I have notices touch screen malfunctions when I used to overclock (don't do it anymore), but since my previous windows mobile 6.0 rom flashing (I have flashed two times after that) my touch screen works perfectly in landscape mode, and almost not at all in portrait mode. Of course if I push my stylus on the screen in portrait mode close to breaking it, it might register the tap but that's not good at all.
I currently have the WM6.1 Slim Edition 2.2b, but before that I was using TNT 6.0 and TNT 6.1 Roms. It's not a hardware problem, since the sensitivity and responsiveness in landscape are excellent.
Any ideas?

i have same problem as i think
i have k-jam and touch screen work good at portrait mode
but not working at landspace mode !!
help me to solve it pls if it's possible
i use wm6.1 TNT
So it's not only me. I never had any problems with WM6 or WM5 though, anyone else having similar problems? Let's compare out statuses.
hi guys i too have a similar problem... i am having an HTC Touch with wm6.1 from last night onwards my screen isnt responding to any touch.. did soft resets and hard resets but nothings happening.. could u tell me wht to do ??
Could it be the case that wm6.1 is actually causing the problem? Too bad, I love WM6.1 But I may have to revert back to WM6 if I don't find any solutions to this.
i had a similar issue a long time ago. i flashed back to t-mo's latest wm5 (226 i think) and then to a new rom and it was fixed. good luck.

I've been running a custom rom on my MDA purchased from T-Mobile for about 5 months now. I don't know if this is a software issue or hardware, but my touch screen will ONLY work when the phone is in landscape mode (with the keyboard retracted).
I tried a hard reset and I still have the same issue. When the phone initially booted up from the hard reset I had to even pull the keyboard out to do the screen alignment because the phone doesn't respond to any touch screen when in portrait mode. However, there has been a few times where it didn't respond in landscape or portrait mode, but this is rare.
Basic problem... touch screen working in landscape, not in portrait mode... running a 2.26 custom rom....
ANY ideas are greatly appreciated as I'm desperate at this point. THANK YOU ALL!
p.s.
ROM Version: 2.26.10.2 WWE
ROM date: 06-07-06
Radio Version: 02.25.11
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.12
My two cents
There is no way to know for sure. One thing you could do is go back to its original stock rom. If it still has the same problem, then try to get it replaced under its warranty if you have one. If not, I would go all the way down to the button rom. Then go to a stock rom to see if that helps. Oh yeah, I think the first thing I would do is slide out the keyboard and make sure there is not any crap up in there that is keeping the phone from sensing when the keyboard is pushed in.
Hopefully some part of my rambling will be helpful.
thanks for the suggestions... unfortunately i tried them all and no good results... anyone else? i'm dying to get this thing working properly
i have intermitent screen ribbon cable which means i have to open keyboard for touch screen to work! i will have to dismantle to check ribbon connectors, will let you know what i find
Hi,
I have a T-Mobile MDA Vario II for 3 weeks. Loaded AKU 3.3.1 ROM, there was no freeze for 3 weeks. 2 days ago I realized the actual windows is closing automatically after 4-5 minutes from power on. Start menu is appears on request but disappear after 1 sec. If I can open a window somehow it closes immediatly. Please help!

more information would be nice.. like 3rd party app's, etc... maybe its something you recently installed.. if you eliminate all 3rd party apps then try going to a different rom
Hi,
strange, because today I reflash the rom with black 2.0 and latest radio ROM but this problem is still exist. How can I do a full ROM erase?

you can try a hard reset which instructions can be found in the wiki... or try to flash a different rom entirely
Hi,
I did the hard-reset! The problem still exist! There is no appliacation installed only the pure Black Pro 2.0. I can't imagine what could be the problem! With the AKU 3.3.1 rom I got the same result. Is the any system log or something like this?
Previously I forgot to write an other strange thing. When I open the keyboard and the phone switched to landscape mode the start-menu open and close automatically in every second so I can't do anything in landscape mode!

Oh oh... This sounds bad. There are a few reported cases of:
1. Start Menu opening when going into landscape mode
2. Applications closing for no obvious reason.
The commonly accepted explanation for this is that there is pressure being put on the touch sensitive screen top right hand corner. So when in portrait mode the phone thinks you are tapping the "X" to close a programme. And when in Landscape mode that is the corner that opens the START menu.
Only a couple of things to try I'm afraid before sending in for repair/warranty replacement.
A. Run a business card under the screen bezel around that corner. You are trying to release pressure between screen and casing.
B. Slacken by one quarter turn the two screws on the backside of the screen. Again to release pressure on screen.
In case you wonder why it's OK for 4/5 minutes, that's because the device starts of cool and them warms up when beiing used and this creates a small expansion internally.
Good Luck

