please pleasE help me
my o2 xda¡¡ always start with align screen

Happened to mine too. The touchpad was busted, you can't get past the align screen as the touchpad isn't accepting any input.

same problem here,are there some one can help?

make sure you press the + sign perfectly in middle

omg try to understant the ques.
the same prob happens to me..... the align screen appears many times to me and it wil reinstall new OS. so then it looks new ans lost all old settings & mess, contacts.
how to stop this bug?

yeap i now have the same problem, dont know what happen to my touch screen.. i can press the upper section windows bar, signal and all kind that is on top
can anyone help please?

Like it was said before, your touchscreen is busted ... in my case, i've change my lcd and touchscreen with one bought on ebay. But before to change your lcd, you can try to align your screen with your finger, not with your stylus.

Just put an empty welcome.not file in your SD card.
It should bypass the alignment screen.
If it doesn't, then do one alignment run,hit the power button, and turn it back on. It should work then.
Beware, though, that the screen will be unaligned. Manage to get to the alignment again, and repeat the process (hitting power button thing). Then it'll be aligned correctly (at least in my case it does...)

As Huefu posted the touchpad is dead my friend. There is another topic about the touchscreen being dead that I have posted on. You can buy one on ebay but beware there are two different screen types. So dismantle first to check the connectors on the back of your screen to make sure you get the right replacement.
Your looking around £30 and some patience. It's tricky to take the phone apart and reassemble. You can google for the XDA/MDA service manual, this will show you how to take it apart
Good luck

2 Years Ago i´ve got the Same Problem....I opened my Himalaya
and there was a bigger Piece of Tobacco (I´m Rolling my Cicarettes by myself)between the Screen and the Housing- you couldn´t see it from Outside.
...for my case this was the solution !
and this Year my Himalaya is getting 5 Years old
I would try this first before Buying a new Screen
...but ...as honosuseri mentionened before
There different Models with different Connectors
(i think 2 or 3 different Connectors)
watch out ! DOOD!

Erratic touch screen? Please help!

I have a T-Mobile Pocket Phone Edition,
It's had a rough life but as kept going for over 3 years now.
For the last year I would have to realign the screen 2 or 3
times a week but over the last few months it keeps getting worse.
Sometimes the screen won't respond to anything anywhere,
then after I tap it a few times boom works fine.
Sometimes I'll tap on the “Ok” and the “Start menu” will activate.
Sometimes drawing a line up the center of the screen will end up
shooting all over the screen.
And sometime it will work perfectly!
I thought the problems were to erratic to be hardware so
I hard set after awhile it started again,
So I hard set and installed a different ROM after a coupe hours
the problem was back.
Also sometimes the align program will get stuck in a
loop that doesn't end.
I've searched but can't find an answer? Anyone have an idea?
I've already taken it a part once but couldn't see how to get
any further after I toke the back panel off? Please help!
WOW nobody? So no one was heard of this problem before?
Can anyone direct me to directions on taking apart the Wallaby?
Thanks <><
It's a problem with touch screen. You should check (and fix) it.
Maybe it is necessary to press well screen to the motherboard. (Sorry my english).
Ok, Can you tell me where that connection is?
Thanks
Toke everything apart, found the connection, cleaned everything (w/ screen wipe)
put it all back together. Still have the touch problem and now the backlight won't work!
I've found if I press the unit in my hand the touch panel works right,
I don't think it's a lose connection to the main board so I think it must be
one on the main board.
If anybody thinks they want it for parts let me know! :?

Mirrored Display
hello XDA community,
I have here an imate Jasjar which after a screen upgrade is displaying the image reversed. It did not begin like this,
Upon first booting up the device after screen upgrade, all was fine, screen displayed normally. About a week after this, the screen began flickering, not on/off, but instead, reversing the image shown on the screen. (a mirror) effect. I did not know what to make of this. I delt with it best I could.
A day or two after this flickering began, the screen began to remain in this reversed image mode, which I did not enjoy. The same day, I had dropped the JJ into a tub ( a pretty hard fall), but somehow, by the grace of god, the water failed to enter the inside of the Jasjar.
After the fall, I had noticed that the screen had stopped its flickring antics and remained normal for about a week and a half. It is now displaying a reversed image only.
I now am unsure of what to do, I searched throughout the XDA forums and discovered that performing a hard reset should repair this.
I suppose my main question is, is there a registry tweak I can perform to revert the displayed image back to its original state
Many thanks to all who respond.

as far as I know, both of your devices are probably dead. Back in the time I was repairing old Ipaq's the mirrow effect was epically called "The mirrow of death" and meant that the display controller (a chip) has failed.
I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think you have many chances to bring them back. Maybe this is not your case, but anyway chances are slim.
thats actually a very interesting idea. If you can mirror them via software, you can fool the device into working again
solution ?
Any solution to this yet ?
Is anyone working on that brilliant idea of that mirroring software ?
I've been having the same problem for almost 6 months now. But for some reasons I am surviving with my O2 XDA EXEC. Now, I can hand my brick to friends without being concerned about my personal messages being read.
However, I have found something. When I charge my phone with a motorola charger, while on charger, the screen flips back to normal. So, my best bet- it is actually a tweeny weenie IC not doing what it is supposed to do.
mirror solution!

