Hello to all!
After I've upgraded my Magician to 1.13 I recognized my screen disaligns after 5 minutes of use. The I've downgraded to 1.12, but the disalign still stays. After browsing the forum I've recognized that much people have the same problem too. Some guy says that you should downgrade your ROM, or take the unit to the HTC European Service (if you have guarantee).
After browsing in the registry, I've found a regkey about Calibration. I modified it, and now the machine runs good, without disaligning.
So the method is the next:
1. Open your favourite Regeditor (Resco, Total Commander etc.)
2. Open HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/TOUCH/
3. Open CalibrationData You will see coordinates.
- The first coordinate is always x coordinate, so that is the horizontal
- The second coordinate is alwasy the y coordinate, so that is the vertical
- The first number pair (ex.: x,y) is the center point
- The second one is the upper left
- The third one is the bottom left
- The fourth is the bottom right
- and the last one is the upper right
My screen calibration is:
474,498 814,773 814,228 119,228 119,773
I hope it will help to guys who has the same problem.
If someone finds better calibrate coordinates, pls post it.
Cheers,
cheers for this , I have the same problem and have tried many different tweaks with no result.
My co-ordinates were different but then I was getting a mis-alignment problem I will give your co-ordinates a go and report back.
mine has no issue or whatsoever. working fine since...
my coordinates are:
502,498,862,771 859,223 138,229
hope this helps...
Never got no problems with it.
Coordinates are:
499,503 861,774 856, 231 148,223 142, 773
What a great discovery
Mine is a HTC Charmer (MDA Compact 2) on WM5. My data is very different
1928, 1960 3308, 617 3296, 3316
(WARNING! THIS IS NOT Magician configuration!)

u wrote : Open your favourite Regeditor (Resco, Total Commander etc.)

i found the total comander and do wat exactly wat u say.
But the my problem doesnt solve

i have resive one devise with problems in alighn screen first my thought was that the problem was at rom and the extrom that was missing after lot of trying and with resco registry i found that the calibration data was missing pls pls if any one can help me by posting the coordinates of that device QTEK 2020i
Why don't you ask in the matching topic?
hey guys can you make a permanent fix for the disalignment bug of xda mini?
i have this problem...but i got a solution on this topic,but the problem is when you hardreset the ppc its going back again the problem unless you tweak it again in regeditor...
can the rom developers include this tweak for the upcoming cook rom for xda mini so that the screen disalignment can be fix...
thanks
to HyperMalac:
so, the solution is to change the coordinates with yours?? hmmm ok i will try it.. i (and my friend here) have the same problem. i thought this is LCD problem and cannot be fixed unless u change the lcd (as 1 of the member said) thx~! i'll let you know~!
not working
i have to constantly align my screen and even putting in the coordinates..it still doesn't work. I will be sending it back to the repair centre sooon.
dear all,
I want to ask how to open the registry in the WM2003?
I've installed the Total Commander, but after that I still confused what to do next.
many thanks
Open TC and open the "folder" named: \\. this \\ folder contains the registry...
NEWS:
Finally I've took my Magician to the HTC Europe Service Center...Waiting, for solution....Will post the result
Cheers
hypermalac....
so the reconfiguration in registry do not solve the screen missalignment problem? Coz I've try, but it seems no result, only the frequent of screen become missalign is decrease...
any solution for this?
Well, the registry modding, only reduced the misaligns, for me too. I saw somewhere on this forum that this problem is hardware problem, but I don't think so. Someone said, that the touchscreen has a factory malfunction. Anyway I'd took it to the service, an as soon as I get it back, I will post, if it's solved the problem, or not.
Cheers
@HyperMalac:
well, when u get ur mini back from service centre, ofcourse it will be fixed, no more sreen disaligned, for sure..
now, the problem is, why this happend to many people (from different countries) ?? can you ask the service center while they keep your mini : what is wrong with xda2 mini lcd?? why this disaligment happend? how can we avoid this?? how to fix (without send back to factory) etc etc.. please ask, if possible, ofcoz... thx alot
FYI, this is not the only problem that many xda2mini from difference countries get. other problem is after take the battery out for only 5 secs, you will get HARD reset. the backup battery is not functioning~! happend to me~! then sent mine to factory, they fix it but strangely, they change the MOTHERBOARD~!
ah, i think someting is wrong with HTC.....

