My right side convenience key does not work no matter how firm or how many times i press it. I did a thread search and found some people were having the same issues but they were resolved by pressing the key multiple times. In my case, no matter what I do, it doesnt seem to work. I have a 2 days old blackberry 9700 on the Bell Mobility network. Any guidance will be appreciated.
If it's 2 days old then return it and get a replacement.

Do you have the convenience key set to do something since there's a setting for it to do nothing? I'm sure you do, but have to ask the obvious. Setting is located under Options > Screen/Keyboard.

It's interesting..... The button pushes in with a click and feels like it has bottomed out. But it really on ly takes a little more pressure to push the rest of the way and activate whatever it is you set. I can imagine the OP is like me, maybe. I

en more force was the wrong thing to do.
That double press is for the camera, right? By default the right key is set to open the camera. Even if you reassign the key, you can use the button for a half-way shutter press with the camera.
I think that the reason for the slightly more "enthusiatic" push is because the initial click in camera mode triggers the auto focus while depressing further triggers the shutter. Don
This forum (among others I'm sure) is the reason so many are switching to blackberries from other phones. I visited here abit before I made the dive and glad I did.
