My money is on the informed opinion at 20:1

The digitizers can be replaced for about $30 if you are a little bit handy - this post over on AF contains a link to a useful video of the procedure on YouTube. I suppose it's feasible that the problem is as simple as a "loose connector", but that's still a hardware problem, not software.

http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/371983-help-save-brick-5.html#post2941531

Search around (both here and on AF) in the Eris forums for "screen replacement" or "digitizer"; you might find some links to inexpensive sources for the digitizer and cover glass

cheers

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Terror_1:
Yeah, that's what I thought. Good to have a second opinion though. Haven't used this phone in about a year anyway, not sure if I have a plan for fixing it or not to be honest.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
FYI, it occurred to me that many of the folks that have replaced their digitizer did so because of one or two different scenarios:

- they dropped their phone and cracked or smashed the cover glass

- portions of the touchscreen stopped working.

In your case, because you don't have partial functionality of the touchscreen, the possibility exists that the problem is elsewhere (for instance in the electronics or wiring which "talk" to the digitizer).

It would be disappointing to go through the trouble of replacing the digitizer only to find out that you had spent the money for no result; but cut-n-try is the name of the game in electronics repair.

I mentioned the other possibility of a simple case of a loose connector - before you spend the money, you might try popping the Eris open and then disconnecting and reconnecting the flex-cable connectors to see if its an easy fix like that.

Since I don't use it and it has been in a drawer since September of 2010 I might get around to it but I really don't think so.

I am half tempted to just mail it off to the first person that wants it.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddyastuffed:
i just recently replaced my digitizer, but like the previous post said, the problem was that only certain parts had no touch. i actually started to have another problem where pushing the back soft key would then initiate a barrage of pushes from all over the screen. honestly, if the soft keys are working and the rest of the screen isnt, i doubt that its a loose connection.

i found my digitizer on ebay for around $30 give or take a dollar or two. and its honestly not too hard to replace if you watch youtube videos on it. the only hard part is taking off the original digitizer (seriously u feel like its going to snap from how much pressure you need to put on the adhesive they used before) and trying to clean all that adhesive they had on before. but i was very pleased after replacement to have my eris working wonderfully, lol mainly because my upgrade at the time wasnt for another month!! and just think, with the condemned soul wifi fix for non-serviced phones, you can have the almost equivalent of an ipod touch with $30 n a little bit of handywork :))
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddaydude:
I sold my friend my Samsung Vibrant and I've never had any problems flashing it, he tried flashing the cyanogenmod rom (tried being the operative word...) and I'm not sure what he did to but when I try to turn it on its has the I9000 boot screen and it goes to the vibrant splash screen and turns off, if it's plugged it gets to the vibrant screen and then has the cycle icon for the battery then it shows the battery and it infinitely loops like this when its plugged in (when I had it, it would be completely dead and I could plug it in and turn it on at the same time and it would boot fine and didn't die). I tried flashing JI6 via ODIN, which seemed to flash correctly (gets to zImage and says removed and then pass), but nothings changed (still I9000 boot screen and still crashes on splash screen with battery loop). Any idea what I can do to fix this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krackers:
I think your friend flashed the I900 Version of the Rom. Try odin-ing to stock.

EDIT: You already odin-ed JI6. Try odining to stock JFD with both pit and tar files. That should restore everything (bootloader, kernel, baseband, etc...)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
its shows i9000 on boot with the GB bootloaders

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849028 have a read through there :)

if you do have the GB bootloaders its vol up and power for download mode
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deziguy420:
odin to stock will fix it
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddaydude:
Downloaded and tried all three of these things and still nothing different. When I turn it on the boot and splash screen come up but then the device just turns off. Tried JI6 and JFD, and the boot screen keeps showing up as the I9000 (GB), when it should be the stock TMOUS bootscreen, so it seems like the bootloader isn't being flashed correctly, although it says pass and has no errors. I'm thinking that the phone is bricked, is there anything I'm not thinking of that would help?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demetris:

skip the parted part you dont need it and phone would be back to good function asap.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
the jfd.tar doesnt have the bootloaders i dont think so you'll still be on GB bootloaders on 2.1, they're backwards compatible anyway so it doesnt matter
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddaydude:
I've tried to get into recovery mode for this but I can only get into download mode (tried VOLUP+HOME+POWER (and without home) boots to download mode, tried VOLDOWN+HOME+POWER (and without home) and it does nothing, I've tried to use adb on the download screen but it doesn't find the device). Is there another method that I'm missing?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demetris:
I remember telling you you dont need parted part -> dont need to enter cwm just download mode.

1.download mode

2.http://www.4shared.com/file/dJiyRz3v...Froyo_PDA.html

unzip it and get odin ready.

Go to download mode, place pda only in phone area pit not needed, flash

Let it boot into recovery, remove battery and re-enter download mode.

