Ever since .247 my Standby button has NOT worked.
It's done this before, but then it worked for the longest time! Do I need to send this into RIM? My phone is unlocked/unbraded and I'm not sure where it came from. (other than eBay)
Is this a software issue? Or just bad luck? :(
Phone works fine otherwise, I just have to be careful when pocketing it so that the buttons don't get pressed
yupppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp ppppppppp
Why not just lock it? You can get the AutoStandby App too.

.247 working fine for me. Don't think it's a software issue ... unless the OS has laoded with a glitch.
Locking it won't give you the same battery life savings as standby.
Maybe try reloading the OS and see. Otherwise, my guess is hardware.

Assuming you tried a battery pull?
My stand-by button hasn't worked since the ninth day I had it... Don't really care, I just lock the keyboard...
yeah... I'm not sure what to do though
I agree with the above posters. Since you've said that this was the only problem, I would just lock the device. If you send it in you will more than likely get a refurbished unit, if at all. You did mention that you bought it off of Ebay. I haven't heard of anyone having luck getting service on a Bold that was purchased from Ebay.

Have you tried reloading the os? Maybe something got corupted. Long shot sure, but what have you got to lose?
I have had similar problems and decided to revert my OS back down to what was loaded on the phone when i bought it. I went back to .167 and my standby button issue seems to have disappeared. Of course, its only been about 2 hours - it may be back tomorrow!
