Hi,
hopefully someone can give me some advice on my little problem.
I've had my W800i for 1 year now, and its been working perfectly, however, recently after coming back from a beach trip, I have noticed several problems.
1.) lines across the screen
2.) the keypad numbers (1 2 and 3) do not work
3.) the upper left metal key (next to the walkman sign) does not work
It was working fine until it went through an airport x-ray scanning machine, but I think it might also be a sand problem (as I have just come back from holiday).
Have tried charging the battery, shaking the phone, taking out the sim card etc, but the keys still don't work (although the phone still calls and functions ok).
Please advise! Thank you for any help in advance.

Could be sand ingress, or possibly moisture damage - has the phone been wet at all?

i bet that this is an humidity damage. though there are many threads regarding to this issue(keys not working).

Looks the moisture has also creeped onto the circuitry... I'm afraid you'll have to send it for service...

get it to some repair shop fast, or else it'll deteriorate...
