Hello,
Today my touchscreen stop working, i think it is because of humidity, because it has some spots on the screen. I hard reset and now i can't pass the screen aligmente, any ideas how i can solve this?
Has anyone had humidity in teh screen and solve the problem? some kind of cleaning?
For humidity, I don't know what to do, sorry.
My raphhael's touchscreen stopped working some weeks ago. I don't know why, the scrree is perfect: symply it stops working.
Then I try changing its rom, thinking the problem was the old rom. So I hadd my pda stucked at calibration step!
Then I found a file with calibration data for using remote calibration mode.
...just use search on xda-forum!!!
Using this data your pda will pass calibration step... but consider touchscreen will not resuscitate;-)
Oh my pda! After three weeks (it stayed turned off), I turned it on for moving some files and (surprize) touchscreen start working flawlessy
I really didn't understood what happened...

I've attached a zip file. Decompress it on your micro-sd and reboot Raphael.
Good luck;-)
Hey doping11,
I got the same problem with my touch pro.
After a evening walking outdoors i can home and
saw a little humidity at the side of my screen.
I hoped it gone away as it had come but no it stayed.
A week later, just this fryday i had a little spot appearing in my screen and
not a day later my touchscreen didn't work anymore.
The spot seems to create a pressure pont at that part of the touchscreen
so no other part is responding anymore and to make it worse....
The spot seems to get bigger and bigger and bigger.
It's now a spot of 2,5 cm length and about 1cm width.
I tryed multiple opties, letting it dry above a heater,
putting the phone on the other site, pushing the spot ect.
Nothing seems to word...
Does anybody has an idea how to fix that ??
the screen is dead., need a new lcd screen and digitizer., cheeper to by anther phone ,used one that works

OK, heres the deal..
Yesterday I managed to crack the bottom-left corner of my BA screen (damn medkit shifted onto it in my car glovebox ).
As i was checking to see how much of the screen was still responsive (seemed OK, still usable, only the 'New' button and the bottom item of the menu didnt work) the battery died (as in completely, hard reset died)..
So i plug in the power, and start the familiar initial setup. I get to the callibrate screen screen and am unable to continue..
So my question is: Is there any way to bypass the calibrate screen section of the initial setup? Im pretty sure enough of the screen still works for the device to function, if only i could get past this damned calibration screen..
Clearly i cannot bypass it completely, as the screen does need to be calibrated - but is there any way I can recover my BA?
Cheers All

