Display problem in 8525

Hi guys,
My phone's display seems to be sliding downwards.. The bottom most part of the screen is slowly showing up on the top.. Seems like its sliding down and going round to the top .. Any ideas why is this so.. is it something to be worried about... or can it be easily fixed..
Cheers..

i was just making sure it was not the rom he had installed, sorry if you thought i was talking about redoing the rom and that would fix it but their is no way a rom could fix that he prolly dropped his phone 1 to many times

Yeah, i have dropped it a number of times.. but never it happened like this. this has been happening since a week now.. I have WM6 Premuim V2 by Dutty.. Its been on my phone since almost a year now.. Recently I had installed WM6.1 S64 Lite.. But that was very unstable and slowed the phone down.. So now I am back on WM6 Premuim V2 by Dutty..
Hope this helps..

You should DL the htc maintenance manual and try reconnecting the lcd cables. I had whitescreen issues and bottom of screen jumping t top so I bit the bullet and opened hermes up. was considerably easier than expected ( though do yourself a fovour and get the torque set (torque 6) ) and had it pulled apart then put back together in less than an hour. there is a lot of unneeded dissassembly in the maintenance manual (just take apart whats needed) but read thoroughly and do step by step and you should have no problem. Hope this helps you out...cheers....

smash it against your face until it does work.
Repeat until it does.

hehehe that will work for sure.

Yep.. it was the issue with LCD.. also my screen would go fully white and nothing would happen after that.. That happens everytime I slide it.. It is found that the slide strip is the issue.. so that has to be replaced for it to solve..

Start Menu problem- opens when tapping screen anywhere

Hi,
Every second or third time I tap my screen wherever it opens the start menu instead of touching the area I want.
Is this a config problem, a WM61 build problem, or maybe a problem linked to my HardSPL, or is it a harware problem?
I had this problem with different ROMS, and different screens.
Thanks for your help !!

Search for TopBar 0.10 it's a fix for big finger on today screen that made pop up the start menu, you can edit it in registry. Go there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370478

@the-uki
I have the same problem on my HTC P3600.
It seems it's because you have dust under the edges of the mobile screen.
Anybody can confirm it ?

I dont believe that it is the dust under the edges of the mobile screen.
Go here: http://www.xiaprojects.com/?project=TopBar
Description from website:
This bug will popup your starmenu when:
you are using "huge" thumb while tapping the display (xt9 sms writing for example)
cpu is overheating (because it's near the diplay area)
Try installing this as this does fix the problem!

I report the same here. Also HTC3600. I just doubt its problem with dust. I guess its the touchscreen or some sort of WM setts.
It happens when I hit larger area. Eg with whole finger. Not just nail, which is OK.
It cant happen with multitouch if Im right.
Soo.. if there is some solution, help someone Its annoying "feature".
edit: Well, now I see sphinxy's answer. Thx, man

problem
I believe your screen got problem... (hardware) or too much dust...

this is a well-known problem and TopBar is the solution...I'm current using it

Yes, I can confirm that topbar works. Here it is http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Tweaks/TopBar-P3600-Screen-Bug-Fix-60642.shtml

everyone, installed Topbar but still have the same problem.
So it must be a hardware problem, and since it happened with several screens, it must be on the motherboard, not the screen itself?
Or maybe it's because of my hardspl (very early version before WM61 came out)?
thanks for your help

I had a similar issue. After reading around I followed someone's advice. I don't know if this will help you but it worked for me:
1. Remove any screen protector you may have on.
2. Place a credit card under the edges of the screen frame and press it upwards slightly. Work your way around all the edges of the screen frame, lifting it up gently to release pressure.
3. Not only can a lot of dust build up under the frame, it can also sometimes bend down so that it actually makes contact with the screen when you press an area elsewhere on the screen.
After 10 minutes or so of bending, the screen suddenly started working again, but it was all out of sync. So, I reset the screen configuration with taps (like you do after a flash). Once I did that it was perfect again and has never troubled me since.
This may not be the problem in your case, but may be worth a try.

Silence....
I'm wondering if you sorted it, in case anyone else has the same issue...?
Mattster.

It seems that the Topbar made it's work for me...We'll see....!

Great. Very pleased for you!
Matstter

topbar works for me

All,
topbar did not work for me, and I ended up buying a new screen on ebay;
installed new screen, and, problem gone!
Not all screens on ebay are good quality, careful!

Touch Pro2 -The Good, the Bad and the Niggly

So far on the first day:
GOOD:
+It's shiny,shiny new!
+Screen -bright, responsive
+Keyboard -easy to use, and nice to have one back after a spell with a Cruise
+Touch Flo -really improved IMHO, fast and easy to use
+Very easy to set up
+Shape/form factor/weight very suitable for me
BAD:
-No FM radio -*****NOW FIXED! with many thanks to adolfotregosa
-TV out means that -not RGB signal out, which I use on an Athena* to work on PCs remotely via RDP and a 17" monitor. So I should have read the fine print as availalbe cable only supports video.
NIGGLY:
Weather tab resets to another city
Soft reset requires cover removal.
OTHER:
While it's a nice neat aero-dynamic shape I wonder how many hinge problems there will be
*on the Athena I used the TV out cable to plug in a full USB PC keyboard and PC monitor with a Bluetooth mouse which gave me close to a desktop experience when working remotely in clients' offices and managing my own hardware back at the ranch

I've seen a vid where they did use RGB on a TV

USE Touch Pro2 with TV
The YouTube shows the TV running of the RCA pugs not RGB pug.
I still want a Touch Pro2 when the Unlocked USA or Telstra version comes out with 850/2100.
Thank you,

Yes, I'd still like to see if I can get a short, straight forward cable that can produce VGA out. I suppose HDMI might work on a newer monitor

I still don't understand how this was an issue. I am making a YouTube video about this. My friend ordered his Touch Pro 2 FROM EUROPE and had it shipped to the USA and he still got FM RADIO!!
He did not have to install a cab or anything. Maybe this was a manufacturing fluke? It comes WITH FM RADIO built in.

