Hi all. Im hoping someone here has experience or can point me in the right direction.
I just installed a Joying 6.2 inch tablet with physical buttons in my car. At first for roughly an hour everything seemed to work. Then I lost access to thephysical softouch home button and then I lost access the the navigatiom button. They simply stopped responding to input. The screen portion itself still responds fine and recalibrating the screen didnt fix it nore did a reset with the pin hole. Has any body run into this and if so how did you fix it. I hate to send itback asbesides this it works fine.
Thanks for any and all help.

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.
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?
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
Hey guys,
Oh i dunno whays happened. Everything worked fine yesterday then i went to sleep. Next day the side buttons stopped working. The touch screen still works but the side capacitive buttons stopped.
It doesnt even work when i boot into clockwork mod
I have so far tried:
Reboot did nothing
Put calibration.ini file in root directory
Put calibration.ini in sdcard2
Put calibration in sdcard root
Reboot
Didnt fix it.
I got it ebay as i live in australia so warranty may be difficult.
I am using button saviour to get by for now but until i can get the side buttons to work i can no longer navigate clockwork mod because the home button is the select button.
I'm usibg vegantab b5.1 at the moment.
Any help would be really appreciated!
BAM
If you haven't, you might want to try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934500
Just tried it but still no joy. Looks like the side buttons are on a different touch interface to the rest of the screen. I guess it could be worse. Vegantab is a nice rom to be stuck on.
I wonder if there is a way to make clockwork mod work with a usb keyboard?
Woohoo! It's working again! Just in time for honeycomb too
I searched and searched for similar issues and finally read about either draining the battery or opening up to find the hidden reset button.
I opted to drain the battery.
Now I'm still not going to rubber stamp that draining the battery fixed it but when I did finally plug it in and fire it up I found the buttons worked again.
Another theory I have is that viewsonic might have some poor soldering. The reason I suggest that is because in Australia we've had some stinkin hot days here at 42degrees Celsius with high humidity. So it wouldn't surprise me for a dry solder to become temperamental under these conditions.
Anyways happy ending for now. Well hopefully it'll keep running until a reliable honeycomb rom turns up for gtab hey
I have encountered a similar problem. The side buttons stopped working after a few days of use. They do work sometimes randomly. Is there a reliable solution to this problem?
I tried calibration.ini, and the buttons worked once. They have stopped working again.
Hello.
The touch fuction of screen of my HTC stopped working from nothing but the display works and seem to be operable by keys, but the keyboard is blocked and I can only set the volume up and down. I tried several times to do hard reset, but it always only do soft reset. What can I do?
Thank you very mouch
Matteo
nobody can help me? I've now re-installed the ROM, but it still doesn't work.
Try to lift up the protective coating of screen.
well polaris touchscreens are kinda delicate and gets damaged easily
good point is that they are cheap and easy to fix, mind only the right model
I've solved the problem by changing the touch screen.
Thank you
