Hi there!
I have absolutely ridiculous problem with my THD. All of a sudden screen started to act like it is half disabled. In simple words, if a touch some icon on top bar, let's say Start button, click appears on clock. Basically it is looks like touch area displaced by half an inch down. I've tried to calibrate screeen and it seems like it worked for a few minutes and then turns back. I had to hard reset the whole thing and it did not help either. All images, icons, screen items appeared correctly on screen. Bottom menu bar responses correctly though.
I did not drop the phone if it will give a clue.
Anyone knows what the hell is that and how to fix that problem? Please help.
Thank you.
Anyone? Please...
sounds like you need to re align your touch screen. you need to go to Start>Settings>System>Screen then align screen
If you cant get to this then a Hard Reset might be the only way to go
Nothing is working. Now I cannot even get past screen alignment. Looks like it can be a hardware problem.
u may have to hard reset
then after that if it still wont work then u may need a replacement
Yeah. It sound like it is. Jast called HTC support, did hard reset again and after few minutes it is back to that misalignment. Damn...
Connected to ActiveSync and have you got 'My Mobiler' running? I noticed some strange screen behaviour with that on the Device and the host PC.
try pressing both volume keys and tapping the screen at the same time(volup + voldown + tap the screen) --- it will get you to align screen mode if that doesnt work then maybe you have some problems while flashing a rom or something!

I am having the same problem, it started suddenly somedays ago. I realized that when I hard rest it works fine for some time and then slowly left side of the screen stops responding, after a while only right side react to touch so you cannot access START menu nor anything else from the whole screen, just the left corners.Any solution?

Hi all,
Like many people's, my Hermes (T-Mobile Vario II) suffers from screen misalignment issue, and needs re-aligning almost daily. I've done all the mods but to no avail. It is out of warranty so I can't send it back.
Recently, when I try to align the screen (by pressing Confirm button + Message button, or by going to Settings > System > Screen), it just hangs in the "Align Screen" screen - it does not respond when I tap on the target cross.
Only a soft reset can take me out of the screen.
I am using Schap's January 2008 version.
Any idea why please?
But screen now is misaligned really badly and I can't re-align it...
Thanks.
EDIT:
But it doesn't happen every time. Very occasionally it would work...

Answer is easy... Schaps roms have "Ftouchflo" installed. It is nearly sure it is activated on your phone. In this case, the alignment utility is NOT usable. And the pda can stay with a non reactive touch screen till next reset.
Desactivate touchflo by using the touchflo configuration tool followed by a soft reset. So you will be able to use screen alignment.
Just tried and yes! Thats it!
Thanks a lot matey!
You are welcome
Perhaps this should have it's own thread but it is very similar.
My tytn (WM6) has suddenly developed a strange problem. When I go to align the screen, the crosses appear as normal and when I point to them, it appears to be working. Except... After pointing to the last cross, the whole thing starts again, and this happens continuously!
This started when I applied a screen protector and tried to align the screen through it. It was working fine before then. I have taken the screen protector off again, but there is no change.
As I've spent the whole day installing cab files and getting it as I like it, syncing etc. too, I really don't want to have to hard reset it again.
Any other ideas?
That usually means more than 1 point is touching the screen.
That's what I thought but I've cleaned the screen and done the business card trick all round the edges. I can't see where it could be touching...
Any other ideas or suggestions that may help?
I couldn't find a touchflo "disable" button anywhere on my Hermes, but I did go into "Remove Programs" and uninstalled the HTC Cube application, then did a stylus soft reset, then aligned the screen with no problem.
Hi,
I'm having trouble with my dual lately.
Seems like my screen alignment has gone crazy, i cant tap the start bar anymore, it thinks im tapping richt beneath it, also when i press anywhere in the right side of the screen, i always tap on the lower right softkey, even when pressing on the 'x' button (this is not on the left side, tough). Only when i hold my finger down for about 5 secs, the touchscreen finally notices and then the alignment is a bit more normal (cube opens because of shifting the pressurezone) but still it is off.
It's kinda weird but it acts like the touchscreen is a 'startbar' smaller than the actual screen, since the alignment in the bottom is ok, but at the top it isn't.
I tried re-aligning about 20 times, but it only helped me for a few taps, and i dont want to align it anytime i have to tap on start or x ;( (i also tried hard-resetting)
Anyone know a solution??
I dont really wanna miss my dual for 2 weeks sending it for repair
Thanks in advance!
had a similar issue with mine before. had no choice but to have it sent in as it was a hardware issue with mine.
As the title says. It's been like this for about 24 hours. I am able to receive calls and text messages but cannot access anything apart from the home screen with the clock. The volume button on the side also works as it is a hard button.
This happened after I was viewing web pages on the handset yesterday, I didn't close Opera and just switched the screen off via the top button then when I came back to it, the touch screen wasn't working at all. After several resets the problem resumes.
Any ideas how I can resolve this problem?
Many thanks

i have had this happen on a few roms
are you using max's theme maker?
if so you may have have selected the wrong tf3d manila version when you're customising. i've never been able to fix it once its been done.

Sounds like a hardway problem rather than software then, so I'd recommend returning phone under warranty
typing seems to messed up lately buttons get get pressed makes ms feel like itisn't working correctly
anyone get the same issue ?
i have the same issue sometimes. it happens if the phone is very cold, if its connected to pc or mains charger or if the battery is 15% or below. i uninstalled the sensitivity tweak which helped a bit

It might be worth realigning the screen. Go to Settings/Menu/All Settings then select the System icon, and then 'Screen/Align Screen'
You will get the old Windows Mobile 'crosshair' alignment screen which was originally designed for stylus input, but using the normal part of your finger that you'd use for typing, just press over the crosshairs. This may or may not help!
I'm finding that typing is OK, provided I have "aligned" the screen.
However when switching from portrait to landscape alignment goes out of whack. Ok when reverted back to portrait. Also following a soft reset, or switching phone off, a re-alignment of screen is required.
Does the device store the alignment info, or is it reset after each reboot?
Also does device store an alignment profile for both portrait and landscape?
Anyone else notice this, and is there a fix?
so i just replaced my samsung galaxy s4’s digitizer, the phone truns on, the screen works but will not let me unlock the phone, its clearly working thp since theres a clock displaying time thats accurate, showing me battery level and the date, but i cannot do anything from this point on, no unlock bar or anything, ive tried a hard and soft reset as well as sbf’ing it back to stock with the same issue arising, im about to buy a new motherboard for it soon unless someone knows how to fix these issues. Thanks for any help in advance, Ty w
any ideas?
Does your touchscreen even work? If not, then you probably got a faulty one.
yep

yes, boot logo plays just fine, cycles through the att logo screen, then goes to the lock display, heres a pic of the lock screen that displays atm, it tells me the date, time, battery level, and notification bar, and thats it, theres no response from touch input, menu and back button work just fine, as well as the power button

Ohh, but that's not the lockscreen.
That's the S-view cover screen.

@Lennyz1988 thank you
@sikboarder Try removing the L1 screw and starting the phone again. Or keep a magnet near you, when this appears, touch the magnet (not a strong one) neat the volume keys and remove it. When this disappears, force stop sec.android.sviewcover from the application manager.
Still if it does not help, try an AOSP rom. Touchwiz has this stupid bug.
