So I have a pda (xda) Orbit 2, it’s from O2. While I was at Glastonbury 08 towards the end of the festival I found that I couldn't unlock the phone. I.e. you would press unlock (bottom left button) and then confirm that you want to unlock the phone. This is the standard way to unlock the phone normally. So the problem then was that it had the unlock at the bottom at the left but you can't click on it :s. Ok it was the last day so I just thought it'll work by the time I get home just leave it turned off. Got home charged it worked perfectly.
Now I’ve that problem once since then. Fixed the problem the same way. Plugged it into the mains bobs your uncle it fixed it.
This time its different I have tried everything. Soft reset, taking about the battery, charged it fully and let the battery die out complete. Nothing will get rid of this problem I just can't unlock my phone. I can still receive calls but can't read text's emails. Very frustrating. If people haven't got clues its off to 02 flash the phone loose everything then tell me they have no idea what is wrong with it. Hell I can flash the phone myself O another key factor is i know the screen still has sensitivity becuase when i touch the screen a similar screen to that of the unlock screen comes up, only without the unlock button.
Anyway any thoughts anybody?
ok Chang phones touch screen
ok i think your phones touch screen is gone plese chang the touch screen
lol, easily said. That would be a rather large pain i have to say cheers for the reply though
Incase i didn't make it clear everything on the screen is fine. I thought maybe i had aligned my screen some how just very very badly.

of which i fully appreciate. But changing an entire screen is a pain which ever way you look at it.
no not changing the entire screen
bro you need to chang the only touch panel not the screen, screen and touch panel r the diffrent T.P is mounted on screen and you can chang it withc good hardware guy.

well lets hope the warranty cover's this. Either wise my silly insurance will have to
Since some time I have this problem that when I turn on the Pro I have to 'unlock' the device. At the bottom on the left you tab the screen to unlock and next you tab the rightside of the screen somewhere half way and than it should 'unlock'. But it seems that my screen is not aligned and when I touch the right side I can see the screen 'light up' on the left side.
After unlocking using the keyboard I can touch the right side eg the 'X' to close the phone but instead I get the start menu. If I touch the 3 on the phones softkeys I get a 1.
Any idea is welcome.
hard reset, so you can align the screen at the beginning...
or use your keyboard to navigate to start->settings->system tab->screen and run "align screen"
my 8525 keeps constantly unaligning

The 8525 (aka hermes) has been known since first release that some device will have screen alignment problems, I personally sent my TyTN back to HTc europe a few weeks after i got it (August 2006) and the screen alignment issue was fixed, something to do with gaskets around the touch screen expanding??
Ive sent my Raphael back after 20 days because the LED behind the "Send" key stopped working, but im getting my replacement back some time this week.
There are ALWAYS problems with HTC devices but that doesnt make me love them any less
Advice to the OP: if the device isnt working correctly get it RMA-ed for a replacement/repair, these are expensive devices and you shouldnt settle for anything faulty
I'm having the same problem as mrvanx
i've been digging in the registry and found
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / HARDWARE / Touch / calibrationdata with a numerical value
is this where the screen cailbration data is stored and has someone looked at this? Kinda n00b with this and could'nt find anything related to this on the forum. Could use some help, cuz this constant un-alignment thing is driving me nuts.
Maybe someone knows a base value that's close to perfect alignment, if there is such a thing?
thanx
Hello everybody.
My Touch Pro got a bad touchscreen, the center part is dead.
So when I want to allign my screen, I can't get past the center cross.
I can allign my screen but then I have to tap all crosses slightly on the right.
But now everything is missalligned.
So could someone post me his/hers CalibrationData from the registry?
It needs to be from a Touch Pro/Raphael..!
It located at: HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/TOUCH/CalibrationData
It would really help me out!
Thanks..

I had the same problem. Where-ever I touched the screen, only the left side of the phone highlighted.
After the re-alignment, it worked !!
Bad thing : I have to do it every 2 days :-(
And yes : I'm using my phone A LOT !!!! (It's just a part of me (Am I becoming nuts ?))
Screen alignment problem correlated to high temperatures?
Hi guys,
Since a week I've had problems with my screen alignment all the time. Sometimes the touchscreen worked fine, sometimes it was completely off. Re-aligning it in settings worked most of the time. Soft resetting worked too sometimes.
But today the problem just went away. I started thinking and came up with the idea that sunny weather and high temperature may induce this problem, since the problem started when it was great weather here. And it magically went away today, which is a rainy day (with moderate temperature 15-20 C).
Could any of you confirm this? Are you living in a warm environment? Does the problem go away when in an airconditioned space? (Mine did)