Does anyone know how to make the PDA do this, I've searched everywhere for a software solution but to no avail.
I want to add a second screen to my PDA (piggybacking on the existing screen) but with an inverted display. This way I will have a normal touchscreen display for entering data and an inverted display for HUD use.
I'm aware that when this happens as a fault it is normally due to a loose display connection causing one of the outer contact to come loose, but I'd need to know which 'wire to cut' to force this fault.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

screen broken?

Hello all the wizards of this site!
I own a Touch cruise for abt 1,5 years. Have always been a fan of this site and used cooked ROM's from the very beginning. Now the problem with my device.
I took it from my pocket and put it on a table. Afterwards when taking the phone I had a missed appointment on my screen. Trying to dismiss it I noticed the screen didn't react to any touches. So at first I thought the device had hanged. Soft reset but nothing..I couldn't even dismiss the alert as the screen didn't react. That's the first time I thought the screen might be broken. So I did some research from the internet and found that a Hard Reset might help. Tried hard resetting but couldn't do it. I'm pushing the Internet Explorer and GPS buttons (lower softkeys) and pushing the stylus to reset button but nothing...just a soft reset. So I thought I'd install a new ROM as that should also erase everything from the devices memory...nothing. The new rom is installed but I'm now stock in the screen alignment Touching the screen doesn't work where the cross is..as I run my finger all across the screen it seems that lower left part is kind of responsive as the small cross moves when I touch the lower left part of the screen. Now I noticed that the screen has an oily line in the center of the screen...
so what am I to do? Screen broken? Why can't I hard reset then? The warranty of course is for 2 years but I'm quite sceptical if this goes under warranty..they can alway say that something has hitted the screen or smthng.
Any knowledge and help is appreciated..
thank you in advance

TMobileUK TP stuck on align screen after hardreset/flashing from WM 6.5

My Raphael doesn't go forward from the align screen since I hard reset on Mystic 6.5 lite ROM. Now I have tried all stock ROMS with the same problem. I Will try to best describe the problem in a chronological order.
1. Had stock ROM latest with TF3D2
2. Flashed to Mystic ROM 6.5 lite, took three cycling of align screen to get through
3. After 24 Hrs lock screen got stuck, no sliding action worked,
4. Performed soft reset, phone boots up to lock screen again.
5. After several tries decided to hard reset
6. Normal boot up until Align Screen, The align screen markers keep rotating on tap, but doesnt pass through to home screen or customization.
The phone connects to active sync, and I can synchronize, flash roms normally.
I like to think that 6.5 ROM changes some screen sensitivity settings, and this is not allowing the screen to align normally. Somehow these settings could be stuck,
I request one of you experts to guide me in getting my expensive phone back. FYI, I have no warranty, I am not even in UK, I have purchased this phone over Ebay, I have flashed around 15 ROMs since my 2 month ownership of the phone, with no problems.

Done that and it successfully skips the alignment section...but.....
It now recognises touches but The touch screen takes wrong inputs, some times it doesnt, how can I recalibrate, without going into align screen, or can I go there too??
Where do I go from here

Hi, if the align screen markers are not accepting your input, it is more than likely something is interfering like a screen protector or case putting pressure on the screen. (or a digitizer failure)
the only reason it would not accept the inputs is if the data it's receiving is too far from the actual point of the crosses.. it makes you keep cycling through until it's within a level of tolerance..

Thanks for that ready info, really appreciate it.
Though it does give me some promise, but as you know I cant use the touch screen accurately, so installing a cab or changing the registry is near impossible scenario, unless those can be done via a computer. Right now, wherever I click on the screen, the notification area comes up with battery, network strenght info etc.
Do you know of any way how we can clean up the entire TouchPro (waever it means) and make a new flash. I presume flash does that, but then again I think there is some leftovers from previous ROM, as mentioned in the "Flashing your first GSM ROM" sticky, where it is recommended to hard reset immediately after flashing.
All your help required to save the phone and my money going down the drain. It just hurts that I was so much in love with this phone, since using Wizard for 3 years. Cant bear to lose this fight.

