I've just bougt myself a MDA Vario from someone who tried to upgrade it and screwed up his phone. After reading some treads on xda-developers I've fixed the phone . Now I've got a cheap Wizard but with a little problem.
When I've got the phone closed the colours on the display are normal. But when I slide out the keyboard and the sceen flips horizontal, than I get less colours. It's similar with a normal PC that that's changed to 265 colours mode.
The phone is flashed with the latest carrier rom.
Who can help me with this problem ?
Thank
I just find out that this problem has to do with a broken flatcable. I searched on Ebay for a replaceable flatcable but I can't find one. Does anybode knows where I can order a new one ?

with the keyboard removed and doesnt with keyboard attached.
Did anyone expirience similar problems? Help please?
Have you tried a reset? Not had this problem myself (or heard of anyon e else that has)
Hey,
i tried it and no it didnt help?
Iam going nuts i bought the device second hand and
dont have warranty....
Anyone here experiencing the same problem? At first I thought that was normal, but at some point the touch screen worked while the slider was open and I was really happy with it but now, it no longer works what gives?
am i the only one experiencing this? do you think a ROM upgrade can fix this?
Sometimes (very rarely) the screen doesnt come on and I have to reset, but nothing like you descrived, sorry...
aw! i guess i have an isolated case. thanks twolf!
it's a screen cable problem. just fix it
last week, i had the same proplem. So i sent it to the guarantee service. They replaced the cable, which is connecting the screen with mainboard.
too bad my phone doesn't come with warranty. thanks for the info guys
my phone has the same problem,and I had used many roms, and all of them have the same problem.
my screen isen't working when the keybord is closed,
aneybody have the same problem??
problem
yes i do have the same problem ... my htc niki100 was not working when slide closed ... but when i open it works fine .... sometimes when slide open also it is not working i mean the touch screen ... i removed all parts of my htc niki and i take a look at that but all was fine and i dont know what was the probelm... i think htc failure model is niki... really pissd off guys due to this niki ... if any came to know how to make work that ... just post it and for u i am thankuful..
it is hardware problem. sent my device to service center and they changed the board for free since it is still under warranty. they said it was wear and tear. so it is only matter of time before the new board suffers from wearing out again. unless stop using the sliding keyboard, but tat's the main selling point touch dual is built for =\
how much is the cable $$ connecting the lcd to the boarD?
my niki is out of warranty............can any mobile phone repair shop fix it ?

If you google around you'll see this is quite a common complaint with the Touch Dual. There seems to be a certain flaw with the screen and cable which was never addressed. I had the exact same problem & eventually sent the phone back to HTC to be fixed.
Be warned though - HTC would not fix my phone eventhough it was still under warranty. They said the problem was due to User Mis-Use. My ass it was. I argued it out with them but in the end I just paid the UK£60 to get it fixed - robbing bastards!
You all seem to think it's a hardware issue, and I'm experiencing the same issue, but only under Windows Mobile (I've tried both 6.1 and 6.5 - all sorts of various roms). Android on the other hand, works fine. :/
EDIT:
Well now it's working on Windows too. After I ran Android... SO GIVE THAT A SHOT I GUESS. o.o

i came in here to say the same thing.. weird. works fine in android.............
another thing worth noting is that if you keep a finger on the screen while sliding it seems to work everytime
My Niki has the same problem, when slide is open i cannot use the "send" button on the touch screen - so i have to close the slide, to send a SMS.
I bought a HTC Snap now, so my NIKI just lies in the drawer...
Sad, i like the Screen resolution and Rom software on the Niki better than the HTC Snap.
At http://www.ppctechs.com/HTC-Nike_1047/repairs.htm you can buy a HTC Nike ToolKit with special screwdrivers, maybe the cable just needs to be aligned properly, or fixed in a socket...
Has anyone tried to fix it themselves?
guys,
I had the same problem. In fact, my touch screen was totally not working at all. Some threat recon it's loosen cable so i opened my touch dual and tighten the lcd flex cable. It worked after that, but not working when slide is open. I've just changed the flex cable myself and it's working fine now. hope this help.

could you guide me how to fix it? I'm having this problem as well.
Do you have any kind of link as to how to open the niki, screws, cable, where to look etc...?
thanks!
Hi,
I own HTC HD2 and recently it stoped working and i had to send it to be repaired. They have changed the board because the CPU has malfunctioned. Since then accelrometer is not working in any rom. It only works in Windows. I could not find any answers except that the new board installed could be unsupported in android builds.
Any help is appreciated.

I also found out that several more users in Serbia have this issue. Anbody else? Plese help?
This is a Driver issues, maybe the new board has some different Component, but is not only the g-Sensor, the Magnetic Field and Orientation aren't Working, this kind of problem take to long time to be fixed, now that the developers are Focused on ICS. I'm thinking to sell my HD2 and Buy Another one.

Maybe it will work in ICS if only we had the patience to wait.
It is wery strange to use a phone that does not have any rotation whatsoever. You have to try and take a picture or to watch a klip that is stuck in portrait mode and want turn. I cant belive that no one has solved this yet. PLEASE HELP!
Hi,
My N4 fell today, and unfortunatly, since then, there is a 1cm high band, which takes all the screen on horizontal, that doesn't react to any touch. There is only this band that is "dead", all the screen is working. I flashed the rom again, just to be sure it was not a software problem, but it didn't change anything.
So, is there any way to fix it ? DO I have to buy a new LCD screen ? Is it a problem with the motherboard ?
Thanks for your help

Very common problem. Unfortunately its not software, Its hardware problem,
Your phone's digitizer is not working. You need to replace the screen. Costs around US 90-100$
Sadly, that's what I thought it was... So I'm going to buy the One Plus One... Thanks for your answer
