Screen issue

So, I just flashed my M99 phone with the latest rom but I am having screen issues.

My touch screen response is upside down! For instance, the "slide" to unlock" is at the bottom of the screen but in order to unlock the screen I have to slide across the top of the screen to get to the main menu. The same goes for all other functions which is quite frustrating. The home, vol +, vol -, mute, and power button all work like the should but the touch screen response is upside down.

I also noticed that when you turn the phone to the side or upside down, it does not rotate. I made sure to even go into settings,brightness and turned on auto-rotate screen.

I'm not sure what to do at this point. I have email fastcardtech.com but I have not received a response yet.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

*UPDATE* I just went into the diagnostic mode (Power plus Vol+) and did the touchmode test in freemode and when I move my finger down the touch screen, the line is drawn upward and vice versa so there is something up with my screen. Could it be a video driver issue or is it hardware related?

I have the same problem, after rooting my M99 the touch screen is upside down, really annoying.

Please advice.

Has anyone been able to find a fix for the inverted screen? I have the same problem and can't find any new Roms. The ROM that I flashed said mt6513 but we have the 6573, would that be what caused the problem?

market issue problem solved on 98

translated from a website with google translate: >>>>>>>>>

Instructions: Market Update from 1.82 M98 Google 4GS + on Market 3.1.3

Hi,

after me this forum has helped a number of times, I would also like to make my small contribution. Curious how (s) so now time is, I wanted to have the latest version of the Market on my M98. My phone is the way with the standard Android GUI installed in version 2.2.1. So range is and googled, with moderate success, the thing does not let install, getting the message

"Application not installed" ......

After some tests I did but then managed.

- rooting phone with "z4root"

- Complete backup of apps + system! (in my Titanium Pro version costs)

- install Root Explorer

- Market apk version 3.1.3 Download (Google helps ) -> apk to SD card Copy - Start Titanium Backup -> Select Market (hold your finger for a long extended menu) - -> "Backup / Restore"> "Convert to user-application"

- back to "Backup / Restore" -> Market Briefly - > select "Uninstall" -> Confirm messages

- Root Explorer run (charge) -> "Mount R / W" -> change to sdcard and apk start - Install Application -> Confirm messages

- Start Titanium Backup -> Backup / Restore -> Market Select (with the fingers long and hold for extended menu) - "Convert to system application"> - Market Start -> done to get the old market

again, just uninstall the new Market in Titanium Backup and then from the backup list Old Market restore. Personally I went back to the old version back to me the new Market was chaotic and colorful. applies, "you can, but you do not" have. course you are at your own risk, that in the execution Instructions! Greetings verdeler

even other version of market works on my M98... 3.7.15 or higher...

simply just convert the actual market to "user application" using titanium backup after rooting with z4root. then uninstall the market... then install a latest version...

for other issues related to rom update.zip and market fix

type " M99 Google 4S+ Phone – Android Market Fix (Video demo) " on google and the result are there from talkinmobi dot com

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritchrocko:
when i got my moto defy for xmas last year, i had my older brother root it for me. i really had no idea how to safely use root, but i liked being able to overclock and all the other features. the phone was a little buggy just because it was on 2.1 and no updates yet. once an update came out, i installed it and got a great performance increase. later, i realized that it was not working right. whenever i hold down an on-screen button, the touch sensitivity "timed out" after only about 1.5 seconds, unless i kept my finger moving around on the screen. and every few times i reboot the phone, this glitch goes away until i reboot again and then it is back. root was also taken away, and none of the one click roots work. also, when the 2.2 update came out, i got the error message when rebooting after installing the update and it did not work. i tried wiping the phone several times, no luck. i am now interested in fashing a custom rom and rerooting. would this fix it? there must be a special way to do it since my phone is so messed up. i would like 2.2 or 2.3, and 720p vid would be cool too. the version i have now is 2.1.1, so can anybody suggest a rom that is stable and will work ok?. one more question, when i flash a rom, will it leave my apps and settings alone or do i have to start over?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Proverbs2:
Have you tried using SuperOneClick to root the phone? (You'll need to install the Motorola drivers for it to work.)

