I have "Messages" button broken on my Siemens SX66. Can I still upgrade to WM6?
I read the instructions for flashing the device, and it says "Press the "Mail" button" on part 6.3....
Can I avoid that somehow??

I have some more buttons broken: left, center, and ok... DOES ANYBODY KNOWS WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THESE BUTTONS???:eek:

It's probably just worn out. The circuit board for the dpad/call buttons are smple leaf-style switches. The dpad on mine sometimes doesn't respond like I want it to.

That board can be found online for around 30 dollars US.

As for the home/mail/ie/ok button, those I don't know about yet (my ok button is a right pain to use).

You will be forced to open your device and upgrade your ROM when you can manually short-circuit mail button's contacts. At least you could find that it is only terribly dirty and after cleaning or checking cables it would start working again like my BA did.
