Hi All
I got my Desire yesterday and played around a bit with it. What I am noticing is that the screen seems to be a little bit uncalibrated. For example, when I want to click on App1, I am clicking on App2 which is underneath it. Seems like my click is effectively being hit on the screen lower than where I intended. Hope I made myself clear.
Can anybody tell me if this happens and if there is anyway to fix that?
Thanks

As there isnt a calibration utility on the desire i think that you may have to contact your provider or htc to find out whats wrong.
aww
provider you mean the shop I bought the phone from?

Yes or if its on a contract to a network like t-mobile you should contact them
ok thanks
Its not that bad actually, maybe I have to get used to it. Thought there was some setting to fix it. If it gets annoying will contact the shop.

It can be a bit different i felt like this when i first got my desire but i have now got used to it!
actually its not a fault in the touch screen cause everything works, its just when I have a list of apps and I want to click lets say on the third one, the fourth one gets launched, and not always happens.
As I said, maybe since I am new to it all so its maybe my fingers that have to get used to it.
I do not think its a fault with the device actually
I had exactly same problem, when I switched to FroYo no problems, so software issue
Hi Benko
thanks for the message. So I guess I will have to wait for the Froyo update, or else I have to root my device, however since I am a complete newbie, I am quite afraid to do that.
Hopefully the new 2.2 will also allow for SD card installations!
You can try the new ROM update from HTC, if you don't have it, personally haven't tried it but maybe it will help
Serch for latest official rom(I believe it is 1.21.405.2)
try calibrating the keyboard, I think it calibrates the screen for other inputs as well.
How do I know which ROM I have presently?

Hi guys
This is my first thread, in this forum. Personally, i've never moded my cell phone, but recently attempted to root and mod my wildfire s.
I succeeded, this forum was really helpfull!
Even before the mod, my screen was driving me crazy. In the begining it took my attempts to unlock the phone. Some other time, in the messages section, keypad would act on his own, literally Even if i typed "A" it would typed "enter" or anything else but "A". So I enabled touch trace to see what happens.Here is the thing, like i suspected, touchscreen's reactions are spoted away of the point i touch. Sometimes, two touch traces appear on the screen.. Some other times, its extremely difficult to unlock the screen, hang up the phone, or use the menu.. So that's the story. With the mod nothing changed..
Is it a hardware problem? Is it a software problem?
Thanks in advance.. :good::good:
PS: I use cyanogenmod 10
Only a couple of apps installed
PS: english is not my mother language so, maybe some unusual expressions and dictation could by used :angel:

i had this problem too:
It's not a big problem..
your hand is wet, and the screen also, but if you dry it with a polyester (of your t-shirt) it will work..
only dry the display and your hand
so..

Hi, ghost inputs is a known issue caused by the charger delivering incorrect voltage/amperes. Are you using the stock one ?

Yes im using the stock one. I ve never measured the output though.. I maybe check it tomorrow.. But the problem is constant and happening, not only when the device is plugged... The other thing is, there isnt only ghost inputs, there are freezings too. Or a thing, where ex: im trying to unlock the phone, so i slide to the side, and visually im almost unlocking it, but in real, nothing happens. Its still on lock screen.
any other?? im kinda desperate with this phone.. :crying:
Perhaps a recalibration might work.

yes, If re-calibration is not helping then you need to replace the digitizer. Am also suffering the same issue now. Just got my digitizer replaced two days before. But am still suffering from some issues regarding touch. Gonna have to recheck with the retailer

Recalibration was succesfull it didn't come up with any change though...
So can you update this thread with your progress?? If your issue is fixed with the replacement of the digitizer then ill order one.

Sure thing. I am gonna clarify this with the retailer EOD.
ITS a hardware problem
i'm pretty sure its an hardware problem,did your wfs ever fall down or get submerged in water ??
Have you tried another charger?

That issue applies while we try accessing the phone while it is charging , right ? I mean, the touch response will be strange while the phone is been charged. But, here the OP is having issues with the touch screen all the time (charging / not-charging) . And re-calibration didn't work too.

Right.. Recalibration wasn;t helpfull.. Im waiting your report about Digitiser replacement so ill get one and fix that matter.
Hope its screen's issue, and not some further hardware damaga
It will take another two days for him to find out and clarify the issue. If it is a digitizer issue or some other hardware issue, I will update the same here ASAP.

Nope, issue happens at all times due to residual current.

I thought this was the error in the first place i measured current and voltage on the output of the charger and it seems legit..
I did change the charger thoug. So i didnt know how to proceed on this one. The way im thinking of it right now, i might let the battery completely deplete and charge from the new one?
I can't think how to describe this, so haven't found another thread on here or on google, so have to post a picture.
It hasn't been dropped: When the Sleep Android app woke me up this morning I noticed that there was time-lag between my commands and the phone reacting. This was a bit annoying, but it seem to warm up and THEN it just FLIPPED RIGHT OUT. I have got it working again with a Soft Reset, but it's dodgy and keeps FLIPPING OUT every now and again.
Any idea what I can do?

No I haven't seen it before that's why its a hardware problem if it is a software problem I am sure you are not alone.
Tv gets detuned when it does not receives signal possibly your lcd is not receiving signals or your hox's hardware is not sending signals to lcd.

If it is working then congrats. If your phone still not working properly then take it to the hospital he needs htc doctors.

Sorry Turn on the display and do a pressure between the display and the right down side on the main camera.
Also now there is a 5 second delay on commands. My dad rang earlier, I pressed accept call and it didn't react and it went to Voicemail.
Should i try a factory reset?

Becouse I have the same problem this is BFD(Blck Screen of Dead) The only one solution is to repleace the mainboard. If you have warranty go back to stock and relock bootlader and hope they will repear for free or wait until go so bad and the display stop working and they can't see your status on the bootlader. My phone start slowly to die until one day totaly dead and I am happy because before the dead I go back to stock and relock and they changed the phone after one month in service center with new one. I hope you have warranty. Good luck my friend.

Okay, also it's still laggy. Was that a problem with you?
I replaced the screen already, last year so that shouldn't be a problem.

Try reloading the original firmware using Odin. That should work. If you don't know how to do it, search this forum there is all kind of help available.

Yes! that's what i discovered now, i went to recovery mode (Power Button+Vol down button) and i was so suprised that it lasted 2 hours now without shutting down or fading to darkness
Now i'm confused, if it was a hardware problem then we will face the same problem but i'm not sure if it's the motherboard

You have to stress the phone to see if it is stable. Recovery is a low resource environment, boot into Android and then see it is not working. Trust me, i have a device with the same symptoms and fixed it by baking the motherboard in an oven.