Flash JFD with pit file and re-partitions checked.

Done and done.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddaydude:
Sorry about that, my bad. But I tried just tried that, and when I flashed the Froyo file it booted to recovery (like it sounds like it should have, still with GB bootloader and reversed controls on recovery and not able select since vibrant doesn't have an ok button) and then flashed JFD with the pit and repartition selected and it goes back to turning off after the vibrant screen. I tried redownloading both froyo and JFD thinking one might be corrupt and I still get the same result as before. I've checked the instructions 10+ times and I've used odin for the life of this phone more times than I have counted, and I can't figure out why it doesn't seem to be taking it, it doesn't fail in odin so it doesn't make sense.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demetris:
After doing what i recommended your phone would be in fully functioning order.

Your problem lies on the bootloader so i would recommend to flash froyo bootloader from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117990

but before md5 check the downloaded file and follow exactly the guide there.

If this dont fix it then i think your phone is a pita.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
I kinda agree that its probably just the Bootloaders that is the culprit for the I9000 splash. As mentioned flashing the original FROYO should fix it. At least it did for me. I had to do both these links in the GB bootloader thread for it to take though. 1st one 1st - then either of the 2nd links 2nd.

Now as far as ODIN. The yellow triangle and android dude digging should be there throughout the entire ODIN flash. If I understand you correctly and the phone goes black during the ODIN flash:eek:thats no good. If its doing it after the ODIN flash, then maybe you still have the "reboot after flash" button ticked. Either way the phone needs to stay in download mode during the entire ODIN flash.

*EDIT*

- If all else fails JTAG! but that should be the last option. There is a fix!

- BUY A USBJIG you can get them from either TeamWhiskey or EDT on their sites. If everyone had one we would never see another

Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamcooks:
You should try the "froyo that does not brick" in the early days of froyo eugene released a froyo package that came with bootloaders. Google ftdnb, it may also be in either bricked or eb's threads

Has anyone gotten dead space to run properly on their nook color? It installed and runs quite well on the nook color, however all i see is white screen. I'm able to move the character around but its difficult due to the graphical issue. Help?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] woot1524:
Just tried it out on mine, running cm7 N157, and it's a no go for me. the game crashes right as the movie starts. Any tips for getting past that?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] caramelzappa:
Same problem for me. The game starts up for a second, I see the logo and then it closes itself.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] fliparsenal:
Make sure you already have the downloaded files installed under "ea" folder
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
I don't even get a movie or white screen... My screen lights up for a few seconds, and then closes the program. No warning or force close, nothing.

This is with multiple settings in Chainfire 3d's newest update. Even if I try to emulate it with the Qualcomm plugin.

Files are on SD card under ea

Edit: Forgot to mention that I tried this on both the .29 kernel and the .32 kernel.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Update: For those who have paid for this game, look for the Hacked Galaxy S apk file and the PowerVR sd card files, works a treat =D. So beautiful! One more reason it's okay I sold my PS3.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] caramelzappa:
Didn't work for me. I launch the game. It checks for updates. I have a black screen, whith what looks like the bottom of a "marker" on the bottom of the screen for a second before it closes. No force close notification or error, the app just isn't on the screen anymore.

Are there any specific CF3D settings you're using? Do you have the EGL driver installed?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Did you make sure to replace the EA sd card data with the PowerVR files? As I made that mistake the first time.

No specific settings in CF3D, in fact, I would venture to say it doesn't need any since my default settings are for tegra, and that's what it's using.

No Idea what the EGL driver is...

Will also mention I am on the .29 kernel right now.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] caramelzappa:
Yeah, I tried the regular SD files as well as the PowerVR files. With both file sets I tried tegra, qualcomm, and PowerVR plugins. No luck. I think I'm just going to give up, maybe I'll play it if I end up getting another tablet or phone down the road. Thanks for your help though!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Sorry =\ I spent a lot of time trying to get it to work as well. I'm sure someone else will read my post and figure out where there's a misconnection.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Why would you use PowerVR data files if you have CF3D set to tegra? I'm not sure how that would work.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Our devices are PowerVR I believe. So it doesn't go through CF3D at all. I was merely mentioning, that I hadn't messed or done anything with CF3D to make it work.

My default settings just happen to be for tegra since I obviously have the tegra games as well.

My only gripe with this game so far... It's almost impossible to play with a touch screen, the controls are just really difficult to grasp. You have to run using your thumb on one side of the screen, while at the same time aiming and shooting with the other thumb. Ammo is even more sparse than the original games, and with how impossible it is to shoot the aliens just right, you never have ammo. Curb stomping requires a swipe, which can lead to a messed up camera and you dead. And the plasma cutter is hit or miss since it's in the corner of the screen, again possibly screwing up the camera.

Got to a point where I just kept running.