In most cases, you will lose your apps and settings when you flash a new ROM. But, if you figure out a way to root it, you can back everything up in Titanium Backup first, and restore it afterward.

If you just want to start from scratch, try wiping everything in the stock recovery. To get into the stock recovery, power off the phone, hold in the volume- button then also press and hold the power button. After a few seconds you should see a triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle, and a little green android guy below that. Then press the volume+ and volume- buttons at the same time, and a menu should appear. Use the volume buttons to navigate the menu, and the power button to select an option. Select "wipe data/factory reset" and also "wipe cache partition".

If that doesn't work, I'd recommend flashing a new Froyo sbf using RSD Lite. Here's a quick tutorial:

1) Install the Motorola drivers and RSD Lite on your computer. See this guide for installing Moto drivers and RSD Lite:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853674

2) Download the sbf file that you want to flash, and save it to your PC. Many sbf files can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=966537 WARNING: If you flash a full stock SBF file, in most cases you will lose the ability to downgrade to earlier firmware versions. NEVER flash a full stock SBF file with a higher Android version than 2.2 (Froyo). Any stock firmware with Android version 2.3 or higher is made for the DEFY+, which has different camera hardware than the DEFY. If you flash the stock DEFY+ firmware, your camera will be broken and you won’t be able to downgrade back to Froyo again.

3) Make sure the phone battery is fully charged. Power off your phone, then hold in the volume+ button and the power button at the same time. After about 5 seconds, release the buttons. The bootloader should display – it will show the version and a battery check. (If that doesn’t work, pull the battery, then put it back in while holding the volume+ and power buttons.)

4) Start RSD Lite on your computer, then connect the phone with a USB cable. In RSD Lite, the Status column should say “Connected…”. Click on that, and some information about your phone should show up under Device Properties. Next, click the “…” button and browse to select the SBF file that you want to install. After opening it, information about the file should show up under File Properties. Then click “Start” and wait for the flashing process to complete. Wait until the phone has fully rebooted and RSD Lite says “Pass” before closing RSD Lite and disconnecting the USB cable. As an extra precaution, I usually power off the phone before disconnecting the cable.

Then you should be able to root, install custom recovery, and flash custom ROMs to your heart's content.

Good luck!

Thanks! Sorry to be a noob, but how do I know if a rom /sbf will work? Doesn't it matter what android version I have now? 2.1.1 is it

Most custom ROMs for the defy require that you upgrade to Android 2.2 (Froyo) first. I can explain how to do that, if you like. What country are you from, and what cellular service are you using?

all this stuff is like you are speaking french to me. could somebody link me a sbf that has 720p video capability, 2.2 of some sort, and that is going to work with my current version(2.1.1)? i am still confused if the glitch i described will be fixed, and if it matters that i installed an update from motorola after i rooted. i really hate to be such a noob, but i don't have time to read all the guides and stuff. thanks for all the help, i just need a little more detail as i am very new to all this. I have T-Mobile USA

and one more thing: i just looked at some of the sbf's in the guide you showed me, the only 2.2 US file was from Megaupload, and F***King SOPA shut it down. now we feel the effects of this horrible law.

[Off-topic] WillEat4F00d:
Okay here's the thing:

I have an assignment in Java class that's due in 1.5 hours and figured that this would be the best place to ask since you guys are (hopefully) good at this kind of stuff. :D

Here's the code:

/**

* Exercise 3.

*

* Complete the setBalances method below to set all accounts in an array to the specified value.

*

* The test methods should pass.

*

*/

public class AccountMethods {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Account[] accounts = {new Account(100, "joe"),

new Account(200, "jane"),

new Account(300, "jerry")};

testSetBalances(accounts, 50);

testBalanceNonNegative();

}

public static void setBalances(Account[] accounts, double value) {

double balance = 0;

for (int i = 0; i < accounts.length; i++) {

balance += accounts.getBalance();

}

}

public static boolean testSetBalances(Account[] accounts, double value) {

setBalances(accounts, value);

for (int i = 0; i < accounts.length; i++) {

if (accounts.getBalance() != value) {

System.out.println("testSetBalances fails on element " + i);

return false;

}

}

System.out.println("testSetBalances passes.");

return true;

}

public static boolean testBalanceNonNegative() {

Account a = new Account(100, "jim");

a.setBalance(-100);

if (a.getBalance() < 0) {

System.out.println("testBalanceNonNegtaive fails");

return false;

} else {

System.out.println("testBalanceNonNegative passes.");

return true;

}

}

}

The bold part is what I'm suppose to be working with, but I can't get it to pass in the testSetBalances method. I don't know if I'm explaining this right, but when I'm compiling the code, it's suppose to say:

testSetBalances passes

But instead, it's saying: testSetBalances fails on element 0

Don't worry about the other parts of the code because the assignment for that is done already.