Other tip: try to realigned the screen. I had this problem, but now, tytn is fine.
hi everyone, i was wonderining if anyone else has a problem with there optical joystick...
mine rapidly scrolls downwards through any menu, etc at all times even when not being pressed ...
atm i have disabled the joystick, but i would like to see it working again as the d-pad buttons are very clunky and non-ergonomic
I have the same problem since this morning ....
Anyone else ?!
I have my X1 since 2weeks and it is already broken ?! Too bad cause this optical joystick is really convenient ....
Did you use a cooked rom ?
yeah i used one of itjes roms and the OJ instantly behaved normal
sometimes could be a program that you insalled that caused the problem, if I would be in your place I would hard reset the device and than test it again.
when my OJ was faulty even a hard reset would not change anything, i think its due to the crappy r1a stock rom
I had that problem with the XT9 input extracted from ITJE's ROM. I uninstalled it and everything went fine again.
Thank you for your interest ... This problem is very annoying.
I am using the last Itje rom (5.04) too ... Could it be the problem ?
Mmh i don't think there is a XT9 on this Rom (Finger keyboard 2 doesn't see it) but if any Sfkn2 could you please tell us how to uninstall it ?
Another lead is that it is since i cleaned it with handkerchief for optical glasses.
Sometimes the joystick have a regular behavior, until i clean it with this things.
My best advice would be not using it even if they say there is no alcohol into it.
Hey guys have used search high and low, and cant seem to find the answer to my current problem, i just recently bought a jasjam, and i love pretty much everything about it, but when the ROM was changed the owner said that the touch screen stopped working. Apparently it was fine before the change, but that it didnt work after. So i figured that it was a software issue, loaded the latest SPL, and relaoded another ROM on the pda. Now the toush screen still doesnt work, but i have noticed that you can tap the screen when asked to get to calibration screen, and tapping the screen will also turn the back light on, but i am unable to calibrate the phone touch screen after the initial tap.
i have since loaded remote screen calibrator, and skip calibrate, and the phone seen to run well, except for the touch screen, on that note i have noticed also that the touch screen will accept one tap when loaded to the today screen, then stop working, i have hard reset, soft rest, changed to latest SPL, and the latest ROM from the forum.
Could it still just be a dodgy touch screen, or does it sound like a software prob to you guys, thanx heaps for the time
Trix
Hey guys have had a look round the web, and i get the feeling that perhaps the touch screen driver is screwed and was wondering if there is a way of checking, by replacing just the touch screen driver? i have placed a number of different ROMs on the phone and none of them make any difference to the non working of the touch part.
if someone could let me know if i am wrong in my thinking please let me know
thanx heaps
peace Trix
Anyone?
thanx in advance
Trix
please can anybody tel me what could be the reason tha my touch screen is not working.. i hav htc touch hd.
it sometimes works and some times doesnt.
thnx
Touch hd screen not responding to touch or stylus
Touch hd screen not responding to touch or stylus
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In early February I upgraded my Touch HD to 6.5 from 6.1 and if am right it was energy.blackstone.21891.leo_Max. It worked for about two week and and then one day I struggled to get a gps fix on my tomtom. The next day the screen just froze with no response of any touching or stylus.
Managed to put the original orange rom back on it but could not cariberate the screen due to its not responding. I sent the phone to HTC UK for repairs but they said due to my having used unauthorised software the motherboard needs to be replaced and they were asking me to pay 168 pounds so they could go ahead with the repairs. I got the HD2 on a new contract.
Still love the TOUCH HD and was wondering is there another way of breathing life into this thing. Responds well to install new roms but the screen continues to remain frozen
Hello.
I have same kind of Problem.
My HTC had broken Screen, I had it repaired.
After it came back the touchscreen worked OK. Than I flashed it with the ENERGY Blackstone ROM.
Flashing etc was OK. Device started again and came to the Point where you have to tip on the screen to do the SETUP. But that did not work. I tried Softreset. Hardreset but No change of Problem.
Send it back to the repairshop and after I recevied it again the Energy was still on it and working.
Since a new ENERGY rom was out, I flashed it again . Result, Same Error, NOT working. To make sure that the ENERGY-ROM wasn't the error, I reflashed it with the Original HTC ROM.
Also this one does not work. It also comes to the point where I need to tap to do the Setup. Nothing happes.
When I attach the Phone to PC with ACTIVESYNCH, the Synchronisation works OK.
Any Help Any Idea ??
Probably you need to replace digitizer(touch screen layer, not LCD) Look on ebay for a new one.

Damn, I have almost the same problem!
I have used Energy roms for a year, without any major problem. I have installed dec. 20. NRG rom, and today it is completely messed up my HD. No response on touching the screen or pressing any button. After a hard reset the touchscreen alignment was came up, and the touchscreen is working, but I can't align the screen, it starts over and over again... and thats all. I cant do anything else with it. I have reflashed stock rom and spl, still the same.

same with me here... I also have got an EnergyRom installed. For more then one day now I get no response from the touchscreen. Everything else seems to work properly, e.g. the popups which remind me appointments are there.
Exactly the same here!
I installed energy sense last week, phone worked fine for 4 days then i came to use it and it didnt respond to the touch screen, however tapping the screen would bring back on the backlight?
I hard resetted it and also flashed a new ROM on, still the same, I found that it was responding but taking up to 5 mins to respond, i.e if you tap the first calibration point, after about 3 minutes the point moves, however calibration never completes.
I think the phone is scrap.
