HTC TyTN (Kaiser) screen problem - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi
I've just replaced the screen in my HTC TyTN with a ginue spare screen from HTC, but after installing the picture on the screen are moved a lot downwards and also to the left. I can't find any topics here how to solve this type of problem, so im asking now if any one knows if this can be fixed. The space in the screen where the picture should be are filled with white, if this can help how to solve it.
I will be very thankfull if any one knows how to solve this problem
/Mads

did you try screen alignment?
Go to start>settings>system>screen align.
cheers.

Yes, i did, but it didn't work at all, but thanks for the reply

Is it like that 100% of the time or just in Windows?

It is all the time, from when i turn it on and when im in windows.

Can you use it enough to back it up and try a reset? I doubt that would help though.

yeah, i can back it up. i will try it now and let you know how it goes
EDIT: Just found out that the bottons on the screen part and D-pad doesn't work. I've found some solutions in here, but I still can't get them to work. Does anybody know how to reset the phone without using the front bottons

PDA2k Dead Touchscreen

Hello folks: sad day...
My PDA2k's screen started to not respond to touch all of a sudden. I tried a soft reset, and then a hard reset. This does not fix it. Of course, now I am stuck at the Windows Mobile start screen (the one that says "tap your screen to set up your Pocket PC"), and of course I cannot make it any further than that.
Any help you can think of? I am trying to get a hold of imate tech support, but the prospect of having to send it away for repair is really frightening.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Fernando
i have the exact same problem now..
please help??????
did u manage to fix it?
Pockets of air under the screen protector and/or mis alignment of the screen protector can sometimes cause a touch screen to stop responding.
So if u have one applied, try taking it off to see if that fixes the problem.
tried that..not the case..still isnt working
Hay I have same problems litle diferents bat same.
Das anybody have idea vats happened. In my BA, half display doesn’t work (left) right side work.
Incense I perform hard reset system hold in tach scrin and cursor in right side work perfectly in left side work only
if I put pensile 5-6 sec. and again etc.System is that point hold and doesn’t work butscrin.
Thanks for your tips. My touch screen went dead on my BA over christmas. I was about to junk it until I peeled off the protector skin as suggested. Now it is working. Thanks mate
I got this problem yesteday, so i desided to try disassemble, my blue angel to check how deficult it would be to change the touch panel before i cheked the price on these panels. It showed to be a little hard to take it of, so i just assembled the "angel" agian, and miracules the touch now works fine, and I only adjusted the cable a little, but maybe this made the connection better. But on the hole I'm glad that I put it together agian before I bought a new panel.
Unfortunately I don't know exactly what did the trick. But it may be worthwhile to disassemble and try to make the cables sit a little better, and then just wish for the best outcome, of course if you are not sure how to disassemble divices like these do not do it, as it can make more damage to your blue angel, so even a professional technican can't save it.
suggestion
i had this problem but if you already back up your system in a sgt file on your pc then you can connect your BA with activesync and restore your system i don't know if you have backup file

Touch screen not responding after hard reset..hardware problem?

I have searched for solutions for the past 2 days but cant find one, if i missed it or this post is redundant , i apologize in advance.
Now my tilt is driving me crazy. It started last week when The touch screen wasnt working, but i fixed it by doing a couple of soft resets. then all the sudden, everytime i slide my keyboard out, the touch screen would stop responding. this went on for a day, then yesterday, when i tired to use the keyboard, the screen went blank, like the light died or something. but when i put it back on portrait, the screen would light up again.
A few moments later, the touch was responding, tried to use the keypad then the screen went blank..tried soft resets about 5 times and uninstalled all recent added programs (skyfire) ..finally the screen was working but the touch still wasnt working.
So this morning, i had the bright idea to do a hard reset....dumbest idea ever cos now its stuck at the screen where i have to "tap the screen to set up your wm device" and guess what..the touch screen isnt responding
plz i really need help with this. all so , i have a broken tilt.., well lcd screen is cracked...can i try to dismantle both tilts and replace the screens?
Ok, i used Code Factory's Remote screen alignment to bypass the alignment, but if i cant use the touch screen or the keyboard, the phone is pretty much useless for sending any information or making calls..is there a way to fix this?
I have had this same issue with my tilt. I could use the scroller on the left side of the unit to navigate but no touch screen. Both times that this has happened to me I removed the screen protector that I had on and restored a backup that I had on my storage card (I run a backup weekly). This has always fixed my issue. You could try another hard reset, not sure if that will help but do you get any lights on the keyboard when you slide it open? Is your tilt less than a year old because there is a manufacturer's warranty too.
Jim
when i slide the keyboard, i do get lights on the keyboard but not on the screen...it just goes dead..but when i slide it back in, the screen comes to life.
I cant do another hard reset cos i have to input the "1,2,3,4" code.
Also , the phone just got out of the 1yr warranty this month...awesome
I want to buy a replacement screen with a new digitizer but i need to be sure that is the problem.. ive searched for this keyboard problem but still have no answers
Now I'm having the same issue, touch not responding. I first noticed it about two days ago, when I slide the keyboard out, I could type just fine, but when I went to send the message the touch screen wouldnt work, so I'd close the keyboard and it would work. well yesterday it stopped working all together, so i used my d-pad and did a sprite restore and it started working again. But then On my way home i hit the lock button, and it stopped working after that, and I couldn't get it unlocked. I used the inner soft key to hit the first part of unlock, but then I couldnt ever figure which button to hit to get the on screen part of the unlock. So I had no choice but to do a hard reset, and just like highoct now I'm stuck on the stylus setup , and the touch still doesnt respond. does anybody esle have any suggestions ? Thanks in advance.
You can use the Code Factory's Remote screen alignment to bypass the alignment.
If the touch screen is the only problem, you can do one of two things if you are no longer under warranty;
1. Fix it yourself. You will have to buy a new Lcd screen with new digitizer at ebay and use this site http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/razbor_htc_kaiser/ to open up your tilt and replace it
2. Send it to a repair shop, I had two tilts and sent the one with the broken screen to www.missionrepair.com got it back in a within a week, $89.00 plus shipping

