on my tp2 i have the energy rom installed and set keyboardconfig to set the send key when held to go to a task manager the vol keys to scroll and hold to change volume but the send key just stopped working. it feels like im chacing problems round in circles with this phone where its one thing after another. i have advance config to have most things set to "recommended" re performance bu re the send key i disabled the kbdconfig and set "buttons" as none so theres no chance of a conflict but it just wont work. the best i got was sitting it for 5 mins without the battery in one time and it worked on a restart for a while. is there anything i have set wrong that im just not seeing?
im not getting to the bottom of this in fact the problem is worsening. menu and back key no longer do what theyre supposed to and they dont register in kbdconfig either. only the hangup button functions. i have tried memmaid in case it picked up a bad registry entry or something but nothing. Please help someone i am at a loss as to what else to try.

Alright my phone just started to act up last night ! My phone just started to take pictures on its on the camera would turn on and sit there and take them. IDK why!!! Also the biggest problem i am having it that my D-pad shuts off!!! when i try to use the soft keys they will not work for me. The Screen works fine! but when the soft keys don't work my keyboard don't work but the phone know i am using the keyboard as in when i press the space bar it brings down the start menu! Also when the soft keys dont work i use the on screen keyboard to type and that is even F%#!%# UP!!! i type on the on screen keyboard but i can not use the backspace on the or arrow keys. Also the scroll button on the side stops working on me also. when i am in call my soft keys shut off and i cant end a call!!! Now the weird thing about all this is i can turn them all on just by pressing one of the top soft key. (the Msg or internet button) and then everything starts to work again. now i have no clue what is wrong with it and i have tried everything from reinstalling the OS to Clearing the OS and that has not helped ! i really hope its not a hardware problem !!! Right now i have my Camera button off and the camera does not take pics on its own right now but my screen does turn on and just sits there and does nothing. But if anyone can help me solve this problem i will Donate to them = D!!!! Please Help Me Out ASAP!!!
Thanks!!!
well thats screwed upp. lol
yea i cant help you. i just wanted to tell you how screwed up it was.
I would try a hard reset first and/or rom reflash.. if that doesn't work better buy you a parts doner phone
So ive got an Excalibur with NRG's 6.5 build ROM installed
96DPI installed.
ET9 English installed in case it wasnt already.
But the whole time, I can't get functionality out of my Send (Green Phone) Key or my Home key. Now, i thought the keys might have gone out on the phone cuz theyre in the same area and maybe something happend. But... i tried to see if i get any response when pressing these keys through re-keying in buttons for PocketNester Controls. It DID recognize immediately when i pressed both the send key and the home key each. So i know the keys have contact/response, whatever. But I scroll to a contact and hit SEND... nothing. Hit the HOME key at any time and it doesn't send me anywhere.
Any suggestions? I have another dash that is broken and i dissected it a while ago and have some parts if need to swap or check anything, that is possible... but where to start troubleshooting from here?
Thanks for any light you can shed on my issue!!
try flashing to a new rom like ookba's 6.5 and see if you still have the problem, if so change the keyboard pcb
My Touch Pro 2 kept reverting to the TouchFlo home screen within a couple of seconds of opening other applications (eg. click on a new email, and a second later it goes to TouchFlo. Soft resets didn't make any difference: nor did disabling TouchFlo (from the Settings/Today/Items menu) - it then just reverted to the Windows home screen instead. So I tried to hard reset the machine. I read that the way to do it is to hold send+end+power, but that didn't do anything. Some posts suggested that volume down+reset was the way to do it, so I tried that. I've now got a tricolour screen, which starts:
RHOD100 32M MI-BC
SPL-0.84.0000
A bit more searching suggests that this is the bootloader (?) screen that comes up when you want to flash a ROM, and I feel dangerously close to doing something expensive and irreversible. Any suggestions as to how to get out of this screen? Nothing obvious when I search the forums here. I was thinking of just taking out the battery. And any thoughts on how to hard reset - or how to stop deal with the original problem?
Thanks
You ain't going to mess anything up. You can flash a new rom from there though but there is no way to do it by accident. Don't you hard reset by holding down the green and red call buttons and soft reseting? I remember it being different from the Touch Pro 1.
you might head over to the rom section, read up on the "flashing your phone for the first time" thread. Answer is most likely in there.
Thanks for coming back so quickly guys. The ROM flashing thread didn't explain how to get out of the tricolour screen. Meanwhile I just took out the battery and that did the trick. I still couldn't hard reset using the send+end+power buttons as instructed here and in the manual. I was able to get to the Settings/System/Clear Storage menu and was eventually able to keep it open for long enough to enter "1234". That hasn't dealt with the original problem, though - switching back to TouchFlo after a couple of seconds in each application. It's also beeping incessantly. Any ideas?
It sounds like your device is registering a phantom End key press every couple of seconds. That would explain it popping you out to the home screen and the beeping. If your End key is indeed acting weird, that would also explain why you can't hard reset using the power+send+end key combination.
You should send it in for warranty replacement...

