Touch screen calibration

Lots of questions !

Is there a way to calibrate the touch screen, with the 5 points you have to touch ?

Feels like the back touch screen button is not aligned properly


It says in the manual you can, but doesnt say where the setting is, Ive looked in Display config settings, but nothing I could see in there

what is your firmware? For some reason the options depend on the devices firmware.

Firmware 0.94 - it appears separately on the settings menu

Firmware is v1.01

I cant see it in the menu as a separate option either

So these tablets are fairly new on the market then?

If they prove popular I'm sure we'll see some patches and updates

Maybe you could search for elcair_calibrate.apk on the internet download it and install it on your scroll via a SD Card and apps installer

Detection,

Just a mad thought, try the app 'any cut' to make a short cut when was using it, it listed the calibration option as eclair_calibration then if you have that you can access through a home screen icon. also it lists other functions that are hidden in the setting menu. (bear in mind my fw v is 0.94)

its strange how different firmware versions don't have the calibration utility, makes me wonder whether scroll are thinking about a new device with a capacitive screen?
