My Diamond is about to go in the bin!!!
If anyone knows how to edit the registry to "switch off" the volume keys on the Diamond then please, please, please help me.
The volume screen is permanently flashing on my screen, and seems to be stuck on the up button which means I can't use the phone. it's not a hardware issue as the buttons aren't stuck or won't work, it's from a bad flash (according to HTC!) - i've tried stock roms/MTTY etc but the problem still persists from one rom to another.
Any registry experts willing to help
Not sure how you can achieve this if the volume is always on top but if you install AEbutton you can unmap the volume buttons
thanks for the reply i'll give it a try
What happens if you leave out volume control? I guess MS volume control would prolly pop up then ?

I can almost 100% sure tell you that it's hardware there is a sensor underneath the button that is probable stuck. because if it wasn't then a rom flash would have fixed it. there is a spray don't know what it's called in
English but something like contact cleaner it cleans electric parts for dust

Thanks for the replies everyone, AE button seems to have fixed it, although i'm not 100% sure that it's gone yet, as it could stop for a while and start again.
HTC did say it was a hardware fault caused by installing hard spl/custom rom (although I only left Hard spl when I sent it back..by mistake ) and wanted to charge me £230.
i'll try the spray cleaner anyway I don't think it will do any harm.
Thanks again for all the replies, at least it's semi-useable again...

This is my first post and I must say that this is a great group of people who know what they are talking about!
Anyways, I have had my 8525 for about two weeks and I am loving it. For whatever reason some of my buttons do not work! The dpad works but the two soft buttons, the start button, ok button, email, PIE, and the green and red buttons don't work. The power, scroller, comm manager, the left ok button and the PTT all DO work. I did a hard reset hoping that would fix it but no luck. I been installing and trying a lot of programs but I thought after the hard reset that any program that screwed this up would be gone. Please help I love this phone and really don't want to take it back.
Thanks,
Dan
I took it back and that solved all of my problems.
you took back , what?

My hermes has a similar problem, buttons under the screen sometimes won't work, but if I turn off backlight and turn on, it works... but not very well because if I press green button then red button continually, buttons don't work again after few pressions....
I have changed my ROM but it's the same, it isn't a hardware problem because if I turn the scroll it works again...
This problem is known?
Thank you very muche for your help and sorry for my bad english.
same issue with my TyTN...
Same issue here with Tytn, buttons won't work but if I use scroll button a bit then buttons work again.
Hey guys,
Exactly the same problem here and it's infuriating when I'm trying to make calls on the run and sometimes I can't even pick up calls.
I have an I-mate Jasjam ROM 1.31.305.2.
If anyone has any fixes or solutions that would be great. Or do I have to send it in for repair or something?
So has anyone managed to fix this? Anyone tried a hard reset?
I have no idea how to diagnose the issue and even whether it's a software or hardware fault.
Jasjam- Same here
Also my screen turnes white some times

I'm also having these problems with the front buttons not working. Very frustrating. The problems seem to be platform independent.
I really cannot believe this. When I used the search function I noticed so many people are having these problems with the TyTN, and no resolve.
It's my second machine I received from HTC, first one also had these problems.
HTC sucks BIGTIME.
Hi,
For two days i have some screen problems. My touchscreen does not react on touch. If i use the buttons it works but on the screen it doesn't. Sometimes it does work for a few minutes.
The buttons always work (but ther are just a few buttons )
Anyone knows what to do?
Have the same problem. The touch screen goes dead but the buttons below works.
Anyone knows how to rectify this problem?
I had a HTC Touch earlier also and had to give that for repair for the same problem.
I have the same problem with mine, hopefully someone have a solution for this would be very appreciated.
MrQ
Anyone found a solution to this?
My new HTC also now is facing the same issue. The touch screen has gone totally invalid. The bottom buttons work but the touch screen does not. The other big problem now i have is that the phone is locked and i am unable to unlock it.
GOD, if there is a GOD, save my HTC.
I presume you've done soft resets to the phone and it doesn't fix the problem.
Have you flashed any ROM to your Touch? What ROM did you flash if you have? See if it's a common problem with flashed ROM's.
If not, and you're on generic ROM, try to do a hard-reset and see if it fixes the problem. (Hold down both green and red button and poke the reset button while still holding down the 2 buttons). You will lose all the data on your Touch.
If doing a hard-reset on a generic ROM still doesn't fix the problem, then I'm afraid you have a HW problem. Send it in for repair if it's still under warranty.
well u can also try this, it may be because of pressure setting for the screen
"install a reg editing software like PHM and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and then DRIVERS and then TOUCH PANEL; now change the value of PRESSURE THRESHOLD. Remember to increase the valur only, try doubling the value acc to ur need"
If you don't have any warranty and a hard reset didn't work (note if you hard reset and it doesn't work you will be stuck at the screen alignment) then you may be facing a defective digitizer. If you are brave you can take a look at this link (complete dissasembly of Elf)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407323
to study how to take your device apart to replace the digitizer yourself.
I seem to have lost the vibration feature on my buttons. All tabs are checked. Not recovered even after a hard reset. Probably a pre-hard reset app I'd loaded affected this.
Does anyone know of a reg tweak or another fix?
Thanks for the help

