hi to everyone! okay..here's the problem..after a week of using my k850, there seemed to be a problem when i press left, down, 4, and 5 buttons. when i press them, it seems that also the right touch key (contacts in standby mode) is being pressed. can you guys help me with this? do i bring this to a service center already? or just a firmware update? i tried updating though..and i think this has something to do with the keypads already..thanks again!:)

Hi,

Having a K850i myself and experiencing some issues with the keypad I can say it would most likely be a hardware problem. I think, judging from my keypad (which has lighting issues) the keypad internals aren't seated correctly and in most cases results in various quality issues.

Its unfortunate that SE build quality has been declining this way and I would recommend either getting it replaced or repaired.

My k850i keypad looks like it came free with a Christmas Cracker...

When you press the left D-Pad or no.1 key (or any key in the region) it looks as though pressure's being applied to the screen film (kinda like poking a TFT screen with your finger and the fluids gloop about).

I haven't seen shitty quality phones produced like this since the early Nokia's. Terrible, terrible design fook-up by SE... Someone in their design department needs removing from their flowery, Mac infested office and given a good public flogging for designing this keypad!!

Back to the k800i !!!

Oh - I'm not saying the 800 is a better phone. I'm just saying the 850 isn't what it's cracked up to be. Took 3 photos with the sooooo-ho-ho called 5 mega pixel camera today - all of them were shite.

When you're pushing a phone on it's 5 megapixel capability and the prior model 3.2 megapixel jobby pushes out more reliable shots without pissing about with the ISO settings, red-eye malarky and "keep you fingers behind the flash" fussing - it's a "slight" failure in my eyes...

Once the k850i hype dies down you're left with a poorly put together handset with "rushed" firmware and slow navigation and a tinpot media player to boot...

Yeah - so the k800i's a bulky phone. But I don't need to fit it in my handbag. So I'm happy with that! Plus it comes in handy if you need to knock someone out with something heavy!!

Just got my phone back today after having the screen scratched in my pocket. Send back that faulty handset for a exchange or repair, they did'nt even make the screen scratch proof.

The same thing happens to me when pressing inside D-Pad. Sometimes it reacts on keys on the lower left side.

how do you think can this be repaired? can bringing it to a service center work? i mean can they fix this keypad problem?

A service center probably could fix this problem as the issue will most likely be to do with the contacts on the keypad however, they tend not to like opening the phone and usually send it away for repair.
