[Q] Help me with my Evo,Please!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello,
The purpose of this thread is to seek assistance with what has become a major issue.I have a rooted EVO 4g device(for several months) and I am not sure as to how it exactly happened but my phone now complete commands by itself.For example when in typing screen,it automatically starts writing letters,when I try to erase them they repeatedly come back.It will not let me complete many commands before taking over and clicking random selections.
**Things I have tried to remedy the problem include clear cache,data several times,install other roms(same problems with Cynagogen 7, syngergy and MIUI).
Powering off and powering back on.
Nothing seems to work and I would greatly appreciate it, as i am extremely close to unrooting and going back to the old fashion way.
What should I do?
Please help
Albert

Are you using the stock keyboard? or is this on a 3rd party keyboard?

Sounds like the touch screen is going bad to me. Does it also randomly open aps? Or is it just when you are typing?

wow! Incredible response time. I have tried several keyboards as well, stock, swift keyboard and the one that comes preloaded with cynagogen 7.

Are you having issues with response times any other times you touch the screen? Could be your digitizer going bad?

It's been a slow day at work.
Sounds like you've covered your bases pretty well. I'm still thinking it's a HW problem. There are intructions out there on how to replace the screens. You can buy replacements on eBay.

issues with response time, such as not responding, clicking above and below the area I touch and not responding to the area I touched.

Curious, do you know how much a screen cost? Nothing else that can be done prior to this? excuse my ignorance.

I've seen anywhere between $11 and $28.

Call a priest, rabbi monk or other clergyman because your phone is possessed by a demon!
Actually, it sounds like a hardware problem. My wife's touchscreen android phone had a similar problem..it was hardware related

Its a a touch screen lcd Digitizer, pretty much the cover. Some ppl have replaced em when their screen cracks or scratches. You might want to unroot and take into store and see if they will replace.

Thanks, a milliion times for your feedback. I actually looked it up after asking impulsively. I was thinking about taking it to sprint, but because I had such a difficult time getting my evo rooted in the first place. wanted to rule out all other options before going that route.

Does anyone have an updated version of the unroot process?

Go to unrevoked's site and download the s-on tool, then flash that in recovery. Then download the newest RUU available. You can download it in .exe form to run from your computer or as a zip to flash through the bootloader. If you decide to go the zip route, rename it to PC36IMG.zip (don't add a zip, it's already there) and put it on the root of your SD card. Boot into the bootloader (vol down + power) and when it asks you to update select yes with the volume up button.
I wouldn't flash the s-on tool though, and would just run an RUU. If you used unrevoked or unrevoked forever during your root process then you'll keep s-off. They should still fix it as long as you're back to stock otherwise. That way if the tech gets the crazy idea to update your phone you can still get root back. If they replace it then maybe someone will get your s-off device

I had this issue, gave the bare screen a nice cleaning with an glass cleaning wipe and changed screen protectors and the issue never came back.
If you have a screen protector on, check this route first. If not, then digitizer it is.

I wouldn't unroot, just flash a stock, rooted ROM. I doubt they're going to look at your Hboot or anything. This way, if they get jumpy and update for you, you'll still be S-Off.

[Q] 1 mm Screen missing since having flashed Sense 4 Rom!

Hello
I have tested different roms with Sense 4. One V porting Rom.

The size screen stay the same when I flash back a Sense 3 Rom as Revo HD & others.
Have you any idea?
Thanks
Flow & Co
Edit:
Something strange, when I take a screenshot the size is 480*800... :/

That's perfectly normal it's supposed to look like that.

Are you sure!?
I haven't already noticed that during 15-16 months :/

Hey,
i have the same issue since i flashed LeeDroid v5.1 and 5.1.1 (i still have the Rom and the issue). I remember that some time ago Lee had some wrong drivers for the touchscreen in his rom that had the same effect. It was in his v.3.. i think. But after an update it dissapeared. I never read of others users mentioned this for LeeDroid v.5.
As Lee's Rom is not an ICS Version, i think that it doesn't have something to do with ICS. I hope somebody knows how to help us
EDIT: While thinking about Lee's Touchscreen drivers i am not sure if it the problem was that 1mm of the screen was missing at the edge or that the screen didn't react on touchinputs at the edge of the screen. But its a fact that my screen looks like yours! And it didn't look like that all the time and with all the other roms i had.

I have the same problem. Hopefully you will find a solution.

