Title: Keyboard is dead Post by: dmad on August 25, 2007, 11:31:40 am The keyboard is dead. The only button who work is the Red button (to start/shutdown the phone). Smart button (or what's his name), Camera button, the number buttons, Call button, nothing works. The red button is on another circuit? My phone is locked? It's my only phone, i need the phone and tomorrow it's Sunday (i can't send my phone for repair)

Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: EOG on August 25, 2007, 12:33:14 pm Try to restore old bakup(full) if this does not work for keypad I do not know what can.
If you do not have full bakup tell so I'll tell you what to do next If you can open your mobile(take away the cover) you can try disconnect and reconnect your keyp which mean disconnect keypad? pull of from the board??

Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: EOG on August 25, 2007, 12:49:25 pm You can try to force BootLoader by holding *+# buttons and connect a cable of your battery charger. The mobile should start in BootLoader mode and you should have no limit tilme to disconect charger and connect USB cable or you will see if it is a Low Battery error

Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: dmad on August 25, 2007, 03:59:28 pm What can i do? Some tests or... something
LE: and another manifestation: my SIM card is dead. If i remove it and i put another SIM, it's ok. If i put my SIM in another phone, i receive the message "Invalid SIM". The SIM destroyed my phone? It's possible? ??? Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: Jithin on August 25, 2007, 07:43:52 pm That keypad problem is very common(Me too had it once). It is said that the problem happens due to moisture in the keypad. Many suggest to leave the battery from the phone for some 24 hours and it will be all right(For me,that did the trick). Else,clean the keypad with distilled water or alcohol.

Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: needless on September 02, 2007, 02:23:51 am Remove your E398 housing and slightly bend the mboard to the right. It worked 2x for me. I suspect the replacement housing is the culprit.
Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: dmad on September 02, 2007, 05:21:51 am The keyboard is fine. I putted it a half hour in alchool and after the drain, worked with no problems :)
Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: datto on September 03, 2007, 04:13:07 pm wat alcohol did you put the keypad in?
Title: Re: Keyboard is dead Post by: dmad on September 03, 2007, 04:24:25 pm Haha, good question: a romanian popular drink named "?uic?" (alchool concentration about 60-70%)
