all of a sudden, i was trying to reply to a text and the M key wouldn't work... i thought at first i just missed it, but it wouldn't input... not knowing what it was, i did a battery pull... i should have thought things through before i did that...

when my phone booted up, it asked for my pin number, and wouldn't you know it, 2 of the keys i needed wouldn't work either... after some panicking, i found out my 'sym' key worked, and i could select the numbers with the trackpad... what a relief

anyway.... i have found out the Z C N M Space and the End keys will not function... what the crap is going on?

i didn't get it wet and i really doubt i got any moisture in the phone... i checked the indicator and it's white...

water damage?

i've got a full skin on this phone and t mobile will probably just want to replace it... i can't believe this crap

[bluejae]

so i just called t mobile, and they will send me a replacement... i just had a crazy thought... i was thinking when the new phone comes, i could just keep my original battery cover, and then that got me thinking, could i dismantle both of them and just replace the parts... or is that too crazy?

Too crazy, they'd likely expect the other one back.

[devnull]

They have tamper proof seals... So, they will likely frown upon the returned device being dismantled..

[bluejae]

damn it... then all i can keep is the back cover... sigh

Posting from my bb. I don't know what happened. I just gave up and just used the phone as well as I could, also finding out that the right convenience key which controls my camera didn't work either.

But NOW, it works. All of it works. Now I need to call t mobile and cancel the phone they're gonna send me. I'm wondering what the chances of this recurring will be

If they're sending you a new one, I'd go with it before this happens again.

i still have 11 months of warranty... i really don't want to buy another skin and do it all over again

[Howard S.]

Makes sense. Could have just been a glitch. What OS are you using?

I have a simliar problem before when i switched input language (i.e trad chinese). Even tho i switched back to Eng after typing, the keypad doesn't recogize any inputs beside 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 in the main screen. So if your problem shows up again next time try to switch input lanaguage back to eng (united state) in the main screen.

Maybe the skin has a warranty on it. I have the Clear-case skin and when I had to replace my 9700, I just peeled the old off and sent it back with a check for s&h and got replacement
