Hello, I bought a second hand prophet. But I have a problem with the screen : the screen does not respond exactly where I put the pen. For exemple, on the keyboard, if I put the pen on the "E" key, it is the "D" wich is pressed ...
This only happen in the middle of the screen. No problems on the top or the bottom of it.
Of course I tried to re-calibrate the screen many times but it does not solve the problem.
Does anyone know where does this problem come from ?
Thanks a lot !

Well it is very likely that your touchscreen is damaged but not your LCD. There is actually 2 portions to the screen which most ppl assume there was only one(well I did initially until finding out later when my screen broke and got it replaced). Anyway, if you've tried re-calibrating it and doesn't work..maybe your screen protector (if you do use one) maybe be at fault? Other than that, worse case scenario, it is your touchscreen that is physically damaged. FYI it is not really expensive to replace compared to the LCD part.
Speak to njbridges if you need to get it replaced.

I already upgraded the ROM to latest french version ... It didn't help in that.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your answers !
I had the same problem. Unfortunately it was a problem with the touch screen which was fixed under warranty.
the simply answer is
try to change ur screen protector, or just remove and re-put it on again
just try...

Hello.
I tried to do that, because I had problems to align screen.
I changed the touchscreen with another from a broken LCD. But now all I can get is a white screen, then a sound (like the starting sound when you make a hard reset or remove batery) and after black screen again.
What can I do to bring it back.
I've noticed that the touchscreen had some white glue where is the connection with the LCD. Do I need to replace that glue, maybe is a special glue with small voltage conductibility ? Or ? Help!
Anyone changed the touchscreen ?
PS: I think I will start a new post, maybe I will get some answers!

When you buy a new touch screen you buy with some conectors or only the plastic rectangle ?

When you say cut it means that a part of the conectors still remain on the touchscreen (under the touchscreen). Or no conectors at all on the touchscreen and that means you removed the connectors (pulled out).
Do you know if I have any chance to take another touchscreen from a defect device and work ?
I need your advice...
My Touch Screen doesn't function, I cannot dial out, Faulty LCD or Touch Screen (or both), While I click on the screen it doesn’t respond or it has a shift, I click on the top of the screen and it actual click on the middle of the screen.
I have no problem with the display - it display everything and correctly with full color.
What I think is that I have a problem with my touch screen.
Did anyone had a problem with the touch screen and replace it?
What is strange, when I hrad reset the device, on screen alignment process I have no problem to click on the cross, but it takes the device up to 3-4 times to aligen the device.
I want to order the touch screen part and replace it, I don't have warranty.
Do I need to replace the LCD as well or just the touch screen? Either way it will be cheaper to buy them both then to send it to repair.
when the backlight is off...and you hold the phone 20 cm for your eye`s and turn a bit up and down in a room with light...can you see a oil film on the screen...???
that is the digitizer....sorry german english..

Hi.
My Diamond 2 has stopped working with touch screen commands.
Problem:
The upper layer of touch screen somehow separated from some part inside, and phone doesn't react to touch commands.
It's same as you take for example transparent label and stick it to some glass and in some places you see bubbles, but it's much bigger area.
Solution:
Phone going to service.
Anyone had same problem with your phone ?

Digitiser...
You can get a brand new housing and digitiser from eBay for £24.99... I've just ordered one for mine. Unfortunately, they come from Hong Kong, so I have to wait a couple of weeks but my device will be like new again! You may be able to but just the digitiser without the housing... worth a look
Short term solution is to pull apart with duct tape until newton rings disappear.

Can anyone confirm a new digitizer fixes the problem? Seems like it would, just don't want to tear my phone apart and wait 2 weeks for one to find out it's something else.

Some people did confirm. Try reading post from a link that cyron wrote on first reply to me.
I've had mine repaired twice in the last 3 months with this problem. Warranty covered the repairs. Apparently according to the UK support 'it's not a common fault'. Yeah!
touchscreen can be actuated
I am Brazilian, sorry for my bad English.
I saw the picture on screen seems to be driven directly, if your appliance has pelicula try to remove it. May be keeping the touchscreen.

Same problem
Hey guys, I have been so much frustrated about my htc topaz....till now it is working perfectly. Since yesterday all of a sudden touch screen stops working...with ballooning effect on screen ...previously ballooning effect was noticed before 3-4 days,but i did not pay attention on it as touch screen working at that time..
What may be the probable cause is it digitizer or lcd screen gone?
I have uploaded the pictures also..
That's the Chinese Diamond2?
If so I have the same problem with a Chinese phone... There is a part of the screen that's not working fine (like a balloon on the left side of the screen). I have to press really hard and press more to the side than it should be
I've already considered in opening the phone to try to solve the problem.
Does anyone already opened his phone with success? Any pictures available to help the task?
indresh88, sorry to use your topic but I think we both need the same...
I had the same problem, is very usual in this phone. the tecnical changed the screen.

no definately not...it's factory unlocked asian version...also it is t5353 and official stock rom.
by the way how can we differentiate between chinese and factory unlock phone?
have you solve your problem?
Hi, use some standard scotch tape or tesa film. Stick it over the affected area and peel the tape off. This should unstick the digitizer again, it did the job for me quite often...

