Force screen alignment

I didn't see anything about this anywhere, so I figured I'd post it up. I performed a hard reset on my VZW Touch Pro, then bypass the customizations. Afterward, my touchscreen was out of alignment. To force a screen alignment with the hardware keys, you press the center of the d-pad and volume up at the same time.

I hope this isn't redundant and helps someone.

I've needed it a few times on my Apache (which is center d-pad and ok, btw). As it got older, the alignment went out of whack quite often, and it was so bad that the screen was useless. Now on the Apache, you could navigate the entire device with the hard buttons. Not so on the Touch Pro. Unless someone knows a magical way to activate the Start menu without touching the screen.