I still have the same tilt with the original problem..havent found a solution yet
Oh yeah, I did manage to do a hard reset again, but now the screen is just white. I can hear the sound of it booting up but it still has a white screen. I tired going to the Bootloader screen ( Camera and power at the same time)...still have the white screen. I believe its a hardware problem but i don't know what it is...any ideas?
Ok now I've done a hard flash, using the same HTC kaiser rom 6.1 and it fixes the problem for a little bit, until the first time I slide out the keyboard , then the screen stops working again, any suggestions ?
iPhone 3G Screen Repair...finally an affordable answer
If you are reading this, you are most likely in the same dilemma I was in. I dropped my phone and picked it up only to find out that the glass screen was cracked. I took my broken phone to apple and found out it would cost me $199. I then was told about iPhone 3G Screen Repair. They offered the iPhone 3G glass screen repair for only 69.99. They repaired my phone the same day they received it. I was very happy with the repair!

I know this thread is a bit old but was searching d forum for possible solutions cos yesterday i developed the same exact problem on my kaiser for no apparent reason!..flashing it hasnt helped and now im stuck on the wm setup screen..when u say u still have the same tilt with the original problem do you mean that the repair was unsuccessful? have you tried reparing it yourself? Thanks
I just started to have the same problem, it started out with the touch not responding (which a few soft resets fixed) and now the whole screen doesn't function unless i slid out the keyboard or if i jiggle it around and open it a couple of time i can usually find a spot that allows the screen to function with the keyboard closed. If i leave it in this position for about an hour the touch starts responding again, wtf. This is very inconvenient because as soon as you move the screen even just a little it will take me like half an hour to find the position which allows the phone to function.

same thing happened to me 3 days ago. touchscreen has just stopped responding.
it still worked when i slided my keyboard out, but only when it was out. then i realized it won't work at all (!) after soft reset. however, i could make it work again like that when i did the soft reset with the keyboard out. weird.
i tried searching, and decided to make a hard reset, flash a new rom, etc, etc., but no more touchscreen. at all. the device doesn't feel any touch in any case. nothing. i bypassed the beggining tap here with the storage card trick. (i've read it somewhere on the forum).
now i can only use my kaiser with the hw buttons, the keyboard, and that's it. no touch. really weird. please if anyone has any updates, solutions, anything, post. sniff sniff
mine doesn't have anything on the screen unless i slide it out, if i have it closed anymore, it just doesn't work at all.
try this:
ive just replaced my barely functioning lcd by myself, after living with it sometimes registered the stylus jumping around when i used the stylus. but before you change your lcd, here is a couple of tips for you guys:
1) try sliding out the keyboard. hold one finger in the middle of the keyboard and another on the back side of the phone, and squeeze hard, but careful. it might be that the flat cable between the screen part and the main part has loosened a bit from its socket, this could help it back in.
2) try sqeezing the hang up button hard. this might help the lcd-cable correctly back in its socket if it is loose.
im saying that this MIGHT help, if youre lucky. most likely you have to open the phone and squeeze the connectors back in yourself, or actually change the entire lcd. anyways, let me know what works for you!!

well, i tried both tips, but they didn't work. i'd like to say a big thanks anyway!
then i grabbed the kaiser service manual and took my device apart into pieces. i reconnected pretty much all the cables and stuff, but still no touchy. any further ideas?
you should try replacing the screen. im happy to say that this screen from this seller on eBay worked for me: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250539984183

Screen losing alignment

I have a Touch Diamond and this is getting really annoying.
The screen is losing alignment all the time. I align it and it works okay... for a couple of minutes. Then the center of alignment goes either way up or way down. Sometimes only for a couple of seconds and sometimes for couple of hours. Hard-resetting it doesn't help, either.
It's happening on every single ROM I try.
And since I'm currently using win 6.5, the only way to get to screen alignment is through the start menu, so if the center of alignment goes up (I think it's up), I have to just wait until it's back to normal as I can't press the Start button.
It's annoying as hell... I have to be lucky to be able to write a message or type in a number... or do anything else actually.
Help? Pretty please?

