Hey guys

I was wondering if anyone can help me with fixing my touch screen option. It hasnt been working, and No i didnt drop the PDA or anything, my screen is as bright as new, but suddenly sisnce yesterday it stopped working and no soft reset or hard reset can fix this.

My phone is a SX66 of Cingular (AT&T varient)

I have been using this for almost a year without any problems at all.

UPDATE

Amid all the hard resets, all of a sudden. once my touch screen started working. but just after few mins of use it slowly started malfunctioning and finally it stopped totally. Which kinda leads me to believe that there may be a software/firmware glitch !

So I downgraded to my original system and extended roms. hard resetted, but didnt work (since i cant by pass the touch screen alignment tests, im using a remote PC based software to control my PDA as its synced through USB)

Now heres my help query. I observed that doesnt matter what ROMs (system, extended, radio etc) i have upgrade or downgrade my PDA splash screen remained as the one i originally changed to, same goes with the unlocking of my GSM PDA, i never had to use unlocker ever after the 1st time i did it.

Which means. theres a place in the PDA where these information are stored permanently and doesnt get flushed when u flush ROMs. Im guessing what if theres the TOUCHSCREEN initiation file/firmware/software which kicks in everytime when u start the PDA from the same place which doesnt get flushed. And that Touchscreen enable/disable file is either accidentally disabled or corrupt !

Is there any such file of the touch screen initiation ?

Is there any way I can remove any such files from registry, storage and copy back fresh ones ? That way i would sure its a hardware glitch and not a software. Like I said, my gut feeling is there may be a touchscreen initiation file which doesnt get flushed even when ur upgrading or downgrading the ROMs; and that file is either Disabled or Corrupt.

Can any developers help ? Would be kind if you can pass this queries to our very good friends at the xda-developers.

Thanks

Dutch company, very pro and efficient altough tthe best way is to ship the money with the broken pda.

They have any part.

I've tried it 2 weeks ago and I'm very happy with the service.

Hey Thanks for the link man, unfortunately Im based out of Asia so ya it kinda sucks as theres no repair shop around my area. Closest prolly will be Singapore or Thailand (i hope)

But im still hoping some techy at the xda-developers checks this issue and prolly be able to finally come to conclusion if its a software or a hardware fault.
