Does upgrading ROM solve the screen alignment problem?

Hear that S/N before HT63XXXXXX have screen alignment problems and was wondering if upgrading it to a newer ROM (like the latest TyTN) ROM would solve this problem?
Can't really seem to draw a conclusive result from the threads posted but would appreciate those who faces/are still facing this problem, could provide their thoughts on this.

Hi, I've got a V1605 with a 628 serial number. Changing to the update from the shipped Vodafone rom and 48 hours later I have not had one single screen alignment issue. My scroll wheel stopped working earlier but a soft reset solved that issue.

Hi there and thanks for your reply. Did you happen to have the screen alignment problem before the update?

Very mildly on this on (my third). Mostly did it when using opera. A tap and hold could be anywhere on the screen. It was also bad whilst charging. Now it seems perfect but I will feedback more after a couple of days more use as it does seem to be something that builds up after hard reset.

thanks for you input. i look forward to your continued help on this matter

Yep, I flashed last night and no screen alignment issues at all today. I was able to reproduce the screen alignment problem before the flash too.

waveydavey ....
Paul here ..
I didn't realise you had any of these problems with your device ....
When did the alignment problems start to affect your device ?
Also ... when I asked you about BT stereo ... I thought you said you were happy ... but following the ROM upgrade you suggested it was 'still' not good.
Are you experiencing problems that you didn't have when you first received the device ?
My biggest issue is the loose stylus .... still being held in by the 'spring' but very little friction anymore ... also sometimes doesn't want to come out unless you rotate in the silo first.
Cheers
Paul.

waveydavey,
which rom version did you update to and do you have a link for it? Did you have to reinstall all your apps?

Does anyone know if HTC has confirmed this problem exists?
Have they determined if its hardware or a software glitch

i just got a Dopod CT9000 with SN HT625XXXXX with the English ROM and so far I have not encountered any screen alignment problem. Some users say the alignment problem is a result that builds up over time so I shall wait and see what happens.

It seems like on my unit the update has fixed it but at the same time hasn't.
Yesterday it lost alignment on the right hand side of the screen. Left was fine but right was 1cm to the left of where it should've been. I realigne the screen and ten minutes later the rigth hand side was 1cm to the right of where it should've been. It might have just got a bit confused but I'll continue to keep an eye on it and report back.
First time since the rom became available as I flashed it as soon as it appeared here.

Phil,
Had this happened after making a lot of calls or anything else that would heat the device up? The hardware aspect of the issue is allegedly that a heating issue causes the screen to become misaligned.

Not really, It was in my pocket while I was shopping when I recieved an email. Checked it and noticed the alignment. Realigned the screen. 10 minutes later and I got another email and it had gone back to the previous alignment.
Heat hasn't affected it in the last few days. An hour and a half on the train surfing using opera full screen every morning and I didn't have any issues even though I could feel it getting hot.
No added software or different use after the initial set up.
I'll keep an eye on it. It could've been "just one of those things" and the fact that it went back to where it had been would back that up. I have had a few problems with the scroll wheel not functioning since the upgrade though. Maybe 2 or 3 times it has just refused to work until a soft reset.
Phil

well so far i have yet ot encounter the problem. everything seems to be ok for me but i have yet to push the device like making long calls or sirfing on it for a long time. will keep on testing and keep you updated.

How were you able to reproduce the screen alignment problem before you flashed your device.

I've called the HTC support in Italy and they told me to send the TyTN back for a swap.

HELP...Digitizer buggered

help needed
my digitizer appears to be on the way out, the touch screen alignment keeps shifting for no good reason, it used to do it only when i rotated the screen but now it even happens when i keep it in portrait only.
Also, right after i turn the uni on the touch screen won`t work for atleast a couple the seconds, no clicking noise and no indication i am touching it all.
The problem is getting worse with time.
Any thoughts/advice will be much appreciated.

same for me.
doesnt happen when i switch from portrait to landscape, but the alignment keeps getting messed up.
i'm thinking of opening the screen part, maybe i'll tighten the lcd and screws inside or something...

lets hope it will make a difference.

Bump. Any joy?

i gave in and ordered a new touch screen from ebay, £11 inc p&p, can`t argue with that.....

screen not arrived yet..... but the problems i was having seem to have gone away ?.
i`ve just flashed a different ROM, (although it was one i`d flashed before), and the problems i was having are gone, very weird.
this wasn`t the first time i`d re-flashed since the problem came up, and i`ve re-loaded all the same software i had when i was getting digitizer drift.
i will probably re-place the screen (when it comes ) anyway, but.....lets hear it for faults that fix them-selves.

Seems so!!
im on the 10th day without ANY problems! screen alignment is accurate and STAYS that way!
im happy so far. maybe you should try it also...

Lower part of screen stopped responding

After 4 months of flawless work, the lower part of the screen (a strip several millimeters from the edge) suddenly stopped responding properly!
E.g., all buttons in this area (including launcher/phone/+ on home screen) either don't work at all, or sometimes activate after a while when strongly pressed with the thumb (orientation doesn't matter).
Just two hours before they responded fine to the index finger.
Also, I've noticed that when I "multi-touch" the lower line in a file browser with two fingers, it works nice! Buttons are too small for that, however
I first tried to restore backup, but it didn't help, of course.
Has anybody had the same problem?? I guess it's a warranty case ...

I would agree, it's probably a hardware problem that you'll have to bring your phone in for service to get fixed.

I'm having that same problem my self, but just now and then. What helped with me is that I press the upper left corner of the phone with my other hand and then the lower part works fine, so i think i should get a new digitizer or its just loose connector.

im having the same problem , i have put up with it for the past few weeks and its driving me nuts now. today i did a factory reset which made no difference , i called htc who didnt sound a bit suprised by my phone call it gets picked up tomorrow morning to go for repair so the question is ... is this a common fault? and how the hell am i gonna cope without my hero in my pocket ?

Yeah happened to mine last week, a few have had the same issue where it's just the launcher bit not responding. Although the good news is that I'm getting it back tomorrow though so it's good times!

I had the same problem with my touchscreen (after a month or so!)
Mine got picked up thursday by HTC and I just checked the tracking site and they just recieved it.
I wonder how long it's going to take

Visited their service center last week.
They've immediately replaced my screen with a new one without any ado. Now everything works as before!
BUT a friend of mine who bought his Hero in January is having similar problems now...

It is a common problem according to HTC.
Mine was repaired in just 10 days.

Same problem here, did htc said anything about this problem? is it a common fault?
thank you

I said it in the post above yours.

ah yes, right, thank you

If they acknowledge it officially, couldn't you provide a link please?

i gave mine last week to repair, they returned to me unfixed. on the paper stated that they only updated the software, what a dumb this htc guys. need to go back and tell them again the same story. im wasting my time only for this. wtf

I recently had this problem. The 3 buttons at the bottom of the screen wouldn't respond, took it into T-Mobile who said I'd have it back within about 7 to 10 days... 3 weeks later I got a text saying I could collect my phone...
On the paper sheet it says they've replaced the lens.. Which I can see they have as before I had a miniscule hairline scratch near the top.
They also mention a software update (1.0.0.A6288)
Either way it works nicely now.

I've recently experienced the same issue - the lower part of the screen, the one where the LauncherPro icons usually are stopped responding to touch. If I press really hard it works sometimes, but it's pretty annoying. I didn't sit on the phone or drop it recently, it just stopped working all of a sudden.
Is there anything I can do, as the phone is out of warranty ?

HTC South Africa gave me a new hero after I took mine in for the 3rd time. Hardware problem. Very happy with their service.

i have this exact same problem, is the only solution to send to htc? >_> Cuz my warranty's out already unfortunately... i flashed my hero to CyanogenMod 7 and it seems to have helped, but still not completely responsive... I also have a problem where at times i completely lose control of my touch screen where the spots i touch seem to respond to opposite sides of the screen... anyone else?

Remove battery, Remove sim card. put a dryer on the htc logo for about 40 mins. put the phone under a heavy object. Let it dry for about 15 mins and your fixed.

^ wtf do u mean?... are u just being a gimp...

Major touch screen problem with touch hd!!

touchscreen was working today morning, took battery out for 2 hours, turned it back on and it was working abit weird, and now i cant press any touchscreen buttons atall!
So no softkeys (pick call, home etc.) and nothining on the big screen! I can turn on the phone, press the power button and volume buttons, see my home screen get calls etc.. hard reset twice, took battery out, nothing does it .. gonna try flash it but dont think itll do it ... and ideas?
Im in uk aswell if that makes a diff

Dear All,
I have similar problem. Usuallí I use on my HD NRG ROM. About 3 weeks ago I updated to the latest NRG WM 6.5 23xxx ROM with Sense 2.5 Maxmanila version, and since this upgrade the touch screen position moving randomized up or down from 2 mm to 30mm!!! After this ROM I tryed updating each newer version, but not changed nothing. I need realign the screen about 10 times / day!!! The phone I never dropped or cracked.
Can help me somebody what happened with my HD?

I had this happen to me yesterday. I was surfing on my phone as per the norm. Put my phone down. Got a txt, picked it up and it wouldnt allow me to access it. I thought it must be a freeze as it has happened occasionally.
So I restarted.............and nothing. No response AT ALL from the touch screen.
I have noticed the oily spot problem on the most part of my screen, and thescreen doesnt have that little give it used to when using it (paranoia possibly)
So I can only assume something has given within the screen. Ive been searching all day on the internet for causes and fixes but nothing has come up.
The volume and power buttons work but I cant do anything at all with the phone as its obviously all touch based.
Is this a screen replacement job then or is the whole phone goosed?
Roheelshah if you turn your phone off do you have the massive oily screen thing?
Any help is most appreciated....

I had the same thing, a oily spot, but it was there for months, then i noticed another new spot (looked like a tiny tiny burn) and thats when it stopped working completely... ive ordered a new screen which should be comming in a few days, im hoping thats the issue
will let you know if it works ....
keep me updated if you find anything
thanks!

whats it do? and where from??

I just posted something like this a few days ago, pulled my phone out and screen wouldnt respond, had these marks all over my screen, "swirly marks" as i describe it, very well could be the oily marks you are talking about. you can move them around with your finger right?
anyway, i took my sim out, tryna find a spare phone, couple hours later the marks were gone and screen started working again, touch wood its been fine since.
no idea what happened, but try letting it air out or something

ok basically i received a new digitizer today (the actual touchscreen) ...
i dismantled the whole phone using the service manual and some video some guy made (VERY HELPFUL, if anyone wants it for any reason i can post a link), ok so i got rid of all the top bits, the circuit boards (or watever theyre called)
I got down to just the bezel, lcd and digitizer (dont know what a bezel is, the lcd is where the display actually is and digitizer is directly stuck ontop of that)
Apparently when replacing the screen, htc have made it so that you have to replace all three of those parts instead of individual ones, but you can buy them seperately so i thought i'd hero it.
i poked out the screen from the frame (some chewingum like stuff holding it in) then i started peeling off the digitizer (if you get one and want to try it you'll know where to peel) ... this was a mistake tho cause the lcd is unbelievebly sensitive so while peeling off it left scratches on the lcd, and me not knowing the lcd is sticky tried to wipe them and use a dust free cloth, which left alot of crap on the actual lcd!
i managed to get the digitizer off and ripped the cable that goes from digitizer to whatever reads our fingers on the screen, took it all off, placed the new one directly ontop and fed the wire exactly how it was for the first screen.
Put it all together again
Now I did mess up my screen badly, but in a good way! .. i now have full touchscreen working (smoother than ever) but my LCD display is near enough gone, so it looks like the screens really really dark, and i have to tilt it at certain angles to see the screen..
After all of this i now have a touch hd i can controll from my pc (using mymobiler) so i can recieve calls, send texts all from my pc when connected thru active sync, can even play teeter ... but not really the same!
I wouldnt recomend anyone to try what i did, although i think its worth the risk as I would have to replace the lcd anyways if i wanted a new screen in the first place... and who knows you might be able to peel the digitizer off clean (NEVER EVER EVER TOUCH LCD WITH ANYTHING!!!).
It all cost me around 10-15£ for the digitizer and screwdrivers and alot of hours dismantling phone compared to 50-100£ for a new lcd.
I am either going to get a new lcd now so i can actually see the screen, or get a new phone.
Sorry for the essay but hopefully this helps someone in any similar situation
if i do get a new lcd will post how it goes and if it sorts out everything
if anyone knows of any other reasons why my lcd would be so dim (brightness is 100%) accept for me getting carried away with it ... help would be appreciated

Yeah swirly oil marks is how myne started ... i think i finished off the screen by trying to press hard on the mark to try and clear it .. . so be careful with it.. but think that overall the screen had seen better days (course only a few weeks after warrenty finishes) ... all conections inside were ok aswell

Any solution?

unfortunately, a friend of mine changed the touchscreen without success. Phone was in perfect state, no drop, no flash. Just the touch not responding. I'm not sure that changing whole part lcd+digitizer solve the problem.

Hi all!
I've got similar problem with my touch HD. It's stock since I bought it. My touch sense was acting weird, like it wasn't properly calibrated. Like, when I press 7 on phone pad, the phone actually presses 1, and if I press 0, phone presses 5 and so on..
I've tried to align the screen, but it doesn't get aligned the first time. I have to repeat the process about 4 times before it gets aligned. That's good for about few minutes and the problem is back. Hard reset was also done, 2 times.
Could this be a fixed with a software update? Does this mean that digitizer will soon be dead?
Thank you for your help
Regards

