Top of screen not responding - Wildfire General

Not sure if this is the correct place but Can anyone help I've had this problem for a wile now, I cannot pull down notifications from the status bar so I've put it at the bottom for a quick fix. Also when I use keyboard in landscape,whitchever side is at the top,either q or p wont respond. I first noticed it on froyo 2.2.1,tryied factory reset didn't work.its the same with cm7 stable and nightly I'm now upgraded to cm7 #14. Dose many others have this problem? I wonder if its a hardware problem?

Try flashing an ruu to return to the stock firmware again if that doesn't work its probably hardware and you'll need a new digitiser.

Depends, you should try flash the safe ruus first, or download one, and remove the boot, recovery and radio

Flashing any RUU (Safe or an EXE) will not get your device back to S-ON. This procedure will:

I have same problem with top of the screen

Known Issue
Its an known issue with HTC Wildfire,
The issue with the touch screen, you have to get it changed, If you have warranty get it replaced if not it would cost you 2.5k to get it changed.
Once you change it you will not have an issue it seems HTC is aware and they just said its touch issues

Wifi suddenly wont turn on.

So i've s-off'ed my Desire Z and been running a few different custom roms for the last couple of months.. Then suddenly yesterday Wifi wont turn on anymore (running CoreDroid). At first i thought it was the rom, so i flashed another rom (DoubleShot rom) but problem is still there !
When i go to settings to turn it on it just sits there for about 15 seconds.. After that i get the message "error" and then its turned off again
I thought i have read about this somewhere here, but i cant find the thread
Does anyone have suggestions to how i can fix it?
What i find really wierd is that since this started the part in the initial setup (after a rom is flashed) where you are to choose which wifi network to connect to .. That part is just not showing..

If i install the stock rom again would that also mean to reflash the radio ?
Sorry I don't have the Download links as I don't own this phone. Ussually the drivers can be installed by installing the Android sdk as well as HTC sync. And yes going back to stock meaning a ruu will reflash the radio. Good luck

I'm pretty sure it is but personally I wouldn't try it.

If I remember correctly you can't. You need to be fully rooted meaning s-off. Basically s-off means radio sercurity off,among other things turned off. If you try to flash anything through clocklworkmod recovery without s-off,either nothing will happen or your phone will be bricked an you will have to buy a complete new phone. Best thing to do is fully root(s-off). If you need help rooting your phone,send me a pm,an ill help you out.

You're right that you must be rooted to flash in recovery, but you do not flash radios in recovery. They are flashed in the bootloader, and I'm not sure root access is required to flash a PD15IMG.zip file in the bootloader. I'm leaning towards root not being required, but I don't know for sure. Might as well go ahead and try it. The worst that could happen is you get the "access denied" message and the installation aborts.
I was thinking that about the radio, I just flashed my first one. After having my phone rooted for 6months. Only reason why I said root the phone. Is to make sure he has full control over the phone. An it takes some risks out,some but not all.

Yea, I was about to say you don't use cwm to flash a new radio but you got it. : P lol

Radios can be flashed in bootloader - otherwise stock firmware updates wouldn't be able to upgrade radios - but they most probably need to be signed to be flashed by S-ON bootloader. In that case, the answer to the OP would be "no".

Was my phone bricked ?

After I tried to flash a kernel (follow direction s perfectly) my phone kept booting on an o off i had a backup so I restored then, on boot it stayed at the first splash screen tried and waited several times no dice so I called CC no help she suggested I get my phone updated it would fix the problem (which it did) I'm wondering what was wrong wit it I'm android 2.3.4 no root every thing almost recoverd now an still wondering ???

Download the stock image (there are plenty of links here in the forums)...
1. Put image on root of memory card.
2. pull battery
3. put battery back in
4. hold volume down and power
5. follow prompts.
6. .....
7. profit.
There are plenty of guides to this with links in the stickes and all over the dev section.
Should get you back up and going with the stock OS.

[Q] Lost Root.. can't regain... HELP

Ok, so my wife's phone has to go back to TMOBILE by Friday Sept 21st, I have Virtuous Affinity on it and I Unrooted with VISIONary not thinking that i should have flashed something stock first. I now cannot regain root for some reason using VISIONary or even flashing a PD15IMG through bootloader,,, I'm not comfortable at all with ADB, please help if there is another way. Anyone?

Is your phone still s-off?

Visionary only roots the ROM. If you're still S-Off you have the ability to write to the partitions through adb or recovery.
Tell us what happens when you try to flash PD15IMG.zip

Still s-off... Flashing the P15IMG shows the progress bar on the right, then either reboots in its own or I reboot it... Still goes back to custom Rom.

I downloaded multiple versions including the 2.2.1, 2.3.4, and 2.34 (new) version... all those did similiar things, still not getting me back to stock. Does it make a difference that I have a custom rom with 2.3.5 on it?
Any other thoughts?

Why would it make a difference? Also, if it did, I would have asked you about it.
The only reason a good download will not install, usually, is if either you're on an unlocked bootloader from htc-dev, or something is wrong with either your bootloader or phone.

Hi Globbyglob, i have been trying hard to download your ROM. But each time after 9.8KB the ROM doesn't get downloaded.
can you just upload your ROM to a better server, even to 4shared if you wish...
Please try uploading somewhere else, I am unable to download it... Thanks...

I have PMd you back about a fix, did it work
Downloading will try it
Downloading and backup up my current ROM. Will try.
**edit*
Tried twice, after wipe (both times) first try I installed the the VISIONFLASHFIRST (did this change my version of ext4?), flashed ROM (RandomROMv101.zip) and OTA (OTARandomROMDesireHD1222.zip) rebooted and waited > 45min and stuck on htc One white screen. Second try I wiped and only flashed the ROM and same results.
My options was the sms on lock screen, and I selected (which I guess does not remove) all apps that didn't start with HTC.
Also adb devices shows no device so I was unable to get a logcat for you.
Going back to old rom.
