Fn button thinks it's locked down

[wackychimp]

So I've recently tried to install blade wiki to manage my thoughts/notes, etc. but every time I try to type on it using the keyboard, it thinks the Fn button is pressed (so that I get the symbols instead of letters). Pressing the Fn button again, or shift or any other button doesn't "release" the Fn.

I thought it was just a bug in this app but then it happened to me in an SMS message too.

All other apps work as normal with the keyboard.

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Or anyone else seen this?

I have had the same problem recently with the fn key as well as my text appearing in all upper case when texting. I usually end up having to soft reset to fix this problem.
I have SPB Pocket Plus and old threaded text program running on the latest released ROM. Does anyone know of a better solution or why this happens?

FWIW... I've soft-resetted at least 4 times since this started happening. No help.

Bump for help. Still having this problem.

Have you tried pressing the Fn button 2 times to see if the light goes out?

FWIW- The keyboard fix CAB discussed in this thread fixed this problem:

Woot.

Here is the cab file. Copy to your phone, run it and then soft reset. That will fix it.
