Start Button auto presses randomly

[rupps]

Hi all!

I recently upgraded to WM6/AX3L. This excellent ROM solved many problems I had with WM5, such as SD card problems, USB connection problems with activesync and the missing sync... I am really happy with it!

I was aware of a lot of people suffering the auto-pressing of the "start button", and blaming the LCD screen and high temperature. But, in 6 months using WM5, it never happened to me.

5 minutes after installing WM6 I started suffering this problem. It is not very serious, as it only happen quite sporadically.

This problem is specific of WM6? or this is not related and it was just a random coincidence?

it's a problem of your device... many p3600 have this issue, it's not a problem releated wm6 rom.

yes, is a hardware problem...
see warranty, in case go in a customarker centre for repaire o change the device!!

yep, it is a hardware problem, not WM6. happened to mine and they replaced the whole unit.... very good service but took 8 weeks for the new one to arrive....

What do you guys mean by autostart? I seem to notice this happening when I use my finger to press something on the touch screen then the start menu comes up sometimes. Is that what you mean?

Or does it appear by itself without touching the screen?

Thanks

touching the screen sometimes device is like press randomly the start button without start button is touched

Hi,

Sure that it's a hardware pb? I've been having this issue with different ROMS and a lot with the FAMAN ROMS. At present I'm running a home-cooked ROM and don't have this pb any more (not once in the last week).

Also with FAMAN this pb occured a lot in similar situations (almost able to reproduce it on demand), ex.: when entering the third digit of the Pin-code.

I'm not saying that this can't be an hardware issue, but as far as I am/was concerned, it seemed rather software/ROM related or a mix out of both.

Bye.

I had the same problem.
Sent it for repair and got a complete new device.

There is a treat about this in the normal trinity forum (not the WM6 forum). It has nothing to do with any rom!

Just out of curiousity...

Since the Trinity P3600 is out of production now...do you think they would replace a faulty phone with the new P3600i?

Yea it smells hardwarish... but the strange thing is.. it started to happen 5 seconds after installing WM6... had WM5 for months, heavy use, and NEVER happened. Thats why I asked.

It happens to me when I try to press about the center of the screen with my index finger. Never happens when I'm tapping with the stylus though.

mm gotta give a try. When it happens, I am always using my fingers. As I lost the stylus can't try :S