You can recharge Xoom using outlets in galleys area (the plane's kitchen), or even in the toillets. Just ask to any flight attendent.

Don't waste your money in spare batteries.
[Xoom Accessories] ScottC:
I use the Energizer XP18000 with (free) Xoom tip. Yes - at around $149 it is not cheap, but it also charges phones, laptops and its 18,000mAh battery is great for keeping your Xoom going for a couple of days :)

Tips are free for life (with $4 shipping) and it comes with a massive assortment of tips in the box. Well worth the investment.
[Xoom Accessories] person65278:
You should also look into the asus mobile keyboards. I know they have a battery, and can charge some devices that there connected to.
[Xoom Accessories] gstyle40:
Does the Asus keyboard actually work with a Xoom? Would be rather pointless if it doesnt
[Xoom Accessories] kunddizzle:
nope. Asus is no-go. It can charge USB 2.0 devices, but the main connecter is a special Asus one, only for Asus EEE pad devices.

Best chance is to perhaps make your own connector, e.g. with an old Nokia charger (cannot confirm it myself) and one of those normal usb power banks.
[Xoom Accessories] kunddizzle:
I actually orderer this for fun..

No idea if it would work. and its not the highest capacity, put for 6£ in all its worth a try.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300648869804

if it can deliver 1.5a without exploding, it would charge the xoom 30-50%

im also gonna try with the Nokia tip as well! seems to fit.

Wish me luck :)

Nokia Tip works with xoom, confirmed here:

hi, i have the last pc fighter rom, which is based on cm, so i can overlock the phone with that settings

but i wanted to know which are the risks of it

and how do i do it

i mean, the min frequency is at 245 and max at 600, if i put the next higher frequency, do i need to put a higher min frequency too?

is there a rule or something while doing this? i mean, if i high something, i high/low another thing, and stuff ?

would be nice if you could tell me :)

i want to play smooth on fpse, thingh that i could get with an overlock

thank you!
[GT540 Optimus General] MrAndroid12:
Just get setcpu and do what ever you like. Play around with the frequency until you find it unstable
[GT540 Optimus General] -Grift-:
or there are lots of free overclock apps out there but setcpu has the best interface :)
[GT540 Optimus General] bataya:
No need for external app, increse max in small steps to see what is your cpu max, when you found max stabile speed enable set on boot and that is it.

[Epic 4G General] Trident:
My EPIC got broken by a family member last week. That night, I went to www.phoneclaim.com as suggested by a local Sprint associate. I filled out the forms after reading all the nice comments saying how fast it was.

Every time I went to check back, I got a message saying the phone was out of stock and it would take 1-3 business days from the claim to ship.

At the end of business today, I called them, to find out that it was an erroneous message.

At the end, when they asked if I had any questions, I asked why this was so easy for the phone rep when I was getting those messages? And there was also a note on the website that was meant to discourage calling, by saying that the phone reps didn't have any more information than what I was seeing. Obviously wrong.

I was told that the EPIC was a high demand phone, and it was being used to replace other phones, so the system was putting claims for it on "hold". Sounds like bull to me.

Anyway- just sayin'- if you break yours, don't bother with an online claim, just call.

[Epic 4G General] CapsLockKey:
This is why I don't bother with insurance on phones. If I do something to my phone that destroys it, that's my own damn fault and I'll bite the bullet to spend full price on a replacement, get a used one on Craigslist or just activate an old phone in a kitchen drawer. If the phone is defective, that's what manufacturer warranties are for. Now if the insurance guaranteed a new replacement with any sort of claim, I might consider it, but I know too many people who got burned by these companies with ****ty refurbished replacments.
