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..

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

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!

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!
the one I found has good very screens is joeweiderx

[Q] Colored snow, screen distortion, earphone speaker not working on Tilt2

Hey everyone,
I'm currently running the latest Jackos and I believe everyone was fine with the speaker you hold to your ear in conversation until about 2 weeks ago. Maybe a week or so after I installed the newest Jackos. Now I can't hear anything on it, but the microphone works fine. Speakerphone works fine, and my bluetooth earpiece works fine. I've searched for help on this and can't find anything to fix this problem.
The other problem is right when I boot the phone, instead of getting the black screen with the red diagnostic text, I get a white screen with colored speckles all over the screen. The speckles don't move at all and if I let it sit for 20 seconds or so, it will then show the HTC logo on black and continue booting. I can't get into the bootloader, I can't hard reset the phone, etc. Any ideas how to fix this? I haven't tried flashing the same/another ROM yet, but I don't know if that's even possible with this snow screen problem.
I've run Task29 and all the usual stuff every time I've flashed and I have never seen this happen until a couple of weeks ago. It does it NEARLY every time I soft reset or shutdown and boot or pull the battery and boot. The battery charges fine and it runs fine otherwise.
The screen will get random glitches in it, even when the battery is full and it makes me suspect maybe the battery's going bad but it'll run all day without problems and it doesn't get warmer than usual or anything like that.
Also, sometimes it says there's no SIM inserted and I've pulled it out, the contacts are nice and gold and nothing seems wrong.
Any ideas?
My sig is out of date but I have to head out right now and can't switch it yet, but it's the latest Jackos with 6.5.
Thanks,
Eric

I would flash a different/stock ROM and see if anything changes.
If no, hardware problem. If yes, software problem .
You seem to think you cannot, but AFAIK if you can task29, you can flash a ROM. Either way, putting an nbh on the SD card and doing power+vol up+reset should work regardless, unless the device is really bricked - in which case it wouldn't be booting.

Okay thanks, I'll see what I can do with it.. It does boot fine, though for a week I thought it was bricked because of the snow, but I decided to just let it sit for a week and gave it a shot, and poof! no snow on the first boot. It had the regular red text on black. Then I reset it from the slide to reset menu item and it went to snow again. I let it sit there and about the duration that it would be on the diagnostic screen, it was snow, then magically showed me the HTC logo and booted normally.
So it seems to me that it somehow doesn't want to show diagnostic info but does everything else.. So maybe the bootloader mode IS working, I just can't view that. I'll see what I can do.
Does the screen corruption/no sound in earpiece seem like a ROM issue, or battery related, or phone going bad problem to you?
And I've been looking for a while trying to find a suitable replacement, but haven't seen anything that I really find appealing (either in Android or WP7).. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks again,
Eric

Flash stock, it re-flashes everything... Make sure it works, then flash back to Jacko's.

Talk about loaded questions! I haven't found anything that's appealing with a hardware keyboard yet... The supposed TP3 (on Sprint it's the "Arrive"...) was a real disappointment.
MT4GS looks decent, if you can live with tmo...

Thanks for your replies, I'm going to try to flash to stock in a little while and see how that goes.
The new Glide phone that AT&T has sounded promising until I read a review of it. Slow camera, 480x800 on a larger screen, etc. It didn't seem as cool as I had hoped it would be after that.
I'll write back with my progress or lack thereof with this TP2.
Eric

I installed HTC's official AT&T ROM and the screen corruption seems to be less extensive but looks different too. The snow at startup is still present though.
There was a radio that came with Jackos ROM, is there any chance that's to blame? Though it worked fine for a couple weeks before these weird screen things started happening.
I haven't tried making a voice call yet to test the earpiece/earphone/loudspeaker or whatever the proper name is for it but since nothing else is really 'fixed' I'm not sure it will work either.
Thanks,
Eric

The stock ROM should've come with a radio as well...
task29 & flash stock? Otherwise perhaps you have a hardware problem... I don't know what to make of this snow .

The earpiece/loudspeaker thing isn't fixed either. I'll try a Task29 tomorrow or tonight if I can't sleep (thinking about this stupid phone! ) and then flash this ROM again and see what happens and let you know.
Thanks again

[Q] Is it a hardware problem?

Hi!
In my Galaxy Nexus, a line of pixels on the top of the screen isn't normal.
http://i.imgur.com/sd9WGXJ.png
Just see by yourselves... The line at the top of the sreen (left side when landscape mode) isn't coloured normally. Is it a screen issue or software issue? I am using coloured softkeys that I modded with metamorph but I've never noticed this problem for 3 months of softkeys modification, just now...
If it is a hardware problem I'll send it do warranty, but I need to be sure that is worth of it

Seems like a hardware problem. The app you asked about doesn't seem like it'll fix it, but worth giving it a shot.

no it doesn't fix... what kind of "pixel disease" it is?
warranty covers that?

Display problem

Hi,
Factory reset - done!
Flash Android 2.3 - done!
I had the original Android 2.2 before, so the software is not the reason for my HTC Wildfire display problem.
Display image is moving up/down, the line of notification with signal, battery level..., is going in the middle, bottom of display and so on.... I have a screenshoot and a picture made with a very bad mobile camera, but hope to be enough!
I think few water drops inside 3.5 mm audio jack could be the reason, the warning LED(red one) is not working too.
Had someone the same issue? A way to fix this?

...menu bar is floating from bottom to top, pushing all icons/options and it is nearly impossible to hit the right icon/option. Also when there is a keyboard, it moves up and down but it always reacts when pressed on position where it should normaly stand.
Thanks! So... I'm not the only one with this issue.
I think the reason for this screen it's because i dropped the phone before (3-4 days), but not noticed this right in that moment...
Anyway, I easy dropped the phone with intention several times recetly and the screen was OK for a day... don't know what can it be...
I'll try to find out how can be this problem fixed in a service and how much have to pay for all this...

After all, it seems my display don't want to turn on anymore.
I turned on my phone and it's working, it's able to receive calls with no problem, digitizer is working too because I can answer by tapping the known part of display where is that button!
I want to buy a new display and replace it. Could be anything else that make my display not turning on?
