LCD vs touch screen

Ok I am sort of stuck so I would appreciate any help on this. I bought a touch screen for replacement, but as soon as I opened the back cover I realized my phone doesn't look like what's on this guide. I have a HTC Desire C. I was able to search Youtube and found a video with directions to disassemble Desire C all the way down to the touch screen. However, the guy in the video is trying to replace the piece that's black in color, just before the touch screen (which I assume is the LCD), then this question occurred to me: if only part of the touch screen of my phone is unresponsive, how do I figure out if the problem is with the touch screen or the LCD? Thank you.

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

Ok I sort of answered my own question. The screen display is ok, so based on that the LCD should be fine. Regarding the adhesive tape for Desire C, Amazon sells some generic adhesive tape 2mm in width, does anybody know if that's workable?
[Desire General] repairsuniverse:
Yes, that should work, but if that adhesive isn't adequate we also sell the proper adhesive that will help with your repair. A link to our site can be found in our signature below.

I just got finished replacing my top screen on my HTC Desire 510, when I turn the phone on, I can hear it turn on but the screen stays black, any idea what could be wrong? I've checked the cable connections. Other than a shattered top screen it worked fine before. Is there anyway to check the screen itself, to make sure I didn't receive a bad one? I was careful changing it, and didn't run into any problems doing so. Thanks

Hi, I've installed MX video player, mobo player and Dice player onto my A500 and I've been trying to watch live video streams from football matches using the said video players but I keep getting the following messages "sorry video cannot be opened" even though the links are live and working. I usually copy then paste the links into the Network Stream option from the video players. I'm on Stock Acer Honeycomb 3.2.1 and unrooted.

Is there a way to make these players stream links from football websites or are there other suitable options? Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] wolverine423:
What's wrong with using flash player in the browser?
[Acer Iconia A500] kgry:
A lot of the streaming sites use third party plugins that can't be installed on the tablet. Had that problem trying to stream from my PS3.

Just curious if anyone has been able to get N64oid playable on their Touchpad.

I'm running CM9 nightlies, perhaps I have some settings not set properly.

I also have chainfire which may or may not help. But it would be a riot if I could get this working.
[TouchPad General] Remolten:
Yes, I use n64oid on the Touchpad with not problems. It works great and has never malfunctioned. Just search and download off the internet. My favorite website to get roms it MOD EDIT (NO WAREZ LINKS ALLOWED) . If you need any other help just ask me because it works great for me.
[TouchPad General] MeetFace:
Interesting, I have several ROMs, maybe they are just bad ones.

Would you be able to point me a download of a Rom that works smoothly for you?

Thanks!

Also, which ROM are you running on your TouchPad?
[TouchPad General] Alex_32571:
We can't give you any links to ROMs.

Just google them.

Try the basics, Mario 64, Mario Kart, etc.

I've played Majora's Mask, and it runs pretty smooth for an emulator. I overclocked it to 1500mhz and it runs smoothly. That's a higher than average n64 game, I think.

I'd invest in a wiimote/classic controller for heavy gaming if that's what you're into. Onscreen controls are often hard for n64 games.

I'm running the latest official nightly of CM9 (3/29)
[TouchPad General] Infinite Jest:
I keep getting major slowdowns at 2 frames skipped but incredibly chopping gameplay at 3+ in majora's mask using 3/29 office dial @ 1.5ghz. Basically unplayable. Ocarina works well enough, though.
[TouchPad General] theronkinator:
Tried a few on Gingerbread 3.5, video ran fine, sound a bit choppy, certainly playable though, used a wiimote.