Here you go i'm using miui v4 btw but i just checked and it was the same on gingerbread. The reason they did this was because of when you tilt the device slightly you still see the full screen as the screen is slightly below the glass your pressing on.

The 1mm gap is 100% not normal. After flashing a sense4 rom i could see how it hapens. After the reboot the screen just got small. There is now a 1mm free black space at the right side off the desvice and an 0.3mm space on the top of the device. The "black spaces" are touch responsive. Thats a driver issue.

Here you go.
PS: I dislike you XD, na just joking tho i didn't notice before and now i do......

It's not a resolution issue but aspect ratio issue...i don't think it's that big of a deal but do you get same results with GB roms?

Turn DHD over
Heya, just noticed that on the back of the phone says HTC.
J/K

1mm
So there is an fix for that? Because i think thats not an hardware issue. It happened when flashing primoS v3.3 Sense rom.

@Xinos, thanks I have't seen this thread yet
@shad0wboss, Yes I have same issue with GB. But I don't think I had it with official or before use Sense 4! here is the point

Don't take this the wrong way but it's all in your head you noticed this when you flashed sense 4 and you were expecting bugs. So you notice smaller things including screen miss-alignment.
Trust me if everyone had this problem you would see alot more questions in this subject. Be my guest tho and do a factory reset, but i'm pretty sure it's a hardware fault that has always been there you just never noticed before like i did damn you (T_T) .

Then what's stopping you from fully resetting your device that should fix it shouldn't it?
I really don't care what you do i'm just giving my piece of advice, one thing you could try is going into boot loader mode (power down device and then press on button+volume down) if it still has it that means youre device has a miss-aligned screen.

^^
Stay calm men
I have to try to flash a Ruu on my device and see if the "problem" change. Maybe this is not a problem
We have to see. But if we found a man which hasn't it can we call that a problem?

It's not only the primos rom. I've realized this since this thread is started and I'm on IceColdSandwich.
How ever, you have to send it to HTC cause of the issue and use your warranty. There is nothing you can do with flashing a new ruu oder rom.
Regards.

But how this can be? Some magic troll got under the screencover and made the screen smaller? Because the screen is not moved in the device or anything. I know that there is an hardware issue on some phones that the screen is wrong aligned but thats not our case, because the screen got 1mm smaller on each side of the phone. its most likley an software issue.

Has any of you tried boot loader mode? If the issue still persist over there it's a hardware fault as you can't change the boot loader.

[Q] r800a w/ screen damaged

my phone screen is kinda 'broken' but no by physical impact, i guess its by the custom rom, i can use the touch fine but i can't see a damn thing, it's totally white, the phone its perfetcly fine, music, wi-fi and the other things it's fine but the screen it's white, it's r800a, 2.3.4, 4.0.2.A.0.42, i've installed the DooMKernel but later i've seen that custom rom of Xperia S for Play, quite excited, was perfetcly and a couple days ago, he's having a appearing a white screen but if you lock the phone and unlock, he get back normal, but yesterday even if i lock n unlock, he doesn't get back normal, and now, i've just flashed again to NorthAmericanGeneric 2.3.4 4.0.2.A.0.42, the boot who appear the sony ericsson logo appeared and i have thought "its fine", but the white screen was back and now i'm can't think a way to do something...

This is actually a common problem that happens to xperia devices. It's the flex cable that's busted. Here's a link to where you can buy a new one

Same problem
i got the same problem i just got it. How can this happen at same time for us

By the way the lines run accross the screen it looks like the cable to your screen is loose and is not longer attached all the way.

It's actually less of making the cable loose, and more about the friction from the plastic on the track. Every time you slide out your game pad, you are fraying the cable a bit. After time, your phone gets that white screen.

my R800at did the same thing . white weird screen but still operates fine. i ordered the ribbon and yes installed correctly. same problem it didnt fix it. i too installed a custom rom and it went white shortly after. im just asking someone to think out of the box on this one. i love the work you do here saved my butt a hundred times. i inspected both cables and even sent my old one back in my return package and got a refund . It looked like the other no fraying or any unexpected wear and tear.