Other than that... Impressive graphics that would make any fanboy drool at the chance to play, story line seems pretty eerie and interesting from the first 30mins or so of play. In-ear headphones definitely make it just as traumatizing as the first 2. (Of course, my subwoofer does a much better job at making me jump ;p)

That said, if you still can't get it to work, I would suggest trying on a .29 kernel. Currently using Phiremod 6.2, less of battery, .29 kernel is just a much better kernel for those who aren't looking to not use their nook for long periods of time. N64oid is freakin awesome now ;p. Video is less laggy. So is flash.

Just a thought =D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Goonish:
Great post. I'm untreated (LOL, interested, I'm interested!) does this game support controllers? I haven't played it yet..

Your post makes me want the nook to keep getting better, love my nook.

I don't believe it does, which is unfortunate with the recent release of SixAxis.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] JeramyEggs:
So, could you guys that have this up and running give us detailed instructions on how you got it to run? I have generated my imei number, downloaded and installed chainfire 3d, all of its plug ins, and changed my build prop to a couple of different things. tried a hacked version of the game, galaxy apk, sd cache, vr cache, still no dice. Been at it for like 4 hours, my ocd will not let me walk away.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
How does Zelda OOT runs on your Nook? is it playable?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Since you have been at it for like 4hrs, maybe just for the hell of it, you should try the .29kernel instead and see if that's the missing link.

Will take a look at zelda later, beat it so many times I haven't really tried to play it.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] JeramyEggs:
Thanks Gin for the quick reply. Game looks great on my Dinc. Thanks for the info....
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Lol... Sorry, I want to be of more help, I'm just to worried I might break the current setup that's working. Not only that, I'm pretty tired of flashing on the nook color -_-.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] lowpeezy:
verified last night that dead space will run on phiremod v6.3, but will not run on cm7 rc1 or any of the latest nightlies. if you find the hacked API and powervr files, c3d is not needed. hope this helps, I didn't have **** else to d yesterday BC of the hurricane
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] robertk36:
I can also confirm dead space working on phiremod 6.3. I had the test build running and it was a no go, but i downgraded to 6.3 and it worked like a charm. Its a great game with sweet graphics but controls are a bit funky.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] :
Can someone post a guide as to how they got their Dead Space working? Not sure what files I need...does this even require Chainfire?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Goonish:
Yeah. Please can someone write detailed working instructions, I've tried pretty much everything and can't get this game working!!

Apparently it works fine under stock???
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
Step one, purchase game.

Step two, find hacked apk.

Step three, download APK and PowerVR SD card files.

Step four, move to nook color and install.

Step five, profit.

For these steps to work, you must be on .29 kernel, in my case phiremod 6.2.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Gin1212:
I should mention it's the Galaxy S apk you want, as it's the one that works with the PowerVR files.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Goonish:
Cool, got it to work! Thanks heaps mate.

Hello,

I've rooted my stock 2.3.3 with flash tool, but after the kernel upgrade, the phone isn't recognized by the FlashTool, so I can't ask root access and install xRecovery.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soraxd:
ive never used either rom, so i dont know what to expect with either. my main reason to go to one of these roms is MIUI for the MIUI camera, and CM7 for the ability to use wiimote on it. are either of these features interchangable? which do you guys suggest i go with, based on where each of them are in development?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
MIUI uses cm as a base, so it should have the same bluetooth stack as cm7 thus be able to use the wii mote, though I can't comment on the sgs2 port of MIUI as its a non official port by a chap who's not with the official dev teams.

CM7 is great, some problems with bluetooth and stuff, but miui has the same ones due to a common base as far as I know.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unleashed12:
Im pretty sure you can use the MIUI camera on cm7, could be wrong though. Based off development id go with CM7, more work done on it imo, Nightly updates. Plus it has teamhacksung and the cm7 team devoted to working on it, miui is really based off the work of the cm7/team hack sung team. CM7 would be updated first then the changes would be transferred to miui because its based off the cm7.

Hey guys I found the ultimate fix that remedies the landscape issue and allows you to play the game without chain fire. I received this tip from user Brazooka from another forum, I'm not sure if this fix has been posted here but I'll just add it on in case someone missed it.

"The issue is not the APK but the SD Data...

That's what I did:

- Used v1.1.37 APK cracked by Nops

- SD Data downloaded via Wi-Fi (let the game download)

This way the game works fine with Chainfire3D (Qualcomm plugin)

If you want to run the game without Chainfire:

- download the "SD for ALL" ( Which I will not link here for obvious reasons)in the first topic. Extract ONLY these directories:

\ea\deadspace\published\ParticleBaseTextures

\ea\deadspace\published\texturepacks_ui

\ea\deadspace\published\textures

- overwrite the previous ones, the ones the game itself downloaded from EA servers.

VOILA!"

I haven't put much time into it so if anyone has any issues feel free to let us know.
