Any clue/idea whats going on?

Alright ive had like 3 or 4 TPs from keyboard taking a crap. Now my new one the other day the keyboard just stopped working, at first it would do the thing were it repeated one character a few times...then it just stopped totally...then yesterday my phone got stuck in landscape mode no matter what i did for about a half hour....then this morning i wake up and my keyboard is working....anyone think this is that stupid ribbon cable problem and im gonna need another replacement or does it sound like a software glitch?

Re: Any clue/idea whats going on?

are you popping the keyboard open like how alot of people loudly pop a clamshell phone close at the end of a call? the touch pro is no sissy, but it needs love too.

Stock Rom or Custom Rom? I've had the Keyboard stop working on me a couple times before but a soft-reset always fixed it.

Re: Any clue/idea whats going on?

The keyboard issue is caused by a loose ribbon cable inside the phone. If you feel like opening it up, there's a guide with pictures on how to fix the problem, and prevent it from happening again.
