Hi ppl! I recently purchased a Kaiser replacement housing with keyboard to substitute my old and damage keyboard. I followed the procedure described in the HTC thecnical manuals and got the phone back together. After booting up i found out that the keyboard doesn't light up neither the CAPS and FN key when I press them but all the keys work! I tried the old keyboard back and works perfectly but when I put the new one it just doesn't light up... Anyone as any idea of what might be causing this problem? I suspect it's hardware problem but I'm not sure and I don't have any software that allows me to test if the hardware is alright... If anyone can help I would be very thankfull... I went through the forums and seems none eve had this problem...

I just got a 2nd hand htc tytn2 today and for some reason when I slide the keyboard out it does nothing. When on the basic today screen the screen doesnt even light up! Any ideas how to fix this guys? I even went as far as flashing a cooked rom to see if its software related but hasn't made a diff. PLEASE HELP as I love my new tytn2 but whats the use if the keyboard doesn't work!
Hopefully all it is is that the cable connecting the keyboard is loose -- you'd have to search these forums for some instructions on how to take it apart and check the cable.
EDIT: or perhaps more likely is that the magnetic sensor is broken.
Man this stinks. Was really looking foward to this tytn as well. Not looking foward to taking it apart and somehow finding a replacement sensor .
Oh, by the way, the keyboard works fine, the phone just doesnt react to the slide at all
OK -- if that's the case then the most likely culprit is the magnetic sensor.
Unfortunately, I seem to recall reading on these forums that it's not easy to change. There could be a missing magnet on one side -- if you take a magnet and wave it around the phone, see if you can get it to switch to landscape mode. If it does, then that's better news -- you just have to replace the magnet to get it to work.
If not, then the sensor is broken...
Can you send it back because it's not in complete working order?
Want to see if any other Kaiser users have had these two problems and if they have any fix:
1. Keyboard buttons aren't responsive (about half), meaning you have to press them hard for them to work. I'm suspecting this is from the sweat when i'm at the gym but then again it could be a keyboard aligning problem.
2. When I slide out the keyboard, the screen flickers in two places in a circular manner.
I know both are hardware issues so if anybody has any ideas, i'd appreciate it.
I have the same problem with unresponsive keys. I've had it a while and I've never used the keyboard with wet or dirty fingers. A friend got the same phone at the same time and has always had a more responsive keyboard, even from new.
If anyone has any ideas on fixing it, I'm all ears.
I'm curious, has anybody fixed their Kaiser's keyboard with the keys needing to be pressed hard in order to work?
Hard to press buttons
Im assuming it just needs cleaning out but any other ideas? Going to look for guides to take apart just hope it doesnt void a warranty
spray some windex on it.

Were you successful in doing this? I don't mind opening up the Kaiser, I just want to know what i'm doing and what the culprit is.
Hey i have had my X1 for almost a year (10months)
And well recently the hardware keyboard is not functional 100%
The Space key is not working if i press the space key on the right side whit my thumb.
The . Key isnt working either. Sometimes i dont get a . and sometimes i get multiple ...
Same whit the , and M key.
I still have warranty on the phone but does this really cover the warranty ?
Anyone else have this issue? A friend of mine bought a X1 2 months after me and she has the same issue whit the space key now.

Hi.
I found program gScroll and i have a problem with using:
when i touch keys it sometimes recognising it but most time it do nothing.
What's wrong with it? In camera catch a focus it's hard...
I found replacement this part but:
1. It havent any connectors (see: http://karlkom.strefa.pl/htc/o/diamt.jpg and http://karlkom.strefa.pl/htc/o/diamp.jpg)
2. Have u idea to repair it without buing new parts?
my G1 was destroyed in a crash, so I buy new plastics+keybord+slider (all plastic parts) to assemble the hardware in the new cover.
All is going well, but after the boot I notice that the touchscreen is unusable... if I touch the screen it begin to slide or press random points that I didn't touch, for some seconds...
The touchscreen is going crazy!!
I tried to open again the G1, reconnect the cables of screen/touchscreen and restart android.. but I have the same issue..
What the hell is happening?
The touchscreen panel seems ok, it doesn't have deep scratches, and it seems that the fall has not damaged visually the touchscreen.
It is a link problem or touchscreen, or what??? Someone know?
I don't know what to do.. buy a new touchscreen for 20€?? I spent 20€ for the plastic, if I don't solve I would change device.. but the qwerty device in europe are not so good
I'm waiting for milestone3, or a samsung/HTC qwerty device with dual core and screen> 3.7"
Please help I don't want to bury my G1
EDIT:
I found this video that show a similar issue on the motorola milestone.
It is really similar to my isssue..

I'm thinking that perhaps touching the back of the touch panel I spoiled something, or something like that (perhaps I have to clean the back of touch panel with somthing?)
I'm going to try something, all reply are appreciated.
I find solution (hope)
The problem is the bus cable of touchscreen that is damaged.
I bought a new cable, I hope to solve this problem.
Sorry for this useless thread
