Hello,
is there a way to use the BA with the keyboard without using the touch screen. My screen is cracked & not working it's slowing the whole system & sometimes make it to freez i'm using the keyboard (tab, arrows enter)
Any help will be more than appreciated...
Hey - you can use the keyboard and the up/down/left/right rocker, OK button, and Start button to do almost anything.
You will not be able to set alarms.
You will not be able to use Garmin's Que software...
You will not be able to do... well... lots of stuff unfortunately.
I delt with the same problem for about 3 days before I got the replacement.
Hope you've got the insurance plan - for $50 I got a new BA, the Audiovox WITH the Camera (YAY!) And a whole new set of accessories - brand new unit with everything that came in the box.
Heck... I even got another battery - so now I've got 2 regular ones.
For $50 I got a good deal on duplicate accessories
There might be a way to do some of the stuff, but Tab only gets you to certain menus.... I couldn't get it to reset the alarms.
But you CAN get it to change the time on your device... so if you DO have an alarm set you can change the time so that the time the alarm is set for goes off at the correct time (I was off an hour and lost a bit of sleep <_< )
Don't forget your tab button though It's a god send.
I had dropped my XDA 2s, and cracked my screen. I too tried to use it without replacement, but its just not practicable, so I went to the repair shop and got me a new screen. That's the only way, unfortunately
Hi
I am having O2 Orbit.
The Green Send key is getting pressed automatically as soon as I switch ON the device and it auto dials the last dialed number continuesly.
I opened the case all through and tried to find any obsticles physically, but its fine.
Can any one suggest any tips.
How do I disable the SEND Button, (I can use the touch screen to access the phone).
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
I don't have a solution, but I had a similar problem - my phone would just cycle through the lower buttons randomly, and I never found out what it was.
But I might have got it wet a bit, after a week or so it went away.
Then I had the phone replaced with another problem.
Is it still under warranty? If so, just take it back.
Good luck!
PS: I don't think your question should have been in the WM6 section..
Hi Forum,
I got a dash with the WM 6.1 from this great forum.
Somehow since yesterday the screen turned completely white
There was no physical impact on the phone what so ever...
When I turn the phone on, the screen is all the time white... but the phone is still working since the alarm is still ringing....
I've tried already the following:
- took the battery out for over 6 hours and tried again
- with and without sim/sd card
- to reset the phone but with no success since I cant see anything (2 softbuttons, powerbutton etc.)
- putting WM 6.5 with no success with the Error 270
- pressing and holding any button
- tipping the jagger for 3 times
- and finally hitting the phone
All these steps didnt use me anything...
I'd be gratefull for any sudgestions
Maybe the screen is just damaged and its not because of the software...
thanks a lot,

Hard-reset will be best option and can be done blind since it's button sequence as known then green key, i knopw that peeps have done it blind and with you spending enough time it will be sorted... The other option is bootloader and flash your stock ROM as won't get an error 270
thanks for the fast reply.
ok about the hard reset.
I hold both buttons beside green and red button then while holding i turn on the phone (power button more then 3 sec.) after it turned on i let go of the buttons and press the green button (I pressed it a several times). What after that?? will everything happen automatically??
if yes then the hard reset wont help since its still white...
unfortunately I dont have the original ROM anymore (WM5).
Do you know where I can get it??
Ok I guess I managed to hard reset this thing.
Unfortunately with no success
can anyone help?
will the problem be gone if I change the display?

Can you sync with your PC? That's something that you haven't state in your original post.
From what you have posted in the first post, looks to me like your phone has suffered water/moisture damage. Classic white screen, nothing shows, display turns off after default timeout seconds, phone functions smoothly. For this to occur, you dont have to dunk the phone in water, phone in pocket when exposed to light rain, snow will do it.
If this is the case, the first thing you can do to salvage the phone is to remove the battery, otherwise the charge will short circuit more, leading to irreparable damage.
Second thing, try and keep it open for 24 hours or more and try ONCE more, just once, if the moisture has been evaporated. If not, remove battery again.
Next you will need to find a service center where they will dismantle the phone and physically air dry the PCB, and hopefully if it hasnt already shorted, it will come back to life.
The cost for this could vary from minimal to astronomical, depending upon which country you are in.
Do not take my words for granted, do a google for phone water damage, find out if those are your exact symptoms.
All the best.

yes I can. I already saved the contact list The phone is perfectly working beside the white display...
@ ccpraveen
I really dont think thats the case. Since I was sleeping on the couch, the phone's alarm went of like at 11 and it was all ok, then 30 min later the screen was all white
And the night before I left the phone at home...
Bringing the phone to some service center is out of question, since I live in Germany... If possible, I'd have to repair it my self...
By the way the Display time out works too... Somehow I got the feeling that it wouldnt use me anything to change the display
please, can no one help

install this on your computer http://www.mymobiler.com/
it will silently install on your s620 when it syncs with activesync and you will be able to view your screen from your computer monitor
if everything works buy a new lcd from ebay and replace it because its probably broken
--- sorry didnt want to post ---
Please skip this reply and read the next (cant delete this anymore)

My impression is that you have a hardware problem, maybe your screen has something loose. If you state that you will fix it by yourself, you can read the sticky on how to take apart your dash.
There are also power management settings that will turn the display white, however if it is white all the time, then it's probably hardware. Loose connections does sound possible. I'd check that first
You can try the following:
*- COMPLETELY disassemble your phone.
*- Take the PCBs apart on a table or something.
Then... take an hairdryer!!!
You have to dry your PCBs: take a PCB in your hand and do the work.
Be aware of not using TOO HOT air, or you'll melt all.
If it doesn't work, try to dry your LCD.
Doesn't work?
Okay, then the only 2 possible fixes are:
*- Replace the LCD Flex Cable if not integrated in the LCD.
*- Replace the LCD.
Hope that you'll get your phone fixed and running
Hi all, I got my touch pro 2 through Orange a while back and I have this frustration which is really ticking me off. The touch screen stopped working!
It looked like it had a fine film of transparent oil which surrounded a fine grid pattern which you could see if you held your phone against the light at an obscure angle. Nothing is more infuriating than trying to back up your phone, or import emails onto the computer before sending it away for repair, to find that the back up software that comes recommended can't be installed because... wait... you guessed it.... you need the soddin touch screen to install the bloody thing.
My question to you guys is this, has anyone found a way to use the keyboard as an alternative to 'ok', 'cancel', 'install' and other important functions?
It has already been away for repair becuase of this 'recognised' issue, and now it's gone again. I'm getting fed up with HTC stuff going faulty on me, and i've had a lot of their products, however nice the phone is.
Thanks in advance for any and all assistance...

hi all
seeing rapid growth which has Android on our phones I would like to remember that you are exposed to risks.
while trying andoid on my phone, on the radio 1.15.25.14, and a cooked rom, my screen went to crazy. I could use only one line of display, I tried to recalibrate but without success. I reset the phone (hard) and nothing. I put the original software in orange and recovered (I have changed and radio). a while I used that software, but I recently changed to winmo 6.5. Once I use the phone while it was connected to electricity, and I noticed that if it warms my problem with the screen reappears. if it is cold is OK. If anyone knows I want to help me get rid of this problem. Or if a physical problem to know what it is. I really like Android but I would like to remind those who already want to put in an official ROM that might think twice. Thanks and wish those who develop Android to do a good job.
THX
