Know this isnt the place, - and sorry to post another hardware problem but I had a working Siemens SX56 on which I cracked the screen (screen worked, vertical lines appeared on pressing the case: Cracks seem to have been under the case at the edge). Everything else worked properly on installing the software. Could make, receive calls etc.
When my mechanic replaced the screen FIRSTLY the ear piece and mic didn't work. (it only worked on the external earpiece/mic plug) Then when he did manage to get that working (I THINK he did), the screen started responding to the wrong commands. So when you pressed the lower right corner which brought up the menu, pressing PHONE highlighted some command five places above it on the menu. And didnt seem to do much. Then he SAID he had found the problem and that it was working properly but only on the external earpiece/mic plug as it had done previously. Needless to say no amount of pressing the reset hole works.
Does anyone recognise these symptoms please? Is this a hardware problem or has the ROM somehow been corrupted?
