Hello, last time i bought HTC Diamond. The problem is that i need align screen too often. Sometimes it can work properly very long time but sometimes i need align screen few times in 15 minutes. I don't have guarantee for this phone no more. Anybody know how to solve this issue? Thank you.
I have got the same problem; my htc diamond lost the calbration after few clicks. One member of this forum said that I have to change the digitizer
Have a look to my post.
no solution for this, buy new display, and chage it... You can find it on ebay and they will send you display and other tools which you need for replacing display...
Yup I had the same problem and got the screen replaced. A lot of people have reported this.
If your phone is under warranty you can get the screen replaced for free.

Is anyone having an idea on how to handle the following:
- Start menu is opening and closing by itself, and
- after a while the device stops to respond to any input on the touchscreen, while other functionalities seem to be OK;
- neither a soft nor a hard reset help. The screen remains 'frozen' until... again difficult to say why, it recovers and then ...all over again as above.
thanks,
Nic
I had the same problem after about 2 weeks of use. Turn off, soft-reset, hard-reset didn't help at all. Leaving the phone off for couple hours helped but the problem occurred again. Very frustrating. I have contacted the HTC support but still haven't received any responses from them. I think it's the hardware problem.
This is either a motherboard problem- it has occurred on some Trinity and Hermes devices and involves the screen controller chip; or it could be a problem with a screen protector (if fitted ) causing pressure around the edge of the screen
I had the same problem. Sent my device to HTC and they replaced the motherboard. When I got it back, I thought all is well. The drop down menu started again so I sent back to them with a nasty message. It is in repair now and hopefully they will fix it again, change the motherboard and the screen!!!
Hello Gilbert,
When you send to them, you had to pay the shipping fee?

Hi,
Oh yes. twice already and this pisses me off. When they sent the device to me the first time after claiming it was fixed, i did not have to pay for shipping costs. Let's hope they fix the bloody device soon or I am going to change brands.
Thanks,
Gilbert
I saw that problem on youtube

Man I really hope mine doesn't have that problem, I wonder what it is? Let us know what happens when you get it back, again.
Dam, wtf, while reading this thread my Trinity started to act exactly as described in the above posts!!! IT'S contagous! Seriously... I do have a screen protector... Hope it rights itself....
This is really terrible...

Hi there,
After having used my Trinity for 4 weeks I am experiencing same problems of erratic behavior, the start menu is activating itself and as a consequence device is slowing down gradualy up to the point where it freezes. I tried, soft/hard resets, removing battery etc. but nothing seemed to work. I have not installed the screen protector yet, so I can rule out straight away the effect of the screen protector. First I thought it could be jog dia lwheel which might be faulty, then it crosses my mind that it could be some virus. I donwloaded some applications off the internet. Before I found this thread I was considering of deleting the ROM and replacing it with another one, but it seem that the issue is more of hardware origin rather than software related. What happend after you got it from the repair? Is it working now? Cheers.
Hi there. I picked up an important call whilst in the shower. Very little water fell on my Kaiser but I belive that this caused the screen to stop working. Or I have dropped it as well.
Now I tried the business card remove dust particle trick. Didn't work. So I disabled cube / Touchflo. Then I reinstalled my ROM. Basically, I can't align the screen... I tried using the Remote Screen Alignment tool as well.
What's weird is that when you leave the phone for a couple of seconds, the battery conservation feature kicks, and when I touch the screen, the screen powers back up. So I know the screen works but just not properly.
Do I have to replace my screen (or just the TOUCH component of it)? I'm not too good with hardware but can I take it apart and fix the problems?
EDIT: For those facing similar problems, use the trial version of SOTI Pocket Controller to work on your Kaiser remotely.
I'm sure someone knows what to do... please help.
I had the exact same issues you were having, I had to send it in finally so I hope it is warrantied.

nope, its out of warranty. I'm thinking of using pocketpctechs or some other similar service. Any suggestions?
I would just order a new screen and replace it yourself.

