I replaced the digitizer on one of my Axims and found that with the unit apart, it worked just fine, but when I put the case back on and tightened the screws, I got the same problem. Case OFF...works fine, Case ON...gray screen.

I tracked the problem down to a metal bezel that is the last part of the LCD/Digitizer "component". Apparently the new digitizer was just a tad thicker than the OEM digitizer, and this bezel was pressing down all-the-way-around the edge of the screen and totally baffeling the digitizer circuitry.

I left the metal bezel off, put it back togeher, tightened the screws, and voila........works perfect, doesn't jiggle or wiggle (and I generally like a bit of wiggle & jiggle!), or slop around, and I haven't had to realign the screen since initial reboot.
