cant unlock doors by touch

i have a 2008 evo x gsr with the fast key entry. i just got it painted and got it back from the shop but i used to be able to unlock my door by simply touching the driver door handle. now that i got it back from the shop i am unable to do this any more. they did happen to kill my battery but they replaced it and i dont know if that had anything to do with the problem, maybe there was a relay that went bad for thtat function, but i didnt notice the unlocking by touch was not wirking. does any one know how to set this up? i heard you can change some of the unlocking functions throught the mmcs but i dont see an option for that.

The shop might of painted over the sensor behind the handle, will it unlock with your passenger handle?

This. When I had my 09 GTS with the fast key, my iPhone was emitting waves that effectively erased the programming on the FOB. I went back to the dealership two days later and it was like $25 to fix. I'd try that.

However, you would also not be able to start the car with the little knob either. Does that work?

Inside of the handle (where your hand goes). Did they paint both doors? If only one door was painted and now both doors don't unlock - check the battery (again) in the fob (bad bat or incorrectly installed?)...
