X3-02 Backlight & Keypad Problems

Hi all
Have got a Nokia x3-02 which is about a year old now and noticing a few problems that have come up.
The 2 main problems I am having are...
1 > The LCD backlight doesn't turn off or "dim" after locking or after not using for a few minutes.
I have checked all of my settings and all is good. This problem doesn't happen all the time and most of the time it works normally, but when it decides not to work and not "dim" it thus drain all the life out of the battery.
2> The other problem I am experiencing is that the bottom row of keys have stopped working (7, 8, 9, 0) The strange thing is the rest of the keys now sometimes work and sometimes don't rendering the phone useless and even more strange is that on a few rare occasions the 8, 9 & 0 keys will work but never the 7 anymore.
Im not sure weather these two problems are related.
I have decided to tackle the keypad problem myself with a replacement part so hopefully that will sort that out as the price I got back from the Nokia Care shop was extreme!
I thought it might have been a software problem and as I am on a MAC has been a mission to update but now on the latest version, 6.0
If anyone has any solutions or are experiencing the same would be great to know how to solve it.
Cheers!

You will have to get the Language pack installed thru' Nokia Care as it can not be done by the User.
BTW ...here is the reason for the lost language.

  • Backlight Keypad Issue with Mute button

    The only way to turn on the keypad is in the TEST of Hardware, if you go to the Next Step it turns off again.
    What I did was Turning on the Backlight Keypad in Test and then pressed CHANGE APLICATION (Something Like that I have it in Spanish) and then the Lights Keep up all the time. But if I go to the Music Player and I use "MUTE KEY" the Backlight Keypad turns off. (ONLY WHEN I PRESS MUTE ON THE MUSIC PLAYER)
    I beg for a help, i've lost many days on these, got no life right now 
    Model 8520
    Ok, discover too that going to Music Player and Pressing PLAY with the Trackpad tbacklights auto turns off too
    Tried removing batterys, manual ressetting, autoretroilu on/off, everything
    I realize that  (PAUSE/UNPAUSE) Music Player turn off the **bleep** backlight! WHY?

  • N8 Backlight (Brightness) Problem

    Hi,
    My new N8 (brought last thursday) have backlight (screen brightness) problems, meaning it sometimes automatically gets dimmed just after pressing a key and to resolve this i have to lock/unlock....otherwise it stays dimmed until it gets locked (by locked i mean the screenlock or keypad lock )....is my nokia n8 defective or is there any other solution??..
    Also the brightness varies automatically sometimes...idk why this is happening!!!

     I know it sounds counter intuitive, but you do need the screen to be brighter when in a bright environment, such as a bright sunny day. Conversely, a bright screen in a dim room would soon start to hurt your eyes and would be unnecessary anyway.
     So, the screen dims when in dim light, and brightens when in bright light.
    Cheers.

    Oh. I see. So I think nothing's wrong with the sensor then.

  • ...Another Spill. MBP Keyboard Backlight/trackpad problem

    Hello,
    A friend (yes he remains a friend) recently spilled red wine all over my new Macbook Pro. I was very upset at first, but have calmed down... after several weeks. I've dried it out and I'm taking it to Apple to get it cleaned.
    The only clear problems that exist at the moment: the keyboard is not illuminating fully, it is only bright in the middle; the tap-to-click feature on the trackpad has a one-second delay before any command is registered.
    The problem with the keyboard backlight, i think, is due to wine staining the sheet of plastic separating the keyboard from the LEDs behind it. Could anyone suggest a means of cleaning this or any other method of reviving the backlight, IF they have not short-circuited.
    Any suggestions other than getting Apple to help with the unresponsive trackpad?
    Thanks
    Jamie

    What I was trying to communicate when I added "which will also include the trackpad" to a previous post was that the top case, the keyboard, the trackpad and various other internal parts that are attached to the inside of the top case will ALL be replaced when Apple repairs the machine, because Apple considers the whole assembly to be one part. Cleaning the keyboard effectively is impossible, but it would be pointless even if it were possible, because Apple is just going to discard or recycle it. When Apple repairs a machine, it comes back in virtual like-new condition — there are no partial repairs. You may prefer not to spring for a complete overhaul, but that's what you're going to get — and pay for — regardless.

  • Early 2009 MacBook backlight inverter problem?

    My early 2009 MacBook is having a bit of trouble with the display backlight. Nowadays in order to get the backlight to turn on I need to fiddle around with the display until it comes on, then I have to keep it steady or it may go out again. I have traced the problem to the backlight, because when my screen blacks out if I look real closely or shine a light on it, I can see the stuff on the screen.
    I know this can be fixed. I do not want to risk opening the MacBook to do so, because I could probably break something (this once happened when I attempted to repair a PowerBook G4; I wound up disabling the Wi-Fi.) I did hear from someone who had the same problem with the same model early this year, he took it to his nearest Apple Store, and even though it was no longer under warranty, it only cost $45 for the inverter to be replaced! (It also had a chipped palmrest and that helped with the fee too; mine has a somewhat chipped palmrest as well.) Does Apple really do something like that, or would I be better off with a local computer repair shop?
    Plrease reply ASAP

    The inverter regualtes the power to the back light,  i had macbook 2008 inverter break on me and attempted the fix myself.  £10 ($15) for the inverter on ebay and about an hour of my time.  The reason its a tricky fix is because the inverter is in the hinge of the screen so the whole screen needs to be removed! as i put it back together i was silently praying that i had put everything back right!
    it worked fien though! i no 2 year ago when the original owner of that mac took it to be looked at they quoted her £ 150 ($230) to have it fixed so its good to see the price has come down for you!

  • URGENT, PLEASE HELP. N96 keypad problem

    Hi
    The centre selection button on my nokia n96 acts as the downward arrow key before it selects. Therefore, for example, if i want to open a particular application i have to select the one above it on the list as it will move downward and then select. Also, the green call button does not act as such but also an arrow key. I have been told that this is not a mechanical problem so is there anything i can do to fix this problem by a software update??? Any other ideas as to what i could do would be grateful!!??
    Please help
    Thanks

    That part of the keypad is bonded by either an adhesive pad or some form of glue on many phones, it could be that the adhesion is failing on both your phones. Because of the way the phones are assembled nowadays, it is best to get it fixed by a Nokia service point who will ensure that everything is correctly reassembled - if your phone is still under warranty (most N96s in Europe still are, just...), it could be done free under warranty for you.

  • Apple USB Keyboard with Numeric Keypad Problem

    Hi,
    I have a Mac Mini macOS 10.5.8
    I just bought an apple USB keyboard with numerci keypad (aluminium) and am having problems
    1/ If i hit @ i get <
    2/ if i hit < i get @
    3/ the function keys do not work : if i hit fn F11 it displays the desktop (as F11 does also), i was expecting lower volume
    4/ if i hit fn F12 i get the widgets (as with F12) i was expecting higher volume
    etc....
    It seems my USB keyboard with numeric keypad is not recognized.
    If i look at the Keyboard Visualizer (top right) it displays a keyboard that does NOT look like mine, it is smaller.
    Why isn't this keyboard correctly recognized ?
    Thanks
    Marc

    ok thanks for the tip and yes i admit i didn't see that...
    but it seems a little weird to have to upgrade all the OS to Snow Leopard just to use a keyboard.
    That kind of new device should be configured through a driver to download...shouldn't it ?
    I presume there's no keyboard driver that can solve my problem.. ?
    so you confirm that if i pay for Snow Leopard and upgrade my OS, my keyword will definitely work correctly with my Mac Mini ?
    Thanks

  • E71 keypad problem

    I just updated the fireware to the newest and I got the problems with keypad typing as followed:
    press 'z' get 'a'
    press 'x' get 's'
    press 'c' get 'd'....
    basicly the whole third row of the keypad became the duplicate of the second row execpt , . and enter key.
    what is wrong with that? it never happened before. and now i can't use the phone since i lost 7,8,9 and 0.
    Any suggestions I should do to fix that?
    Thanks a lot!

    I turned the phone off for couple of hours and turned it on and the problem was gone. However, just after a few minutes, the problem was back.  That really drove me crazy!
    Anyone got the same problem? 

