Umm I've never had the calibrate screen come up on the Topaz since the day I bought it. Well accept for NRGZ28s ROMs. It should be pre-calibrated. Especially if your on the stock rom.
As far as windows 7 there were problems with earlier RC. What versions is yours? You should be able to flash once the Official Win7 is out.

settings > screen?

i've flashed it on a other pc,,but still no succes!
the calibratation screen doesn't come up!
even tried a different hardspl,,still no succes!
somebody know a rom whif screen calibration at the start up??

Mebe your digitizer isn't right. Does it work? It just registers wrong? I'm really not clear on any of those.
NRGZ28s ROMs used to have the calibration. Mebe UDKs also. I know for a fact that Shadowlines has the calibrotor after start up. Go to Settings(in Manila)>All Settings>System>Screen It should be there. Or somewhere, I don't have my phone on me.

You've not been too clear on why it's so important to calibrate on the install process. Is your screen so mis-aligned that you can't use it? If you are able to use it then you can get to the screen calibration from settings - all settings - system - screen - alignment
Hope this helps

Make sure you've downloaded the latest Windows Mobile Device Centre for Windows 7. It fixes connectivity issues with the Topaz.

I'm also having the problem of not being able to calibrate the screen.
My digitizer broke and I have replaced it. Now it works, but it's so misaligned that I can't use the touchscreen to navigate. Therefore I need to flash a ROM that has the screen calibration to run upon boot, but I can't find a such ROM. Have tried the latest Shadowline, Energy, Nataly, official etc.
Does anyone know of a ROM with screen calibration upon boot? New or old doesn't matter, just need to calibrate the screen...

You put flex in not proper way in the socket, try flip flex upside down

Press VolUp+VolDown together and then tap on the screen.
Now you can calibrate your Screen.

I also had this problem after replacing the screen on my Trophy, but then I thought of cleaning the connector.
My new screen now looks great, and works perfectly.

thanks hansdampft, Vol up + vol down works perfectly, i can use my phone again!

Lost Button & Keyboard Functionality

Started experiencing a strange issue with my tilt today..
When I soft reset it loads the Today screen, and then attempts to search for the contact 'wszx' (these keys are located next to each other). After this I can navigate the phone just fine using the touch screen, but the only buttons that work are the directional and center buttons located on the front of the phone, and the arrow keys on the keyboard. I cannot type at all using the keyboard, and pressing any of the other buttons does nothing (except the directional/center/Power). I also cannot Hard reset because the two soft-keys do absolutely nothing. I've hard reset in the past but it no longer works.
So am I SOL? I think I've tried everything.. and now I have a custom rom, etc on the phone and I have no way of getting it back to factory rom without the ability to hard reset.
Thanks for any help.

Sounds like a hardware issue or simply a bad flash. Have you attempted to reflash the rom? Which rom are you using?
Well...
It wasn't working again this morning, but suddenly - out of nowhere - began to work properly. I'm stumped. If I ever figure out the exact issue I'll be sure to post back.
Thanks
Greetings,
I have same problem on my tytn...
Sometimes it suddenly starts working fine, but shortly it breaks again.
I have tried hard-reseting while it was working, but didnt help.
I think the problem appeared after charging my phone with a motorola v3 charger, so maybe it damaged my phone with over-voltage or something...
Anyway, if someone can suggest something i would be very grateful!
Hi I have exactly the same symptoms with my HTC Tytn II...when you power it on it starts typing letters (in my case CEDF). If the recording button is active it will start recording too. This happened suddenly and I haven't used any other charging apart from the usb and wall socket charger supplied with it.
All buttons (except front center key) and keyboard do not work. Any suggestions would be appreciated very much. This phone is only 8 months old.
Hi,
my Kaiser with dutty's WM6.1WWE ROM did the same this morning Yes I disabled the button 6 and stopped the voice recordings but all the hardware keys but few in the center of the keyboard are not responding. So I cant make or receive calls without taking the stylus out and touching the screen soft buttons andd that's pin in the ... while I am driving. I am using this ROM for almost a year now and I am extremely hapy (up to now) with its performance. When it all happened there were no activities on the phone - I woke up from a SMS notification (Yes I did receive an SMS from my bank) followed by repeting Voice Recordings. Any help will be highly appresiated! Thanks in advance!
keyboard problem
I am experiencing a similar problem with my stock tilt my keyboard does work however none of the text appears on the screen. I have tried hard reset and everything else I could think of, short of a clear storage reload. I would appreciate any help or suggestions from some of you more experienced users.
Bisonwill
anyone ever figure this problem out? im having the same thing happen now.
Same here
I've had it for a couple of weeks now.
I'm running WM6.1 from HTC (rom ver.3.29.422.1 from 2009-01-12) so nothing fancy here.
I even ordered and replaced the D-Pad and I replaced the keyboard (just the sticky part though). I totaly dismantled the phone and didn't find any issues with the cables.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated
Join the club!
This is crazy. My problem is exactly the same. I re-romed to the latest phoenix and it did not change a thing.
Help!
help....
any body here found a solution for the keypad/keyboard yet??? i have the same problem as you guys... any idea, thanks so much...
i have the same problem And there is something else. My Kaiser wakes up every 2 minutes - it's killing the battery. It works only for 6 hours now
Help
bump!!!
No more people with this issue or any solutions?
Pls! Help
ive joined the gang!
I decided to flash my cooked rom ive been working on.
i hadnt changed much in the kitchen and i think the flash has went badly.
it starts booting windows and where it should state "calibrate screen" it goes white and hangs there, buttons seem to respond by lighting up when pressed.
Now when i try to get it into bootloader or even hard reset it just doesnt work.
it just restarts the phone.
before this happened the backspace key hasnt been working for ages.
anybody got any ideas??
(lucky for me i have a backup kaiser!)
I'm having the same problem. Automatic wakeup, applications starting automatically, can't use keyboard, have to to use screen to use phone etc. I've hardreset using the clear storage method, reflashed a couple of times, but nothing helped. So here I am joining the club
If it's not a hardware issue, then try to flash another radio, many of the custom ROMs here doesn't include a radio, so if it's caused by a wrong radio, flash a new ROM without a radio doesn't help.
Check the Sticky for 'how to' if not aware.
PS: Check here for something need to know..
The question is.... how do I flash the device if I cant get it to go to boot loader and the OS wont boot properly !?
I think its an official Brick!
the really odd thing I've discovered is sometimes the OS leaves the loading screen on, and when it does if I press the FN and folder key, I get explorer up but its not responding... I haven't tried inserting a memory card yet to see if I can access that.

Try this:
1. Take out the battery from the phone.
2. Take out SIM card and SD card.
3. Press in and hold the CAMERA button.
4. Plugin to your computer using the USB cable, while keep holding press in the CAMERA button.
See does it enter the BOOTLOADER mode.
Once entered the BOOTLOADER mode, you can flash a new radio or rom right from there, in your regular way of running KaiserCustomRUU.exe.(Since you already have a HardSPL flashed on, otherwise a HardSPL is needed to flash first.)
Good luck.
Edit: If the power button and the camera button is still working, you can use the regular way of entering BOOTLOADER mode, and flash from bootloader mode or flash from SD card.

To enter in bootloader mode:
Simply Switch off your phone. Press and hold camera button and also press and hold the power button..You can remove ur finger from power button when phone is switched on but keep holding camera button until u come to bootloader …Now attach the usb to ur computer and do the flashing you normally do.

