Re: Touch Pro Slide out Keyboard Stopped working - wtf???
 

Took phone into Sprint and they fixed my keyboard which had completely failed. Not sure what they did but it seems to be working fine now after less than 30 minutes spent with the tech. Of Course I flashed back to the Sprint Stock before returning and Flash backed to MR5 when I got it back. I am expecting it to stop again at some point, so we'll see, it has been fine for the last few hours.

me too.

'Cept alltel insists on sending you a replacement refurb unit to correct the problem. My first was for a bad screen... Second would boot into bootloader every time and not recieve calls, my current has this intermittent keyboard issue. Oh yeah, my first was on the 30th of last month. This has been both constant and immediate.

After the next phone (en route) I may finally get to go into a store and get a new one... I wish I had the deal you do with sprint.

Anywho, just a differnet perspective on the same issue.

Good Luck

Just came back from the Sprint store to get my pullout keyboard fixed. Had same problems as others. Took about a week for it to go entirely out. They replaced the keyboard and so far it is working fine. We will see how long it lasts.

I'm on my 4th or 5th one for the year with keyboard issues. Good thing the sprint store is just a couple mins away. I just wish I could get a phone that I could keep for at least 3 months without a keyboard issues. Its been going back to the Mogul phone, the keyboard worked but had multiple letter issues.

Add another to the list. Keyboard started acting flaky last night. Did a hard reset today, no change. Guess I'll be heading off to the Sprint store tomorrow.

I have the solution to the problem with the slide out keyboard on the SPRINT htc touch pro which just stopped working all of a sudden.

The problem is caused by the inserted storage card, it is likely you have uninstall and reinstalled a lot of programs on the storage card. format the storage card and remove the card, reset phone to factory settings, re insert card and your keyboard should work again. THERE IS NO NEED TO GO RUNNING TO SPRINT REPAIR OR GO THROUGH ANY HAZZLES. This will work - I promise.

Just had my keyboard replaced yesterday at the Sprint store. The repair tech said he had spent several hours on the phone the day before with a HTC rep about how many keyboard failures they were beginning to see and the HTC rep told him they were aware of the issue and were modifying the way the connectors were attached on the circuit board on Touch Pros currently being made.

Re: Touch Pro Slide out Keyboard Stopped working - wtf???
 

This has nothing to do with the hardware of the phone, and since mine and most other peoples problems on here have been hardware I don't see how this would work.

Re: Touch Pro Slide out Keyboard Stopped working - wtf???
 

One fix that worked for me was to pinch the keyboard while slid out at the space bar. I would recommend trying to have a sprint store fix it first though, cuz hey, it's free and it could come back.

This is bull****, my ****ing keyboard went out.

Anyone know if sprint will replace without the stupid $7/mo insurance?

I just got my phone about 6 months ago so not sure if this problem falls in the 1yr thing.

It's been acting up for a month, first couple times soft reset worked, then it took hard resets, now it's completely fooked.
