hey guys
have been a reader more than a poster on this awesome site..
but i have run into some trouble :/
within the past week, everytime my phone gets slightly hot, the screen alignment goes totally out.. like really out..
for example i manage to open the notes app..
if i tap the extreme left side, the draw tool will draw in either the center, or even far right.. its extremely frustrating.
Happens mostly after a phone call, using gps, or plugging phone into usb/charging..
im using Panosha's 2.2 full
Radio .05
I have tried loading the original HTC rom that came with the phone... no difference..
any help would be greatly appreciated
oh, and i do re-align... 10-15 times a day..
when the phone is cool, it runs like a dream

When you have the same probs with the htc original rom, then it has nothing to do with a cooked roms :-(

another example of what mine is doing pretty much to the T
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhQIyqnTkS4&feature=user
if anyone may have a solution.. please let me know asap.. as i will try taking it in on saturday
thanks guys
damn, mine does the same from time to time!
does anybody have a solution?
did a replacement fix the problem?
unfortunately i havnt had a chance to take it in yet, but i have logged the problem with my service provider..
the problem occurs alot more when i used panosha's rom/s
with the default (and now alphazero) the problem seems less frequent, but definitely still happens..
happened badly yesterday when i used gps to get my girlfriend to a casting, but switched on car A/C and after 5 minutes it was cool again *shrug*
its really annoying though
will let u know when i finally get to taking it in, unless u get there first
Hi there, I have the exactly problem what you had. Whenever the machine is hot, it becomes mad. Any solution could be reslove the problem?
It really sounds like a hardware issue... When you return the phone to the store please flash back to the original stock rom (for warranty purposes )
same problem
i am getting he same alignment problem.i do it many times a day but still tapping somewhere on screen taps the other way.very difficult to dial phone numbers

i dont think its an hardware issue,as after i align it works fine for few hours and then i have to align again to make the taps work acurately.........i have heard there is a cab file for it.if any one can post it here.........................or make a cab file so that clicking it makes the alignment as it was default with the new phone
It is a hardware issue. the screen somehow (usually when carried in front pants pocket) will get pressed and SHIFTED. Then screen pushes against the side-cover and this fools the touch-sensitivity of the screen. Try yourself - try to shift screen to one or other side, and directly after it will be better. it's still a service matter though. Send it for repair.
This is a known issue. You need to exchange the unit for a new one.
hey guys...
so late last year i took the phone in and it spent 3 weeks at leaf (HTC distributer here is south africa)
i got the phone back, turned it on in the store.. and guess what... still screwed..
i threw my toys to say the least and got a brand new phone..
the new phone was 110% up until 2 weeks ago..
it started doing the same damn thing (to a lesser extent)
i have found that its a connection problem..
the touch pad is very all over the place if used normally (so basically its unusable)
but if i hold down the top left of the phone(pushing down just above the start menu) with my left hand and use my fingers on my right.. the phone works perfectly again..
does anyone know how to fix this?
its so frustrating, especially knowing im going to be without it for 3 weeks or more again
hmmm ...
i heard that the radio-part is for managing the curcuits.
try an other rom.
but i cant give garanty, i hard it only.
Hi all,
I have got Miri WM 6.5 ROM on my HTC Touch HD, and I am experiencing a few problems here.
Firstly, the phone keypad is messing up, I have a picture attached to show this, and is very hard to make calls, and cannot make calls properly.
Secondly, when someone rings me, the menu is really strange, and a lot of things are missed out, which all is really confusing me.
Everything else, e.g the menu, is working absoloutely fine.
Anyone know a way to fix this problem?
Also, have a look at the picture attachment on this post, the battery bar at the top is strange, anyone know how to fix that?
Really appreciate it.
Hi might i suggest posting on the thread in question where you got the rom from, others might be able to assist you there, I have not tried this rom myself but if you havent already tried, maybe a hard reset may rectify these problems.

I've been having this problem with all my roms includeing Cyanogen,Hero Madaco 1.5.1-1.5.4 and Jac-Ski i have no idea whats wrong but they all seem to hang on me im using
Tmobile G1
with the latest radio and spl
Cyanogen 1.4 + JF Recovery
Transcend 4Gig Micro SDHC class 6 card
Partitions are
fat32 0 3400 3.4Gigs
Ext3 3400 3900 500Megs
Linux-Swap 3900 3964 64Megs
and they all Freeze/Hang/Lock up on me to the point where my phone dont respond as in it will freeze up and it wont respond to the Menu button or any other button on the phone and sometimes the lights stay on sometimes i put it into sleep mode and the screen just stays black when i try to wake it up with the menu button so anyone have any ideas or anything of that matter?.... cause i dont kno whats going on so let me kno thx people
bump i kno someone has to kno something about this problem
i remember hearing of something like this a long time ago (in xda terms, like around cm3.4 (or something like that) it was called a "coma" then, where the phone would freeze up and not respond to trying to be woke up from sleep/standby mode. this thread may help you some. it documents a lot of people experiencing the "coma" issue.
ok man thx alot man srsly
i don't think that it would be amazingly relevant anymore but you may find some useful info in it.
yea i didnt really find anything there so i dont kno what to do now....it just said the new rom didnt have the problem so it was left in the past so i dont kno now....pretty gay
if you could grab a logcat of it when it happens then you could give it to cyanogen and see if there is anything he can do for it.
ya i alrdy send him a message so i can see if he's ganna do that for me thx dude now that i kno the name of the issue "Coma" im sure i can get some kinda help thx alot dude this has been like this for at least a week and i though it was my phone...i was ganna go get a new one...thx thou dude

