I've taken mine apart completely. Ensured all cables were plugged in and taped them down.

Didn't fix mine so I guess mine's just completely dead.

EDIT: So after trying the taping and all that jazz (it didn't work). I decided to take it to the sprint store, and they were able to repair free of charge within a hour! :headbang: The sprint rep told me that the touch pro is "crap" and over 70% of the problems they get in the store has to deal with the touch pro. I suggest going to the store if it's close by, you might be able to get the repair for free (:

Mine too is now completely dead. For those who've tried repairing it, I've had the cable pop back off when putting the case back together as well. Personally I can't wait till the TP2 comes out. Now my USB port is going flakey on me.

I have a Verizon TP so I don't think that seeing how to take apart a Sprint one would help me. But, I always love phone gore. Very nice pictures and very informative. Thanks

Mine was doing the exact same thing... Lights came on, but pressing buttons did nothing.

You need to unplug the cable and plug it back it.

And double check all of them... My screen didn't work after I put it back together because the screen cable got bumped... All is good so far.

I'm on my 5th TP now since March. This is the first time I had keyboard failures. This thing is driving me nuts...sometimes it will type...sometimes no...then sometimes it just repeats a bunch of keys. Tried resetting, hard reset, different ROM, everything.

I haven't opened it yet...but I am tempted to since the Sprint advanced exchange said I have done too many replacements. Not my fault you have crappy refurbs! I did notice behind my battery I'm missing a screw. idiots refurbed and forgot put all the screws back.

Do you think my keyboard cable is coming off?
