digital keypad doesn't always work

[AC Question]

I have a Huawei Ascend Smartphone that has just started giving me issues with the keypad. Sometimes it won't show up at all and other times it will show up but won't let me type. It does this for anything that uses the keypad. Any ideas how I can fix this problem?

Welcome to Android Central! When you say keypad, do you mean the keyboard or the dialer numberpad?

Which Ascend do you have? Have you tried rebooting?
