I've just replaced my factory cracked screen with one I received online. Unfortunately the screen only highlights and I cannot select.

I've managed to do a factory reset wipe via Blackberry Desktop and that eliminated my BES security policy. Unfortunately the keyboard is still unresponsive.

Can anyone comment on a test I can try to know if the screen is at fault or if this is a separate issue? I suspect the button under the metal SurePress plate is the "enter" button to submit the highlighted items from the digitizer? With the phone apart is there any risk is pressing this button with my finger as I highlight something on the screen?

Does the LCD / digitizer / SurePress Plate have any impact on screen selections? My suspicion is that it is purely used for display and position capture / highlighting and the actual "mouse selection" is from the physical button on the board under the screen. I'd like to know this for sure to determine if my new screen is defective or if I have another issue.

Are there any contacts under the screen plate that I should be looking at to determine if there is a contact problem?

Thank you,
Scott
