touchscreen calibration seems to go away very often, why?!!

[sickman2o0o]

hello there!

in the last days my touchscreen calibration seems to go away very often, any idea why?!!

i need to recalibrate now nearly daily

[open]

Try this - dont't insert stylus at Magican, just leave it separately.
I use another pen-stylus and from that moment my Magican stops recallibration :)
I hope you'll understand me ;)

i fail to see the connection between putting the stylus in its holder and recallibration :confused:

I think it means use a different stylus than the built in one.

I find a finer point onthe stylus helps a bit. I also read somewhere that pushing a thin business card aroud the inside of the screen sdge helps clear debris which can cause the problem.

In my experience, it can be a deteriorating problem and is hardware based - that means a new touchscreen - about $20 on ebay I think but I don't know how to do it. Last time my Magician failed int his way it went back to HTC under warranty and they replaced the touchscreen for me.

Hope this helps.

i am the same... there is no sensor that checks if i put my stylus in the hole or there is no sensor or radio connection between the stylus and the magician that sees what stylus is interacting with my phone...

i cant see the point. but thanx for answering

i guess, there should be a file that keeps the settings and maybe this file is dissappearing all the time?

Don't use original stylus for a few days - just for test :)

I think that the screen decalibrates when I insert and remove stylus to/from hole. Why? - I don't know :eek:

The reason of a strange event - touchscreen loses its calibration because of inserting/removing stylus - is there's a design fault of Magician.
Stylus brushes against the flat wire (connecting touchscreen with a device's motherboard) while being inserted or removed.
This wire, which is located right under the stylus rug, is about 1.5 cm width and is 60-pinned. So a slight shift of even one pin can harm the touchscreen connection :(
