My touch screen buttons stopped working, and now I cant play back or even put footage on the computer. I try to click the touc screen buttons but it doesn't work. The recording and everything works fine, but I cant get my touch screen buttons to work. Please help?
Sony's flat rate cost to repair $230 camcorder is $211. Sounds like a rip off for a camcorder that was babied, and used less than 3 hours over a period of 3.25 years. I think this is defective engineering and would refuse to foot even a quarter of that bill. In fact, I'd sooner burn the corpse of this one, and buy a Panasonic for that much.
And guess what? I opened up this camcorder and there's nothing wrong with the wiring, nothing pinched, nothing ripped, nada, zilch, zero.
Where can i find parts? I'll fix it myself. Or smash it. Either are the only options.

The flexwire is the problem of your camera and if all wiring be cut the next problem is the lcd monitor would not turn on...go to a service center for replacing or repairing the flexwire...

The issue of touc screen freezing in he M880 is mostly due to fault in the contact. The screen contact is just below the volumen control buttons on the right. I inserted a fingre nain where the volume control is and pulled up the screena wee bit. near the volume up botton, I then inserted the tip of a tooth pick. It worked and the touch sensitivity is just as new :)
Sir, try reinstalling your phone. This will make the phone to be back to its original settings and maybe can bring the phone's touch screen capability back.
Hi, I have the HTC
touch from bell. I too had the same problem with my screen. It stopped
working completely. The phone is pretty much useless without the touch
screen working, there is only 3 buttons on the phone! Can't even dial
911... So I was pretty pissed when the screen stopped working. Like
others I searched the internet for answers and didn't really find too
much. I found that maybe tapping the four corners of the screen firmly
might work, but it didn't. Taking the protective cover off the screen
might work, didt't work. I tried updating the ROM, using the official
software from HTC website. I was able to update my phone, but my touch
screen still didn't work. Someone said something about some copper
connections inside the phone, need to be re-adjusted behind the screen
or something like that. So I willing opened the phone (only 4 hex
screws on the back) and took the front plastic cover off. If you look
closely, you'll see the front cover is plugged into the 'motherboard'
and you can simply unplug it. I unplug it and plug it back in, do a
restart of the phone (take battery out and back in) and still nothing,
screen doesn't work. I noticed that on the front cover of the phone
(underneath) you can see the copper band of wires that connect to the
buttons and probably feeds the information from the touch screen to the
'computer'. I accidentally unplugged the wire (thought I broke it) but
was able to insert it back in. I put the the cover back on, put the
battery in, power up phone, BINGO! Touch screen works! What I did to
make it work? Not sure... But for people with the same problem. Try this: 1) update ROM http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=70&cat=2&dl_id=98 2) Unplug and plug back in that little wire. http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/1912/htctouchx.jpg Its the red circle I'm talking about.

put it in DFU mode while connected to the computer.
to
do this, hold the home and power buttons for 10 seconds and then
let go of the power but keep on holding the home for 10 secs. the
screen will be black and nothing will show up. go to itunes and click
on your ipod on the left. then click restore. this should work.
Have you attempted to recalibrate the touch screen?
Since you can still use the navigational buttons, From the main menu:
1. Click the "Settings" button. It is the button at the center bottom with the DS on it.
2. Then click the "Touch Screen" button. That is the one with the Yellow Crosshair on it.
After that, proceed to calibrate your touch screen.
Let me know if that does not work.