Also, if you can still see the image it means that only the digitizer (touch sensitive part) is broken, and not the screen so it shouldn't cost to much to replace.
And remember - search is your friend! :wink:
This might be a bit toooo late, but just in case some one is stuck with a broken screen as dabs and I were.
I received a k-jam (lucky me, it was for free) with a broken touch screen, it was left uncharged for a long time so after charging it, it entered the unwelcomed welcome mode (you know, align, copy, time zone ...) and there were no way of passing this part of initialization.
I had to do some search over the net, and I found a good article here ((Can I use a PDA that has a broken touch screen)) http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?m=200510 which advised the use of "RemoteCalibration.exe" directly from the pc. This killed the welcome.exe program and I managed to re-use the K-jam again. The only draw back about this way is that I will have to connect the K-jam to a pc every time I hard reset, I hope there is a way to do the same action via mini sd cards.
After that, I installed fakecursor (but I'm looking for a better sw to emulate the touch screen function as this one cancels most hardware buttons on the devise) but at the moment, I'm using all the k-jam's functions.
Hope this would be of help to some one out there
Hi everyone,
Last night my polaris started playing tricks on me. Basically the touch screen is not responsive but the hard buttons all work. For some reason though when I try to do a hard reset (GPS, Internet and reset) it doesn't perform a hardreset. Also I can't put it into boot loader mode
Any suggestions?
Can you try and flash a new ROM?
Yes i've flashed another cooked ROM and till nothing, even D/L official 6.1 ROM and still no touch screen.
I would immediately assume the touch screen is broken but the fact I can't use the hard reset combination (even though the individual buttons work) has got me confused
Hi!
I've the same issue.
This morning everything was fine but, now i can't use the touch screen.
It seems that the "cursors" is always in the upper right corner, but as i move it clicking in the other part of the screen it runs back in that corner.
I'm not able to hard reset, i've tried to do a clearstorage but i'm not able to enter the security code "1234" as i haven't the cotnroll of the screen
Have you solved this problem?
I will let you know shortly but cut a long story short it looks like i broke it
on closer inspection of can see a small dent/scratch on the screen so ordered a new touch screen off ebay. It arrived today so i'll be putting it in shortly so fingers crossed it was actually the problem. I figure the problem was the screen causing a permanent short and hence interupting my attempts at a hard reset
The screen cost about $35 AUD delivered and it took me about 30 minutes to pull the device apart, just have to see how long it takes to get it back together now
I'll post back soon
To me something similar has hapened.
Once i was changing the values of the pressure settings and the screen become unresponsive!
It was quite easy to fix it:
-just press the GPS button and the center button at the same time, then you will enter the menu were you can align the screen and, at the same time, the pressure registry values become as default.
Hope this helps with your problem, good luck with the screen replacement!
It's alive!!!!
Replaced the digitizer (touch screen) and all works again ...
Just to warn you though it isn't for the faint of heart, I thought i'd broke it a couple of times throughout the repair, next time i'll be getting a repair quote first
Congratulations!!
As my polaris is still under warranty i'll send my to the official assistance for the touch screen replacement!
Yesterday i've got my Cruise back from assistanza.. thay have replaced the whole mother board and now the touch screen is working
its a good idea to install my mobiler. this lets you control the device using a pc when the touch screen doesn't work. you can then back up your stuff before sending off for repair.
Hello there,
I have problem with my screen alignment.. ASUS P535. It repeats again and again.. I updated my ROM and nothing happend. Then I've changed digitizer on my LCD. It worked, but for 1 time. When fresh copy of ROM started. Screen alignment was correct. When I've got loaded my WM device restarted and asked to align screen. And nothing happend. And it again repeats.. What should I do now? Maybe is there a way to upload screen align file direct to my ASUS P535? Or any other suggestions..
This happened to my bother-in-law on his omnia. he had it replaced 3 times. 3 devices, 3 bad screens after a few weeks each. The alignment was way off, and if he hard reset.. he got stuck on the alignment screen and could not go past it.
Tapping all 4 corners and then the center should all line up perfect or it will repeat until it's right. If the screen is messed up.. (Not registering the taps accurately) this would cause your problem.
I know you replaced your digitizer, but I think you have bad hardware.
did you notice the screen was not accurate before this happened?
Yes. It was not accurate. Half screen from top was accurate, but other half not.. I had to tap screen ~1cm lower to hit correct 'button'.
Ok.. If hardware is broken. So then which part? Or just I'll take my device to pro to fix it.. If it will be possible..
I also used Remote Screen Alignment software. It solved align problem, WM is working, but everywhere I tap, it taps bottom right corner.
Hello all,
Awhile back the touchscreen on my Sprint TP2 (RHOD400) was off. I click in one spot, it clicks an inch high. Sometimes more, sometimes less..I tried calibrating, but I couldn't even click the center target once. The problem stopped for awhile, then started up again last week. This time the problem is worse. I press in one area, it presses one to two inches away. I have the phone in landscape mode and try to press the upper right hand corner 'x' and it brings up the notification window. Sometimes the lower right part of my screen is completely inaccessible, and I cannot send a text for quite awhile. Other times it is fine, but not fine to the point where I can get super accurate clicks. I was running Mr.X rom, and flashed to Mighty, but this did not solve the problem. I have also cleared storage. I used to run haret android for awhile, would this have caused any problems? I thought I should try that again since I can force the phone to use a calibration.txt file that works for sure, and see if the phone is "fixed" then. I guess my options are...
Try haret android again
task 29?
reflash?
be sad, it's a digitizer issue
(tldr) Touchscreen is off, but not always by the same amount. Reflashing wouldn't cure it and I can't calibrate it. Targets keep going around and around after the reflash, where before I couldn't get them to click even once.
Maybe one of those will fix my problem..I hope so, but I posted here to see if anyone else had heard of an intermittent touchscreen issue like this?
Thanks for reading/help guys.
Can a mod move this to http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=488 Touch pro 2/Tilt forum? I feel as if I posted it in the wrong forum and I'd get more responses in the other. Thanks!
Have you tried pressing the two volume buttons at the same time to get to that calibration screen. Then try to calibrate and see what happens. If this does not work for you then I would think its a hardware issue.
Hi guys
I have this strange behavior going on in my Sentation.
Out of nowhere my phone started to have strange screen behavior... Didn't light up after pressing the power button (had to phone my self in order to get screen on).
The next thing was that suddenly the screen goes to maximum brightness or goes to minimum without any explanation (tried both auto brightness or manual).
After that I noticed that the screen went off when I was using it but when I pressed the left side of it it lighted up and off again... making me think of some kind of bad contact underneath. As I already had changed a broken touch screen for t3 times, and let the phone fall for several times I thought it had to do with some plug out of line...
I disassembled the phone completely and mounted up back again. The thing is that the phone started to freeze every 5 minutes (screen on but completely freezed. I have to pul out battery). Sometimes it freezes even in the recovery menu. I've tried several rom's with full wipe and not installing anything and its all the same.
Some times I still not that the screen goes off during the freeze but when I touch the left side it goes on again, but that doesn't change the freezed state even that I let down the phone for several minutes.
I disassemble the phone again, tried different back cover and different battery (one stock and other extra strength) I tried also all the suggestion related to the small pin in the back not connecting well with the back cover (adding an aluminium foil, pulling the pin out, etc..)
Nothing seams to resolve anything so I have clearly an hardware problem... but I don't know what to replace or where to look the damage!!!
Can anybody help me please?!
Update
I have an update on my problem:
I noticed that when I leave the phone on top of some kind of metal part and don't touch it it works all day without any problem but, as soon as I start to touch the phone, it freezes within minutes!
Could it be some kind of static electrical problem? How to resolve it?
I would apreciate any help
Thanks
