Help! My Desire Hard Key backlight don't turn ON - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just noticed that even when I'm in a dark room the backlight of my desire hard keys won't turn on.
My unit is not rooted and running on official 2.3.3
Anyone know what the problem could be?
Is there anyway I can force them to go ON?
TIA!

[Q] Lock key ad keyboard open...anyone else out there with problem?

Okay well my phone is just the norm Desire Z NAM which has been flashed to a HTC stock image so all the apps from bell that doesn't work is not there, but i am noticing some either software problems hardware problems with the keyboard
When you have your keyboard open and after you sent a message and you press the lock button with your keyboard open, does your screen go off and come back up? and when you just leave the device with the keyboard open does your screen like go off sleep and suddenly wake back up. like when your in a car falling asleep and then suddenly a bump wakes you up.
I am just wondering if anyone else out there is having this same problem, maybe its not a problem but a thing to help prevent accidental bumping of the lock key?
Oh and anyone with problems of your Desire Z having problem of restarting randomly and must pull the battery inorder for the phone to start up....I read its the fact that the contacts are bad? possible

Screen not turning on

Ive had this issue for over a week now. Often when I need my phone and turn it on from the Power/On button at the top, the screen stays black, it doesnt turn on. I can see the bottom hardware buttons light up and the touchscreen seems to work, I can feel the haptic feedback when pressing the screen... Assume its a connection issue - anyone had the same problem?
I have the same issue, but just turn the lock on again (hardware buttons turn off) and unlock the phone, and then the screen comes on.
Help!
This has gone really bad now! Ive tried find help on the net, but nothing so far!
I have removed the SD card, Sim. Tried with and without. I have hard and soft reset the Desire severeal times. It works well for a while, but the problem kicks in sooner or later.
Pressing the power button the buttons light up, the screen vibrates but its black, not turning on. I tried to unlock it, but without any help.
Hate to take it to T-Mob and be without a phone for another 2 weeks...
Im trying to make a hard reset by pressing the volume down + power (also the alternate press home and back and then Power). Even this is not working... is it totally bricked now?
With the Monday Bankholiday, will be ages before I get my Desire back. Awww!!
If anyone has any idea how to help, appreciate it alot!

I had the same problem with mine but in my case I dropped it on the floor but the screen hadn't any visible problem and the buttons below worked fine and the notification LED told that it worked. I sent it back to HTC and they replaced the screen under warranty. Tell us if you found another solution.

So far my repair log states (phone still not returned):

I just wonder if the Sotware Update is Gingerbread or not...?

HTC One X Screen Not Working

Hi Guys,
Recently my screen has stopped working. The screen remains black but I know the phone is still working because when I press the power button the menu buttons light up. I am able to fix the situation temporarily by doing a soft reset, holding down power button for 10 seconds, and screen will turn on, but later my phone screen stops working again.
BTW I am on Android Revolution HD 9.7.2
Do any of you guys know what I should do?
Thanks.

Sounds like an bad display...try to get it to service if u still have a warranty
I think it could be related to your custom rom. You should try a different rom or go back to stock rom before sending your hox to repair. If screen is booting up properly when you did a soft reset, it sounds more like a software problem for me than a hardware one.

[Q] [Help] Screen Backlight issue (I think software)

Hello there
I am currently having an issue with my Optimus G screen. When i rebooted the phone / power off, the backlight won't turn on. But after a few tries / sometimes even just clicked the power button to wake it up after waiting for few minutes, the backlight goes to normal (and if i never power off this thing then the issue seems to disappear). I believe this is a software issue. I am currently running on LG stock software.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem or at least tell me the method to be able to get the backlight back always? I don't wanna always face this issue if i power off this thing.
FYI, when the backlighting is not on i have tried to scroll the screen brightness to the max from settings but to no avail. Only with keep re-trying to power up for few times then i am able to get the backlight back on.
Thanks in advance!
I have the same problem... You fixed that ?
