yup i sorta had the same problem with calibrating so i did what u did. i sort of have a question? How come when i use my stylus on the old ds like the one u have in this vid it doesnt work but when i use my fingers it does work??????????? its really odd i eventually get the stylus to work when i get it calibrated nice and goood its really confusing????? i dont get why that happens???
1: Start your ds, and continue to the main screen (if you startup is set to auto, be sure to remove the game before starting.)
2: click the little DS icon below the "Start GBA game" icon.
3: When you get there, go to the yellow box all the way to the right that has crosshairs on it.
4: touch each of the targets until the four test targets appear. if your stylus does not accurately activate eacdh target, press x to recalibrate your ds.
OMG THANK YOOOOUUU!!! now i FINALLY understand the stupid calibration thing and how it works. i'm glad you fiddled with that thing until you got it right, you've helped so many people with their utterly annoying calibration problems.
Are you serious?! You could've went on ebay and bought the screens for like hardly nothing and just repaired it yourself. Very simple. I'll do the job myself before i pay someone.
i actually got my ds working it calibrated about a full cm off and it split everywhere i kept doing first point full square right bottom normal and centre normal when i test calibrate its off by 1 square but when u use picto chat to try it out its calibrated soo happyy this happened cuz my uncle spray painted my ds while it was on. my ds is an AWESOME one of a kind silver working ds
the reason your guys ds are being like that is because you are using something other than the stylus for the touch screen, and the touch screen isnt designed to work well with ANYTHING that touches it (thats what she said!). so therefore you will have a touch screen that wont calibrate right.
I had the exact same problem but i keep touching the red squares and it doesn't calibrate. I touched the first one 2 squares away, the second one i had to REALLY touch it and the third one.. I ahd no idea how... D:
Hey ... i just got your message. My bro must have been using my account cause his ds lite does that...and still does. He is gonna bring it to gamestop and have them check it out.
omg It all makes sense now!!!! my god when i touch the top left one normally it kept reseting but then i touched like 2 to the right and it worked! I haven't tested it all the way though ill check again.
you need to... put the settings...to the screen so that when you touch it with the stylus (the pen for the ds, which I lost...), the screen knows that you are touching there.
THANK YOU MAN!

ashma05 2 years ago
but if it wants that you need to touch the middle of the screen.. How can you calibrate it if your touch screen is messed UP???!?!
De1Meesterchef 2 years ago
thats the problem DX
you need to touch a little to the left or to the right, and suddenly the ds will think it is calibrated.
then you repeat the same process but every time a little closer to the square than the one before.
after doing that, the ds will be only a little descalibrated.
smashrocksband 2 years ago
it won't work for me. all it does is make the square move all along the screen! i've gotten to it before but it won't work now!

Mine takes like for ever to calibrate ...
Why?
Ailyce08 2 years ago
Nintendo made the calibration system so that if you didnt touch the squares the process resets, but sometimes it messes up >_>
so, sometimes it may not calibrate unless you touch near the square...

you need to... put the settings...to the screen so that when you touch it with the stylus (the pen for the ds, which I lost...), the screen knows that you are touching there.

it took me 20 minutes to calibrate my screen. i was very annoyed.
michaelmario1 3 years ago
I´m glad it helped :)
yes, I am left handed, but only for some things: in my ds, I use the wiimote with the right hand, I kick the ball with my left foot.
But for all other things I´m right handed.
That´s weird isn´t it?
smashrocksband 3 years ago
yeah. im all left. i write use the stylus wiimote, and kick with my left. if you want we can brawl now. im not leaving until another half hour.

oh, I didn´t write it ok:
I also use the wiimote with the left hand =P
