Align Screen Infinite Loop

I was running MightyRom for almost a year, no problems. Suddenly about a month ago my screen alignment was sporadically 'off'. The alignment screen function no longer worked, I had to restart the phone to exit the application.

Yesterday I flashed back to the stock Sprint ROM and removed the SIM card, I'm giving the phone to my kid so I wanted to reset it to factory specs.

So the 'startup for the first time' sequence begins and the align screen application simply will not 'align'. The crosshairs just prompt me to keep pressing for alignment but I cannot get past the screen.

I hard reset the phone several times from the bootloader screen, even tried to re-flash the Sprint ROM again, but no avail.

Any suggestions? I've been all over google looking for solutions.

I should also mention that it's a brick since I can't make calls/text, etc.. I'm stuck on the 'align' screen.

It sounds like you have a bad digitizer there. I doubt anything you do software wise will have any effect.

Re: Align Screen Infinite Loop

Not a bad deal... Your son will get a fresh refurb.
Same thing happened to mine... Two of the keys on the keyboard stopped working just before I was due for an upgrade.
I got the replacement and then upgraded a couple of weeks later.

Good luck bro.

Re: Align Screen Infinite Loop

I took it to the Sprint store, they confirm that it must be a hardware issue.

Rep ordered me a new one, says it will be in by Monday or Tuesday, just have to activate an old phone for the weekend.

0 deductible!!

I'm glad that I got that Sprint ROM back on it just in time.

Re: Align Screen Infinite Loop

yea the deductible is usually $0 if there's no physical or water damage or if the phone wasn't lost or stolen.