Has anyone gotten haptic feedback to work with thumb keyboard? Mine will only work after a cache wipe and then it stops working again.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] cdzo72:
I'm in the same situation friend, but as far as I can remember, Haptic with TKB has never worked since I had my TouchPad but I haven't ever used any other ROM besides CM9 to test either
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] Smac7:
ive tried aokp and cm9, same problem.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] chinkster:
I believe its a problem with cm9 itself. After the screen turns off the vibrate will stop working until you restart

Hi,

I am experiencing strongly problem with GPS right now. On my N1 I have MIUI.us 2.3.23 (GB) and for some time I can't use GPS applications (except Google Maps which works perfectly!). I was trying Runkeeper, Endomondo, GPSFix - always the same problem - GPS can't find actual fix. I tried wipe to factory data reset, reflash - still nothing. But, Google Maps as I said earlier works great! It takes about 5-10 seconds to find actual position. I have no idea what could be wrong...

any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

dzordzyk
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kannibalism:
i had a problem with GPS to it was giving me inaccurate data. The problem for me was that MIUI`s GPS settings was for north america i changed the settings to europe

Steps:

1) go to settings

2) my location

3) GPS configuration

NTP Server Address: 3.europe.pool.ntp.org

SUPL Server Address: supl.google.com

SUPL Server Port: 7276

When applying those settings my GPS readings became accurate
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logan3D:
I have the same problem.

Nexus one,

newer version of miui ( 2.3.30) it has the gps setup you just posted by default.

No gps fix on copilot, not sure if google maps catches it (it does by the internet connection on maps, but the gps is not catching a fix)

any other solutions ? i did full wipe aswell and no luck :(

Oh, and im in uk, but just drove through whole eu union and it wasnt working in poland, germany, belgium and france)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpm:
I used 2.3.30 from miuiandroid.com and GPS worked fine for me. Perhaps give that one a go.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logan3D:
I do have 2.3.30 from their website as i posted :| the damn thing just doesnt work, i even did radio re-install as i had the newest one and still same **** :/ i remember i was playing at some point back with the roms and it just stopped working, but i didint care at the moment as gmaps was enough for me. Now that i have a car its v. annoying.

In the co-pilot and gps test it doesnt show any sattelites at all. I surely hope its a software issue, but how do i go about fixing it ? what else can i do apart from reflashing roms, and radios ?

Oh so far i tried it on miui and cyanogen 7.. no luck..

Hi there guys

Post what you want in the next update for your rom

state your rom and what you want improved
[Acer Iconia A500] 10507:
What is the point of this post? Are you going to cook us the greatest, fastest, and bug free ROM?

As we can see, all the developers are doing whatever they can to improve the stability of the ROM everyday. And every single day, their ROM are improving beyond anyone's expectation.

Please let the developers do their miracle. Demanding for this and that is not what we want to see here, as the developers are doing this for free.

[HTC Wildfire S] goodguy25:
So, I basically understand the procedures to load a custom ROM on to this phone but what I don't understand is if it is possible to return it back to its original state (HBOOT and stock ROM, no unlocked bootloader). Any guidance...

I know to get stock, I will have to get a RUU (but I haven't seen one for my carrier (it's a UK based one)) and I don't want to use a Goldcard incase I need to send the phone off
[HTC Wildfire S] striker280:
before you load up a custom rom, make a nandroid of your stock rom

and i think there is a program with aroma somewhere in the forum where you can control your boot loader to change the word at the top from unlocked to locked, or relocked
[HTC Wildfire S] goodguy25:
Well, all I need now is a way to re-lock the bootloader and get it at the version it is at and a way to remove root so that I can flash my first ROM

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gurgl:
So every now and then my GNote has been acting really wierd, it's as if someone is plugging in and out an micro USB cable in quick successions. Now i have a youtube video of it, but im not allowed to post links so i can't show you it here, but search youtube for "0987789023572821" and it will pop up. I'm sorry for the lousy quality and lightning, i couldn't help it since the problem rarely presents itself when im ready with my camera...

So you know, i'm not touching the phone and nothing is plugged in, it's doing it all by itself.

Obviously i suspected that there was dirt in the USB jack, and i spent quite alot of time making it super-clean. I've also suspected the micro-usb assembly was somehow damaged so i opened the phone up and heated the solderposts to re-melt the solder on the micro usb jack. I really couldn't spot any visible damage on the jack itself or the micro usb assembly.

So either this has something to do with software or its damaged without me beeing able to see it, what do you guys think? Has anyone experienced anything like this?