Srry title is supposed to say Help with HTC Touch Pro for sprint....it Woke up with a bad case of stupidity
So i wake up 2day and i find that my Sprint Htc Touch Pro's screen is like jumping around like crazy...the touch screen still works and all but it moves around non stop. i can still make out where lets say the all the button are so i can still find my way around the phone but its sooooo annoying. so i pressed the restart button on the botton hoping it would fix it and when is turns back on it just goes 2 a blue screen. so i pressed the button again and now a green screen which soon turns white. pressed again and not its a black screen with the logo Touch pro on the bottom and the red little numbers and letter on the top...(the Touch Pro logo is usually in the middle and the Numbers and letters on the bottom....) so it finally loads up and the screen is still messed up. so i went crazy, i got home from school and i saved all my contacts but coping the Pim file to my 1gb memory card and did the clear storage to once again hopefully fix everything. well it didnt but atleast i still hav my contacts. ha ha...(im laughing so that i dont cry) everything still work though, i can send txt, talk on the phone, and do everything else....but cant see anything cuz he screen is jumping around. and no im not an imbecile and messed up on the modding and messed the phone up...or else it would done this a looong time ago.... so any help will b soooooo helpful. oh and i took out the battery and put it back in the still doesnt fix anything. sometimes the screen stays blue and doesnt do anything...*tear falls on keyboard* lol
have you tried a hard reset?
i did...i went into clear storage and did the whole 1234 and then press yes. didnt do anything beside erase everything and then go back 2 crazy jumping screen....
Any fixes?
Black_Yoshi,
I was wondering if you found any solutions to your "screen jumpiness". I have got the same problem happening on my Touch Pro. Just started happening acouple days ago. Cant put a finger on what caused it, sprint will probably say water damage. I have the TEP except its my 3rd one in 12 months so they will cancel the program..
Any luck? Thanks

YOur display is most likely going out. That started happening to my touch pro and with in three days the screen just went black so i took it the the sprint store and they change the screen display
Greetings.
I woke up this morning and my HTC touch pro wasn't at the usual place(my desk) so I call the phone to see where it is and it appears it was at a part of my bed where there's a piece of iron.
The screen is scratched pretty bad and the screen wasnt touch sensitive anymore when I was trying to move around in it.
Then I decided to restart the phone to see if that would help but the phone won't even boot up anymore.
Anyone know what I could do to get it to work again?
Also, where I could buy a new screen/how much one costs.
Thanks
Bump.. this is important :S
Thats weird that it won't even turn on. If it won't turn on it seems like something more serious that just the touch screen. If I were you I would try to get warranty replacement since its just scratches. If the touch screen were cracked then you'd be out of luck with warranty replacement.
I tried to buy a screen too but I gave up after I found out that the total amount is around 100 Euros to replace the screen and buttons...
And yes, it's weird that you could call your phone, but didn't manage to start it after reset. you definitely have to take it to service.
Try taking out the battery for like 10 minutes and putting it back in. Then Reboot...
Hi all.
I recently came into the posession of one of these awesome devices.
my only problem is that when turned on, the screen comes on but is just pure white.
the device seems to boot up ok as you can hear all the noises in the background, also the digitizer works as the backlight comes on when you touch the screen and you can hear windows mobile clicking away.
could this be the lcd thats broken? or could it be an issue with the mainboard?
anyone have any ideas? or have had the same problem?
i just dont wanna go out and buy a new screen to find out thats not the problem lolol.
(btw i have tried hard reseting multiple times and that dosent seem to be the problem)
thanks all.
Um how du know that you have HR properly if you cannot see the screen, or can you see it on the HR screen?
Also if you can can you see the bootloader, and have you tried a different rom, never know it may work
heya chris, thanks for the reply.
reason i know it has hard reset ok is i used a htc touch next to it to guage where the setup screen (screen calib etc) buttons were and tapped on the digitizer unitll it got to the main screen and reset itself after customisation (took friggin aages to do that lol)
then managed to fudge it to get media player running by using the arrow buttons etc.
sayin that what combo of buttons do youse to HR. ill give it a try if theres another way ;-)
For me its ok and windows key, the one beneath the send and end keys
Then when booted it will say "blah" and press send to restore. Press send then it will take about 15 seconds or so to restore then it reset's and boots up again.
To do the bootloader its the camera button and reset, but i dont know if thats helpful if you cant see the screen!!
Um is it still under warrenty if so go that route and if not try taking it apart and then try to see if any of the screen connectors are loose i think that someone has done this already on here with pictures if you want some help with it.
tried the hard reset again and still met with the same white screen. dang...
as for warranty, its an ex business phone i got through my work so no warranty, and i have since stripped it down 3 times to look for faults.
have tried slotting the ribbon cable in and out of its socket and had no luck.
hmm i would say maybe new motherboard or screen, which you prob already know by now.
Apart from that im out of ideas as to what to say would be a solution for the problem with it or how to fix it without replacing parts
cheers for all your help chris.
i think ill just have to take the dive and order a new screen.
god i hope its the screen lol
