I don't know if it's the new rom or just the 'age' (3 month now)...
But since approx. two weekes, by typing messages on the x1 keyboard it doubles or even tripples the letter n, sometimes m? This very annoying...
Anyone have the same problem? All other keys work normal...
Anyone knows how to set a delay at the keyboard? When I press a key and hold it, it take half a second or so until it multiplys the letter. This time i would like to change. Any registry entry?
Thanks for the help...
same issue .. not only m and n on my side..
refer to this post 4 further infos...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=483644
same mine. it's only dust
Mine's the opposite. My 'M' doesn't seem very sensitive. My words always seem to miss that 'M'. But the one that's real sensitive is the '.'. That seems to appear all the time.
it started like this with me .. the "M" alone was the problem ..
now the whole keyboard triples EVERYTHING ! -.-''
we really need help
I had that issue briefly with a R2A German Generic I tried. Never happened again though .
You can improve the situation by lowering the rate at which your key strokes are repeated by going to Settings > Buttons then on the "Up/Down Control" tab if you move the first slider to Slow and the Repeat Rate slider to Slow then the problem sort of "disappears"
I had the same issue with a lot of keys, i, m,n,k,l etc...
I did a hard reset and upgraded my rom, installed sms-chat... did everything but the issue persisted.
Finally i took it to the service center and they replaced the plate underneath which senses the keystroke.
It works fine now...
i dunno about u guys
but i spent all night cleanning the keyboard & its working fine now
its hard ,i used a YouTube video.

Exactly how did you cleaned your keyboard? I want to clean it by myself too.. Which tools did you use?
I used this vedio Xperia X1 - Disassembly Rear
Its harder than it looks , if you try it be VERY carefull as the parts can be easily broken​

Thanks a lot man!.. i'll give it a try and post the results cause this is a very common problem with the x1's. And probably as common as the cracks on the silver x1's.
Again.. Thanks a lot!
try this fix
i got this cab a while back for this problems, seems to work on wm6.5 also
disassembling did not help - there was no part to clean or to mechanically tighten.

Ok, I have done it oncemore - and it seems it helped. Although I am sure it was not dirty from "outside". I would say, it was the sticker or the glue from the sticker which made the contacts dirty.

how does this work what does it do any idea?
I haven't read through all the thread, but I can tell everyone who has this keyboard problem of multiple keystrokes and no keystrokes that it is HARDWARE and it can get worse over time. It can be sometimes lessened by some software tweaks but.... don't expect anything major.
I had the same issue, first starting with "f" then spreading over to space, l, m, n and a lot more keys.
The phone was sent to repair three times with no improvement until the third time when it was replaced. I sent it to Flextronics in Newmarket, ON with an RMA# from Sony Ericsson. I still have the worksheets and everything else if anyone wants to make a sticky because I see a lot of posts about this.
My original phone was a 08W36, I now have a 09W30 with no problems so far...
Better get it fixed before it goes out of warranty.
For those of you out of warranty, I think there were a few threads about this explaining how to disassemble the keyboard and clean the plates.

Hello fellow Kaiser users,
I don't know if this happened only with me or others have experienced the same.
TyTN II keys on the QWERTY after a year of use has some keys responding after the 2nd or 3rd stroke of the key.
Did anyone else experience this?
Is there a solution?
It is really bugging me when I'm typing an SMS or typing something down.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Hardware suggestions also I will try on my own risk.

Same problem here, but I started noticing it after 4/5 months of use. Would like to know about a solution also.
I feel your pain, this is what is really killing me because the keyboard is a very big part of the phone, and I've only been using it for 7 months. If i knew it would become this unresponsive i would of got an i phone because this phones on screen keyboard and transcriber is useless.
It happened to me after 7 months. The "c" key on my tilt started to become unresponsive so I called up at&t and had it warranty exchanged for a refurb. This second one was already even worse than the one I'd just sent back, so I had them send out another one. This third one is fine, although the "c" key (again, oddly enough) doesn't click like the others. It's responsive, but feels a little different. I didn't feel like going through the exchange process again, so for now I'm living with it.
My 1 month old refurb tilt doesn't type the keys when I press them sometimes. I should have that fixed. I thought it was a software problem...
My brand new XPS M1530 does the same thing sometimes. I guess I reckoned it was just me not pressing on the keys hard enough or something like that...
So I'm not the only one with the problem...
But no solution?!
Even a hint of what might be causing this would help..
have you guys tried using the disable XT9 cab ?
yes
I think it is H/W cleaning related
How to clean is the deal...
you can find disassembling guides on mikechannon's web. just follow the disassembling instructions and after you remove keyboard, try cleaning it.
Same problem for me.
I'm always very carefull with my device, and don't use the hardware keyboard very often.
Now for some letters I really have to press harder to make them work.
I have my device for only 6 or 7 months.
Have had my Kaiser for 6 months now and the Y and B keys are starting to go out. For the past couple weeks I have been considering sending it in for warranty exchange but I have taken very good care of my Kaiser and worry about what I would get back...
Anyone eager enough tried disasembling and cleaning?
Moreover, did it work?
funny thing here is that I get more unresponsiveness in the right side of the keyboard (enter; L; P; direction keys).
It is a real pain...
Most prolly will do it soon
Will let you all know of the outcome
Same here.
Had mine 8 months, the W key is worst, takes a really heavy press to get it to work, has been like that for about 5 months.
Now the B is also getting bad, so is the S.
If i'm likely to get a refurb back i guess i'll just put up with it until my contract is up.
I'm facing the same problem on my HTC herald. HTC keyboard quality has gone way down. I never faced such problem when I had htc universal.
Hey man,
since you had quite some ppls share of PPCs;
did you disassemble any of them before?
Do you think it's a good idea to do it myself?
I'm extra careful normally but I'm having doubts

