Just recently my Fuze touch screen is not accurate at all. I tried to align the pointer but if I press a certain part of the screen, its selecting the area above or below.
I hate to hard reset my phone- can someone help?

You def should have done this properly. Did you align the screen using your stylus only right?

Yes, aligned with stylus and tried soft reset. Still acting up where if I touch a portion of the screen, it acts as if I pressed a different area.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Might be a long shot, but make sure the screen is clean and free from all debris.
hard reset seems like the only option. unless you want to send it in and get a new one...
Make sure the screen protector you are using is placed right. Are you using a 2 piece plastic body protector? If so, the top half may be putting undue pressure on the screen itself. Remember, with these screens, when touched in two different places will recognize a midpoint...not one or the other of the pressure points.
regestry
There is a regestry key that hold the info of the digitalization process.. I will look for it and post the values. I know that they are not the same for all phones but in his case maybe work... If he wana try.
registry key...
The registry with touch screen values is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\DeviceMap\Touch\CalibrationData
and the values on mine are...
493,511 800,186 797,836 192,828 191,176
So just open that registry key and copie those numbers and it shuold work... Maybe not perfect but enough to do a real calibration...
Sorry for my english but its my second lengage...
good luck!

I have just done a hard reset on my XDA. However, I am unable to get past the Align Screen mode as I align the screen but it won't go any further.
How can I get past this so that I can get into my XDA and synchronise it?
Thank you
Why isn't it getting past screen alignment? Is it not responding to taps?
V
My XDA responded to virtually nothing - I tapped the screen and it took 5 minutes to respond to every tap instead of instantly. I was advised to do a hard reset, but when I do the screen taps to align the screen, the cursor goes to the middle of the screen and nothing else happens so I am unable to progress.
Any help would be appreciated.
Ive this problem as you do,
Anyone can help?
please

Weird...
Are you using a screen protector? If so, take it off before alignment; it's possible that there's some crud stuck underneath it that's registering a tap, or something.
I can't think of anything else, besides a faulty touchscreen, or some dirt in one of the edges of the screen. Sorry.
Try reflashing the rom. If that doen't work then looks like you've got hardware failure.
kindly redirect me on how to flash the rom?
im very new
Thank you

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
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?
Hi everybody!
I'm having problems with my Pocket PC.
It all begun a while ago, when a part of my screen stopped working (didn't respond to touches). So I did a hard reset. Then, it wouldn't pass the Align Screen procedure. So I made a file on the Pocket PC root folder called welcome.not - and it worked, the welcome screen was bypassed.
Now, however, everything on the screen is mirrored. Not the image on the screen but the response to my touches. So when I press the upper right corner with my stylus, it reacts in the lower left - and reverse, across the whole screen.
What I want now is of course a state like before the hard-reset. I can accept a part of the screen not working, but I want something at least to be useable.
I think this would be easily fixed by just running Align Screen, but that doesn't work - it gets stuck in a infinite loop.
Maybe there are some Align Screen "profiles" to place in the windows folder/registry?
I'm using a HP iPAQ 214 Enterprise.
Randor244
might it be a ROM problem?
Maybe, though I think the problem is that the screen is completely unaligned and therefore is totally wierd.
What I think I need is:
1. An application to browse the PPC registry from a desktop PC
2. Sceen align data to put in in the registry (I've read somewhere else that that data is stored in the registry)
Or, maybe I'm wrong
In case it is a rom problem, can I solve it easily in any way?
well to be honest, the first thing i'd do is switch a ROM... unless it's a ROM you got from XDA and is well-known..
if the rom switching doesn't work, i'd download a pda control app like MyMobiler or SOTI Pocket Controller to fix this. maybe you have hardware problems with your screen..
I don't know where the screen alignment data sits in the registry but i'm sure you can find it on this forum. if you manage to change and it still doesn't work... maybe replac ea screen? there's a marketplace section in which you might be able to buy spare parts.. and there are guide on dismantling so you can replace the screen yourself
well to be honest, the first thing i'd do is switch a ROM... unless it's a ROM you got from XDA and is well-known..

Well, I havn't got much knowledge on how to do these things... Could I get a brief explanation?
I know what ROM is and so on... but how to switch it... hmm...
I'm sorry, can't help you with that.. i'm not familiar with the iPaq... but I understand that you never switched a ROM so it's probably the original one.. and you shouldn't have a problem with it.
try aligning your screen using the registry.. if it doesn't work.. i'd go with replacing a screen.
Yeah, I would also like to align the screen using the registry - but how? I need to know some values to input, right? And as far as I know they need to be specific for my model
So how?
maybe you can contact HP and ask them?
Welcome. Well, my problem is this, my touch screen not functioning periodically. This means that every once in a short time starts to go crazy, so I tapne something and here start something else. It was as if someone touched me in different places display and use that make my job has become impossible. I downloaded some miracle Touch Visualiser, which showed me that they are in different times, two or even three fingers placed on the screen, although it was not touched ... still turns me something inadvertently, or something not quite touching and I see to highlight that if someone had touched, and turns on .. Does anyone know what fault is it? Why is this happening? What can I do about this? Waiting for quick response and thank you in advance
Remove your screen guard and check if your problem persists.
But i haven't screen guard..... its impossible, because sometimes when it has locked the phone up and for a moment it was good

I am not sure if you understood me previously but I meant scratch guard.
If you don't have one then there could be many reasons for the same, try these steps and see if it helps:
* Check your touchscreen, put this code (*#0*#) => Touch => Run your fingers over the grid of boxes.
* Make a backup of all your data & factory reset your handset.
Do update on the progress.
There is no scratch guard. And what about? Sometimes I can perform this test, but sometimes it is not because the line that I draw, she turns and appears in different places, and sometimes the phone just does not respond to touch, does a black screen and locks up. Already restored to factory settings, did not help...

Which country are you from buddy ?
Try flashing your stock ROM back using to your device, if still doesn't help take your device to the service center as it could be a hardware problem.
I'm Polish, I apologize for my English ok, I'll take it to the site, I have a warranty card. Thank you
