[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bibole:
Hello to all.

Could somebody here tell me the way ton disable the trackpad sensor on my HTC desire Z??

1 year ago, it began to act on itself, without manual action, as if somebody else was playing with it.... : hard to write any sms because of the permanent moving cursor, and many examples very annoying for any situations.

"I don't believe in ghosts, anyway" was singing The Opposition in 1984,....and so do i.

I don't have any use of this trackpad, except its backlight when charging or missed calls (i'd like to conserve this notification backlight if possible).

The problem is the same since i rooted my phone, on oxygen, cyanogenmod and Jelly baby, so it seems to be a hardware malfunction.

I have looked after all xda forums on this subject, before posting my question here.

Just one talk about editing "vision-keypad-fra.kl" located in : System>usr>keylayout... and no more.

Here is mine:
