Sometimes I can't answer the phone with hardware buttons ;/ - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi guys,
I'm quite newbie... I've just moved from SPV c600 to DIAMOND. I've one problem that really makes me mad. At first I must tell that I've tried everything hard reset , than checking if any apps is causing that one by one-with no result. Occasionally I just can't pick up/refuse a calls with HW buttons. I use S2U2(installed yesterday), but this problem I had even before i installed that app. Does anybody of you experienced such an issue? Anybody knows the answer how to fix it? Thanks in advance

Same thing happens to me! It is like HW buttons work whenever they want but not all the time. If you install AEButton Plus you can remap HW buttons, but again the same thing will happen. The changes will work sometimes but not always.

I have a similar problem. Can you answer with soft buttons? Hoping some solution ideas will appear here or in that thread.

Same issue here.
I have added my experience to the above listed thread, and also opened a thread at Howard Forums.

This has become extremely frustrating.
Sprint has not been very receptive to this either.

what works for me is to lock & unlock the screen.
unless it case is related to another problem which i have experience before as well. But this has gone away since i loaded a different rom from the original htc.
*edit
this should fix it

Keyboard problem - Hardware or Software?

Hi guys,
I searched and found nothing specifically related to this. I tried disableXT9.cab but it did nothing.
I recently broke the screen on my second Kaiser so I had to replace it with the screen from my first (which reception problems so I stopped using it). To do this I followed the guide posted in these forums on disassembly and successfully switch the screen. I sent text messages right away after I reboot my phone and the keyboard was working fine. A few minutes later a few of the keys had stopped working. The delete key didn't work. At one point it started to work again but didn't work anymore after that.
I figured it was a connection problem so I took my kaiser apart again and rebuilt it. Unfortunately it didn't work. I tried again. This time some more keys stopped working (not sure if its because of disassembly or not - my connections are perfect). It's possible I scratched the connection ribbon... so I replaced the keyboard with the keyboard in my other phone, but I still have the same problem.
Is this a hardware problem I can't fix? (if so why did it work right after I got it to work the first time)
Or is there something funky going on with my software?? Can I fix this?
Thanks!
I tried to flash a new ROM and the same keys are still not working.
I guess this means it's a hardware problem???
Does anyone know if I can do anything to fix this.. i already tried switching the keyboard...
i'd like to figure this out as well.. i don't think it's hardware as i've changed my tilt 5 times already by complaining about the keyboard.. is yours like mine where it works sometimes but not all the time?

My buttons don't want to be touched...

Ok, this might be the first real problem I've had with my tilt, in a sense that I have no freakin clue what happened or how to fix it. The front buttons on the tilt as well as my keyboard decided they wanted to stop working and I have no clue how to bring them back... let me start from the beginning.
I installed m2d about 2 weeks ago, its kind of laggy but I'm still impressed with the overall UI as it compliments the tilt. Some bugs started popping up here and there but through the forum I was able to make it run relatively smoothly. Last night my tilt wouldn't connect to my computer, the usb contacts might have gone bad or something, it only works when I put pressure on the cable to keep the contacts together. Than today my screen would wake up for no reason, with no programs or application running in the front or background of the device. It was annoying to say the least. Than I got my first text of the day and went to respond using the actual keyboard, no dice. No response from the keyboard. So as Im typing using the stylus I tried to delete something, and the backspace button on the touch keypad isn't working, so more problems. I want to try and hard reset the device to see if that fixes the problem, but since I can't use the hard buttons on the front of the device I can't hard reset (the scroll wheel, ptt, and ok buttons aren't working either) Is this anything anyone has ever heard of? My tilt is kind of battered after a year of use, but nothing significant has happened within the last month to make me think that something inside came loose, especially since this just started today and it was just sitting on my table all night. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance.
might be "m2d" not compatible ... hair wired ..
I wonder ..whether we can install window CE from pc to h/p through usb link ...
"Last night my tilt wouldn't connect to my computer, the usb contacts might have gone bad or something, it only works when I put pressure on the cable to keep the contacts"
r u using original usb cable ..b'cos now a day I saw many only using normal "small" usb cable head which easily spoil the connector at phone ... too loose for that sharp..

ya it happened to me sunday night, having exact same problem. keyboard doesnt work, and my front buttons dont work exept for the the center button which ends up opening the start menu (wrong command). Im over my 1 year warrenty and not sure what to do. Had to buy a cheap 40 dollar nokia for the time being, please help if someone can. Oh and I did a hard reset, and it didnt fix anything. Booted android with it and 1 out of 5 times the buttons came back, this is really weird/vexing.

Exactly the same thing has happened to me!! Coming on randomly, draining the battery really quickly and the same keys doing the same things as yours i.e. nothing or Start menu. The backspace and space don't work on the on-screen keyboard either. Is it the end of the road or has anyone the slightest idea what the hell to do!?!?!?
Same issue but slightly different
2 days ago I started hearing a noise from my phone that was not something I normally hear. After checking my phone I found out it was the voice recorder program opening up on its own. It started repeatedly doing this and recording automatically. I had to hold down the close option (X) and before it would stop. AFter a reset and when the phone wakes up it always does this now. Along with all these whacky problems my hard buttons stopped working. My scroll wheel and D-pad sometimes work and only the up, down, left and right arrows work on the keyboard. Camera button seems to work sometimes also. All others have stopped responding. Except for holding the power key. I just reflashed my phone to latest phoenix ROM and problem is the same. Is this it for the phone or is there a fix.
Anyone??? Please!!
Try this free fix
I had the same problem as the original poster. My fix was to download AE Button Plus trial and use it to reset my keys to their original setting. I did not have to do the keyboard, just the external keys. Now my tilt works like it used to.
This fixed the problem when clear storage and reloading roms did not.
It doesn't hurt to try since the trial is free.
Good Luck,
Will
same here... help pls...
any one yet has found a solution for this issue??? 2days ago my Kaiser suddenly started with same problems, buttons dont work and the recorder goes on, any one yet found a way to fix it??? thanks...
I have no idea if this will actually help anyone but I installed japanese input on my kaiser once and during the process a registry got edited that stopped my hardware keyboard and the hardware keys (front keys) from working and the fix was to correct the value:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010411]
edit the 0010411 value to "00000409"
again I have no idea if this will help but it wouldnt hurt to check to see if the registry somehow got changed. Goodluck and I hope you guys figure it out.
didnt work...

