i have XDA trion and apart of the problem i have with teh alignment of the screen which i find out that is practically unsolvable, i have another problem which is as much annoying as the alignment one:
when i tap on an area somewhere in the center of the screen it closes my window in portrait mode and opens start menu in landscape mode (obviously when i tap there it actually taps on the upper right corner where the X button is when in portrait and the start menu when in landscape )
that does happen only when i tap in a little area right at the center of the screen and seems to be different from the usual misallignment that i have (and many others )
can anyone help me please
thanks
welcome to the forum,
I recommend using the hardware buttons to go to start/settings/system/screen/align
and if that doesn't help, hard reset

i already installed a new ROM but still doesnt fix it ...
mabe i will have to end up spending 100 EU for new screen
any otehr suggestions?
sorry, I assumed you were new due to join date and first post, hence my first reply.
give us a couple more details when you post please, such as did you buy it brand new/second hand? if it's not new how long have you had it? has it just started doing this recently after behaving like a good pda for ages? or has it always done this? which rom are you running? and is it the official one?
anyway, you could try removing the casing and clean around the edges of the screen, I've read of dirt/grime getting built up and stuck, which can cause this problem. if you don't know how to remove the case (I don't either)-Google
good luck

Hi,
I just received my Touch Pro and I tried to use the camera! The app version is 6.01, but it seems to have a few bugs like:
1-When I touch to center button to focus, nothing happens! To make it work, I need to hard press it to take the first picture, after that, the touch focus starts to work!!
2-If I take too many pictures or try to focus a lot of times, the auto focus stops to work and show a red X. The only way to make it work again is to soft reset the phone!
My ROM version is:1.90.405.1 WWE
Could you confirm this behavior on your phones? Or maybe my phone is faulty?

sounds very strange......
I think the only thing that may help is a hard reset....
If that is not working...ya probably have to send it back...:S
But I hope I'm wrong and somebody else has a good idea/solution 4 you! good luck with it!
1. Settings -> Advanced -> Page 3/5
Shoot Option = Touch and Press
Hi,
Thanks everyone for replying.
My setup was already in touch and press.
But like I said. If I soft reset the phone, the first time I use the camera I have to hard press the button and take a dumb picture, as the touch doesn't work. After that the touch button works forever(till the next soft reset).
Seems to be a software bug, but I am not sure. If someone can test it on his/her phone it would be great!
Soft reset the phone and try to use the camera. If the touch button doesn't work, take a dumb picture with hard press the button, after that the button starts to work.
My Touch Pro with stock ROM also does this.
Hi Mike,
Thanks for replying! So seems to be a software bug! Let's see if they will release a fix for it!!
Hi. My touch pro has the no go first time but work afterwards until next soft reset problem too.
But recently I noticed if I push in the button(doing anything or nothing as long as it was pressed) before I enter the camera app, it always work.
EDIT oh stock rom 405.1 WWE
Humm, so seems that the problem with the button is with the device driver that controls the touch part of the button, not the camera application itself.
Well I'm hoping its the software but fearing its the physical button.
I also have exactly the same problem! Stock ROM.
Never experienced this problem since I first bought it. Same goes with my Diamond. Anyway, try hard reset your device. If the problem is still there, it would be best to send in for warranty claim.
Can't we just update the ROM?
Mine it also v. 405.
I think I'll update today.
programatix, what is your ROM version? Could you try to do the soft reset test I posted? So you can see if the problem happens.
Mike, will you updade the ROM to a newer version? Which one? After you do that, please tell us if it solves the problem.
I have the same problem with mine :-(
Sometime the autofocus works, in most cases not and after a while after pressing the button I get an very unsharp picture.
I have the latest german ROM Version 1.90.407.4 GER so other users with this actual version might have that problem too...
I also have this problem but my auto-focus just plain never works...EVER. Has anyone tried a hard reset and had it fix the problem? I would like to know before I try it.
+1 - sw bug for def
405.1 WWE - stock UK rom.
so, it has been a few days, has anyone tried a hard reset or found any other solution to these camera bugs? Or is everyone just trading in for a new pro?
Strange. My AT&T Fuze w/ stock rom doesn't have this problem. After a soft reset, I open the camera and press the center button, it auto-focuses just like it's supposed to. Must have been fixed for the AT&T rom.
Apparently not many people have this problem on sprint either since nobody seems interested in it.
I've been mucking about with mine since I thought the touch/auto focus feature wasn't working either.
What I discovered was that the button doesn't really respond to your touch very well and so you end up pushing the button all the way down which ends up focusing and taking the photo all in one step. At least this was the case with mine anyway.
Instead of just touching the button softly, try 'stabbing' at it with your thumb a little instead. I don't mean forcefully, just kind of tap and hold as opposed to just lightly touching it.
That's the best way I can describe it. It may not be your problem however...
At some times it works fine, at other times, not. It happens with any system like tnt, wm5 and wm6 and it is solved by re-aligning but lately the screen would not even recognized my pen stroke on the alignment process...
Any help??
thanks in advanced!
Forgot to say; I have TNT 20273.1.3.3
Nobody with this problem?
could be a workaround
Hi,
i am using this ROM and this Screen Align problem is not a software issue its hardware issue,
Try to press corner border frame and kept it pressed and then try to see if you can work properly, do this one by one with each corner.
once you identify which side your screen is not fitted properly then you can diagnose further how to correct it.
mine trouble was above to call end button corner. then I unscrew the entire device and re Fix it.
Cheers
Thanks for your accurate reply! Mine is in the same place. I think it´s because there is too much pressure going on there...did you fix it succesfully? Or do you actually change the whole housing?
my phone is stuck on the HTC Senses screen, and the only thing that works is the start menu, but it doesnt allow me to select anything, other than nothing else works? any ideas?
what you did before that happen ? you may install app or apply a tweek !
Did you flash another ROM before?
When yes:
Do a Hardreset use Task29 to clean all! Flash new Rom! After Flashing new ROM do a Hardreset again! At the first time on Manila Screen do a softreset.
When i did something wromg somebody can Correct me please!
Here are the link:
Task29:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781
sounds like the stock rom to me. mine did that all the time until i installed kumars tmous rom. or wait till the 18th and install the official 2.13 rom.
I suppose that you allready tried the soft restart (with the red button).
Remove the battery for a while and try again
good luck anyway
consdering same topic
is there is any app enable me to make a soft reset using one of the physical buttons and this all in the case of device hang up and non response..... please answer me
i think no! But you can take off yout back cover and push the little red Softreset button!
replay
of course i know that ... but moving the back cover alot make it more easy to open every time and in the future it may don't close ever ... so i want that app to just assgin the soft reset shortcut to any phyiscal button to use it in the case of hang up or device freezing

