Curve: strange number input behavior
- I've been an 8810 user for two years. Switched to the Curve three weeks ago and everything was going swimmingly until today...
I had my phone in my pants pocket where I always keep it. (Sometimes I'll accidently dial a number or switch a setting if I didn't lock the keyboard. No big deal for the last two years.)
I went to dial a phone number and the keypad is now in a mode where I have to wait 2 seconds per keystroke before entering the next. If I dial too fast it starts going through special characters and/or misses the entry completely. When I backspace it will magically replace the last character with one I missed AND place the cursor ahead of that character (instead of at the end of the input).
I tried every setting on the device and the behavior persists. (Hey, I'm a former software engineer so I _think_ I know what I'm doing ;^)
Does anyone have any wisdom to share on this one?

Remove the battery with the device on, leave it out 30 seconds or so, and put it back. That reboots the device, and cures a multitude of odd problems. And yours is definitely odd!07-12-08 03:40 PMLike 0