No help for that problem, all what you can is sending phone i service , if you have warranty!
Before that, you can try with stock rom, and stock spl, and using mtty tool, use button search to find threads about that!
Good luck...
I have emailed support center about this issue. All they could come up is the usual stuff - try hard resetting etc...
Of course, nothing helped.
Seems like I'll have to get it repaired. However, my warranty is out.
Has anyone had problems like this? I mean, how much could it cost (I hope they won't have to change the screen itself)?
Hello, zdravo,
i think they'll have to change display, cause same thing was at me ...
You can find cheap display and all tools with it for changing display and instructions how to do that with yourself, i'm not sure how much, look at ebay, if i remember not more than 40$
Good luck, sretno

WSOD! Help!!

My tilt is acting very nasty lately. Over the past few weeks, I noticed that when I turned on the display, occasionally I would get something that looked like the static that you see on TV, but with colors. I would just turn off the screen, and turn it back on to clear it.
Now it's gotten worst! 98% of the time, it intermitantly gives me a blank solid white screen when I turn it on. Occasionally I can just turn to screen off, and on to reset it.
I'm running OEM WM6.1, and I've tried to reinstall the OS, but it didn't help. My phone has taken a beating, and the top corner has had a small crack in it over the past 2 months, but it didn't effect the touch screen, or picture. I also took off the cover to make sure the cables were all snug, and it didn't help.
Any suggestions?
Something got corrupted. If you search WIKI, it's call the 3 color screen stuck .. and you're better off posting at thread below. I hope someone can give you help (if you follow those steps and still no good)
As rule of thumb, do a lot of reading first
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423486
On a second thought, it might be the LCD itself broken ..
Oh, believe me.. I'm not one to turn to the forums without doing research myself! All the research I was coming up with seemed to point to a slightly different WSOD though. I think you are right about the screen being broken. I've reinstalled the software, and it acts up even when booting up!
Unfortunately, I'm not impressed with ANYTHING on the market to date! If I'm unable to fix this, I'll just go back to a RAZR until the next gen WM7 phones come out. (With a tilt screen of course!!)
Oh, and even though the screen goes white, it's not stuck, as it fully boots up; I can hear sounds, and even activate the touch screen.
Also, I forgot to mention.. the first problem I started experiencing was that my tilt would go back from landscape mode! It was like the video board was crapping out. I could even see a slight flicker in the display from the refresh rate.
hi i think you may need a new Need a new flex cable ribbon as i had the same problem once
Thanks Tayzaa, I think you could be on to something. I'll open it up and take another look!
Hi!
is this problem solved?
WSOD is bug of Hermes. I would know if kaiser have the same WSOD-bug with D-pad?

Screen alignment problem

Hi all,
I recently bought a used X1, wich already had a custom OS (Christian's) installed.
It's an excellent device, though there is one thing that really pisses me off.
The screen alignment is off all the time. No matter how often i re-align, after a short while it always is a few milimeters of, especially on the top half of the screen. So, for example if i want to press a button, i have to press above or under it, else it doesn't work.
I already tried cleaning the edges of the screen, even with pressurized air. Didn't help though.
Is there any solution for this or have i just been ripped off by the seller of this device?
Btw, excuse my english .
Can anyone help me please?
I mean, i really love this phone. But the touchscreen issue makes it kinda useless to me.
Is there any fix for it or is it just the way it is untill i replace the screen?
Hard reset. Or re install the ROM
Make sure to take your time while aligning your device, get some very precise points in or it will throw it all off. If all else fails you can try re-installing, but that probably isn't the problem if realigning fails. Possibly a screen issue?
I hard-resetted (?) and reinstalled the os, didn't work though.
When i re-allign it's all ok, but if i go to 'notes' then, and draw a little, it quickly becomes mis-alligned again.
The line is sometimes drawn more then a centimeter below the stylus :S .
I assume this is not a software problem, perhaps the screen is broken?
Anyway, i'm selling it back to the previous owner...
when i had a problem similar to this it was my ribbon cable that had worn away with sliding the keyboard in and out.