Similar problems here with my Tilt. FN, CAP/SHIFT, N are all problematic for me.
Has anyone tried a spray liquid electronic "contact cleaner" on a device like this before?
Weird
Oddly enough, I have had this problem a little bit with mine as well. However mine is the space bar. I, like many others I am sure, have hopped from ROM to ROM. When I changed ROMs the last time, it seemed to fix the issue. It was really weird because a lot of the times I would type something, and the letters would turn out something like this:
Iw antt oe at atj oes.
Like I said, I just swapped ROMs and it seemed to fix it. maybe the t9?

You are correct sir! Just run "disable xt9" (found plenty of places on the kaiser forum) and your problem should be fixed.
I too have had this problem. I noticed it with the d, r, and space bar keys. Interestingly enough the keys that i press often (Take A for example [I have it mapped to the A button in PocketNesterPlus]) aren't hard to press at all. What I'm trying right now is pressing the problem keys over and over again to see if they "loosen up". Best Case Scenario: It works. Worst Case Scenario: I ruin an expensive piece of equipment.
Update: This might be working. To test which keys were unresponsive i typed abcdefghijklmnop.... without exerting any extra effort. The keys w and r didn't show up so i kept working them. I repeated the test and I got r to work. perhaps i am unknowingly pressing r harder, or perhaps not.
hey guys
have been a reader more than a poster on this awesome site..
but i have run into some trouble :/
within the past week, everytime my phone gets slightly hot, the screen alignment goes totally out.. like really out..
for example i manage to open the notes app..
if i tap the extreme left side, the draw tool will draw in either the center, or even far right.. its extremely frustrating.
Happens mostly after a phone call, using gps, or plugging phone into usb/charging..
im using Panosha's 2.2 full
Radio .05
I have tried loading the original HTC rom that came with the phone... no difference..
any help would be greatly appreciated
oh, and i do re-align... 10-15 times a day..
when the phone is cool, it runs like a dream

unfortunately i havnt had a chance to take it in yet, but i have logged the problem with my service provider..
the problem occurs alot more when i used panosha's rom/s
with the default (and now alphazero) the problem seems less frequent, but definitely still happens..
happened badly yesterday when i used gps to get my girlfriend to a casting, but switched on car A/C and after 5 minutes it was cool again *shrug*
its really annoying though
will let u know when i finally get to taking it in, unless u get there first
Hi there, I have the exactly problem what you had. Whenever the machine is hot, it becomes mad. Any solution could be reslove the problem?
It really sounds like a hardware issue... When you return the phone to the store please flash back to the original stock rom (for warranty purposes )
same problem
i am getting he same alignment problem.i do it many times a day but still tapping somewhere on screen taps the other way.very difficult to dial phone numbers

i dont think its an hardware issue,as after i align it works fine for few hours and then i have to align again to make the taps work acurately.........i have heard there is a cab file for it.if any one can post it here.........................or make a cab file so that clicking it makes the alignment as it was default with the new phone
It is a hardware issue. the screen somehow (usually when carried in front pants pocket) will get pressed and SHIFTED. Then screen pushes against the side-cover and this fools the touch-sensitivity of the screen. Try yourself - try to shift screen to one or other side, and directly after it will be better. it's still a service matter though. Send it for repair.
This is a known issue. You need to exchange the unit for a new one.
hey guys...
so late last year i took the phone in and it spent 3 weeks at leaf (HTC distributer here is south africa)
i got the phone back, turned it on in the store.. and guess what... still screwed..
i threw my toys to say the least and got a brand new phone..
the new phone was 110% up until 2 weeks ago..
it started doing the same damn thing (to a lesser extent)
i have found that its a connection problem..
the touch pad is very all over the place if used normally (so basically its unusable)
but if i hold down the top left of the phone(pushing down just above the start menu) with my left hand and use my fingers on my right.. the phone works perfectly again..
does anyone know how to fix this?
its so frustrating, especially knowing im going to be without it for 3 weeks or more again
hmmm ...
i heard that the radio-part is for managing the curcuits.
try an other rom.
but i cant give garanty, i hard it only.
Hey! It seems my qwerty works bad... when i write any sms, or notes.. or sthing that i write with this keyboard.