Yesterday when i take my milestone out of my pocket I noticed that the Settings touch button(second from left) wasn't working, every other "bar" button was working fine, except that one. Then I noticed there's a vertical line, that goes from the Setting button to the top of the phone that doesn't work. It simply stopped working... Some1 Help me pliz. It' s a Software or Hardware problem, and if it's a Software problem this thing will solve my problem??

same with my phone, may be digitizer was broken
Are u using a custom Rom or the Original ? My touchscreen had a similar issue, and reflashing the ROM solved it. It took 2 flashes, but the issue is gone.
Dont know if yours is the same, but if the issue still remains, atleast it can confirmed that its a hardware issue and not a software one.

I have used CM6 on my phone, but when i got this issue, i made my phone back to 2.1. The problem is still standing.
uh oh. Looks like a Hardware issue then. U still might wanna take to the store and get it verified. Is it still under warranty ? Any possibility of an exchange ?

Havent seen any such issues.. Thanks god..
it's similar to my problem, I had the back button through the top of the screen not working..
I have tried flashing, factory resets, and whatever I can do, but still no changed,, so I tried to ask the closest customer service and they said that it's the touchscreen panel must be thrown away to get the new one..
is it really true ?
please share this problem,,
thanks,,

Hi all!
I was having the same problem with the column of numbers 3, 6, 9 of dialpad. Looking for the solution in google, I have read that this problem is probably caused due to the moisture... so yesterday I turned of my milestone, removed the battery, SIM and SD cards and left it inside an enviromental chamber @ +70 celsius degress for 1 hour and guess what? Problem solved!
I hope that it works for anyone that are having the same problem!
Regards
Lucas

I have had good success with a combo of rice (inside a ziplock bag) to absorb humidity and/or a toaster over at the lowest bake setting.
Worked on MANY electronic devices over the years.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App
Same problem here. I've solved it by changing the digitizer (ebay 25 euros). Works fine now but in the mean time I change for a Desire HD... good by Milestone !
If you decide to change the digitizer, be patient, fixing th Milestone is not an user friendly task But if you take your time it's ok !
ive the same problem, and i believe that's because of moisture. because every time when its raining except the problem with right side of screen im not even able to use the phone touch screen doesn't work at all and the phone just does something by itself! this issue started with small vertical bar from right side of screen and it growing everyday now im not able to use right side of screen till home button.
i want to know do i have to replace touchscreen or i can fix it with something to absorb humidity?
thanks in advance
i am finding it difficult to chat with someone because when i type 4 or 5 words some keys are automatically pressed. in my case they are "s" and "d".
this is also sometimes experienced in menu options and random opening of applications from homescreen.
please help me...
and this is hardware issue or software?
any help would be greatful.
EDIT : the same issue was experienced in lg optimus one (p500) and was fixed by a bug fix
please reply..
it happens sometimes but only when im using at launcher other than the stock....never happens with the stock....but its very rare nd it goes when i lock the screen...
never happened wid me.. may be its software problem.. as if it had been a hardware, then u wud be facing problems in other application and games too..
Me too facing same problem.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
I've other problems concerned the touchscreen or touch-wiz or else.
- Sometimes a call rings, when I slide the finger on the touchscreen to answer the call what happens is that the call stays on but the phone keep vibrating and I can't do nothing but turn the phone off. The call can't be heard.
- Also sometimes when I hang a call because the other side not answer I touch the screen but nothing happens. The call stays on. Solution: Power off the phone.
- Other times when in a call after 40 seconds the call stays on but the sound off.
I did a factory reset and at this moment I don't have any extra app instaled, to see if these problems persists,
What I need to know is if someone had this problems with this model.
I updated my friend's SGA to Villain ROM and she is facing the same issue.. Its a touch calibration problem.. Unable to use the keyboard, it keeps typing something else. I am upgrading to the Code ROM.

this issued is being faced in every 2.3 rom by me
Trying ur original stock fw if problem still persists then something wrong with ur touchscreen hardware and its calibration.
As other users r not facing this problem this is not bug.
stock rom is working fine without any problem but as I flashes european firmware this problem starts...
One of the likely causes is the CPU hitting maximum, and thus the touchscreen doesn't respond I am getting this sort of thing a lot more often.
Im also having the same problem in every rom i try.... n it really annoying when i must retype the message again n again... can someone help me? how to recalibrate the touchscreen? thanks before