I have the T5388i dual sim.
I'm no expert on those phones, but I think an easy way to know if the phone is HTC or Chinese version is the front camera side (on HTC is on the right and on the replica is on the left)
Other simple way is if it's dual sim than it's not from HTC.
If I'm telling some mistakes please someone correct me.
Concerning the problem... it's not solved

Well according to my research...If you have standard htc phone, you have device name t5353,no dual sim,htc written on left side and front camera on right side....

it helped me quite good and temporery, but how to fix it permanently...?
replace the touch screen digitizer.
eBay have many of them...
I have replaced my cracked one last month.
Two fixes for the scotch tape issue
1. Always take along some scotch tape or
2. Replace the digitizer. This can be done faily easily, see some other posts.
Cheers
I've looked at ebay for the digitizer and I've found many... the question is if they work on my phone?
I have a DUAL SIM T5388i, can anyone point me the right digitizer?
I've tried the tape but didn't worked I don't know if I'm doing it right because I've noticed no diference.
Help me!
I also have this problem, It just stopped working. I was calling, 10 minutes later when i took my phone and tried to unlock it, it did nothing, when i connect my phone in windows 7 with mobile center, I installed SOTI pocket controller, to check if it was my screen, and it was because via pocketcontroller it worked good, but how do i have to replace the screen thing, and how does it work with the tape,,
Thanks
i also had the same problem. if im not mistaken it might be due to humidity ...
i might be wrong
is there any way to fix this without replacing digitizer.
by the way i have a TD2 t5353 htc original .
Workign Solution Till Now
Hello Friends,
I have TD2 mobile and today I had same issue. I was thinking it was because of the weather or some.
I remember it did happend several time before, but when I restart the device several time it does work. So I was ignoring.... But today it did not work.. looks like going toward end... So I did soft and hard reset without and that did not helped me.
So I switched off the mobile, "heated" the touch screen gently with my hand for 1 min and started the mobile again and it worked for me .
Not sure if this is a solution, but will work.
May be I will contact Service Center here in Hyderbad and see what is wrong here?
Hope this will help you all...
Thanks.
Well, I've solved the problem... changed the digitizer...

Hello, I have a Motorola Defy, that I dropped a few times, so the LCD screen got damaged with blue dots on it, I made a mistake and thought that the problem was on the touch Screen, so I purchased a replacement, installed but, it was damaged, the touch did not respond correctly, I wasn't able to type correctly among other problems.
I got a refund, then ordered a LCD screen replacement, now that I have it here, I install it, and it's broken:crying: I know, bad luck and being a rookie while trying to fix my phone, ok, I put back my old (damaged) LCD screen to use it in the meantime, and the old touch screen, but now, the old touch screen that was supposed to being working fine, it doesn't, it has the same problem as the touch screen that I bought.
Question is: the problem with the touch screen, could be related to the damaged LCD screen? or the motherboard of the phone is damaged? the phone works great, the apps, the games, everything but the touch screen and the LCD screen, but, as I said, I went back to the default touch screen after using the damaged one that I received, and it works worse I don't know what's wrong, please help me out, sorry for the long post
Please post questions in the Q&A section. Moved there.

Is this true?
true. fix some minor dead pixel if you put in freezer for one day. but your case... im dont hope much.
Try changing LCD + Capacitive Digitizer. (after trying the freezer trick ofcourse)
Well i will tell my story, which is related to your's as well,
i had a phone with resistive touch screen and it got screwed up, that is it does not respond correctly. So, i took it to the service center and they replaced the digitizer (touch screen) saying that previous one is broken. But, luckily the new one didn't responded to any touches they make.So, they replaced it again with the old one quoting that "your phone can't be repaired". So, i took it home with me.
Later i thought to calibrate the screen but the old one is not responding any more, no matter where i press
Later i calibrate it with the help of a software for windows mobile with the help of a PC. It took me to the calibration screen, from where i calibrated it, and voila, it worked... as good as a new one :victory:
long story short,
i think when you disconnected your digitizer, phones default values/drivers got messed up and are unable to find the new or the old digitizer you connect. I suggest you to go to the service center as these screens can not be calibrated.
Is there NO WAY at all to recalibrate the screen from the phone itself? or using an application? the delicalibration might be the problem....I'd like to fix it myself :/ thanks for the tip, never heard about it before!!

I replaced my original digitizer screen for the one I ordered it, it gave me problems, so I went back to the original one, which was working fine, and now it's not fully responding, that's why I'm assuming is something calibration related, thanks!
