Samsung :: Messager II R560 - Keypad Has Become Iffy When I Press Certain Keys
Mar 20, 2010
Has anyone else had any problems with the Messager II / R560 as far as the keypad is concerned? My keypad has become iffy when I press certain keys. It happens mostly with the "T" key. Sometimes I'll press it and it won't register. Sometimes I'll press it and it won't register but then double the "T" the next time I hit it. It'll do this on some other keys around the "T" but mostly the T. I'm thinking it's a warranty issue. This started about a 1.5 months in to using it. I just wanted to get a feel for anyone else having this problem. I'm on Cricket...but I assume this is a problem with the MetroPCS version, too.
I have two Samsung Messager Touch phones (SCH-r630) that turn on but do not boot. The boot progress bar fills all the way, and then the phone stops booting (apparently) and is unresponsive.
I used the phone this morning, to check the horoscope widget it came with. It worked and then the battery said it needed to recharge. I plugged it in, it was on there for a good hour. I had to go to work, and unplugged it. I went to the car and turned the phone off, as we need to reboot it from time to time. When it came back on, all it would show is the R560/Samsung logo loading bar screen, over and over and over... I am now dizzy from looking at it. It will not go into base mode to reprogram, it won't turn off again, it won't show battery charging if I plug it in. Simply, it will continue to reboot, again, and again and again. Called Cricket.com, who "refreshed" my phone and reset my voicemail (just to get me off the line, Im sure) to no avail. Then they told me I should go to corporate Cricket store to have it serviced. It is an hour away from me!
My Samsung Messager II sometimes turns off and back on when I am surfling the web or using the qwerty keyboard. Sometimes it happens when I am closing the phone.
I got into the filesys of my R560 today using unicdma just to find out the brew system no longer supports jad and jar files! I've been toying with the idea of putting JRE from suns website on the phone to run blooover2. anyone try this yet? I hate BREW! it would make it so easy to install java on my phone- then it would be super fly!
I'm still new to Samsung and it's on Cricket. Anyway I've finely figured out how to get into the file system with QPST. BitPim wasn't working for me. What has anyone else done from here? Can you add brew apps to the phone? Or change any system settings? What would really be good is if I could eliminate the ascending volume ring when calls come in. My girl friend has the Samsung My Shot II and it does not have that stupid ascending ring. I know with my last phone (UTStarcom / AudioVox) you could edit some files and get rid of some default sound efx and other stuff. I have the R560
I just bought the Droid 4 yesterday and the keys do not react until I press them about 3 or 4 times. Is something wrong with the phone, should I take it back, or is this a deficiency with all Droid 4 phones. Is there a sensitivy setting for the menu keys.
I currently use the anti-glare Power Support film on my 3GS. I love the anti-fingerprint part, but I don't like the fact that I have to press so hard on the screen with the film on to type, etc..... Is there any other film that doesn't take so much screen functionality away?
When calling somewhere and you need to press a 1,2,3 etc. for an extension. Mine is not working. Do you need to have to have keypad tones activated in settings for this? Any other way to do it so not to have the sound audible?
I have a Nokia E72 and I am otherwise pleased with it, but when the phone is in the jeans pocket keypad often opens by itself. It is not nice at all
I would like to know is there any possibility to change the keys that lock opens. Is there even theoretical possibility to change those keys? Clearly left softkey - right softkey combination is not a good option for me
Sisters 8330 turns on and screen lights up fine, but none of the keys work. Including the ball and side keys.Any idea on how to fix? Tried restoring on Desktop Manager but got some sort of error.
I lock my bb my pressing the top left keypad lock button but when I press it again to unlock it it won't unlock!! The only way to unlock is to take the battery out and put it back in! It only started doin this yesterday.
I can't Press the Keypad button and Contacts Button.and the Icon do not appear. (sorry for the bad english)I tried Re-installing the Firmware (v31)But This is always Appearing
I read this forum before post because i have not fully cleared idea Basically i want to sent PIN to PIN messages between me and one or two contacts (using BIS), and i want to FORCE encrypt those messages (not scramble) really encrypt and i have no money to install a BES server for 2 / 3 people, so my question is how to do that.I was reading forums and google and the most reliable solutions (after BES) that i saw was: from this company http://www.atomichelix.com/downloads.html#bbpgp
I have an Omnia i910 with the WM6.1 Everytime making a call it automatically locks the touch key and shows this message: "Press the action key to unlock the touch key." Is there a way to disable it in the setting?
I have a really simple a question, I can't seem to find it anywhere on the phone or web. When you press a button or type a message, it vibrates, how do I turn this off? I went into the keyboard settings, on a h t c there is a touch type option but I don't seem that.
Does anyone know how to change the default directional keys on the Convoy? I have looked at every option on this phone and can find no way to change them. I don't need the web browser or the dashboard thing and would like to have other features assigned to those keys.
have a NEW samsung rougue u960 phone but when i press the My Music icon the phone freezes and it will not respond unless i take the battery out and turn the phone back again. is there anything i can do to fix this problem?
I have had a Samsung Galaxy S2 since christmas and I love it. However I have noticed more and more a fault I am having with my keypad. It doesn't seem to matter if I am using messaging, internet, facebook or something else - when I am typing quite often when I hit the 'd' key it just stops typing. It doesn't seem to happen with any other letters - just 'd'.
Once it has done this I cannot get it to type again. It will recognize suggestions where it shows spelling corrections (I am using swype keypad) but nothing is written on the screen. Even if I come out of it and go back it still wont work, the only way to get it to work again is to go into task manager and end the task and then start again.
I can't seem to get the keypad sweeping working. The box is checked in the settings but when I slide my finger across the keypad to make a word, I simply get the last letter i swipe on.
So i got my phone about a week ago and when i do a reset back to factory new, they work until i have done the set up of phone, it no longer works. When i check under settings and display there is no options for my lights. How to turn it on?
iv disabled some apps that i didn't think was important how wrong was I the thing is i cant put my password in now because the keypad wont appear when i tap or touch the screen.