Also, is it possible to buy a new micro USB assembly for the GNote? I've been looking en ebay but can't find anything else then digitizers and screen replacements.

Thanks!

Are you using a custom kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gurgl:
Thanks for the response guys.

I'm not using a custom kernel or rom or anything. The phone is from germany and come to think of it, i might have updated the firmware before this thing started to appear. I'll try to flash in a new firmware to see if that fixes it, thanks again :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Try changing the aspect ratio on your TV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikeairj:
It's mostly likely an overscan issue. See if you can change the scan mode or something like that (maybe zoom?) on your TV. On my Samsung HDTV, I can switch between 4:3, 16:9, or "Just Scan". The "Just Scan" option fixed the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Djanvk:
I tried changing my size on the TV and didn't work still has part of the stream cut off on all sides. Is there some setting on the Nexus that might adjust it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikeairj:
There's no option on the nexus that I know of. I believe you have to change it from your TV. Maybe google up your TV and see how other people solve their overscan issue?

Here's more information about why TVs have overscan:

I hope this is In the right area I rooted my fire and installed a custom rom added fff and the recovery ect well yesterday when I press power nothing happens when I plug it up to power it turns on flashes the press power for recovery square then shuts down flashes it again it does this over and over never ending it wont stay on long enough for me to do anything I tried letting it charge all night I tried different power cords when it plugs to my pc it does the same anyone have any ideas
[Kindle Fire General] Qasimja:
Also want to add I rooted it with the utility over 3 months ago it was working fine til yesterday I made no changes to it
[Kindle Fire General] Laquox:
I would suggest trying this first as it sounds like you are in the recovery loop. Another useful tool is to "re-stock" it using this utility. Maybe not the best idea if you haven't done a recent backup but if you have tried everything else these usually work to get you going again.

Also it can't hurt to go through this thread and see if someone else has suffered the same problem. Between these 3 threads you should get your kindle working again.
[Kindle Fire General] Qasimja:
Ill try but it doesn't stay on long enough for me to even try to connect to it via usb its rebooting so fast thanks for the info
[Kindle Fire General] Qasimja:
yea i just says waiting for device and the others say device not found using that utility i dont even get the promt letting me know it plugged to the pc via usb
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
You have a dead or near dead battery. Plug in the oem charger and see if it will charge up.
[Kindle Fire General] Laquox:
Try this and when you plug it up via the OEM charger does it turn on or does the light on the bottom at least light up?
[Kindle Fire General] Qasimja:
I did that and im doing that now it does a never ending cycle the light turns green it turns on fire triangle that says press power for recovery then shuts off then does it again then shuts off over and over it did this all night it

doesnt respond to the power button the only time i get any type of response is when i plug it up to the outlet or usb cord on pc then it does the never ending loop like i explained

i tried the oem charger and another charger also tried another usb cord plugged to pc does the thing every time
[Kindle Fire General] Laquox:
Odd if it's turning on your PC should be able to make a connection long enough to adb it. Have you tried pressing the power button a few times to get into "recovery" mode? The exact instructions are "press the power button when the light dims green" however I have noticed it works for me if I just gently press the power button a few times once I turn it on.

Also have you tried a "hard reset"? Basically you hold the power button down for 20-30 seconds until the kindle turns completely off.

Barring this I am drawing a blank. I am only just now learning the ins and out of this system.
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
If it won't charge on its own, you're probably going to have to make/buy a factory cable and try it this way...

Good luck.

EDIT: You might actually be able to do the above without a factory cable since you have FFF installed. This is all just "in theory" to me because I've never encountered this exact problem.

Unplug your device

Get your command prompt ready (make sure you are in the directory that fastboot is located)

Type the following command ( but don't hit enter yet):

fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

Plug your USB cable into your computer first, then your device

When it comes on, within the first few seconds of seeing the yellow triangle, hit enter, then reboot.

Plug it into your charger.

[Kindle Fire General] googlelover:
Sounds like a problem I had, unfortunately it was because I had completely submerged my kindle in water on accident and the battery got fried. It would boot, I would see FFF then it would restart... gotten your kindle wet at all?
