Hi,
Maybe your alignment is out. ie your screen taps are off the mark.
Realign your screen (maybe with a hard reset like they say).
Just a thought

On a side note, I noticed a little "backdoor," if you will, when the initial Windows Mobile calibration and tutorial starts up - press the OK button and it will take you straight to the Today screen, but since the touchscreen hasn't been calibrated, it performs totally wacky when you touch the screen.
Of course, you can use the keyboard to get to the Settings panel and go to the Screen applet and recalibrate it from there.
thanks for helping but the thing is that firstly
when it says tap on the screen to setup ur windows mobile phone the screen taps do no work
secondly i press the okay button and the screen that i see in front is not my usual desktop ofcourse with the touch screen not working still
thridly i donnot seem to find the settings and all the rest on the screen because the widows is not setup on the xda :S

do a HARD RESET... push the little buttons on the keyboard that are dashes. They are to the left and right of the send and end call buttons. While holding those down reset the device.
So to repeat... DO A HARD RESET> am i missing something?

Faulty screen?
i had same problem, just had to many hard resets, also take the battery out for an hour or two
Never really used the cube bvefore, but having played with a T-Mobile Touch, I wanted to try t a bit more...
Is it possible to just assign the cube to a button so that it just starts up when you press a button, or do you always need to slide on the screen?
Yesterday I bought a i780 and now I am trying to flash a WM6.1 image. My problem is the maybe simplest step.
I cant get to the "detect" screen on t he phone. I have no idea which is the "function key". Following the instructions I pressed Enter and the Shift key on the Left side of the keyboard. Holded it together with the power button. But my mobile just starts up as usual.
When I press and hold the Red and Green (Take call, Drop call) button together with the power button, I get to a format screen. In this screen Mirage dont gives me any response.
Help

It's the white and black key; the one that lets you choose numbers on the keyboard (the one directly opposite to the enter key).
I'm running the latest nfsfan 6.5 rom
I'm not talking about S2U2, I'm talking about what everybody with 6.5 seems to have when they turn their phone screen on. A lock slider near the top of the screen located in the center that you can slide either right or left to unlock.
I've looked around my setting but see no mention of it so I'm using S2U2 in the meantime.
Start button, then "Lock" at the bottom of the screen?

start>setting>system>lock> put any kinda lock you want.. >lock in 0 min.> ok> turn off screen> turn it on
You could also try csdevctrl. It locks the phone when after the device has waken up.

You can also hold down the end key which will bring up a quick menu.
My friend installed 6.5 and his lock screen pops up everytime he turn the screen on. He said it was a very basic instal, no extra cabs or customization.
When I do
start>setting>system>lock> put any kinda lock you want.. >lock in 0 min.> ok> turn off screen> turn it on

it forces me to put in a password. That is not what i want and it's time consuming.
Start > Lock - works but i wish it would just require a slide whenever i turn the screen on
wtf
the way i use it is to hold the End button and automatically locks the screen, that is the best way i have found to use it without having to input a password to unlock, plus i dislike to have 3rd party software to do stuff that the OS should be capable of doing in first place.

Download the WWE-Chobit Company SmartLock 1.7E.cab and install. This will show up in your settings and give you some check boxes that will make life easy.
I tired Cho's app, it messed up my touch keypad.
Had to remove to be able to type letters instead of symbols.
No joy here.

How to activate slide to unlock in winmo 6.5
You can have the screen lock and unlock it with or without a password. Having it with a password lets the phone lock automatically after a specified amount of time. Conversely, without a password you must lock it manually to display the lock screen with only slide to unlock to access the phone.
Just try de-selecting the "Prompt if unused for" box in the lock screen settings:
Step 1: Start menu/settings/lock [Then clear the checkbox]
The password "type" grays out and the "password" and "confirm" boxes clear. Hit OK and it will allow you to unlock without a password by sliding to unlock. The only thing missing is automatically locking after a certain period of time; so you have to manually lock each time by pressing Start, and the Left soft-key at the bottom of the screen (Lock).
You can also change your power settings to make this process a little more automatic. You can have the screen turn off automatically without having to press the power button after you do the start/lock maneuver.
Once you manually lock the phone, the screen will then turn off automatically. The next time you're ready to use the phone; press the power button-screen turns on-slide to unlock. Or if you get a call, you get the winmo 6.5 slide to answer screen (by changing the power setting this way, the phone doesn't power off, it goes into standby.
(This way you don't have to install anything, have conflicts with the ROM, and can prevent premature hardware button failure)
Step 2: Start/settings/system/power [Advanced tab: under "On battery power" select checkbox-turn off device if not used for and choose shortest time interval]
It won't turn off the phone, it'll just turn off the screen after the time you specify and you don't have to worry about accidental dials or button presses. Turn off backlight just dims the screen.
No need to press the power button to turn off the screen (changing the power settings makes it automatic), so once it's locked you can put it right in your pocket. When you're ready to use the phone again, press power and slide to unlock.
Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Buttons -> "End Key" Tab -> Select "Automatically execute the selected action:" -> Select "Lock device" -> OK
Hold the "End" button to lock device.

Lots of solutions to one problem that should not have occured in the first place. Why didn't you copy the iPhone/S2U2's behavior, MS?
Alreading mentioned here but install CSDevCtrl and in its settings
check box "lock when device wakes"
Is there any way to enable lock from the Home screen when it is using HTC Sense using 6.5?
Are there any secrren gestures to do this?
Or hard key combinations?
Not sure about doing it from the Home Screen, but you can press the Start Screen button, and tap the left softkey that says 'Lock'.
Or hold down the hardware home / hangup key.
