well this is obviously a hardware malfunction. But this is not the only problem the touch sensors have on this model. On some other k850i u might find that the sensors activate on their own.

i used before many sony ericsson phone from 'w' series to 'p' series all got problem with it screen and keypad, other all work fine, now i am using nokia n95 8gb , wow better than sony ericsson can install application, louder music, zoom until x20, carl tesser, acclometer, ngage,pdf , microsoft office, wifi, smartphone, visualisation , front camera can use for capture video and image (which s.e cant) . i wont buy sony ericsson phone anymore.

Hey there, I'm having the Same problem with my K850i, My middle touch is going crazy and working by itself al the time. Try and get back to me, Thanks =]
DAMNIT! I LOVE AN HAT SONY ERICSSON AT THE SAME TIME! Their phones are so damn sexy, but all break down. The joystick my K700i broke down. The buttons of my S500i all get cracks in them. And now the K850I isn't an option either.. Damnit.
damn...all had the same problem, me too, that damn 3 touch button stopped working by it self, in Indonesia it cost me about Rp 250000 equal to $21 , and the sucks part is I must wait for about a month to get the parts.
its the worst phone ever. had so many problems. 3rd ericsson ive had in a row that speakers have blown , it freezes n crashes all time n background light has become random now n its near impossible to see anything
i hav never had this problem wif my k850i only had BROD 5 times lmaoo pain in th ass the k850i is tht why i only get walkmans now still got my k850i th n every one seems to get th blue one i get the green one :L so any ways jw if any one knew were to get t5 and t6 screwdrivers to open my k850i and my outher phones i hav qutie a few.
Add me to the list. Slightly different fault, but a very common one - pressing the Down action (and sometimes Left) or 5 activates the Back touch button.
Goodbye Sony Ericsson - I'm NEVER buying one of your crappy phones again having been a loyal customer with the 750, 800 and 850.
this phone TOTALLY SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!....i got this phone 5 months ago n then its make some problem like...the phone went off,lcd goes blank..touch key work its self....this model makes sony company goes down....i hope sony will make quality phones...
Myne is exactly the same guys the day i got it the touch buttons ddont work i have to slap it hard on a table on its front then it works for all of 5 mins
This handset is a pile o' crap. If anyone reading this is thinking of buying one - DON'T!. Get a K800i instead or a newer model, but NOT THE K850I - IT'S CRAP!
i found out what was wrong with it guys and gals!!! ...if your keypad lights up and screen turns black just use the usb cord that comes with your phone and get the software on the enternet to download it on to your phone i did it and it works... chazitz u dont have to send it off to no where! but one thing though it will reformat everything on your cel
i haft to have this fucking phone fixed i paid too much for it! someone help me only my keypads and the back of it the little blue light turns on. it just all of a sudden happened!
yeah., this happend to me and my brothers phone, i sent it straight back to 02 they said they fixed , got it back it broke then they send me a new phone.. this phone is a let down. . . turns off . . touch buttons ruin... lags.... music fails... memory card dont read sometimes... camera fails rareley but still does.. .. but it does have good sound good camera good texting buttons good volume and media player.. just to help thoose people who wanted to get the phone.. ..
the touch screen problems have been fixed with the latest firmware. the touch screen actually works 100% now!but.. the fucking shutter wont close now (not the internal one, the fo sho one)
i got a diffren problem. i was listening to music then it crashed.... and now when i turn it on its just a black screen with the keypad lights on and the camera lens light thing on i need help!!!!!!!! only had for about 4 months
second, thanks for the info! I'm not gonna buy this shit now. I want an experia x1 if att offers it. and if those losers ever release it. I can't wait forever! hey does this phone have a light for the video camera? the w600 had a light that you could turn on while you video record. does this phone have the same??
I also have a k850i, got the same problem after about two months, returned it, got a brand new(!) and now, about two months later, same problem again..
My touch screen buttons stopped working after I spilled a little water on the screen. Its away with vodafone at the mo for either repair or replacement.
thank you! thats the smartest comment on this whole fuckin page. why did se make that part touch screen when the phone is full of buttons? thats the dumbest shit I've ever seen. its as if they couldn't decide on what they wanted to do.
omfg athleast i am not the only one i have the same fucking shitti probleme wtf i have it for like 3 months and then in a suny day i take it out from my poket to call and then ...............BOOM dosent work but wtf like evrything is perfect and then ....broken lol
I had a similar problem, just that my touch-buttons was living their own life, they would press them selfes, i dont know how to explain, it went in to the menu self and such.
Had it repaired under warranty. Apparently there was heaps of phones made with faulty menu sensors.. When they repaired mine they just replaced it and it's worked perfectly ever since.
i dunno whats his problem but i tried the phones and it works like magic and i have W900i and i think am gonna buy the k850i soon :D i love it...but the only problem is the sound is low unlike the w900i :S
this fucking shit is so frustrating. Ive got same problem, and it's pissing me off. When i buy such a expensive phone (it was back then) I expect the shit to work, and not to use weeks on getting it repaired. That's so fucking SILLY yes it is. Anyone know how to get it fixed? can't wait till it's repaired.
u can till acces the menu by clicking on the multi button thing lol just incase that happens i made a shortcut to the menu and also i removed the flight mode menu at the startup of the phone :)
the same thing happend with my green 1 after havving it 2 months but got it fixed.this is the last sony im goin 2 buy though cause all the sonys ive bought have fucked up on me after only havvin them a few months
i hd a se k850i l green, the menu button hasnt function.. my cp had a 1 yr. warranty, but the store when i bought it, didnt know how to fix it. so i just try to email to sony ericsson for some action. sony sez they call me if the software parts were available.. i cant wait ... just help me where my cp will fix. pls...
the problem is your touch style, the screen is not touchscreen, but under it there is a sensor, (hot or res sens) it should be pushed or what. :D
or is there still a possibility of error, the water that went into the phone. I had this, because I also have my K850i
but the simplest solution is the service brand ;-)
