(srry for my bad english)
How 2 unlock when there is no touch???
Me sum how the same! (Touch 3G T3238+ cloam)
The phone is locked & touch is not working @ all!
The "unlock" option is on the bottom L. but, there is no touch 2 tap it!! & I can't hard reset w/ any key combination.
Keys work 4 a new opened window e.g. I can answer a call w/ they keys but, they r inactive on homepage.
It's like a PC w/ neither a mouse nor a keyboard!!
When I want 2 install a ROM from SD, there is no touch to choose an option!!
Can any1 help plz??? Thank u.
Guy,
First of all sorry for my english.
I've got same problem 3 days ago. I found out that it's something wrong with the touch sceen. I ordered from local here in bangkok Thailand. it's cost about 700 baht or 20$ us.
I replaced it myseft it's not so difficult. After replace touch sceen module (digitizer). it's work perfectly again.
Dear funnyfriday,
Thanks a lot 4 ur reply.
Well, I was not sure if my touch was really damaged, mostly I though it was a software problem ......
@ last could unlock it by connecting it 2 the PC!!! Now it's unlock but seems that the touch has problem itself BUT mostly there is a software issue 2 as the keys sum times work & sum times don't!!
4 now I'll try 2 change the touch (the phone was bought from another country & in my country the phone & its accessories r not available!)
As soon as I could find any result & a matched ROM, I'll let every 1 know about it
Thanks 2 all.
hi - i had this problem too , HTC guaranty changed my touch completely , after a month i had this problem again and they changed the whole pannel again , now it works fine
Really!! Well, 4 me no guaranty access! I'll change the touch - if it was possible! - then I think I should w8 & c when it gets damaged again!!!
Hi xda-developers,
such problem is caused by an upnormal pressure that applyed on the screen (when set down on the phone while in your pocket), this pressure affect the two layers of the pnone degitizer to be twisted and contacted allways.
you can repaire this by repaire the degitizer as in the last section of this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noVnvDXWrj8
dont worry because it is not your phone, this is common tip and may applyed to any screen digitizer to release the contact between the layers.
another way is to replace the screen digitizer with a new one from HTC Care Center.
Hi, & thanks 4 ur reply.
I watched ur video. May b u can help me plz.
My phone is Touch 3G T3238+. The screen has no response on any part! only it makes sumthing like waves/halo around finger on touch; does this corresponds 2 any thing?? It got out of order just suddenly after a hard reset.
I went 4 heating but w/ a match!! not a lighter; mayb I did not heated it enough??
Do u know any other way plz?? Shall I heat it again?
Thank u so much
replace your digitizer my dear

hi.. recently, i feel that i need to re align my xdamni screen very often. it kind of annoying me, coz i coudlnt make a precision point when touching the letters (when makin sms, etc) so need go to setting-screen and do screen align.. after just 1-2 days, it happend again~!
i havve pocket breeze 5 in my today screen.. and wizbar advance (not desktop) only.
no i have not received any reply with solution about this problem yet. do u play games or open applications alot? i suspect the maybe that caused the off alignment screen problem. what do u think? any1 have the same problem??
i have the same problem.
i have the same problem.
Same here.
I've been searching for solutions and making my own test.
- Turning the screen (to Landscape) make the dis-align come sooner.
- This dis-aligment is different in grade from top to bottom of the screen.
- With a HR and a New ROM, a little better (I had 1.11 now 1.12 on spanish)
- And now a good thing WITH WISBAR ADVANCE 2 AND WISBAR DESKTOP IS ALMOST DISAPPEARED:
I've been making my Today's screens on WAD and I realized there was almost no dis-align , and I'm about 2 days without any re-align!!!
Also I made a screen turn (dis-align a bit) and then return to Portrait and is ok again.
Hope this help!
hmm strange.. as i said in 1st post, i am using wisbar advance 2 at the moment. i tried wisbar desktop for couple of day but then unistalled it. now, i suspect that dis-aligned problem could be because of WAD. as far i remember, i didnt have this problem before i install WAD and playing wit it.
oh, btw, iam using ROM 1.12 english.
I also have the same problem with my pda2k i dont think it has to do with software. I think there is something wrong with the hardware. mine kept to be going out of align every day on the left part of the screen and when i was squeezing the lcd using my thumb it was becoming ok (for a while)...
i was so pissed of of that problem because i mate asked me to send the phone to dubai from Greece where i live , in order to get it fixed. But of course i am afraid to send it so far because it might get lost - stollen ...
so i bought a qtek 9090 which has service centers in greece!!
By the way, at the time speaking i have my imate in my drawer without sim card (8 days now) and the screen has no problems at all!!
So there are 2 possible causes for the out of align
1. when there is not sim card installed it makes the cpu work less
2. when we put the phone in our pocket or carrying case the lcd is being pressed (especially from the zone belt clip) thus it keeps going out of align.
Today I used my HD like always. When I picked it up and tried to unlock it, the screen did not react. It does not react to any kind of push on the touchscreen or on the 4 touch buttons. The device starts as it has always, but I can't do anything with it. In the last couple of days I have not installed any additional software, so that can't be it either.
Soft resetting does not work either.
The device is fully loaded, has updated original rom.
Can anyone help me
Try HardReset (VolUp+VolDown then 1click PowerOn, follow display): if this isn't usefull -> Customer Service
D'rath
PS: HR erases all
After the hard reset the screen goes to a message saying: tap screen to set up your device.
I still can't tap the screen so the hard reset ends there...
Is there someone who knows a solution, if not I will have to send it back to the factory or something.
i had that bother with mine, it turned out that it was the orange rom that was causing all the problems. I put in dutty's 3.4 and that solved it
My provider is T-mobile. This means no special rom is on my hd. Is it wise to put Dutty's rom on my hd, with the thought that i might want to sent it back to HTC? Can I after putting Dutty's rom on it and finding out it still does not work put another rom on there leaving no trace of dutty's rom?
If you still have the original rom on it, seems to me that the best option is to send it off under warranty.
+1 Anfloyd say true ^^
Better solution if under warranty

Most likely a fault with the digitizer. Happened to mine and quite a number of others. I had mine fail and had to get it repaired.
Than that is what I will do.
Thanks for the advice all!

