Hi,
My touchscreen stops working when I slide it open. does anyone know what the problem could be?
could it be in the slider? the LCD? or the touchscreen part?
everything works in vertical mode.
thanks
I know the cable for the keyboard can come loose, maybe the cable for the touch screen is loose also?

I changed the entire housing on my Hermes as it was looking a little battered. All seemed ok but now when I slide the keyboard open the orientation stays in portrait mode. Also the keyboard light stays off. I've tested another keyboard pcb from an old broken hermes and the same problem persists.
Does ANYONE have any clue as to how I could fix this, or if it's even fixable. Not as bothered about the backlight....
Also my internal mic volume has gotten really low. I have to switch to loudspeaker unless i'm in a really quiet room!
there is a magnet in the housing that triggers a switch to swap the screen, did you swap it over?
It'll either be what beermonster65 said above, or possibly the ribbon connector which connects the screen to the mainboard isn't plugged in properly - I had that when I opened mine up to repair the sliders.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
As far as I knew I switched over everything from the old housing. What does this magnet look like and where is it? If i've lost it is there a possible fix?
Thank you both for your responses so far.
Any news on the mic issue also?
Hi, i have quite a strange problem. On my MDA vario the touch screen only registers touch when the phone is closed. As soon as i start to slide it open (before the screen turns to landscape) the touch registration already stops working.
I've already tried different roms, and currently use Windows Mobile 6.1, but it doesn't really seem to help.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks,
Steven
The ribbon touchscreen ribbon cable could be damaged or has partially came of the board.
you will need to dismantle the phone and check the cable, note that its soldered and can be tricky to resolder.
I have serious problem with my o2 xda mini s pda.
After I buy this pda touch screen work perfectly but after few uses touch screen stop work or work sporadically in landscape. I started to seatch for a sollution. I found that the flex cable can be damaged for long time use but in addiotion the all screen can stop work correctly after dagmage this flex cable (my screen work good - no trail or something).
Now the touch screen stop response for any touch (potrair or landscape).
My question is what can i do ? Can anybody tell me what is the faulty part (flex cable or touch layer) ? Maybe there is other option...
Sorry for my english
This is possibly a common thing, but the screen on my dopod has stopped being a touchscreen. Seemed to work sometimes, then stop, then start working again if i left it in the sun for a few minutes to warm up.. Have striped it down to see if it was a loose connector, but everything seems fine. D-pad and all the other front-cover buttons work. Is this more likely to be a screen issue or a ribbon cable issue?