HTC One X's part of touch screen not working at all

I brought my HOX about a month ago, no issues at all after updating to 1.28, no built issues zero software issues, it was perfect.
But today morning i installed a game and tried to touch the menu bar(the vertical bar with 3 dots just above capacitive buttons) and it does not work.
Not only in the game but everywhere you try to touch that area nothing happens.
This problem is not only limited to the menu bar, but also till very slightly above it.
The 1.29.7 update for asia just came out, i thught this would fix it but it didnt.
Tried to factory reset but still doesnt works.
Is this a hardware problem? Should i take to htc?
And do you think i will get a replacement or a repair job done?
Also, i have never dropped the phone even once, it was aways in soft silicon case away from any rough use. In fact, it has hardly been used.
Thanks

I would send it right back to HTC for a replacement.

Exchange it. I had a simular problem with mine but it was the top of the screen that stoped working. In the end I had to get a exchange.

Same problem here, but I've unlocked mine voiding my warranty : (

Defo not fixed with firmware updates as I had the same issue with my first one and had to return it for an exchange

had the same problem and gone for a replacement. I have tried many things with the guidance of HTC support center none worked.

same problem here
took it back to shop where it was purchased from, it took over 6 weeks for repair centre to return it.
just got it back today and the problems are still there
im sooo unhappy with this phone.
ive emailed HTC and waiting on a response.
i want a new one or my money back.

SO SAD

I am expireincing the exact same problem, except the non working part of digitizer is just above the middle of the screen. Is flashing a new ROM would fix it? I think i have nothing to loose, since i cannot send my phone to AT&T because i bought it used on ebay and i live in Canada. I guess it could be 50% chances ROM issue, my old Sensation was having a speaker issue, witch was playing very weak, i sent it to HTC and they flashed a new ROM, it got is spaeker fixed.

I too had this problem although it was intermittent. Sent my HOX to be repaired on Thursday, waiting to hear back.

Did changing the ROM do any good? I have the exact problem on my HTC, bought through craiglist, and am now in India so the warranty won't work. Is there anything I can do to correct it short of replacing the whole LCD?
Your help will be much appreciated.

Getting a One X, should I update it?

So tomorrow I have a HTC One X being delivered
Super-excited, but I have one question - should I update it when I get it or leave 'as is'. Reason being as I don't want to prevent any possibility of being able to put CFW on the device. Give or take a few weeks I'll probably jump off Sense and go for Cyanogen or something.
I know this a very noob question - it's just I'm not familiar with this particular device - rather the Xperia Play and Wildfire
Also, any things I should know?
Thanks!

You can update it, it should'nt do any difference. But remember you can be charged for repairs from htc if you do. I did, they changed the motherboard but I still got it for free.
You could wait for s-off. _If_ they manage to crack the damn thing, you won't loose the warrany because the bootloader is still locked.
Must still must say that sense is really good, and the 2.05 coming soon is superb, and so far I havent rooted again yet.
Hope it helps you decide.

Don’t unlock it right away, because like Sckank said you’ll loose warranty. There are some common hardware issues with the phone (i.e WiFi antenna problems), look in the general section to find out more, so wait a while and test everything out before you attempt it, or better yet wait for S-OFF (which is what I’m doing).

hi,
became confused... :S
if was possible to make s-off you don't lose the warranty?
i know that you can reverted to s-on again ...but they will notice or not?
the bootloader can be relocked or isn't the same thing?

Nope if they can s-off then s-on is no problem and you're completely back to stock. And you don't have to agree to that you loose your warrany. And they can't see that.
Nope not the same thing, they will see that. It will say "relocked", not locked.

when you unlock without s-off, you need to pass through htc-dev, which will make it record your unlock status. and also, when you relock your bootloader, it will display "Re-Locked Bootloader" instead of :Locked Bootloader". With s-off, none of them will change.
EDIT : beaten. haha.

Still, a more complete answer about htc dev

thanks to both

Thanks guys!
I'll go ahead and update for now then.
I got my new phone this morning, unfortunately it has some nasty 'backlight leak' along the bottom of the screen so O2 are getting a replacement out to me tomorrow. It's a gorgeous phone, just hoping the replacement doesn't suffer the same problem...
It's pretty minor and I'm perhaps a little OCD but I showed someone else and they were like "it's all wavy "

I think it generally affects white and brighter backgrounds. I thought it might be 'normal' when I found various threads about 'stagelight' backlight leak, though this was after I'd given O2 a quick ring. Can't cancel the replacement now, just hope it's not a refurb replacement.
Not *too* bothered about it... it seems to have lessened since I first booted it up oddly.
All being said, I would consider this to be a defect really - the only time I've seen 'stagelight' bleed like this was after I had a smartphone go through the wash. HTC need to improve the manufacturing process considering the cost of these handsets near half a grand.