this is sometimes an issue when your inbox/sent messages get full.
you can clear them out or reflash the rom.
I've heard of a lot of people sending their phone in for repair for this issue but try clearing them out/or re-flashing because I'm 99% positive its a software not hardware issue.
Sorry But reflash with original Rom, and Empty box wont help I have the same. Maby is some driver? I clean my keyboard with vacuumcleaner, but the same happen, dubles or triples letters, or eating letters or spaces.
Well, all my inbox from sms, email, etc. are empty
i hard reseted 3 times right now...
seems ill have to send it to repair (for second time now.. ive used my xperia only 1month from 2 haha, lets wait another 1 ^^...)
if any1 knows another way to solve this.. i got until monday to send it to repair !!! would be very thankful !
thank you very much !

if the keyboard were to degrade it would happen below the keys. and the keyboard is one solid piece.
and it isn't a driver issue.
I've had this issue on every single wmo device I've ever owned so try clearing, or re-flashing your rom again before you consider sending it in for repair.

thank you!!!
i dont know if it could be, but it seems like having the same bug, but with less % of appearing, i mean, lesser letters appear duplicated, and lesser words and spaces appear bugged too
but anyway they continue appearing... so i really dont know what happen... :'(...
more ideas?
I have the same issue. I think it's becouse of dust between letters on the keyboard Im thinking about opening device and cleaning keyboard becouse my x1 is not on warranty. But before that I want to try to clean it with compressed air in spray. It is a good cleaner for electronics so may can help but before use that remember about turning off device and taking out battery.

that's impossible.. the keyboard is like a film its one solid piece, so any dust going between letters goes no where. the only possible things are.. either condensation got stuck between the keyboard and the responsive layer below it.. that layer below it has started to break down and degrade.. or its a software issue.
how is your x1 not under warranty?
UnD, if you tried reflashing then you just have to call up SE for a repair because its a hardware issue then.
I have the same, after flashing less, but still problems. No mater is original or Fun's Rom
I had quite similar problem - space button didnt work correctly very offen and then all keys around space stoped working correctly - doubling the letters, sometimes not working at all etc.
I had it repaired in service - covered by warranty. They changed whole keyboard.
I'm having the same problem... very frustrating getting triple full stops or two 'o' letters in 'of'.
got two cracks in the case. What are the chances of a replacement do you think? still under 1 year warranty.
i have the same issue.
its caused by dirt/dust etc under the keyboard.
the only way to fix it is to take the handset apart.
best bet is to phone sony and get it repaired
I have the same issue and was wondering if it was a problem caused by:
Dust under the keys
Misalignment of the keys
Will try a hard reset and see if that helps.
I have the same issue. Tried multiple roms and stock roms and clearing the whole phone and its still the same issue. Im sending it back for repair. Warrany is 2 years =P
ive been re-flashing my ROM twice so far... empty my inbox as well, but doesnt seem to fix it, but ill try another flash again x_x
Even the Fn Button (Blue Square at corner left down) wasnt responding if i didnt press it hard enough
just cleared sms/mms now works great again
but i still will write with fingerkeyboard until i get the iphone
xperia is good but keyboard sux (should not happend) and WM is far away from the iPhone OS
also apps are better for iphone
From searching this forum, I can tell that others are having the same issue I am having. It started out with just a couple keys and now about 50% of my keys require me to push really hard for them to type. It is not a lag issue as covered by another thread. It just feels like the there may be dirt or something under the keys that makes it harder to type. This issue also is not ROM related as I have flashed my device with several ROMS with the same result.
Has anyone had any luck taking apart the keyboard and cleaning underneath the keys? If so -- maybe post some tips on what worked or not.
Thanks.
I'd vote for compressed air
I agree. You might be able to disassemble the phone and take the keyboard out and use compressed air. That would make certain that all the dirt is really out of the board...
A work mate of mine did this the other day. He took it fully apart and cleaned it out with contact cleaner. Ill ask him wether it worked or not but I think it did because I saw him using the phone today.
contact cleaner
I've never heard of contact cleaner. I'll have to try that. After looking at this video for disassembly, it doesn't look like you can get underneath the keys. How did your co-worker do it? Pop off the keys like a laptop keyboard?
I guess some older thread on how to replace Kaiser keyboard will be useful.

Yes, I found that as well and it was not of much use. The problem is not removing the keyboard from the phone. The problem is getting underneath the keys. You can see the keyboard front/back removed from my attached image. According to this other thread #119, #126, #127 they say it is impossible to get at the keypad underneath.
I might just take a can of compressed air and spray on top of the keys as best I can to see if it helps.