I have same problem with my HD!
So what was cousing problem - software(ROM) or hardware?
And did waranty cover it?
I have this with most of the newer ROMs and with all W6.5 roms.
Try to flash to a version from around april of this year.
I have this problem also - luckily for me I live in Milton Keynes and the HTC repair centre is just round the corner from me. I have taken it there for repair under warranty. Will let you know what they say when I get it back....which hopefully will be today.
Hi guys ,
i have the same problem .
Touchscreen stopped to work. It was up but not possible to tap anything.
I think to change digitizer and then all the lcdscreen.
Is possibile to change only the digitizer ?

yes it is possable to change the digitizer but it is easier to replace both digitizer+lcd
Hello i decide to post here because i dont know right now do is a ROM related problem or no and on the same time here will see it more peoples and hope someon to know what is this.
Yesterday something strange heppand with my Blackstone, without to do anything i just decide to see the time and when i turn on the device was totaly Freeze not reacting on any touch, im using the ROM from my signature from Mounth without any problem. So i was thinking that maybe its from the ROM what i did is Soft Reset few times But this does not help.. the device fully load But the screen is not responsive also the hardware buttons do not vibrate?!!? when i press them they do not react ot anything.
After i saw that the SR not helping i do a Hard Reset and when the device whole load the ROM and preparing for 1st time use i was not able to Calibrate the screen.. the strange thing is that the display react on touch because when im taping in the corners the crozz move and when i do all the steps just start from the begining all the time and i cannot pass this step.
After i saw that this do not help me alot i decide to Flash so i put Manualy the device in Bootloader mode and via PC methoud i flash a Brand new ROM, when the ROM fully load and im going again to the Align Screen i have again the same problem the procedure start over and over and i cannot do anything.
1st i was thinking that something heppand with my Display but i didn`t do anything with the device i mean drop it or damage it somehow.. this heppand like the device is at the table at home and few minutes Befor i speak on that Phone. On the same time Im sure the display react on touch even wrong... because when im pressing the X on the calibration screen is move and befor to do Hard Reset when i was with the ROM from my signature.. and restart few times.. when the phone Load a POP UP of notification appear and the strange things was that i was able to scroll it up and down with fingers so for this reason i was thinking is a Problem ROM and need to HR or FLasdh diferent ROM. The notification Pop Up that appear when you click the Taskbar somewhere you know that you cannot slide it because its static.. so how this heppand i dont know.
PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEA what i need to do let me know this heppand for 1st time and i never hear for soooo weird Blackstone.
THank you in advance

i still don't understand how the f*** does this fin into ROM development
but anyway it also happened to me,first the digitizer went a bit crazy,then it went completely crazy and than i replaced it with a new one
i did it by myself...it can easily be done if you have any hand skills and can hold a screwdriver
but be really careful with placing the new digitizer over the screen because any irregularity may cause dust to later get in between the two
digitizer is less than 20usd i believe...
lcd+digitizer are 60+ if i remember correctly
if you decide yourself for lcd+digitizer first check if those are already sealed to each other,because if not,you will have the same situation as if you ordered the digitizer only...but with 40+ usd wasted in vain
also be extra extra extra careful while removing old digitizer from the lcd
cheers
If you are stack in the align screen, try first to create a summy file named "welcome.not" and put it in the root of your storage card. This will allow you to go through ROM setup without align. Then check to see if the screen is responding and if not then you most probably need to do what farukb said above.
MOD EDIT - Moved to General discussion as not related to rom development

In my case, the SD card was corrupted and in the next 3-4 days the touch screen is not responding either... I should note that in my case, I followed the advice by Stathis and created a "welcome.not" dummy file in the root of the phone's memory, so it skipped the screen alignment procedure. Unfortunately the screen is responding so I will have to take it to the service center in order to have it checked, in case it is still under warranty (I have bought it 2nd hand).
Otherwise, I will have to order a new screen and try to install it myself. Wish me luck!
Same here, i have some kind of smudge, like oil spill, on the screen. i thought of buying just the digitizer but as i disassembled it, found the digitizer and the display are a set, so don't bother buying just one of the parts.

I successfully repair digitizer on my blackstone! It is hard work but its wotrh it.
Now I have to repair some more HDs. But its strange that all of a sudden all of the HDs I know broke dow in a period of one month... mine broke down at the end of october.
Hi,my name is moreno and i'm writing from italy.
This evening my hd2 is blocked.
Restart for 3 times,the O.S is working but don't take the touch of my fingers.
So I make for 4 times a hard reset,starting with "volume up and down pressed".
But nothing better.
At the end,i take the official rom for hd2 on the HTC site.
Nothing changed.
The O.S seem working,but the touch don't take the contact with my fingers.
You must know that the problems started when i was workin with android on sd.
PLEASE...have you idea?
(really sorry for my bad bad english)
Hey Sir,
It looks like your digitizer stopped working like many of us. check out this thread i started a while back. Warranty will cover it, so call HTC and hope you still have warranty.

I had the same problem and still have it. Before you go to the dealer you should be sure that it is not a software issue.
I personaly think it is a voltage thing. Mine starts after a couple of on and offs puches to the button.
sometimes it takes 1 min sometimes 5. but it always come to live again.
Do u use an extended battery??
