Tom Tom XXL Display Slightly off centre [Solved]

Postby shorty109 » Sat Apr 18, 2015 1:22 pm

Bought a TT XXL with a broken screen from eBay. Dismantled ready to replace the display. Broken screen dumped before taking the version number (Wife swears it wasn't her :021: ) Used a display from a working XXL (A050FW02) and seemed to work ok. Bought a replacement from eBay.The replacement display is now slightly off centre and down. Approx 3mm on the left and 2mm at the top of the display are black. All the function icons are active (bonus). Is there any way that I can get the display to the correct position? Thanks in advance for any advice.

I think he means the actual screen and not the touchscreen.
If so there is little that can be done as this would depend on the display driver and display working together correctly.
There are 2 or 3 similar screens available but only the only wich matches the original code will work 100%

Thanks for your quick replies. After getting the TT XXL to display the settings screen (77 948 142 878 etc etc) I was going to attempt the tutorial. Got the TT drums on reboot and hey presto the screen display has corrected itself? Maybe with the reboot the unit recognised the new display screen?????? Haven't got a clue how it sorted itself out but now have display in correct alignment. Happy days. Keep up the good work Downunder and tendriver, many thanks. :victorious:
