touch input not working - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I have just installed L26_Kaiser_Diamond_V8_lght and now the screen will not accept input.
It goes to the initial windows screen where it asks to tap the screen to setup but it will not accept any tap input.
Other people have flashed the rom succesfully.
I have flashed many roms and have had no problems so I am thinking it has nothing to do with the rom but maybe something else.
I took out both the sim and the memory card. Reinstalled the battery and reflashed to a different rom and still same problems.
I bought the tilt unlocked and using it in Canada right now so I cannot send it back for warranty.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Consider this a friendly warning. You are violating the "laws of the land." Search for your answer. Read the Wikis and Stickies! There is a Camera Fix Thread. Post your question in relevant thread.
I have over 1000 posts and I've created 0 threads. Because I post my questions in relevant threads.
Anyhow, I know in the ROM thread Leo states something in the First Post and Changing the SPL to fix Screen Freezes.

WM 6 (Orwell) - Wizard turns itself on every 1-5 minutes

Somebody told me that I shouldn't ask in the WM 6 Thread - ok, here's a dedicated one. Hope that's ok.
My Wizard bothers me - it turns itself on (while it's turned of) every 1 - 5 minutes when the memory card is inserted. Is it just me or does anyone of you have the same problem (and a solution??).
I'm running Orwells1984 on a G3.
Sry for this new account but i've lost the pwd for my old one.
that question has been asked and addressed in the same thread "someone" told you not to post in.
whats going on lately with all simple questions. its like more than usual now.
please people, read and search before you ask questions that have been answered a million times.
ok, thanks for your answer but i'm a bit confused ... someone tells me 'dont ask here' (while i obviously was in the correct thread) ... another one tells me that the answer already exists in the thread where i placed the question ... hey, i don't want to post spam threads and i've already used the search function (but i wasn't able to find something regarding my issue). but, guys - it's better to give a hint (thx hiimcliff) than giving senseless answers (someone).

i'm not flamming. don't get me wrong. its just better to ask that quesiton in the same thread than to spam the board with the same type of threads.
i think this subsection needs a mod though. honestly.
hey hiimcliff ... you're totally right (and i tried to explain that in my previous answer). ppl should turn on their brain before opening threads AND they should use the search function. absolutely d'accord. when you look into the wm6 rom for wizard thread, you'll see that i posted this question initially there - until someone told me that this is the wrong place ... that's the thing that made me confused .
but now ... still looking for the right answer regarding my prob ...
blue skies,
cozz
From what I've read, this is a know issue with the 1984 rom. I don't recall anyone coming up with a fix for it. Most just use one of the PDAviet roms - version 4 seems to do the trick.
I'm seeing the same behavior on pdaviet3. I think it may be related to Windows Live sync and/or the Windows Live today screen item but I'm not quite sure yet.

Uncheck Settings->System->Backlight->BatteryPower->Turn off backlight if device isnt used for ... min
And check Settings->System->Power->advanced->Turn off device if not used for ... min (In battery section)
After that Wizard will not turn on constantly.
btw Its not just WM6 issue, i had that on all AKU 3.x.
Changing the settings solved the problem. Thanks vasp205! Another solution is to lock the device.

Changing Home Screen with Stock Tilt ROM

Greets,
I am running a tilt with stock AT&T roms, but with the bloatware avoided through the timely soft reset.
I am wondering ... can I replace the home screen if I don't flash to a cooked ROM? If so, how?
Thanks!
if by "home" you mean "today" screen, then yes. simply by adding any today screen plugin.
a few things for you to search for:
start|settings|personal|today|items
HTC Home
SPB plus
HTC Homeplug
there's a good start for you
Tried ... Failed ... Help?
Greets,
I attempted to install HTC Home on my stock AT&T Tilt. It did install (confirmed by the fact that when I saw no evidence of it running, I tried to reinstall, and it told me it was already installed).
This still leaves me with my same old screen (except now, the orientation icon changed to a battery with a question mark on it).
Once installed on a stock AT&T Tilt, how do I run HTC Home to replace my main screen?
Thanks!
Changing the Today Screen options is explained in the book that came with your phone called a manual.
jgermuga - Interesting (not to be confused with helpful) response.
Had the presence of mind to check to see if your prior posts were also obnoxious ... not surprisingly, many are. Needless to say, I will not be responding further to anything you might care to characteristically come back with.
Great having you here - you clearly bring a lot to the table.
Start -> Settings -> Today Screen
I guess it may be possible that jgermuga was a bit snide but I can't really blame him/her.
Check your manual, do a search, or try to make your question more understandable.
If you want to change your Today screen, try this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/articles/softwaretips/personalize.mspx
It may be one of the most basic things to do on the PDA. How did you find us anyway?????
No good ...
I respectfully disagree! I do my fair share of answering questions on forums and the usenet, as well as those that come to me via email. I have NEVER been insulting or snide with people who ask questions. If they ask, they are hoping to get an answer, and very little is as disheartenening as learning that someone has posted a reply, only to see that it wasn't a (useful) reply at all.
One can spend their brain cycles coming back with a clever snide statement which does not help at all (and feel morally superior for the wit) or one can be helpful and answer the question. Since this is a forum, and people search for responses, the snide answer only provides a dead end for everyone who may seek help in the future.
So to those who actually answered the question, thank you VERY much.
In my case here, the provided answers did not work, but perhaps I asked the wrong question. I will need to look into this further.
As much time as you have wasted writing long and pointless replies, you could've read your manual and had your question answered already. Trust me - sit down with your phone and your manual and a beer or two and go through every page. I have done that with every phone I have owned and I learned a LOT of interesting little details that I wouldn't have known otherwise.

I agree. I've been using a PocketPC for over 5 years, and I still take the time to read over every manual. I always find a cool function for a button that I didn't know about, or something new about the OS that was changed, etc.

Ew! Dutty V4 Call Buttons STUCK glowing!! - Speakerphone, Notes, Mute, Contacts!

Whenever I call someone now these buttons are stuck glowing (as though they are in the process of being pressed)
It's really ugly/annoying. When you press them there is no longer an animation, it just glows constantly - although they still work.
Full functionality while in horizontal mode though. Weird.
Anyone help? I searched the forums first...couldn't find anything...Thanks!
ANYONE? f
Any reason why you're bumping this thread and not asking in Dutty's thread?
Many others have installed Dutty's ROMs, so I'm sure that if you were to ask there, you're likely to get a faster response or you could actually READ that thread, the answers may alread be there.

HELLLPPP!!!!

Hey i have no idea what happened but i tried putting the touch it on to My phone after the hardspl was put in but now it is not even starting up it is only staying at the CanonYang start up screen can you help me or did i brick it
try booting your phone into the boot loader and then reflash another or the same rom to it. My kaiser did the exact same thing to me using the newly released "Official Tilt Rom" off of the HTC website. I lost my information but at least I was able to put on a different rom. Hopefully this helps.
How???
HOw do i do that because the phone is only starting up to the like "welcome screen" of Canon Yang?
Look in the xda wiki to find your phone or variant. On the kaiser you do a soft reset using the stylus and hold down the camera button until you see the 3 colored lines. Other phones are different so don't forget about checking that wiki. I never knew what it was until a while ago when someone explained it all to me and then showed me. There should be a link on top of your page or on the side that says XDA-Wiki. They even have pictures of your phone if you do not know what it is since companies use the same phone and release it with thier own name. Hence the ATT Tile is a variant of the HTC Kaiser. I hope this helps.

I agree. All the Herald forums have this same new thread. Isn't one enough?
Davenumber, you can edit your preferences under the quicklinks drop down menu on top of your page. Edit your profile and tell it to send you an E-mail as soon as someone responds to your thread. This will allow you to get notified as soon as someone responds and you will not have to post in multiple forums. Best of luck. Let me know what happens.
Yeah but the thing is
The problem is the phone wont even start up it stays on the Canon Yang screen (like when you restart or start up the phone). so yeah i am kinda thinking it is bricked
unbrick it with the RUU.
If you're coming up to a canonyang screen, it would appear that hardspl worked ... so You should be able to flash any rom you want from bootloader.

Quick Noob questions, please help~

Hi
First of all, I am a complete newbie and needs directions from experienced.
Bought AT&T Tilt on eBay and this is my very 1st smart phone of any sort.
It came with Schaps 4.30 Rom.
I have 3 questions.
1. Where do I start as far as cooked Rom is concerned ?
I've started reading Kaiser and AT&T specific wiki but not sure if I should
try and upgrade. I see there are other variants for WM6 and WM6.1 but I
don't even know how bad is the stock one.
Is there comparision/bench marks for different Roms ?
Btw, I won't be using any internet-related program for next 6 months.
Assuming I stick to Schaps 4.3 Rom for while, I have 2 issues.
2. Whenever I go to Setting->System->Screen->Align, the phone freezes
and only way out of it is to soft reset.
All buttons don't work and the screen doesn't respond to tabbing.
What is wrong ?
4. Alarm clock. I have been using my old mobile phone to wake me up every
morning. It's loud and continuous until I press stop or snoop in which case
it goes off again in 5 mins or so.
However, the one in Setting/Clock in Kaiser is no way near annoying.
Its volume is very low and all the alarm sounds that I can choose are too
friendly to wake me up.
Is there a better alarm program out there ?
Any advice/tip appreciated.
Thanks.
Some of your problems sound like the could be related to YOUR device specifially. Look up all the "newbie" guides to flashing in the search section. (top right...lower...lower..there it is.) Try changing your rom. I use mostly Alex's and dutty's stuff. They're dummy proof.
well it all depends if u want to flash ur phone to another rom..no one else is gonna make that decision for u...just make sure if u do read all the wikis...ALL of them and make sure u have a good understand of it...make sure u read other wikis relating to it as well...
the more you read and understand the less you make problems for yourself to dig out of
I see the thread is closed. I was in the process of replying when it must have been closed. I think you might have some hardware problems from what you describe. I would NOT flash a new ROM until you try to pin down the cause of the lack of screen response and buttons not working. These two problems can be associated with a loose d-pad connector or ribbon connector.
This depends on which buttons are not responding.
If you flash with a broken digitizer then you will face problems when you come to thw automatic alignment screen following the flash. To flash would be a gamble. It could solve your problems BUT it could mean you cannot get past the alignment settings screen.
