cause it doesnt stop after one keypress, I have to back out and go back into the sms again before it stops.

The CTRL key, as far as I'm aware, is the touch sensitive "menu" button. Is it possible that it's being "pressed" constantly?
Cheers,
Steve.

Ah-HA! Ok, when I turn the phone to the side, if I 'accidently' bump the menu button, the menu comes up (the menu for gosms settings when you're in a text message) and, when i hit back to make it go away, and it does, and I start typing... VIOLA! I reproduce the problem. You nailed it sir. Thanks very much. Now that I know what its doing, is there a way to turn it off, or should I just be careful not to hit the menu button when I go into a text message?
Thanks again!
Popss
Edit: I did notice that hitting the menu button again does not make it go away... any suggestions there?
Mine started doing odd things like this as well as "y" launched YouTube "s" Google search ect..... I just FDR and that was the end...
