I can't make calls nor receive calls! What a waste for a handphone isn't it? Do you know a way to repair it? i have the screwdriver torx so i can open it but the keypad is weird : definitly not the same as nokias

Thanx to help me, it really is a pain to live without it.

yep, I had the same problem. youve got to take to a service centre where they've probably got to change the foil under the keypad. and NO you can't do it yourself

Ditch the T68! It is old, haggared and is sooooo sloooow! A t610 would be a better choice, or if you wanna be really "WITH-IT" a P800 would be even more better!

You know you want to, why waste your time fixing old(ish) technology? Embrace the new stuff, don't be shy... go on... EMBRACE IT GODDAMMIT!

No pressure by the way

Ok.. as i already opened my t68 (shhhht it's a secret!) i'm not sure the service center will accept it under the guarantee.. So what can I do ? Try ? Or buy a 610 ???

well you can't really try anything as the foil under the keypad is probably the reason for your yes button not working. take it to a service centre mate.

about the T610: I would seriously consider it especially since your T68 seems to be quite old. the T610 IS a lovely piece of kit!

I had the same thing happen here. My phone was not under warranty, and a local shop opened up the phone, stuck in a very small, thin square of plastic under the yes key, and it has worked fine for about six weeks now. It took about five minutes and the guy charged me about US$2. As I watched the repair being done, it really looked like something that would be easy to do yourself.

that happened to me. gently lift the foil just the part beneath the yes button. clean it with cotton damped with little alcohol. let dry then assemble it back.
