Joystick don't work :-(

[Guest Er Zorro]

Hi everyone,

I bought a second hand SPV C500 from ebay and now the joystick don't work very well :x . I can't move to the right almost every time and sometimes I can only move to the left.

I think it is something related with the hardware (just the Joystick). Have any of you had the same problem? Is there someone who opened the phone?

I am waiting for your help 8)

P.S: I know, I know... I have to improve my english!!! :oops:

SPV C500 doesn't have a joystick..

Well technically it's a '5 way navigation keypad' but I knew what he meant..

I have spares listed here : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...item=5840580937

Diss-assembly instructions are in the pinned typhoon section

Mine stopped working right when i took it apart to do the dust fix. All i did was take the phone apart again, including removing the keypad and "directional stick." I popped it off, put it back on, then i disconnected the ribbon at the little square white connection, cleaned it, then stuck it back on nice and tight. Voila, when i turned it back on the "joystick" worked fine