Well, when I get it back, I'll ask your questions, if it's possible, and I hope too that the service give some solution for us, to avoid this problem (screen misalignment), without taking our magician to service.
Battery problem:
Changed the motherboard???Do you mean the hardware buttons?
Well, my magician works fine expect the sreen, so I haven't got any batt problem. But I will ask it too.
Cheers
Hardware Issue
Pretty sure this IS a hardware issue. Happened on my MDA Compact and got progressively worse.
No amount of hard resets, software configuration and ROM upgrades fixed it.
Came back from HTC good as new.
I have heard that using screen protectors causes this as it is touching the screen all the time.
I no longer use a screen protector so I'll let you know next year if the problem has come back again!
help needed please, for some reason my spvm3100's screen is just a bright white screen, ive heard of this problem before and searched the threads for answers bt i can only find people who have had the problem and not a solution...
any answers - ive tried hard reseting already.
cheers jx
so - I'm screwed then???

Is your phone working alright otherwise,can it receive calls, make calls and perform other tasks ? well if it can then it's your LCD screen,it has faked out.
Well I'm not much into Hermes devices as I only had wizards uptill now,but in wizards,there are certain programs which can be very helpful in this situation,with them you can display the Today screen on your computer desktop via usb connection and perform all the tasks.
Download some these from here and check if it works with Hermes also or not,if they do pop up the screen of your phone on your PC's desktop,atleast you'll have the opportunity to use your phone and know if the phone is working or not.if it works than its your LCD screen,get it replaced.
Soti Pocket Controller
http://www.soti.net/
My Mobiler
My MDA IV screen digitizer have failed me, and since I cannot go for a replacement, I am trying to use it as well as I can with an unreliable touch screen.
For this, I need the correct screen calibration data from other TMobile MDA IV owners (not touch pro, as there is a DIFFERENCE)
For those who dont know where to find.
Open any registry editor and navigate to HKLM> Hardware> touch screen> calibration data.
There will be five coordinates like (xxx,yyy xxx,yyy xxx,yyy xxx,yyy xxx,yyy)
I hope this will be a workable solution. Thanks
Anyone have this issue or a fix? BT connects perfect, works, perfect, but the command to hang up on the BT device dosen't properly hang up, and the phones returns the #777 error.
It does answer from the BT device properly. It does with with my other cell phones.
TP2 VZW
I had the same problem with my Voyager Pro headset and found that if I hit the button once, wait a second and hit it a second time it hangs up. Maybe it will work for you.
I have the same issue.
Using Moto HT710 and VZW stock ROM
same issue in w/ 09 bmw nav/bt connection. I have to grab the phone and press the end button as it never hangs up.
cab might fix it
Over at PPCGeeks.com some have fixed the issue using the cab in this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=90155
I am having the issue with my Ford Sync system. I will test the results of the cab this afternoon and post them. Hopefully this works because it is fairly annoying.
Here is the cab if anyone wants it.
Well it didnt work for my Verizon TP2 and the Ford Sync system, hopefully someone else has better luck with it.
This seems to work for me. It hangs up almost instantly now. Thanks for the find.
rsbrown69 I am glad I could help, could you post which version of the TP2 you have (verizon, tmobile, ATT). I just want to know if it worked on another verizon phone or not, if so I will hard reset and give it another shot.

