hey ive been having this problem for the past couple days and was wondering if anyone has experianced the same thing or could shed abit of light on it.
basically whenever writing a text, or word document or typing a web address, etc and i click on the letter "w" nothing comes up and the phone crashes, doesnt let me type anything, goes super super slow and doesnt really respond to nething so i have to reset it. this happens when using the "w" on the on screen keyboard and on the pull out keyboard.
i havnt dropped it recently and its in perfect condition, also havnt installed anything recently that may hav caused it. it just seemed to randomly start happening. will have to try a hard reset if theres no other solution, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated?
I would suggest a hard reset. If it is a software error that should do the trick.
But i guess this has something to do with hardware. I had that problem with my wizard. The commanager button caused the device to crash. Once I opened it I found about 1 kg of dust sitting behind the button. Once that was out of the way the device was normal again.
edit: Just try opening the device as a last resort.
here you can find the service manual. Link removed - no longer valid
thanks mate, may try a hard reset then. but i'll leave it till weekend after exams have finished as its quite time consuming installing everything again, etc.
i perhaps should have mentioned that it only crashes if "w" is the first letter i use. if i type something else an then use it, it seems to work. (altho i havnt tested this properly, i'll assume this is usually the case). just seems like a very strange problem to get
anywayz, thank you for ur advice
nice screen name Is this a stock ROM or a cooked one? maybe the keyboard fix would correct it?

haha thank you.. umm.. its the default one that came with the t-mobile mda vario III. was working fine up until the other day.. whats this keyboard fix u speak of tho?
I have almost the same problem with my "w" key also. I have to press it longer than i do other keys to get it to type a "w" and when i do it causes a slow down on my phone.
sounds like its time for a song..

Hiya.
I have been searching for this problem for some time. Basically when i go 2 send a text, i select 1 of the touch keypads and the crappy windows keyboard stays up.grrrrr
The thing is that was 1 of many problems, so i finally got round 2 flashing my rom (with 1 of dutty's, hes a leg) and after two hours the same thing happens again
What could be doing this, or even better how do i fix this?
Please Help
Thanks
Scott
Hiya again!!!!
I got it sorted i knew as soon as i posted asking 4 help. It would fix itself.
Thanks and sorry if i wasted anybodys time
Regards
Scott
Ok mate, I have this touch keypad installed and everytime I press the spacebar too soon(before the text I just typed gets deselected) it deletes the selected text!!!
Any way to fix this? Or decrease the time the text is "selected"??

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.

hard reseted, the one that clears all the device. pressing those 2 buttons down the screen, plus the "on" button ^^ yes yes i mean hard reset hehe
i dont know how to flash a rom :'( and i cleared it with a program, which i downloaded from a website hehe

haha you'd be surprised how many people confuse the two.
well I would definitely try flashing it *hint*(the sticky's are full of useful information).
If not, call up SE and set up the repair.
Ok, im just trying to flash now, ill post another time when it finishes with the result
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
Hi guys, i'm using on my x1 windows mobile 6.5 rom since first beta. I have tried alla kind of rom. As far as i know i have always had a problem that create me some trouble. The x1 hardware keyboard seems laggy and very slow. Also FN key take a lot of pressures to activate. Someone else is having the same problem? Just to know if it's mine broken. I don't want to go back to 6.1 to try.
Thanks
Luca

if U want to have helps, U shuold tell us what's rom are U using or U want to use, so people, who have had experiences with that ROM will tell U how...
Goodluck
I've had a similar issue to this too since using the 6.5 roms, also along with the lag it double inputs the character selected sometimes. If anyone knows a fix fort his would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Is it laggy and slow in every program? For me it works very well. Only thing is my m-key is kinda broken, not a software issue i figure though.

I have experienced same issues like you did. The Fn key works only when I put lot of pressure on it (didn't succeed to determine which is the most suitable position) so, I've been forced to find other alternatives (soft keyboards). But, what's important is to find out if this is a hardware problem or is simply related to the new ROM installments which I play with...
Any opinion/suggestion is more then welcome...
Thanks
It's not a wm 6.5 related problem... there're tons of guys having this problem, and soon they're going to increase, cause it seems to get worse with time...
my keyboard has reached an unusable state, and the left half of the keyboard type twice or nothing.
The first thing you can try is to longer the time for input replication... if it doesn't work, then send it to SE, and hope to receive it back in a little time
I'm waiting to find a good alternative to X1, then send it to assistance, and when it comes back sell it... never buying SE products anymore
searching with google get many results... this is the first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=489331
oh let me tell you something real that is happening.
1.keyboard is crap if u dont use the buttons daily ,you will have this problem(i have it too)
2. same as my camera button( i press half way to auto focus and then press it fully to take a picture. but now it auto focus and when i press fully,the camera will auto focus again and shoot the pictures )
i dunno what is wrong with X1 ,but htc has make a bull**** things for SE.(happy that SE decided to leave them).
ok so seem to be an hardware problem; i'll dismount mine x1 to see if there's dust or something else under the keyboard.

I reached to the same conclusion like you did. Seems like most of the SE X1 keyboards have problems, as well like the battery life (btw, last night, in stand-by mode, my X1 battery drained out completely without having any process/program running)...
Speaking about SE X1 in general, yes could be taken as a kind of failure but we don't have to forget is made by HTC. So, they could be blamed as well for this lack of success!
Or maybe there was also a sabotage around, who knows?
time to get X2