Did they replace the entire screen or jus the TOUCH component? I heard that the TOUCH surface is way cheaper.
Also, I'm not too sure how to replace it myself.
when my tilt was in warranty they just gave a new device but on the call they said the screen was dead even though it displayed and had minimal responce.
I could be wrong but I don't think it would be easy (if even possible) to replace just the touch surface of the screen.
I have the well known problem with not working touch screen. I have read all this posts on different forums but haven't find the answer. If somebody tried already - please tell me replacement to new (lcd + touchscreen) will fix this problem?
I found plenty of screens on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/PALM-TREO-750-L...9|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:0|293:1|294:50
20-30 bucks.

I had a keyboard problem with one of my treo and I tried to cut up the phone to pieces. I pulled all of string cables one for the keyboard and one for the display. Cleaned all and then assembled it. It looks like workink well but the touch screnn doesn't answered. I cut up again and plug in the display cable again. It works now again.
Since then I dont cut up the phone

You know I already disassembled it and assembled it back for few times, but it still not working. Everything looks very nice and clear - like new but...
New screen doesn't solve the problem. I purchased a new touch screen (lcd + digitaizer) - it start working for few minutes, then stop again. I put off the battery an leave it like this for a month. Than I switch it on - it works (I successfully unlock it, passed f..... alignment screen). Now I use it, but touch screen doesn't work!
Please if anybody now what is the real problem, let me now.
I have the same problem. I upgraded my Treo 750 to a new ROM. It worked for a couple of hours and then it doesn't work.
I have read in a different forum that you have to turn down the screen brightness to less than 1/2 and it should work. I tried that and it still craps out.
I am also looking for a new digitizer from ebay. Would this work? Or do I have to purchase the screen and digitizer.
Would a new screen or digitizer work or will it crap out in a hour or so?
Besides getting a new phone what would be the next step for a solution?
I think it is a software problem. With WM5, 6 and 6.1 the touch screen didn't work but on the newish 6.5 version here it works just fine, all the time!
same
am currently having the same problem whaat is d solution pls is it rom WM6.5? who hav solve this problem?
The touch screen of my htc touch diamond is not working properly. It does not react to my touch. For me to get it to work I have to rub my fingers over it then it will be work again as normal. This only lasts for a few minutes after a while it becomes non responsive again. It is like it has to be warmed up to get it to work. This a problem when it comes to sending text messages. (the problem remains when I remove the protective screen).
Anyone has a answer to this?
remember the last program you installed and remove it , maybe it cause this problem
or try hardreset
Tried both methods still not working. I have ran out of ideas. Anyone else expierenced this problem?
Im having the same problem with my Raphael
To really know whether it is a hardware problem or software based problem, I recommend a hard reset and see whether the problem persists...
this is likely to be water damage on the screen. send it off for warranty see if they fix it. they fixed it for mine.
The thing is iv noticed the touch screen isn't thermal reactive like most touch screens. In other words the temprature of your finger is sensed on thermal screens, the HTC you can use anything solid that makes contact. Usefull if you have long nails.
So I'm guessing its probably hardware if it works after a while of 'rubbing' it, But like otacon said I would do a hard reset before jumping to that conclusion.
Same problem
Hi there....i saw that this is an old thread but did you manage to get it to work?
Cause i have a HTC Diamond that i changed both the displays on(LCD and the "point screen") and everything works fine on mine now,even tried to recieve phonecalls and it works excellent so as i said EVERYTHING works like a charm but the touch function.....it doesn´t react in any way while trying to use the touch function and i have tried soft reset,hard reset,new rom,checked all the internal connections around 4-5times and everything is ok but the damn touch function won´t work whatever i do with it.
I haven´t "glued" the 2 screens together,but they are sitting close to eachother so it should work anyways right?
Now from what i have seen on internet is that there are different versions of touch screens available on the market and i ordered the LCD from one company and the touch screen from another.
Could it be so that they aren´t compatible together or am i doing something wrong?
I´m still stuck at "Tap the screen to set up your Windows Mobile-based device" and can´t get any further after trying another rom.
Please help me out if it´s possible.
I have exactly the same issue you're experiencing, I've actual flashed the original rom, thinking that might put every settings in place to make it work, but no joy.
I don't be leave the concept of the weather condition equate to the performance of the device, as read in some of the forums. reason being I've had mine in very hot climate Country for over year whiles working on a project in Africa. In fact that was when I realised the the screen has become unresponsive.
I think this is a hardware issue.
It´s working perfect again
So since my last reply i ordered a new touch digitizer and lcd display and soldered them together carefully(first time i bought a lcd and digitizer from two different companies so they weren´t compatible with eachother and made the touch defective and second time i bought both digitizer and LCD screen from the same company and then it worked) and it has been working perfect since i last wrote my comment so i recomend you check the contacts/connections first on the phone because i had some minor issues with them when i assambled the phone again so i had to #wiggle# the contacts so i made sure they were connected.
We had a company here that sold lcd displays and digitizers out for a total of 30dollars with shipping so i had nothing to loose on it so that´s why i ordered a new set again and that made everything work as a charm since i replaced it.
Now i have searched online about the displays and the digitizers and i have found out that there are atlast three different versions of them so if you order a digitizer and a LCD make sure you atleast order both from the same company so it doesn´t happen the same to you what happened to me the first time.
Cheers and hope i helped you somewhat or else just ask on and i should try to answer.
Hi Guys
I've been having some serious problems with the screen on my X1, most of the time now the screen doesn't respond to me tapping it, alignment is a waste of time.I'm wondering is there something I can do to fix it or will it simply be a matter of returning it. I'm in my last few months of a 18month contract and based on my recent experiences I doubt I will be getting another x1 (or even x2)
Thanks
Simon.
Exactly whats happened to mine! Its my 3rd X1 now and O2 cant (wont) fix it. Its a terrible phone. I cant use it now and you know what, I dont care, I would rather have a Nokia 6310.
Ive had every problem going and Im careful with my phones. First one the screen died when opening, second one no one can hear me and now this. I have also had the usual cracks issue on all 3 phones. Even when the phone works the reception terrible and it hangs all the time. Never a sony Xanything again.
Alignment problems and touch screen problem
I just updated my X1 last week ( 02/17/2010, my phone it's 1 year old with no problem at all, before this ) and everything was OK. Then on sunday the screen wasn't aligned, and I started to aligned almost every hour. Then I realized that after sliding the keyboard, the touch screen was death (not black, but doesn't work the touch function) for about 40 seconds, and after that it works again ( opened and Landscape). I also need to align the screen very often.
Before this happend, I never aligned the screen, only when I updated the X1. Also, on last friday ( before the screen problem ) I installed the Youtube aplication for the X1, and gave me problems because it doesn't have a Landscape screen, and the X1 crashed when I slide it, then I had to reboot it.
After this problem I started to have problems with my X1 ( alignments and death touch screen with keyboard opened )
Does some body have an idea to solve the problem?
Im sure this has to do with software or advanced settings like HKEY config.
Thanks in advance.
i have the same problem
but now, the problem is horrible
the alignement doesn t accept
when i touch the down list (call, contact etc...) the xperia open the Start bar
arggg

