For some reason my BlackBerry Bold 9900's red phone key (the one that cancels apps and returns to homescreen) has miraculously become touch-sensitive. This is annoying because I keep accidentally cancelling things and I'm CONSTANTLY hanging up on people with my cheek. Also, the 'p' key does the exact same thing - returns to homescreen. As you can imagine, this plays havoc for texting...
What the f*** is this?
Did you get the phone wet or expose it to excess humidity?
Have you pulled the battery and restarted it?
How old - warranty repair?
that happened to me with the default OS that shipped with the phone 7.0.0.294 (I think)
what OS are you on?
I'm afraid to say I don't even know what an OS is, let alone how to replace it with a newer one. Thank you for your feedback - please explain this to me as if I'm a highly-trained monkey or something, because I am far from tech-savvy!
Thanks!
As for humidity and restarting - I've done the latter, and certainly not witnessed the former! It should be repaired for free as I'm on contract, but it'll take bloody ages!
while you're on the home screen, press the ALT + SHIFT + H key together
you will get the White blackberry screen, tell us what number you see under:
App Version:
I see: 7.1.0.714 (2061)
your OS version is 7.1.0.714
you have a good OS, I suggest you take your BB back for an exchange as that is abnormal behaviour
