i have a very strange problem with my C905.since i bought it the d-pad ''down'' key performed exactly as the call-ending key!even the keyboard service test menu recognized it most of the times as ''cancel'' and not as ''down''.i took it to SE service and they fixed it and since then it was working fine..until yesterday!!!the ''strange'' function started again and unfortunately the guarantee has expired!!
i tried firmware update,flashing, i even disassembled the phone and tried to adjust the keyboard of the slider!!
please i need some help!!!i cannot understand if the problem relies on the s/w or the hardware!!please help!!!

thank you in advance

I think you need a new slider flex cable. I need a new one in mine too, my d-pad doesn't work at all sometimes!! needs to find a better flex cable manafacturer

it's ok!!i found what's wrong, but still i need your help!the circuit of the keyboard works just fine(i tested it by short-circuiting the keys with a small screw), but when i put the white layer with the conductors (small metallic pieces that 'short-circuit' the keys) it doesn't always work!i guess it depends on whether the layer sits on the right position !so, can you tell me if the SE service sells only this white layer, so that i won't have to buy a whole new keyboard???


thank you in advance