Hmmm, seems that no other way but perhaps replace the keyboard ..
You cant get under the "actual" keyboard without breaking it off the housing. The keys can be pulled off from the top, but the actual buttons are sealed below.
For what little it cost, just replace the whole thing and problems are solved. Just did my son and daughters couple weeks ago.
Im foolish I forgot to ask him about it. Thinking back he may have damaged it lol. He does kind of charge into things and then realise he cant fix it.
Agree with carhigh, just replace the whole thing. Kaiser parts not that expensive nowadays. Just need time to open it up.
I have the same problem. Tried blowing compressed air from the top, but didn't have much success with the keys. I'll probably get a new keypad and replace it!
Sorry if this is a common question but where do people recommend getting kaiser parts? My N key and spacebar dont work without pressing it really hard and it's doing my head in!
Cheers.

Your problem will slowly get worse. More and more keys will require extra pressure. Not sure where you could buy a replacement now (the phone is kind of old). After attempting to clean the keyboard, I gave up. I am just using onscreen keyboard program that is included in TPC's ROM. I think it is called finger keyboard. After a little practice, I am actually faster typing on that than I was with sliding the keyboard.
Try this guys - worked for me in fixing my S key:

Ah. Did not realize the keyboard did not come out of the housing...
So here is my story.. i have a perfectly working kaiser, and one with a broken lcd.. but both of them are in terrible cosmetic condition.. so i decide to order from ebay a full housing (with keyboard included) to make it look good and give it to my brother as a present..
I perfectly disassemble the device with the working screen and easily install it in the new housing.. but when i turn it on i realise that the only working hardware keyboard buttons were q e u o f h l and some arrows i think...
My first conclusion was that the keyboard included in the housing was not working correctly so i decide to use my old one. but to my surprise the old keyboard also has only the same working buttons!!!
after that i also tried the keyboard from my other kaiser ( with the broken screen) with the same results.
So up to this point, i guess it is safe to assume that the keyboards have no problem.. but then the mystery grows cause i exchanged every single piece of the phone with the broken kaiser's parts and the problem remains the same...
Any idea?? i am an engineer and problems like that that i cannot think of a reason that they are happening drive me nuts!!! please help me sleep at nights..
thanx in advance!
Hooray! Someone else who has the exact same problem as me! The phone I have had the LCD screen replaced and once it was reassembled, the keyboard is wacky. I tried reseating it and the same keys you mention are the only ones working: Q E U O F H L, CAP/Shift, Tab, Space, Enter and the 4 arrow keys. Nothing else works. I'd love to see if anyone has a solution to our problem. =)
Also, I'm not sure if it does it for you but the backlighting doesn't turn back on once it goes off - even when pressing the working keys. I found other posts on this forum with similar problems (with no replies) but their keyboards were not working at all. There has to be a simple solution that we're missing if it's this common.
Thats really weird that we have the same keys working... it really has to be something we are missing... but i have changed everything..
the only thing i didnt change is the lcd, so now that you are telling me that this happened only after you changed the lcd, it got me thinking that maybe the lcd is not as inocent as it may seem... cause,ok, my first thought was like wtf the lcd couldnt mess up with the keyboard.. but now that i think about it it is the only thing i havent tried to replace.. i have a broken one but still quite operative, so i will try with this one and get back at you.. if in the meanwhile anyone else knows something or has an idea, please help a little bit!
Like you, I cannot find any reason between the keyboard and the screen that would cause this. They're not connected in any way or share any cables. They connect to different parts of the main board... there's no logic that I can find.
I got mine second-hand and the original owner said she had the LCD replaced because of a couple dead pixels. The keyboard was working fine before that. Let me know what you find out. I was planning on ordering a replacement keyboard assembly from eBay but since you've tried a couple, that saves me from wasting that money.
Unfortunatelly the extra LCD i had was not operating at all, so the test i wanted to do failed, and i still dont know whats causing the problem... i am more or less convinced that i have to buy a new lcd but it is a bit of a risk to change the screen because some buttons on the keyboard dont work, dont you think?? anyway i am wondering y nobody else has nothing to say... this hasnt happened to anyone else??

thank you for your reply! but i don't understand how this would help for our problems..
i talked with htc yesterday and they told me it couldnt be the lcd, but during the lcd replacement probably the flexiboard was a little torned (needs a microscope to be verified..) i am giving it for a free test on monday so i guess i l have a more detailed answer soon!!

Hmm, that's an interesting find. It's odd that the same problem exists on different phones, unless it's a common section/piece of the board/assembly that gets damaged. Are you going to try and use the assembly from your other phone? Let me know what happens. I'd like to know what piece I need to buy to get mine working again. =)
