Unhappy HELP!! Touch Pro screen not responding!!!!

HELP!!! My Touch Pro stopped responding to touch last night, I took the battery out and left it out for about 9 hours figured maybe it just needed to cool down. Now the screen is still not responding. I can however still use the d-pad and keyboard and total commander. Which file do I need to copy to save my contacts before trying a hard reset?

Thanks in advance

Contact info is saved in the file pim.vol. It should be in the root folder of your phone storage.

Re: HELP!! Touch Pro screen not responding!!!!

Since it still isn't working after a hard reset, I'd take it back to BB and have them replace it.

Re: HELP!! Touch Pro screen not responding!!!!

Exact same thing happened to me. I dont have anything installed. Took it out of my pocket last night to check my messages and the screen wouldnt respond. I could use the Dpad to navigate to the different screens, but the touch screen wouldnt work. Soft reset with no changes. So I hard reset just in case it was a software glitch, bug, conflict.

After the hard reset it went to that "align screen" display, and of course I cant align the screen cause the screen is still not responding to touch

I'm taking it to the Sprint store this evening. I think my build date was 10/26. I do have the raised D pad issue as well, but never addressed it with Sprint. So I guess I can kill two birds with one stone. Glad i synced before I did the hard reset.
