[Q] touchscreen calibration - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hope you guys can help me
my htc wildfire had an accident resulting in a broken touchscreen (front glass) i bought a new one and i replaced it because i didn't want to spend too much money
now the touchscreen its working cept the top part (where the notification bar is) its unresponsive to touch so i contacted the shop and they said i should do a reflash (which didn't help im currently using cyanogenmod last stable version) or i should find a touchscreen calibration tool to recalibrate my touchscreen which after many hours of searching i was unable to find
now does someone know about such tool or is this a calibration problem or the new touchscreen its also broken ?
any suggestion its appreciated

Capacitive Screens do not require calibration..
I had the same problem so I restored it to stock and as it was in warranty period got the touch screen replaced..
Now it is working properly

[Q] LCD stopped working .. Could it be software (root) issue?

Hello XDA ..
My G2 LCD stopped working for no reason .. It started flickering and losing colors two days ago .. and yesterday it went completely black .. I did not drop the phone or damage it anyhow ..
I opened it up and checked all connections and it looked fine .. the LED and digitizer screen work fine as well as the capacitive buttons at the bottom so I figured it is not a connection problem ..
I had Cyanegon on it for like 5 months and never had an issue .. I recently installed Virtious Sense ROM and I have been switching between the two the past week ..
My question is ,, do you think it is a software problem for example the lcd driver got messed ..?? or is it just the lcd was broken somehow
I am intending to buy a new lcd and replace the one I have now but I thought I should make sure that the one I currently have is actually broken before I replace it ..
Thank you,,
Edu
PS: if you can think of an easy way to check the functionality of the LCD let me know ..
Its rather hard for a software (even if it is firmware) to cause problems to an LCD. If you can se the backlight turning on but the screen not showing anything, i suggest you start trying out some unbricking methods.
Now, if the screen doesnt turn on AT ALL, then its possibly a hardware fault. The only way to be sure is to have an extra lcd available to connect to it. You could also try and give your lcd to someone with a Desire Z to try out your lcd on his phone and see what happens.
The "easiest" way though is to get a new one.
is the ribbon cable connecting the screen to keyboard damaged?

the backlight does not turn on at all .. so I guess you are right it should be a hardware issue

[Q] wildfire s digitizer issues

hi all
used this forum for solutions a few times but unfortunately couldnt find one this time so needed to make a thread!
ive just replaced the digitizer on my sisters wildfire s after she cracked it. the touchscreen seemingly works fine, except for the buttons at the bottom (ie home, menu, back and search).
ive had it in bits numerous times, with and without tape on the screen. tried the goldcard routine to apparently calibrate the screen, but nothing seems to be working. the rest of the touch screen seems perfect and accurate... just no buttons at the bottom.
anybody have any ideas?
thanks
liam
ive got the same kind of issue , the letter " i " and " . " didnt work so i replaced the digitizer and ive even installed a new ROM but still have the same issue , its really begining to piss me off now someone please help us

Please HELP : Freezing Lock screen and problem with touch screen.

Hi All,
I have a rooted (boot loader unlocked) HTC Wildfire S Marvel (A510E)
It has a strange problem. The lock screen freezes every time after locking and I have to try about 6 to 7 times to unlock it.
This is Common across all the ROMs that I have tried including stock and many Custom ROMs.
Also, two stripes of portion of the phone's screen i.e., upper side and left side doesn't work at all.. Not even touch.
For ex; I can't type alphabets 'q' and 'a' in qwerty keyboard. However, display is working. not touch.
The warranty of phone is expired and I really want to know if there is any way that I can fix either or both of these problem in home.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Kindly inform me if I posted this question in wrong area as I am totally new to this forum.
The lockscreen 'freeze' generally happens to everyone,even me,when I use the scary governor.It also happens for stock users.Did your screen die due to excess heat at that area I.e.do you use it in extremely hot conditions?
Lock screen > Grounding issue
I bought Wildfire S day before (New but without warrenty) and it was working very good. When i charge it full and then started using it its lock screen in not responding well. After doing 5-6 retries i was on the home page. Opened menu and tried to click on Favourites or Downloaded icons, it not working. Sometime it does but i cant open downloaded apps page. Similarly its back button is totally not working.
I charged it from my other HTC charger and then then problem was over. I worked well. But again after some time same problem started. I have searched over internet and seen similar problem in HTC Sensation for grounding. And there is a way out given too... But no such procedure can be applied to Wildfire S.
Can anyone suggest any solution?
Thnx.. Nope..

Thnx for the reply... Nope.. It started to behave that way after I dropped it once.. I didn't drop it from distance.. It was just a small impact....

Maybe you damaged the digitizer. Search for a new digitizer on net and replace it yourself. You can find guides for it online.

HTC phones have severe problem of screen not responsive when connected to a power source, may it be a USB or a charger. I had that problem before I got my phone serviced. It was completely resolved.
Just use original charger and make sure the power plug you are using has proper wiring. I mean proper earthing.
I faced same problem few months ago,I send it in HTC customer care .they replaced front panel

How To Re-calibrate The Touch Screen

Hi all !!!
I have an ONE X for a month and no matter what i did the touch is way off , the bottom screen is completely unresponsive .
Is there anyway to fix it ???
Hardware fault, I believe. I've never heard of a capacitive panel that needed calibration before, anyway...
if my friends have an original rom
is there anyway to extract it so i can install it on my device ?

anyone had this kind of problem?

please need help

You should watch the video on this webpage and make sure you didn't miss any cables that work the softkeys.
Most probably you damaged the buttons when you remove the old screen. They are not integrated into the screen. On the screen is just the drawing.
Or maybe you just forgot to plug some connector, from so many there.

Does HTC 10 sprint uses sames LCD as others htc 10?
Can this be the problem?
after 3 weeks i send my htc to htc official repair center they send me back my phone and said this:
"Equipment outside EU, spares necessary for service not avaible, please contact retailer"
this is a htc 10 sprint version, anyone can tell me if htc 10 from sprint is different from "normal" htc 10 ???
i reinstall sprint official last 7.0 rom
i flashed twrp and screen don´t work in last twrp
what is the problem? because the screen works fine in sprint rom, only the back and recent buttons don´t work because of some hardware failure
before i broke screen and replace it, twrp was working just fine