Does your phone vibrates when called?
Hi - thanks for taking an interest. The problem seems to have corrected itself.
I had to re-load .net CF 3.5. Don't know if that had an effect but after the hard reset and a couple of soft resets the buttons vibrate again.
Thanks again

Sky740, did you experience this problem again? I have not installed any other ROMs but noticed it after I installed some other software, including hd tweak, advanced config, mobilmagic button stuff and .net framework 3.5. Did you use any of these items/think they anything to do with it? I hope my problem goes away with my first Upgraded ROM. I saw another thread with the same problem, he was about to send back for warranty, but maybe I talked him out of it. Any information helps,
Thanks!
HI Guys,
Did you manage to figure out what is causing this? I have just got my HD and have the same problem...the 'haptic' vibration from the buttons doesn't seem to work. it has been like this from out of the box and i have not added any additional progs (only got it unlocked from Orange!!). the vibration works for incoming calls so it doesn't seem to be an issue with the hardware.
Any advice would be appreciated!!
Regards
~Cinner70
well
well, haptic feedback you mean, any button you press, on touchscreen and all? The only buttons that are suppose to have feedback without touch response application installed is the home, back, phone answer and hangup buttons at the bottom. There is a setting for those vibrate items. Try settings, personal, buttons, virtual button, see the vibration check mark? Does the Teeter game have vibration feedback on yours? If these things make a difference for you, you probably don't have a hardware issue, but if your getting any vibrate, should just be settings. Some of us on here are having major vibration hardware dysfunctions, just awful
Thanks for the response!!
Sorry to hear 'bout the major vib issues
I have tried all the 'virtual buttons' settings and the touch flo settings but i dont get any response from any buttons. i tried TEETER but there's no response from that either, but again i get vibration when I'm called.
Just thought someone may have noticed a 'glitch' somewhere, cause i initially noticed that if you apply a phonelock pin on set-up, it disables the use of the end-key to lock the phone..and i thought it may have been a software glitch or something....
New to the phone and win mob so soz if these are noob q's

Hello.
A friend of mine tried to flash a rom and now his HTC Touch HD is stuck at the screen which is shown on the picture.

Is it possible to repair the Device?
Sorry for the bad quality of the picture. He only sent me this one.
Thanks in advance!
Hi
you have to Hardreset you device in you original state,to do that,you have to presse the volume button (Plus & minus) both together at the same time,than the red reset button beside your SDcard,at first presse both volume button,and stay on it, than a short presse on the red reset button, look on the screen of you phone, after a couple a secound you will get the 3Colored screen if you see the 3colored screen take the pressure from the volume buttons,after that it is everything explaind on the screen to go back to you original ROM, it takes sometimes more than one tray to get to the colored screen,berause the pressure have to be exact on both, plus and minus volume.
Thank you very much. I will tell my friend to do that. If other people read this and think that its a good idea to do it this way maybe you can tell me. So I can be sure I dont want to tell him something wrong.
Btw this portal is awesome!!
Hi