Thanks DA_G for considering to help me overcome this.
At the moment I have no screen protector on, I had one on for two weeks, and as it wasnt a good fit and collecting dust underneath, I threw it out arnd 2 days back. I have always used the normal sleeve case from HTC.
If you say there is no other reason for this behavior other than hardware issue, then I have no options left. You mention that the digitizer may be broke, couldnt it be that the software part of the digitizer is broke and we can rectify that.
After using wizard for three years, and that too very roughly, I have like dropped it several hundred of times, and not facing a problem, I refuse to believe HTC quality has dropped down so low. This touch pro was used most carefully for arnd 2 months only.
I still ask you to give me more options before going for hardware replacement. As of now I will remove welcome.not, hard reset and try aligning as long as I can bear it.
hi you should be able to use the keypad to cycle through... is it? i use to have tytn II. so u can install the fix or do a reg edit with it.

I have tried it with the keypad, unfortunately, it doesnt work as well as one would want it to ,,,,unlike the wizard I had.
The biggest problem you face here is to click the left and right soft key commands like OK, UP.
Wizard had the hardware keys for that as a fall back but not here.
I am at my wits end,.....wasnt that long!
Look up Pocket Controller @ Handango (it's expensive, but the demo's great). It allows you to run your ppc remotely. It has a pretty trick regeditor. It's a high octane version of active sync. You can probably align the screen with it (Settings>System>Screen). It shows you a big pic of your touch pro screen on your pc, and you can click things with your mouse.

Well I didnt try that but I used the My Mobiler, well the catch is you cant align your screen using these softwares, you can do all rest, install cabs everything, except align screen.
I believe the hardware digitizer has given up on me, I have just dropped it at the service center, who will ship it to another one, then they will quote for the repairs. So i keep my fingers cross until next week and see how they try to rip me off.
Did you revert to stock rom, radio and spl before you took it in? I hope so.

I reverted to only stock rom and radio, not the SPL.
As it is I havent given it in warranty, so I assumed it wont effect either ways.
It's weird you started having the problem after you removed the screen protector. Why did you remove it? Did it come off easily, or did it stick a little and give you problems? Do you think you might have messed up the screen when you were taking it off?

I dont think that my removal of screen protector could have hurt the screen. As it is the screen protector was stuck on loosely.
The protector I had was a little hard kind and thick kind as opposed to the usual thin layer. I really didnt like it.
I am still of the opinion that WM6.5 rom had changed the sensitivity or some other parameter of the screen to an extent where the hardware couldn't cope. As I first faced the problem with align screen repeating 3 times when I installed that.
Within 24 hrs my digitizer had given up on me. Hence I think, if I the ROM can be completely sanitized and then flashed, the digitizer should work.
I am in no way an expert on these things, but I am just trying to apply some logic.

HTC Fuze Alignment issue
Okay I have an HTC Fuze right, and I did a hard reset on it because the touchscreen was freezing, and working in only certain parts of the screen, so now Everything seems good with the touchscreen except the align screen part.. itwon't let me go past this stage, and Ive been at it for 2 days so can someone please help me out with my issue, I would sincerely appreciate it and thanks.
Dude, there is nothing much that you can do. There are ofcourse ways to skip the calibration screen and get to the desktop, but the functionality of the screen is allready gone.
If you are lucky enough to have a warranty for the thing, its time to use it now !!! If not, then start budgeting for a new phone.
As I didnt have a budget, I am using the phone in this condition since around a year and now thinking to replace it with Nokia N900.

[Q] VZW TP touch screen not working

so, i just got this phone about a week ago, and its already seen several near death experiences with all the flashing ive been doing. but this one takes the cake. all i did was put the phone in my back pocket, with the screen facing in, sat down for half a second, and when i took it out, the screen had been pressed so hard that the top layer of the resistive screen was stuck to the bottm, and not registering anything. i knew the first step to fixing it was getting it unstuck. but it still wounldnt work. did a hard reset. and now im stuck at my initial tap screen to set up phone screen, and i cant do anything. this is clearly a hardware problem. can anyone help me out?
lemme be the first to say it man, ouch lol
sorry about your screen, i fear the only way to fix would be to find another screen assembly, if you search the threads for the cdma raphael(herman) i beleive there is a detailed teardown of the phone that may or may not help you resolve your problem. here is a quick link to something along the lines of what your looking for but not really too detailed : http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/HTC-Touch-Pro/787/1
ive done that, but usually break the screen completely. i have an extra us cellular tp that has a bad keyboard and front panel buttons but screen and touch works. i just use it as a extra battery charger. has some scratches, but works. ill send it to you if you send me your old one. the screen has a double-stick tape that holds it to the frame around the edges. let me know if your able to tear it down and think you can put it back together again. its a pretty straight forward process though.
Apply packing tape to the screen and pull as hard as you can.
