heya,
I just dug my Z-5500 out of storage after a long hiatus, and flashed it with Qtopia 2.1.2. Upon starting up, I tapped the screen once to start the setup, then went through the calibration procedure. However, no matter how many times I performed calibration, it simply repeated all over again. Thinking it was a problem with the ROM, I flashed it again with OZ 3.5.4 as well, with the same result (calibration kept on looping). This is a very strange error, but hopefully the machine is usable somehow - any suggestions? Thanks, Victor |

I restored from my back up and the restore worked fine but my calibration is still messed up.
Anyone have any Ideas on this? Jon |