  • Has the backlight hissing problem been fix

    Hi,
    I'm about to buy a small flash memory mp3 player and am considering getting one of the creative muvos. Either one of the newer ones or I can get the TX SE GB at a very low price.
    I'd like to know if the distortion (hiss) introduced into the sound output of the players, caused by the backlight, has been fixed for any of the muvo range.
    I would like to use the player under low light conditions where the backlight would be essential to browse for a specific track. Searching the forums shows that the problem goes back quite a while.

    I suppose no reply means the problem still exists and has been swept under the carpet by creative.
    I'll get an iPod nano or a Samsung YP-Z5 instead.

  • Update didn't solved backlight button problem

    When I first got my iPod (30GB 5th-gen) I used to press menu for a couple of seconds and the screen backlight would turn off, the first update disabled that function, now with the last update pressing and holding menu takes me to the Main Menu, has Apple dropped that function at all? is there anyway to turn off the backlight manually? is there a manual to learn what has changed in the last update? I really need to know because 80% of the time I use the iPod at my car and setting up the backlight timer to Always On is my only choice there; I'm done with going to the whole process of changing this setting every time I get to the gym and back again when I plug it to the car.

    "has Apple dropped that function at all?"
    Yes, that function was removed in the software update 1.1, so there is no problem to solve (at least from Apple's point of view).
    See: iPod returns to menu instead of backlight.

  • HT4623 Calling Keypad Problem

    I have updated iOs 6.0.1. Now I am problem. whenever I start calling Keypad which names as Phone, to call someone one number keep showing on display and I am unable to end it, also unable to call someone as well. Please help me.
    How do i fix it?

    Hi, my iPhone 4S had a similar problem in February 2011, after several attempts to revive it, and nothing has worked, as I was traveling to the U.S. in May, and was still under warranty at no cost to me changed.
    But now a year later the new phone looks similar to make a software upgrade problem. The WiFi only works to no more than 2 meters from the antenna WiFi, then away more disconnects, not a router problem as all other wireless devices will work fine as ever. What happened? my phone will have lost its antenna gain?. I live in Argentina there is no Apple Store here, I do not travel to the U.S., from what I saw on the website of apple change the phone for an equal (which will surely have the same problem) miss u $ s 200. I am really disillusioned with Iphone. I think it must have been damaged wifi antenna that receives wifi signal but low sensitivity or a lot, will this model of Iphone has a general problem with any batch of antennas?, because I happened on 2 different phones

  • Keypad problem for 8520 curve model

    I have  send the mobile for authorized service centre in lucknow name is Redington. He has return to mobile after 1 month without repair and send the massage liquid problem.
    I have pay to charge 220/- but i am sure that is not a liquid problem may  be  create in other problem.
    Request to you,Kindly help me because I have suffering is very big problem.
    bhogendramishra

    Hi bhogendra75,
    Welcome to the Community,
    I agree with your concern but if an authorize service center says so then there is a little chance of getting it on road,But if you still think that there is no liquid damage then you can try a few things to reassure yourself,and I also think that there is no problem in trying,So we can just try for that have a look :
    1.First make sure you have your backup.
    2.KB02318 : How to delete all the data or all data and applications on a BlackBerry Smartphone.
    3.Installing OS on your device :
    Credit sdgardne :
    1) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
    2) Download BB Desktop Software  BlackBerry desktop software
    3) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:Carriers ( but make sure it is of the same device model)
    4) If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
    5) Launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC. If, during the process, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
    Don't forget to backup.
    If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

  • Omen 5012 firmware update, keyboard backlight color problems

    When upgrading from F.09 to F.23, the ability to control the keyboard backlight colors went away, as discussed by OP. When checking the available firmware updates, HP Support Advisor showed new firmware and 3 other downloads, as of 30 July. Then, I pressed check for updates, and all the entries disappeared, now HPSA says there are no updates available. In any event, where can I download the latest firmware, and has this fixed the inability to control the keyboard backlight colors.

    The website detects what OS you are on, so searching for it within Win10 will show you only what is qualified for Windows 10.
    From the link below, can you change the OS:
