Windows Mobile (Qtek 8500) Gone Slightly Mad

secret_squirrel

I have the above phone, and its playing up slightly.

On most of the menus you have the Shortcut number (1-9) displayed next to it.

Suddenly since switching it back on after a flight all the numbers have changed to Letters (A-I) and the pressing the shortcut number doesnt work any more.

Im wondering if I have stumbled on a hidden setting or something.

Anyhow any help other than do a hard reset is welcome.

i'd say'd its a conflict somewhere in the system, windows mobile buggy so your gonna find some strange happenings, on my v1240 the icons sometimes change..soft reset usually sorts that,i'd guess you've soft resetted a few times?
if that doesn't work a hard reset is on the way!
usually i hard reset mine every 2 months to clean the crap out!
maybe post a thread over at www.modaco.com, there pretty knowledgable over there

Fixed it. Lots of help on it over at Modaco.

Cheers!!

It seems to be a bluetooth issue. Deleting all your pairings and turning on and off fixes it.

It seems sometimes MS smartphone thinks one of your pairings is a BT keyboard!
