Stylus won't go in; causes key presses

[NotoriousBEN]

This is a cross-post from another thread, but that one is getting buried and I thought I would start a new thread because this is a perplexing problem.

ok so here's a new one. a few weeks ago, randomly, my stylus decided to stop going in all the way. now there's maybe 1/4 a centimeter that sticks up. and when it is pressed all the way down, it springs back up, to the point where i can almost shoot my stylus out of the phone. as amusing as that is, here is the really weird part: if i have any sort of text input open on the phone, when i press the stylus all the way in, i get random combinations of k's x's and z's. for example, if i had been typing this on my 6700 and pressed the stylus in, i would get something like this: kzxkzxxxkzzxkzx. yep, weird.