I am using the mostly stock Sprint TP2. The only main modification I have done is the Touch Pro 2 cleanup http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=88640
Looking at the thread on PPCGeeks it looks like mostly sprint users having luck with the cab as well. Hopefully something will come along for the verizon version as well.
I have the Sprint version and have installed the cab. I do not see any improvement. I experience intermittent problems with or without the cab. It doesn't seem to make a difference. FWIW, I use the Jawbone Prime and Jawbone 2. Same with either.
Just out of curiosity did you do a soft reset after the install? I remember someone mentioning that in the original PPCGeek thread.
Yes, I did a soft reset. Actually, a soft reset with or without the cab seems to solve the problem....for a while. Then it shows up again. It is a bit strange.
doesnt work
I tried it on my Sprint TP2 and it does not work either. I installed it and did a soft reset and it still does not work for me either.
It would be the best thing that happened if it did work cause I use my BT all day and this sleep mode BT thing on the TP2 is cool for battery life but it sucks for using the BT feature which to me is more important than battery life and I have car chargers and usb chargers so I would rather have a working BT.
Does anyone have a cab or fix that will allow the BT to function like the old Touch Pro? That phone had a great BT even if the battery life was poor.
Thanks for the attempt to fix the issue but it is a no go here.
Does not work on stock VZW rom
Didn't work on my TP2 VZW either.
The one person that has responded that it worked had the cleanup cab installed. I am going to try a full reset and put only the cleanup cab and the bluetooth cab on and see if I can get results. Yeah this bug is that annoying to me. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=88640
Ok I did a hard reset, programmed the phone, installed the cleanup cab, installed the bluetooth cab, joined the phone to my ford sync system, made a call, and guess what... the phone hung up beautifully using my standard steering wheel control for sync. There must be something in that cleanup cab that is either A) the actual fix or B) a necessary piece of the fix. Sorry but I am not going to hard reset again to test it, mine is working so hopefully this info can help you guys as well. On a side note that cleanup cab is pretty nice but read the thread to make sure you want/need all that is included.

The cleanup cab alone hadn't fixed the problem for me so that is when I tried this threads fix. So far it works more often than not but it still does not hang up every once in a while. Must be a combination of things between the cleanup cab and this one but still not the correct fix, better but not enough.
Mine worked none of the time before, I basically had to wait for the caller to hang up or pull my phone out of my pocket and press end, so any improvement is huge for me. I am traveling this weekend and next week so hopefully I will have more info to report at least with my setup with Sync (never got into the earpieces, so not testing that).
I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum. This is a good way to keep the number of new threads with questions down to a minimum, which will make new threads essentially for people that are contributing to the Magician. This includes, but is not limited to, people that are providing the following:
- Roms & Kitchens
- Programs & Apps
- Fixes & Tweaks
- Skins & Themes
- Tips & Tricks
I would like to request the help from other members to keep the thread in order and in check. This will have the added side effect of creating an ever self updating knowledge base that will far extend the content of the Wiki. This will in turn save us from having to answer the same question a billion times...
Please refer to the Wiki first before asking any questions though! It can be located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Magician

No, usually the rebooting-by-itself problem on the Magician is caused by loosed contact on the back cover, you need to put a small piece of paper in order to prevent the device from rebooting alone.
Use activ sync 4.5
hallo... I just took my magician out again... it's not working since 4 years ago, when I, as a terrible dumb man, made it poweroff while installing a radio upgrade.. now all I get is the boot screen and in few seconds it goes to black screen and USB 2.0 (or something similar) on the lower side of the screen... is there anything i can do to make it live again?
Hi everyone, can someone please advise me on the smallest/fastest most naked rom for the Magician?
I used to have a Russian rom which I set to English and this when fully tweaked gave me 42Mb of free ram and I used this for some time (mainly as a backup sat nav)
Anyway over the years I saw the newer roms and decided to try them but the best I can achieve now is around 32Mb free.
I don't care which rom or even if office etc have been removed I just need a really striped down naked rom for my 64Mb Magician.
Anyone please, and I have tried to look but there is sooo many pages and I have tried quite a few Cotula roms.