I have the same issue
This is intresting, I just posted on this, as I am having the same issue, which of course just started a few days ago. I have the updated UI as well but I installed it as well.
Any idea how to fix it??
keyboard fix "edfc" problem
yes , kaiser tweak slide wake disabled ...it OK
Greetings from Olsztyn Poland
Unfortunately, the problem returned it was only a temporary improvement, sorry
For my tytn2 after rom upgrade, the front buttons do not respond except the central one. the side buttons are responding under the win only but in the bootloader screen they don't respond. and I cannot make a hard reset.
I did a hard reset through the setting menu but still the problem has not been solved. Adding on that the keyboard doesn't work except the arrow keys.
Do anyone can figure a solution for that. except the hardware problem bec I am out of warranty.
Did anyone was able to solve the problem fully?
oo wow, i have the same problem. hope theres a fix
adding to that the the bluetooth is turnino on by itself even if I switched it off and the device by itself after time of switching it off it refuse to start again unless I did a soft reset.
I tried all the avilabe suggestion but nothing worked.
Hiya
This seems to be a problem with the TyTn II - there are several threads in this forum about it, none of which have any working solutions that I ever found...
I spent ages trying different ROMS, Radios and pressing of buttons and haven't found a solution - other than to disown the TyTn II and get another phone! I did pick it up again the other day and it is still refusing to have working buttons or keyboard (as reported by others, only the central buttons seems to work all the time as a Start Menu button).
I did manage to stop it eating battery at a ridiculous rate by turning it to specific radio settings rather than letting it find its own GPRS/ 3G and phone band. I think it was in this thread
I was considering sending my TynTn II to HTC, but I'm not sure it's going to be worth the postage and their service fees as I've already replaced it with a Touch Pro 2. Then again if we ALL sent them in, they might acknowledge some sort of problem with this model.

Unexplained volume drop to zero

I hate to make this post, but was a solution ever found for the unexplained volume drop to zero issue? I have followed the threads regarding this problem, searched, wiki'd and just about everything else but still no luck finding a resolution.
Regardless of ROM or regedit it appears this problem just doesn't die. Absent a cure for the problem, it's going back to 6.0 over the weekend.
Thanks for any insight.
Well, I guess this means there is no solution.
Well, I'm new to Kaiser and it's problems, but this one is quite annoying. This is what I came to after many days of messing with it...
I'm using shifu rom, it works great. SPB shell is also installed on my Kaiser and S2U also, but the problem with sudden ring volume drop remained. It disappeared when I turned off ID call through the S2U, and now using just windows regular. S2U slider remained, just ID call function in it disabled. Now I'm trying to reproduce the bug, but fortunately no luck in that. So if you use it, just go to S2U2 settings/general/ID off. Worked for me, but I'll keep you posted if something goes wrong.
Cheers!

[Q] Power button mute ?

Looked around, really couldn't find much info on this anywhere specifically for the N1.
Is there a way/app/hack to get the power button to act as a mute button while in a call ?
Thanks!
Tom
I haven't heard of any, but I find it hard to believe anyone would actually code that. The N1s are well known to have issues with the power buttons wearing out which will lead to them not functioning at all. Using the powerbutton for additional things on the phone seems like it would just accelerate the issue.
This isn't to say that someone won't develop it, but I think it would be a generic app and not something with the N1 in mind.

Hi, ty for the reply
Didn't know about this im sorry to find out about this now that i got my N1.
I hope its just a localized issue and only happening on a batch of N1's. Since i got my N1 only recently i wouldn't be surprised if HTC knew of the problem and fixed it mid mfr process.
I'm also looking for something like this for the N1, and wouldn't mind paying for a app that could make it happen!

[Q] HTC One Hanged 'Back'/'Home' button

As the title of this thread says, my HTC One hanged quite a lot when I'm using whassap/facebook/twitter or other apps. Note that I didn't get any lag, never in my 3 weeks using this phone I experienced any lag. It's just that I got this hang problem with this device almost everytime. The only solution that I came up with is to use the lock button and then unlock it again and everything gone well again but I don't want to always get this kind of crap everytime I'm browsing or using my apps. By hang I mean that the two button (Home and Back) ain't working. Even after restarting the phone this hang isn't stopping so I'm desperate to know if there's anyone experiencing this problem as well. For a high end flag ship phone, this is making me sad. I chooses this instead of S4/Xperia Z because of it's performance and due to it being unique than S4(Plastic, no boom sound).
Really appreciate it if anyone could give me a permanent solution on this, thank you.
(If there's other thread that had this discussed, I'll be glad if you can help me to paste it here because I've used the search option but I didn't know what to write there so I didn't find any thread regarding on this, thank you)
Hmm... My keys are always working fine. Everything is responsible as it should be. My bet is that you have some problem there being solved by HTC technicians, so contact them.
I don't have another solution if you're stock and unrooted.
