SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

Here is something I have come to notice and would like to know if some people are experiencing the same problem. And please in the case where this has been reported before or a thread opened, Admin you are free to close or move it. But I did my homework first.

Anyway, my Home Button, Call Button, and Behind Button all in that area do not work often. I have to soft reset sometimes and if I am lucky they work, if not I just use the screen to do what I have to. It started with the Back button ( <---) of the D-pad not responding all the time. Then it just stops, soon the Call button followed and now the Home Button. I experienced the same issue when I had the Mogul. Mind you, I have never dropped my Pro, never come in contact with water and its still mint. I have had since Dec 25, 2008. Anyone experiencing this? Any Solution? Input Highly appreciated

What rom are you using?

and what have u installed???

Re: SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

this does sound software/rom related, but for what it's worth, I have noticed on my 12/18 build TP I have to press those buttons toward the far corner.

Had the same problem. One by one these buttons died. Went on Sprints advanced exchange page and they overnighted me a new TP the same day. Ive heard this happening alot and they've got me setup to try this new TP out and on April 10th they're sending a Palm Treo Pro to test for 2 weeks to see if I like it better.

I love the TP but it appears theres alot of hardware issues popping up, I.E. keyboard failure, Button failure etc.

I am running Mighty Mike 4.15 with Touch Pro 2 Manilla.

I would say I doubt it is the ROM because I have ran several other ROM on it and the same problem all the time. I am getting like really frustrated now. I fear all the keys would die soon and I will be left with nothing but the keyboards and screen. :(

I can try another ROM , what do you recommend?

Re: SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

As far as software foes just the usual , Live Search , Google Maps, Opera Mini, etc.

But I did install the NueKeyboard Light Fix, and since then I noticed that if I click on letters on my keyboards, numbers randomly come up. I will try uninstalling that and see if I notice a difference.

I had a similar issue which seems to have stopped. The same buttons you mentioned would not work all the time. However once I used the screen for example to get to the phone menu or home screen, the buttons would magically work again. I tried the newest version of my ROM (RRE for AT&T) and it hasnt happened to me in the last 2 weeks.

I will try some of the recent ROMS for CDMS around and see if that solves the issue. Thanks for the reply

Re: SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

Im using a stock sprint rom with a march 12th build date and I just got my 2nd TP Thursday and the buttons are already going to crap. I dont think it has anything to do with software, seems to me its a hardware issue.

Re: SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

I agree, I have tried 2 different ROMS so far with the same results. They Buttons are failing .Mogul all over again :(

Re: SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

Same thing going on with mine...but my screen is now going bizerk. Unstable display is the best way to describe it. It started with the home, and call button, and shifted over to home and end, and even the middle button on the d-pad. However...the zoom in and out by circling around it does work. I have noticed that if I wiggle my sliding keyboard a little the buttons start to work again...for 2 seconds. Very frustrating. I am going to do a hard reset...I think it is hardware myself.

just try this. it wont hurt. but when your buttons dont work put the phone to sleep wait a second wake the phone up and then try the buttons. this happens to me and this is what i have to do to get them to work on every touch pro phone i have had

Re: SO...., My Buttons are Dying one by one
 

I'm on the PSYKI rom and having a similar problem- I can't tell if it's HW or Software related, I honestly think it's software- I really don't want to resort to the Original Sprint Rom.

I wish I had some kind of key debugger where the software would see what is being inputted when I press those front keys when they aren't responding.
This issue happens daily. The only better way for me to test is to resort to stock and see if they last up on there too.
