FN Key not working correctly

Hi, I have a Rhodium with a strange keyboard layout. In the lower left corner ist the yellow FN key. Some other keys have additional yelloy sign, e.g. "N" has "\", "M" has "/" and so on. To my understanding I need to press the FN key first followed by the N key to get the \. This doesn't work. Pressing the FN key doesn't light the LED (the LED for the Shift key works OK) so I believed the FN key might be damaged. Now I found that pressing FN + H works like Backspace and FN + Y deletes the whole line. So FN is working but it does something I don't understand. Does anyboday have an idea how to fix that? I looked into the et9 files in the Windows folder but that didn't help me.
Regards, Michael

I assume you have custom rom on your phone... if so you might need to install a fix. do a search for hardware keyboard fix. sounds like you have the t-mobile version?

touch screen out? no SOFT KEYS?

Soooo I had to call tmobile warranty. My touch on the my screen no longer works. But what I find crazy is that for this to be a phone that is not just ALL touch im starting to wonder why even have a keyboard or am i just dumb? I cannot press send on a text if i want to send a message. I cannot even save a number 2 my contacts. With out the touch screen am I just SOL till my new phone comes in the mail? I can make phone calls my opening up the keyboard and using the arrow keys. But the limitations with this phone and no touch screen are ridiculous.
Just wondering am I not able to do NOTHING while my touch screen is out? If anything I want to send text messages and I cannot even do that. Any help? PLEASE ASAP THANKS! CED

so 20 people gladly view my post and out of the 20 no replies...wow

in your inbox for mms/text, press and hold H for a list of keyboard shortcuts. Press OK to get out of that list. press and hold key for desired shortcut. They are listed below:

But unfortunately, I can't figure out how to actually get the message to send once creating and typing it. Maybe you will have better luck.
Edit: actually you can use front facing buttonto get to start menu then use arrokeys and enter to navigate to (start->settings->personal->buttons), then you can set your ppt button or other button to left softkey and send that way... to get to set the button, use down arrow to get to the button you want,then right arrow once to highlight the "assign a program:" field, hit enter to expand that field, then scroll up or down with arrows to get to the <left softkey> (its at/near the top of the list), then hit enter and "OK" your way out of it. I'm assuming the version of the phone you have has the OK shortcut. You may need to soft reset afterwards, but should be good to go at that point.

The shortcuts are the same for his device, but you may have forgotten that the TMo version is unique in that it has no PTT button, no OK button (the enter key works fine to get rid of the shortcut box, however), and the Start button is actually a Home button. you could install tarkim's key remapper and set a hard key to the left soft button, but I haven't used this in a while and it may require some touch input.
Also, I use ZoomBarPlus which makes the zoombar function as a d-pad with up/down, action, and back keys. If you follow the instructions on the thread, you can omit the inbox from the default action and have ZoomBar work with it.
If these don't do it for you, then just wait it out for a couple of days. TMo sends these replacements out very quickly.

Thanks a lot !! worked like charm !!
Im from India , a place where TP2 is not released ( Can you believe that ?? ) , Hence no service for it..
So checking out some new mobiles or will wait for Q1 of 2011 ..

[Q] G2 Keyboard Shortcut Problem

On CM7, anytime I am typing on the keyboard loads up the shortcut for those letters. For example, when I just hit the 'e' key, it opens up the email. When I hit the 'b' key, it opens up the browser.
Any idea why this happens?

Go to Settings-Applications-Quick Launch. Go through the list and long-press to clear the shortcuts.

had the same problem and that works, thanks.
but my problem is bigger.... the alt key stopped.
i press alt, the signal appears on the screen, but appears the letter q, not the number one for example...
somebody knows what to do?
thanks

hey guys... about my problem above... the shift key also does not work and the alt key works sometimes.... for example... to enter my password here it worked... right know typing here it is not working.
i am about to reset... nobody knows what to do?
thanks

I had this same problem recently. The problem was that for the shortcut to work I have to hold down the search key along with the letter key (to open the email Search+E). For me the fix was tapping the Search touch key on the front of the phone. I figured for some reason it had gotten stuck in thinking the search key was always pressed. After I touched that hardware touch key, everything started working again.

Major thanks for this answer. I was about to post this to the Q&A section of the Samsung Epic thread. The solutions here fixed my problems. I thought I was breaking the hardware on my phone.

Thanks a lot, you ppl really helped me!

similar problem?
hey guys, I thought I had a similar problem but after thoroughly reading the post I guess I don't
but in case anyone thinks they may be able to help, please take a look!!