and it returns to normal after a while
what could cause this problem
i flashed many roms, with same result
It's not something either of you installed, but your hardware - either your digitizers are on the way out or your flex.
its hardware
yes, i can say its hardware. I have repaired many of them now.
Most of the time when its black/no touch screen response its the flex cable.
somehow the cable damages very easy when opening/closing it.

Have try this?
1. Use a registry editor
2. Navigate to or search for:
HKLM/Drivers/TouchPanel/PressureThreshold
and
HKLM/Software/OEM/TFLOSettings/FingerPressure
(eg search on "pressure" and you'll find both)
3. Edit the values to any VERY VERY high value such as 999999999 (nine 9s)
*** CAUTION: do NOT change either of these fields to anything less than about 2000
because if you go low enough you will make your touchscreen unresponsive,
at which point it's tricky to change it back (learned the hard way)
Do I welcome aboard?
I have the same problem now and before I read this thread, I formatted my X1 cos I thought that problem was caused by software. Now I am sure it's about hardware. Have to open it soon
are you sure it's an hardware issue?
for me it started today after hard reset...too bad!
Well screen problems in Xperia are mostly caused due to the loose flex cable. Mine had the same problem. At times the screen would work and sometime the screen would not appear. But if you want to open your X1 and have a go at it yourself then do so.
I managed to fix my flex cable without causing any damage *phew*
If you have nothing to loose then give it a try and see if you get lucky.