That makes a lot of sense, thanks. Now that you mention it I realise that it's the same kind of beep and the same result as the End key.
I've only had it for 2 months. I'll get on to HTC.
My phone backs up and resets overnight, and I woke up this morning to check email etc and noticed that the 4 hard keys on the front of the phone were all acting funny.. End key doesn't beep, send key didn't open the dialer, Okay button didn't close the current window.. then I found the PTT key didn't do anything either.. However, the Windows key DOES!
Hosed around for a while, launched AEButtonPlus to check it out, reset a few times, yanked the battery, etc.... Nothing. So I went back into AEButtonPlus to see what happens if I add a button and hit the Phone button and it pops up 00ED. Weird.. So I went looking into the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys entries, looks fine as far as I can tell... Got curious and launched the Buttons preference, looks okay in there, except strangely the last screen for holding the End button has *no* selection, normally it has the two radio options, with more radio options below the second one, none selected..
So then I exit back out of the Buttons apps and are hosing around and find the buttons are magically working again. Soft reset, etc, all is fine!?
AEButtonsPlus got confused?? Nope, at some point I removed it from Startup and soft reset, was the same. And now that it's working again, all my settings in it are fine.
I am using QuickMenu attached to the Win key, so perhaps why that kept working?
Very strange.. At least it's back now, and I (think?) I know a workaround if it happens again, launch the Buttons preference.
This ever happened to anyone else?
same problemo

Yours fixed by launching the buttons setting? I don't know if that's what fixed it, but it seems like it went away after that, perhaps a few more soft resets.
Well I had an incident with my phone last weekend and now my physical keyboard doesn't work properly. None of the keys really work and the G key is stuck at times and even when phone is is closed will type GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. Is there any way to disable the physical keyboard, basically start using this it like a Pure.
Would like to do this with software rather than opening up phone
bumping once for last ditch effort before taking this thing apart
hmmm, ill take a look at the registry later, you may just be able to take off the keyboard driver, ill check back in a few hours
<_<, well i guess im back already lol.
1. open a registry editing program
2. go to HKLM < HARDWARE < DEVICEMAP < KEYBD.
3. There should be a key named "DriverName".
4. Change its value from "KpdNopAll.dll" to 0, or anything you want, just as long as its not pointing to another driver i guess. then you may have to hard reset the phone because mine froze when I did it.
5. let me know how it worked!
\\ The phone still registers some keys like the arrow keys and the FN key, but none of the letters work
Thanks.. I'll try it and see if it helps
your welcome
I have a verizon htc xv6800. I was using my phone and the keyboard got wet and now my phones keyboard doesn't work in some areas. it keeps getting stuck in the down and up direction keys even if my phone is closed. is there a way of fixing that?
