After uninstalling the demo for dxTop, my home button no longer works at all. This is very annoying. It still physically works, but doesn't seem to be bound to anything in Android. Can anyone help me without suggesting a factory reset?

I got a Kaiser/Tilt for Christmas. I've installed s2u2 and some of the cabs. Last night, for no apparent reason, all buttons and keys stopped working. When I press a button they light up but nothing happens. I've checked the button function assignments and they are unchanged. I uninstalled s2u2 and it didn't work. Soft reset does nothing.
Any ideas, anyone? I prefer not to do a hard reset, as I am traveling.
However, the screen alignment shortcut (center+IE button) still works.
And the PTT button still works. The one button I don't use.
You seem to be talking to yourself!!
Anyway, welcome on board.
I assume you have done a soft reset?
If so then I think a hard reset is called for. It may be related to something you have loaded, but tracking that down and rectifying it with the keys not working might be impossible. Oh and get yourself a good full backup app like SPBbackup or Sprite.
Hopefully this is not a hardware issue.

I backed up to gmail and did a hard reset. It's fine now.
I can't see any similar problems on the forum, so can anyone help?
Yesterday my Kaiser's power button stopped working. In the middle of the day, not doing anything with it, installing anything or changing any settings. I took it out of my pocket and the screen was on with the power off dialog box showing (I normally keep it on standby in my pocket) The power button wouldn't put it into standby, and holding it wouldn't power it down. Intermittently the power off dialog appears on screen, if I click yes the device restarts (doesn't stay off). Everything else seems to work normally still. Soft resetting works normally. All the other buttons seem to work ok. I've tried a hard reset, but that made no difference.
Anyone else have anything like this?
no but i think ur power button seems to be stuck.. take it to ur local att store and see if they can help u out or try pressing and see it becomes unstuck.

I'm having the exact same problem right now. The power button definitely seems to be stuck. Can't figure out how to unstick it
About a week ago I had a similar problem.
The power button and the photo button stopped working. I couldn't turn the the device off or set it to standby.
Had to soft reset and after that it was ok again.

Well that didnt work! Any other solution?
Is it possible to unmap the power button and map that question to another button???
This morning I woke up to find that my kaiser's buttons were non-responsive. after about 2 min of testing, I found that only two buttons on my kaiser worked, the power button, and the center button (it acts like the windows button now WTF???). Also, when I power on the device, I see the dialer pop up, and the following W on the far right, wich is replaced with S, then Z, then X. (can you say WTF???) The touch screen works perfectly, and none of the keys on the keyboard work.
I would love suggestions on what to do to fix it (I am not afraid to take it apart, I just need a torx-5 bit), and barring that, suggestions on a new phone.

Try hard reset first.
solution..!
hi
first try soft reset, and if that doesnt work then uninstall some program and after each uninstall soft reset
if this doesnt do it for the device then there only one option---->HARD RESET
regards
Hi,
maybe it's a an issue using a creen locker like Sunscape, ThrottleLock or S2U2. Try uninstalling them (it), could help.
Well, I soft reset it a couple of times, same result, I can't hard reset it, because the button combination does not work, and neither does clearstorage. it looks like it's a hardware problem to me.
Alright my At&t tilt front face buttons started to not work (i could only use the arrow buttons and the ok button) and my keyboard stopped working but the arrow keys would. i upgraded the rom after calling htc for help. that didnt fix a thing and now today none of the buttons work. i keep getting the PTT to come up and ask for installation and edfc keeps typing themselves on the screen. so idk if it is a software problem or if the hard ware is malfunctioning.
Damn, I got the same problem. Does anybody know how to fix this?
the same problem here... :/
same problema here.
i already tried another radio, another SPL, another ROM and nothing.
any idea?
Just updating.
Yesterday my tytn started working perfectly again, but today the same problem is occuring. I did nothing, so probably is really a hardware issue.
I have a similar problem.
Send/End + Soft Keys + Keyboard are not working. The issue is not resolved yet?
Wow, this problem just happened to me as well. I've searched everywhere on the net and couldn't find anything.
So is this a pervasive issue? Anyone with any hint as to what might be the source of the problem?
Originally, I thought it the PTT button was stuck in the PRESSED position because the phone behaves as if this button was constantly being pressed. For example my PTT button was mapped to Voice Recorder if the PTT button was held down. The voice recorder constantly comes on everytime I turn the phone on!!

I have the exact same problem.
The only change I recently made (two weeks ago) was installing tom tom navigator.
First I thought it was a virus and I installed bull guard, but with no success.
It opens/closes the start menu every second, no buttons work apart from the directional buttons and it writes "edfc" in my textmessages when I turn on/off the screen with the power button.
Most of the time(!) this irritating opening/closing of the start menu only happens after I first turn off/on the screen (with the power button).
I saw this problem described in a post dating back almost two years ago. Someone ought to know the answer to our problems. What does HTC say about it?
I have been lucky and not had this issue yet; but I would recommend starting by flashing the stock rom from HTC. Then hard reset; that will clear everything back to original. If you still experence this after that, then you have a hardware issue. Good luck
This just happened to me this morning. I cant use any buttons and nothing is popping up. This is soo wierd cause the phone was just sitting there overnight!!
Me too...
I have been going nuts with this issue for a couple months now. Makes the phone unusable half the time. I am so disappointed to find that a ROM reload doesn't fix it!! I remapped the 6 key to none and that sort of helps but it was mapped to Voice record before and it would constantly record memos until all the memory was gone in the phone and then it would all crash from there. So frustrating.
I too get the edfc message after I reboot....
It really seems like a virus the way it acts but I guess if it is a hardware issue then it's not a virus.
Anyone ever figure anything out with this? Nothing has changed on my phone recently.
Still an issue?
Holy Toledo fellow Tilt Users. Have you ditched your half-functioning touchscreen, or have we figured out how to solve this issue.
Recently I FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM!
I am going to do what was suggested (original HTC Rom & hard reset) and will let you know if I get the rest of my keyboard back...
All buttons except for power and... NOT WORKING
Outside "Enter" buttons work but they are mapped to Windows key. ? Weird. For some reason the kaiser thinks it is something else. I do not know how it got this way, but there must be a way to convince the hardware of the existence of all my other buttons. The entire keyboard does not work.
Hard Reset & stock HTC Rom did not help. I was surprised that I could hard reset it at all since the two soft buttons are unresponsive to software.
Anyone figure this out yet?
Hi, I got the same issue today as well - Has anyone got rid of this?
So starting today, after no changes being made. My apps won't open. I click on them and they bounce like I'm clicking on it but nothing happens. I did a full factory restore, they seem to work randomly then they stop working again until I reboot. After a few minutes, this happens again. The app menu button seems to work completely fine. It will bring up my app menu but the apps won't load. Sometimes when I click on them like 30 times they will finally open but other than this they won't. Also the home screen apps are having the same behavior. It seems like software but I don't know how it could be software related if I did a factory restore and it didn't help. Also when I hold the app button down like you would do to relocate it on the home screen, it acts like there is nothing there and opens up the menu that would come up if I held down on a black area of the screen to change the wallpaper or something. This is pretty terrible. Help? Thanks.
Update software then, Repair My phone with the Sony Update Service.