It is how i said! Use the little red button, because when the phone hang the hard buttons mostly hang too.
How often you do a softreset at one day??? I do maybe one in a week with the red button.
So mostly i use xda shutdown!
thanks alot for ur replays guys ... and i tryed the sloutions in the last repaly but really it didn't differ from the AE BUTTON PLUS app ,it works very well in normal mode ,, but if the device hang up or freeze don't work at all....
in my opinion there is no app even it assgined successfuly to a physical button, can do this function in the case of hanging up ..because apps is of course related to the main operating system which is already frozen ...so i think that its no way to pass throw the cycle of removing the back cover and push the red
i understand what you mean but i think you don't understand me... the case of hang up can happen to any one of us more than one time even in one day for any reason ... and to open the back cover every time to push the red button is avery harmful process to cover and may make it don't close well by the time ...so all i want is to make a soft reset to a frozen device without opening the back cover !
i understand and you are right!! But i never found tool or progs that works!
But still we can hope that anybody do it!
replay
yes we hope that...
and thanks alot to you Dic3potr for ur interest and time...
see u later in a big problem
After updating to 3.2, I noticed that the touch screen has a ton of bugs. I used this program to check the inputs (I can't post links now due to forum restrictions):
Multitouch visible test
Basically if I scroll from far left to far right (Asus logo on the top left of my view), there is always a cutoff somewhere on the screen.
I never or hardly ever notice this problem when I'm in 3.1.
Any ideas on how to fix the problem? Or is it just 3.2 that has this and I should go back to 3.1?
Help is totally appreciated. Thanks!
Update:
Sent in the TF to Asus (to Ontario Canada) on August 9, 2011
Received it back from Asus on August 29, 2011 via UPS
Problem: they only reloaded the OS and did NOT test the touch screen so I have the exact SAME problem... Requesting RMA again
Can you grab a video of the issue?
Plonk it on youtube and then stick the url on here.
Cheers
Video is at youtube:
www(dot)youtube(dot)com/watch?v=ukdzYMKYtFE
Basically a portion of the screen does not respond to touch, and the classic turning screen on and off does not fully solve this problem.
had this problem before 3.2.
my screen have only small places..quarter of inch, random places.
noticed this only after rooting. and with some kernels more than others.
have you rooted?
No root. All stock since I am too lazy to do anything other than install apps, view video and manga.

Quality vid there, top notch.
Have you tried a hard reboot?
And a restore to factory default settings?
For some reason that sounds sarcastic there... but the video was taken by a Desire HD so it's not that good quality. It conveys the point (I hope).
Haven't tried hard reboot or factory default settings because that would mean I have to reinstall stuff and re-setup things like gmail.
Lol dude, i wasnt being sarcastic, for some reason i was expecting some half-assed effort.
Hard reset shouldnt wipe your data.
Hard Reset:
Unplug the power cord and shut the unit off and Press and Hold the power button and the "Down" volume button together for 6-10 seconds and let them both go. After a few seconds you should see a couple of shapes in the middle of the screen called "Wipe Data" and "Android". Wait a few more seconds until the term "Cold Boot" appears in the list near the top of the screens and just press and release the "Down" volume button again and let it reboot. If you own the dock be sure and do this with the dock connected.
Sorry man, I guess my sarcasm detector is pretty off today.
I tried the hard reset and the same problem persists. I will have to see how this can be fixed though (I see that many people have similar problems though).
Thanks for your help =)
might be worth giving asus a tinkle and see what they say.
huaweiascend p6 touchscreen problem
Hi Friends,
Would be great if somebody could help me!
At the left bottom part of the screen, the step-back arrow does not work properly at browser screen. It must be pushed quite strongly to let it work, while the right arrow, the step-forward one works with the slightest touch. For safety sake I tried the smae part of the touch-screen at the normal key-pad, when writing sms. There were no problem at all! What do you think about it? Is ita fatal problem, the whole touch screen must be changed? Or?
Many thanks for any comment!
