The right 1/4" of my screen has no touch input. Visually, everything is normal. Is there a way to re-calibrate my screen? or is this a warranty issue?

You could try recalibrating the touchscreen by going to Menu, Settings, Language & keyboard, Touch Input, Text Input, under Finger touch precision, choose Calibration tool or even Reset calibration. If it still happens, you may have a bad screen which should be covered under warranty.

The Thunderbolt should always have this option. Are you running stock or aftermarket firmware?


From the home screen:
- Menu
- Settings
- Language & Keyboard (5th from the bottom)
- Touch Input (this should be way down at the bottom, under all your keyboards)
- Text Input (right about the middle of the list)
- Calibration Tool and Reset calibration are the last two options.

Make sure you're holding your phone is in the portrait position. If not you will not see the calibrate and reset options.

I have a similar problem. However mine only affects the O, K, and M keys when trying to type. It is very frustrating, but I'm trying to deal with it until the next big HTC phone comes out.

I tried to calibrate my screen, failed to get by the "o" in brown. I tried to reset to the factory settings. That portion of the screen, the whole right 1/4 inch in profile position, is unresponsive. Presumably, that means that I need a new screen or phone?

Dear All,
i have faced the issue and the solutions is to put your phone on auto brightness and things will be just fine.
