Guest hondastrtracr Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Usually when I align my screen it does the 5 points and exits back to the normal screen. However that has not been happening lately, it seems to go into a loop and I must shut off the screen and turn it back on for it to exit. I did a hard reset thinking that would solve the problem only to find I had to align the screen at first boot. After hitting all the +'s about 100 times it finally moved onto the next screen and I was able to activate my phone again and use it. Is it time to take it back to Verizon for a replacement?
Guest maf107ezk0 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Try using this instead of a manual allign: 1. Open your Registry Editor(PHM Registry Editor) 2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/TOUCH/ 3. Click on CalibrationData 4. Value Data change to > 519,503 177,881 182,129 847,127 849,872 5. Click OK to save it.

SO far that really has seemed to improve the accuracy of my screen!

Hi, How do you open registry when you are still stuck in the alignment stage? Please advise details how to do it - am also stuck in this stage and I've hit the crosshairs more than 100x!!! Many thanks.

Guest hondastrtracr Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 Got it already - used CeRegEditor. But still stuck in the alignment page... I don't think this is meant to fix the alignment screen but only gives the screen a more accurate if not perfect alignment via the registry tweak.
Guest Adrynalyne Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 Tap and hold. It should move to the next target. Don't tap hard, don't tap repeatedly.

Not too noticeable though.
Guest maf107ezk0 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 Yeah, many of us have this spot on the screen - it`s really annoying because it`s small but noticable B)
Guest hondastrtracr Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Yeah, many of us have this spot on the screen - it`s really annoying because it`s small but noticable B) There must be a part of the hardware behind the screen that presses against the lcd or something. Either way I have an all black theme now and I can't notice it at all.
Guest maf107ezk0 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 Yeah, I`m using a black theme with SPB Mobile Shell too, but it`s in the back of my head that there is a spot B) :(