The missing radio might be a rights issue in some countries.

Probably. My youtube video shows that the Imported TP 2 has FM radio installed on it.

Minor gripes with Telstra TP2.. suggestions welcome!
We have had Touch Pro 2 with Telstra for a bit over a week now and have a few minor gripes.
What happened to the Flash for the camera... missing..
Also FM Radio - but doesnt work with Bluetooth headphones - requires HTC wired headphones to work! Seriously!
How can I make the battery indicator appear easily? I want it on every screen if possible!!
Programs-- All programs.. How can i skip the Programs (which are annoyingly preset with non-customisable icons such as Whereis etc) and go straight to All Programs.
On the plus side - this phone has an awesome battery life.. much more impressive than my Tytn II.. however it does seem to end every single running program when you click out, whether you like it - or not.. saves batteries but wastes so much time having to retrieve them.

I believe the HTC wired headphones are needed because the wire acts as an FM antenna lead.

Soft reset requires cover removal.
excuse me, for soft reset no need to remove the cover, I use this since I had the Kaiser http://www.mediafire.com/?nme2pgmzjxh it's called tastoreset.cab you must install and then everything is ok
you can also use this http://teamtir.blogspot.com/search/label/ROM per Kaiser (thanks to team TIR)

I love my TP2, had it for a month now and I have to say no flash or light with the camera is most probably my biggest disappointment with the device. Unless you have a LOT of light, the picture exposure is really bad, almost useless.
Bad call from HTC.

I think what Tomo is trying to say is that if your device hangs and the OS/software is unresponsive, then you have to remove the stylus then the cover to soft reset. Historically on HTC devices, you could just poke the stylus into the reset hole at the bottom and away you go. It's an annoyance, that's for sure, and another strange design decision.
Of course if your device is responsive, you don't even need to load software as you suggest - just hold the power button down to power off then power back on (essentially a soft reset)

Yes you are right... unfortunately my English isn't very sliding... I haven't understood the question but I use that cab often, ussually when the device slows its function

Got mine today here my good and bad on its 1st day
Good
Clear & bright screen
Touchflo 3D2 is fast/great
keyboard is superb
call quality is great
slide out keyboard is good (not tilting)
Bad
wobbling screen ( might send it back for replacement )
No flash
No 3.5mm jack
should include Tv-out cable in the package
Its a very nice phone... i cant wait to add a lil bit more good stuff on it!.
stepping outside symbian is not bad at all...winmo is nice while waiting for their symbian foundation OS.

Can't you drill a little hole in the back cover for the soft-reset button?

This is interesting.
from TMOUS TP2 manual.
13.7 Resetting Your Device
Performing a soft reset
Perform a soft (normal) reset to clear all active program memory and shut down all active programs. This is useful when your device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work is lost.
To perform a soft reset
Use the stylus tip to press the RESET button at the right panel of your device.
Your device restarts and displays the Home screen.

Help! i think i have a bad device

Hi
i have been getting trouble with my TP2 , since no1 reacted on my previoous post i decided to do a hard reset, i figured the "turn off" on moving back the keyboard under the screen, hoping to reset any things that might cause this. as it can just be a bad device and now i most likely need another
Or can it be a virus? i installed some cabs that were floating around on this forum and after some time i got the issue , when moving back from landscape to portrait , the device turns off instantly
what can this be?
advice needed

i supose this happens when you have keyboard open and close to go back to potrait. yep dodgy or faulty device........... i'd return it. ribbon fault i'd say mate. no virus would do that to phone. return it for a new one and tell them its a faulty ribbon. unfortunately these things do happen.
now have you installed g-sensor or flip it? if this happens with keyb closed then its something you did or installed or not set right!

i have not installed those last 2 programs
programs isntalled were
Facebook app
coreplayer
NFS underground
and some theme cabs
well tomorrow first thing il go and try to get a new one
ribbon fault your saying? what is that if I might ask?
il be sure to notify them
thanks for your quick reply
Alsa86

these have nothing to do with htc touch pro2 itself dude!
it's about the rom you installed in it,so pls return to your technician to get a good rom!
it's like you have super good pc,but the windows xp you installed is crap,then your pc will always get this problem and that......
FYI: rom means: OS(wm 6.5 for example)+Radio(GSM etc)+Extrom(touchflo 3d etc)

D855: Top of touch screen not working

Hi,
Since I flashed my LG G3 with LG flash tool, the top touch screen area doesn't work, making me unable to use the notification area.
I tried with a touch screen test application and about half centimer is not working in the top.
Somebody already encounter this?

Hey, you mean a part of screen is simply dead? I've had a very similar problem, only with my phone it was the middle of the screen, like on the video i recorded - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_R1aGVUWhs
If your phone is on warranty, send it for repair, because it's probably faulty digitizer. If not - there are 2 options. 1 - pay for the repair of the damaged digitizer (or it could be simply not well connected, but you won't be able to tell yourself because the lcd and digitizer are not separetable, at least in theory, because it is possible, but highly unsafe). The other option is what I decided to do - you need to get a lighter with a one click button and do the same as this guy does - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VERfODYHX3g. It worked for me, at least it works temporary, but I heard if you do it a couple of times it will work permanently

Thanks guy!!!
It worked with me too!

I don't know if it's related but my FM radio is not working anymore. No sound, search find inexistant radio stations.
