Default OMFG Screen went dead...

So i just finally got my kaiser today... and had just charged it up, played with it for a few minutes then decided to take the gps for test drive... so i run gps quickfix, then run tomtom and all is well... however about 20 minutes in to my test run the touch screen stopped working... so i hard reset and still no touch.... i even tried some of the tricks from the TyTn's screen alignment issue(business card around the edge, etc), and still nothing... I also tried to reflash the htc rom on here..

anyone else have this issue?

Wow man that SUCKS ASS!! I have not had any issues with the touch except maybe for it being slow to respond to taps some times. I have noticed that this all though seems well built the Kaiser is not. the USB/charger port is crappy compaired to the Hermes and the first Kaiser i got had a broken scroll wheel it almost seems like they rushed these out the door. You ordered yours right so its probably going to be a pain to ship back to get a replacement. I feel bad man! Sounds like your digitizer died or came loose ****ty part is you cant check cuz you void the warrenty

Back to XDA where it all started over 10 years ago back in the "Hermes" days on windows mobile 5 things have come a very long way in portable devices

Now rocking a Samsung Galaxy S II (I777)
With Custom Built ROM with a little mix of all the best!

yeah, lcd works fine, digitizer is definitely dead... i would imagine its loose since it did just up and die all of the sudden.. and i cant check...

I think my post was to see exactly how many people have had issues with theirs, oh well, back to my tytn for now

I feel for you man, I haven't read a single post about a dead touch, lucky you. Frankly that's my normal luck with a brand new toy (quietly knocking wood).

Yeah, i havent heard of to many major problems.. Oh well, i did exchange communication with richard and he asked me to ship it back to them and they would replace it... Im very happy with that, if i send this thing to HTC (if i even can yet) then it would take forever... I for one and extremely satisfied with richard and this joint venture for the xda store... its amazing!

A coworker of mine had the same issue with a new 8525 a few months ago. Everything worked fine for about a day, then all of a sudden the touch screen just stopped working.

That is a total bummer. I feel for you.