Just did the hard reset. When it asked me to align the screen, I just couldn't align the top left corner. I had to press it like 50 times before cross went to the lower corner. Otherwise, after the align it's good for about couple of seconds and then it's just pressing all over.
I thought I had just some software issues because the screen wasn't dead, it responded to my touch. So, I'll probably have to buy a new screen and digitizer, right? Or do you have any other ideas?
Thank you again for your help!

firstly screencal installs calibration settings not for blackstone so do not install it, no point. (btw it also increases device touch sensitivity)
secondly you guys should try and install the calibration settings for blackstone, basicly what the align screen does, not sure where to find them for download but i could post the registrys if someone wants to make a .cab from them. (atm i cba making the .cab but i am able to do it )
if the calibration settings do not work i think it is best to buy a new lcd package (or buy new device and give me old one for spares oj)
Rn

hi buddy ! What you mean GSensorCalibrator ??

i didnt mention anything about gsensor calibration dude.
tried and tested screencal the other week and it screwed my blackstone.
install these instead:
*screen calibration, sets the blackstone touch points: (aligning the screen)
if you install a cab with these registrys it should fix the alignment problem.
(if it doesnt then its hardware issue = lcd etc)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
"MaxCalError"=dword:8
"CalibrationData"="511,542 183,881 183,198 834,197 833,880"
*this one will maximise the touch sensitivity for those that want it:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\TouchPanel]
"PressureThreshold"=dword:0
Rn

Does anyone have a recommendation where you can buy a digitizer and lcd from?

Unresponsive touch screen :(

The top part of my phone does not respond to touch anymore... it is impossible to bring down the notification bar... and once in a while the whole screen goes unresponsive.. tried factory reset but still the same problem..

am having the same problem since 2 days back
after reading some of the posts i found that the Digitizer For HTC G6 Legend A6363 should be replaced with new one i ordered mine from ebay
ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5039.m570.l1313&_nkw=Digitizer+For+HTC+G6+Legend+A6363&_sacat=See-All-Categories
waiting for the item to be delivered

I've also got a touchscreen issue: the area of the notification power widgets is unresponsive... the rest of the screen works fine, but I don't know for how long :/

Do you have widgetlocker, by any chance ?
Or a lockscreen replacement which disable the notification bar during the "slide to unlock" state ?

I didn't know there was such thing as widgetlocker. I use CM7 latest nightly, never seen that thing.

I also facing this problem from last 2 weeks and i also think this is digitizer problem. If anyone else found the solution else changing the digitizer, then please post.
This is beautiful phone but htc added a poor quality things in it, due to which many users facing such problems.

Nah.. I dont think its because of widget locker.. its the digitizer..

well that's a shame, gotta buy a new digitizer on ebay after just over 1 year of use...

I know.. this sucks... Im planning to upgrade though.. Any of u guys have any suggestion?

Depends on your carrier if you want suggestions for an upgrade.
...but that would drive the post off-topic.
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App

I have the same problem. my screen doesnt work anymore because some water got in from the grill above the screen :S
should I try to take apart and dry off or shall I buy a new digitizer directly?

I think it may be a good idea to try disconnecting your digitizer and reconnect it as it just might be helping. I did it on my girlfriends legend and it has been working perfectly ever since. Maybe a good idea to at least try that before buying a new one. So i guess it could be in the connector to? At least this worked for me.

My touch screen dosent work at times. but after rebooting the phone the problem becomes solved. But the problem comes again after a week or so. Any suggestions guys??

I also have this problem, but if I wait a couple of minutes the touchscreen
becomes responsive again. Half of the screen works when it's unresponsive (right half of the notification bar and down). It's quite annoying but I cannot afford a new phone at the moment.
I'm also wondering if this might be temperature related, this problem reoccurred very often during the summer but stopped during the winter. But now (spring) it's back again.

My problem got worse and the phone became totally unresponsive, changed it, got a new phone.

exact same problem here, mine works when it feels like working, totally random, I simply can't understand why, I doubt it's the temperature... I think its in the device theres something wrong, I smack it numerous time and it works right after a big smack on the screen, or rub your whole hands on the screen, also, the angle you are holding the phone affects this problem, if none of these work, a phone restart always makes it work at the beginning. Oh boy did my phone took and taking much beating... oh well, I wish I could permanatly fixed the problem here, as I was thinking of handing the phone to my brother when I upgrade, I'm using CM 6.1.

I still recommend the same thing that i posted earlier here, her screen still works perfect.

I had the same problem few months ago. The problem is with the touch digitizer. I bought a digitizer on ebay and replaced it myself. After that my phone has been working fine. Its not that hard to replace it if you have a small knowledge about hardware.

I use to get that unresponsive screen issue only in the summertime, plus it gets worse if I add humidity (read: sweat). I just need to give it some time then to dry off/ cool down outside my pocket, and it's all fine again.
