I and two mates have found our K750i Joysticks are not working as well as they used to. We thought it was the hardware wearing out but have discovered its a sofware issue because the joystick works ok in games but not in any other application including the main menu.

Are there firmware upgrades that can sort this out?

Thanks

1stly welcome 2 the club. there r quite a few k750 owners who r harrowed by their joysticks. if a joystick acts up it becomes a problem at all times in all applications. i don't think a firmware change will fix ur problem as joystick malfunction is totally a hardware issue. go to an se service center & get the phone cleaned for any dust/dirt blocking the joystick's movement & thereby hampering navigation.

my joystick won't go up in all menus apart from the music player. its the same with a mates phone at work. his joystick works in all directions in one of the games, though not all directions in all other apps inc the menu. weird huh?
