problem with tap screen?

[twobad4u87]

Hey, so I bought a 8525 cingular(at&t) yesturday. The guy sold it to me cheap because he said when he upgraded it to the vp3... somethin which is WM6 the touch screen didnt work anymore. But he was able to get passed the, "TAP THE SCREEN TO SET UP YOUR WINDOWS MOBILE-BASED DEVICE" screen in the beginning. I was wondering if anyone would know how to get the tap screen up and running again. I flashed the whole ROM, I upgraded the radio, & installed WM black Satin. But its stuck at that tap the screen shit, and my tap screen still doesnt work.. Anyone have any solutions? Maybe Downgrade to WM5 would work? anything I could try would be great.
Respond ASAP if you guys can, this is my only phone, and need it to make calls. Thanks

If a reflash of rom doen't help then I'm guessing you need to send it in for service. Don't think any other software will do any good at all.

put a blank file called "welcome.not" in the root of your storage card. In this way the whole thing gets passed by when you hard reset or flash new ROM.
you may later try to align screen using buttons or I can make you a cab for that.
cheers,

Hey Dan1967 I would appreciate it if you could make me a cab for the alignment. I had tried that without the cab file, but your right, I doesnt work without a mod. Also, where exactly would I drop the welcome.not filel for this all to work?

it is written in my message where to put the file...
do that and if you can not realign by buttons than your touch is indeed useless, but the device may still used with some reduced functionality

where is my storage device located. R u referring to my microSD chip?

[twobad4u87]

does anyone here think it could possibly be the touch.dll.. maybe when the dude upgraded to WM6 the touch.dll file got corrupted. Any info on this could help. And if someone does thinks this happened. How would I go about reinstalling the touch.dll