Thx for your suggestion:
I tried removing battery as sim and sd were already removed due to previous attempts in fixing!
so:
i removed battery (did not put back in), plugged in while holding camera
got nothing, so held power button at same time, the green light came on, then went off, and came back on again. but no bootloader.
i tried same procedure with battery in, and all i get is the OS loading up, no bootloader no matter how long i hold the buttons.
is there any other alternative method to get into bootloader (possibly involving other button presses)?
or any other ideas.
Really want to fix this as it was my "experimental" phone for cooking roms with.
Thanks again.
Suspect you have some hardware issue with the camera button. Can you ever take a photo with it?
Edit: Did you read through every post onthis thread:
MTTY (How to fix a bad ROM flash!)
If you tried that and still no luck, you can post your questions there. There are masters will keep an eye on that thread. And generally they only have time to look into their 'subscribed' threads, chances are they will not look into here.
Edit: Maybe the procedure I told is wrong, since I call from memory, check this:
dwny said:
If you have a bad flash....that's no reason to worry.
I haven't had to use MTTY to recover.
In most cases, if there's no issues with the Rom itself...you can pop out the battery and re-flash the same ROM from BootLoader Mode. This will also work if for some reason your computer crashes or loses power & restart during the FLASH.
If the Rom has issues.....the flash will not complete and the device will be stuck in BootLoader Mode. At this point,you must FLASH a FACTORY ROM!!
Pop the battery off 1st, power up the device, device will power up in BootLoader Mode, connect to pc & FLASH your devices FACTORY ROM. This will restore your device back to it's original out the box settings.
The above only works if the device has been put through the Hard SPL or SuperCID process.
I personally have never tried to flash a cooked ROM without unlocking any of my devices. From what I've read what others have experienced...the flash would just fail and they're stuck in BootLoader Mode.
Myself ... I've experienced bad flashes, bad cooked roms that I've cooked, lost power to a pc & had my pc crash during a flash. Listed above is how I've recovered. There is life after Bootloader Mode.
The only time you have to worry is if your device does not power up at all
As a public chef...it's your responsibility to set the parameters of your ROM! Meaning, Radio, HardSPL, program conflicts, etc.
You are not ultimately responsible if someone bricks their phone but if they pushed the issue, you could be hit with some form of liabilty because you failed on providing a simple Disclaimer that sets the expectation.
I hope I've been helpful.....

Edit again:
And try like:
Plug in USB first, and thenn press & hold Camera, Power button etc.
I remember once I read there is a way to enter bootloader without battery, just can not find the original again.

Kaiser touch screen problem

Few hours ago i unlock my phone, there was a problem with radio rom, and my friend recommend to install Kaiser HyperDragon III_WWE version of WM6.1.
I install it, play 5-6 minutes and after this check some delay problem. I make soft restart and after this phone touch screen don't work.
Touch don't response. Made hard restart ... and it's the last think that i did.
At startup i check this "tap the screen to setup your windows devices ....", but as touch screen don't response .. i don't have any progress.
Try to resintall the same WIN6.1 version, but no changes.
Any advice? what's the problem.
Is there any way to fix it ?
sounds like a hardware problem. Most likely the wiring is bad or corroded. You'll need a new screen or you might be able to fix the wiring. I kind've don't like the fact that our kaisers vibrate at startup because you think it would eventually rattle something loose which may have happened in your case. Before getting a new screen though, load a new ROM. To do it without activesync enter the bootloader mode by pressing down the camera and power button at the same time while the phone is off. Then connect your phone and it should say USB after a few minutes. Then flash

Buttons Not Working and severe battery Drain

Hi hope someone can help. Over the weekend my TD2 started playing up. All of the hardware buttons apart from the on/off button have stopped working. I also notice that if I turn the screen off with a short tap of the on/off button, after a few seconds it comes back on again. All touch screen functions are ok. It also appears to be draining the battery very quickly, to the extent that fully charged at bedtime (no bluetooth or wifi on and a stable 3-4 bar signal) it will be comppletely drained by morning. As far as I am aware the phone has not gotten wet at all.
I have also re-installed the office HTC rom, which made no difference
Any ideas??
So you reinstalled the stock rom and did a hard reset?
You can try Tarkim's Keyboard controller and see if your hardware keys can be mapped to a different function.
That would help eliminate hardware vs software issues.
I have the same problem. Also my backlight keeps working and won't go off. Can't perform a hard reset because my volume buttons(and all other hardbuttons accept the on/off) aren't working.
Searched for the solution but can't find it anywhere. Who can help me?

