Yep thats what I did, I tried it before I read on your comment sheet that 
it wouldn't  work.  My point, though, was that it looked fine on the 
screen, and it didn't crash on the way to getting there.  I think then 
that the ADB is the problem not the screen, Am I completely wrong, I 
don't know about wthe way the system is coded.
