My wife's curve lost all function from any button. Since it was out of warranty (15 months) I removed the covers, the keypad and lifted the contact membrane. I found corrosion under there stopping it from working, the moisture stickers were all good. I used some Que tips and alchol to clean it up.

She is still getting a new phone, the Ally should be here on Thursday.