Try clear storage app to HR.
Thanks for your reaction.
Yesterday I managed to put an official ROM on my phone.(latest from HTC site).
Problem only got worser. Phone gets complety stuck(directly after boot) in the volume screen. Sometimes its flashes back to the normal screen but only for 1 second. Buttons still aren't working so can't do anything with my phone right now( not even the hard reset methode you told me).
Started to think that this is really some hardware issue. Can't remember that water got in my phone or the phone felt really hard. Any solutions maybe?
Otherwise I think I just go to the store.

One last thing you can try is a Task29 explained here.
Use your official rom (right click on .exe and extract the RUU_Signed.nbh and place in task29 folder, then connect device in Bootloader mode and run the Task29.exe. Follow the instructions in the link.

[Q] HTC Pure Touch Screen Not Responsive

The device powers on. The buttons on the side and button work fine. The animations of the OS are working. I have tried a hard reset, soft reset, and standard power on/off. Does this mean I should try replacing the digitizer? Any ideas that I can get done by the end of the week before I go on vacation.

I think, You need screen calibration
One easy thing to try: Place the palm of your hand on the screen. Hold it there for 10 seconds. See if it works now. Helps if your hands are warm.
I've had the same problem with screen. It helps if you put your palm over the screen but it's only temporary solution. Does anybody know what is the reason for this and what needs to be done/replaced.
Would appreciate any help.

[Q] Is this phone Gpu malfunctioning?

Hello.
I have a friend who asked me to replace its screen and digitizer that were broken.
I bought one altogether and installed.
But the problem is that the picture appeared with horizontal streaks as shown in this photo I have taken:
made a hard reset but stayed the same, then I made the OTA upgrade to ICS.
after that nothing more is shown in screen, It vibrates and I can get in fastboot, blinded of course because scren is black all the time.
then I tried to install custom roms, installed cwm recovery and when I go to recovery sometimes the screen lights up and shows this:
when i press up and down I see a litle change in the screen but not readable.
I tried to install roms but I think it does not start because the buttons does not light up.
what do you think I should do?

Looks like something hardware is broken. You can't flash any ROMs right? You might want to try a RUU if you think it may be software
But I'd say hardware
Was it anything like that before the new digitalizer install? Perhaps it is not installed correctly?

I think I can flash a rom, but I don't know if it gives an error on the screen. is there a way to make a log file of the install or boot process?
To flash a rom I put the rom file on sdcard and boot into recovery, then volume down 4 times, power, power, volume up 2 times, power, and 5 times up, power.
to install a ruu is this same process? Or can I install from fastboot? that way I get an output of the command on the pc...
the old digitizer and screen was all black, it was completely broken.

I reckon 99% of the time there are no errors in ROM installs. You could try get a adb logcat of the booting?
installing a RUU is completely different. It is done from a PC where you go through the tutorial on the computer while the phone is attached. So, it will tell you on the computer if there are any errors
Okay so this is an improvement
I changed the Display of 2 IncS and both worked afterwards. Your Screenshot looks like the connector isn't connected properly.
Maybe the screen connector isn't connected correctly?
Try reconnecting the display-connector. Make sure that it sits correctly.

Yes it is the connector, but I try and try many times and only once it was ok, but when assembled the parts it stoped working...
I don't see anything wrong in the connector or flex, I don't know why it does not work properly...

+1 for connector or especially the flex. It would be good to replace with another screen(or flex, I don't know).
This doesn't seem to be a software problem. It looks like just a problem for transferring data to screen.
