I haven't seen this posted before, so I wanted to know if my particular Diamond has issues or if it's an all around problem.

Does anybody have trouble with the Diamond recognizing a click on the home, call, end call, or back buttons as left and right input on the d-pad? If I click directly on any of these buttons' icons, it generally just navigates left or right, and only if I click the very edge of the button does input work. Moreover, when I click the edge, it's only a 75% chance that the phone responds the way it should to that press.

A classic example would be trying to go to the home screen while in an app, and the phone takes a left input instead of minimizing the app. An even buggier example is trying to lock the phone by long pressing the end call button. This only works about 30% of the time, generally taking multiple tries to function. In general, the phone just takes right input from the d-pad when holding the button, or else does nothing at all. Generally if I'm already at the home screen, I have to navigate to another tab, come back, and try long pressing again.

Finally, when texting in T9, the phone often doesn't register a right click on the d-pad when trying to select the 2nd or 3rd word suggestion (such as selecting the word "see" when typing "as", "er", "er" (compact qwerty), in which "are" is the first word to appear).

If other people are not having this problem, then I'll quickly get my Diamond replaced by Sprint. Otherwise, if it's standard, let's hope Sprint releases a fix, ASAP!

I'm running Juicy's 2.1 ROM, but the problem was the same with stock ROM.
