OK, so as of this post, I was able to use a bluetooth keyboard with a mouse stick in the middle and access this area with the procedure I mentioned. Now I guess it would just be a matter of getting ahold of the firmware in zip form, putting it on your internal storage, and using this tool? Again, I've never done it, making guesses here.

G01 work with "Touch Panel Version" 3011-4822

G03 work with "Touch Panel Version"3011-4817 and also named "5158N FPC"

And I never see tablets which have touch marked G03, only 5158N FPC-1

Tried both digitizers G01 and G03

Hello,

I'v tried both G01 and G03 version on tablet (with the flex number 5158N FPC-1), but they didn't worked.

The touch panel version is 3011-4822.

Anyone a solution? Or do i need the exact same digitizer number?

Thanks

Best regards,

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
Just kind of curious here as I did have some serious brush with the same issue elsewhere.

This sounds confusing to me. At any rate, I'm just relating what happened in my case. Touchscreen smashed. Swapped it with new one. Dud. Got the Touchscreen PCB replaced. Upon booting, the first thing the device did after the splash screen was update the touchscreen firmware. And I was not even on stock ROM. Works fine thereafter. The custom rom then installed did not have the firmware update function, and I couldn't find a way to extract just the stock touchscreen firmware for comparison purposes.

So just to find out, I flashed the latest stock rom (extracted blob) from Asus site (10.4.2.20) through ADB . Went to Settings/About Tablet, ticked on Firmware Update. Returned with "all firmware up to date." What it tells me is that the newest stock rom contains all up-to-date firmwares, and if it doesn't, it would hunt for current ones via Firmware Update function. Seems both stock rom and the update function would collect hardware info and proceed to install the correct firmware version automatically.

So far as I know, the reported PCBs are all of the same hardware version (v1.3). If the PCB is working, firmware would be updated on its own. Don't need to do nothing. If it doesn't, then you'd have to look at the PCB itself. If you have a working PCB, you might want to put it on a tablet on which the new Touchscreen is NOT working. Just be extra careful in doing this as you might bust it in the process (see this Heading in General Section). Please report any progress if you could.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sak10x:
The right version?

Yes, you need to use the exact replacement for the one in your transformer!

I have found there are 4 distinctly different digitizer versions available:

1) No markings on the ribbon, with a white barcode

2) 69.10I21.G01 markings on the ribbon, with a white barcode

3) 69.10I21.G03 markings on the ribbon, with a white barcode

4) 5158N FPC-1 markings on the ribbon, with a blue barcode

I have been incorrectly sent the .G01 version twice now when the seller was actually showing pictures the 5158N FPC-1 version I need.

If anyone has a source for the 5158N FPC-1 version, I would appreciate you posting it

Etrade Supply very clearly shows the one I need on their site... but sent the G01 version. Now I am working on getting this back to China.... what a mess!

Before ordering, I would STONGLY suggest you check if they really are selling the digitizer shown. There is a lot of "bait and switch" going on.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
How did you find out there are 4 different versions and why are they not compatible with any given tab? Did you do the tests yourself? How do you come to the conclusion that one needs the exact replacement? My original touchscreen had no printing. I replaced it with a GO1 and it worked fine. I'm not questioning your integrity, but in order to help others, you need to chronologically document your findings so it would make sense instead of just winging it as if it's a revelation from above.

Just wondering if anyone has found a source for the "5158n fpc-1" version? Has anyone tried from the shop linked in the above post?

Or got a confirmation from them that it is "5158n fpc-1"

I got one off ebay that didnt work with my tablet. Not sure what version that was because I didnt know there were different versions at the time, I have sent it back to them.

I have had this exact same experience.. Tried G01 and G03 and no go. Original digi is long gone, but purchased last May.

What I don't follow is why the "earlier" model digitizers ,5158N FPC-1, would require the "later" version firmware, 3011-4822 vs. 17.. That just doesn't make sense..
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReidoII:

Yea, saw that seller on ebay.. g01, g03, white label all 70.00, but 5158n almost $300.00.. Pretty f'd up.. Guessing they're out of production.

Sent an email to the seller that provided my g01 and g03 digitizers about the apparent debacle - they say they don't have a 5158n and neither does anyone else. But they will give me a refund.

I also sent a message to the sales dept of the seller at the link provided by esgts to see if the digi in the photo is the actual digi that gets shipped. Will post what I find out..
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
Mine was bought in April '12. It would be safe to assume yours and mine belonged to the same production batch. If its firmware got updated, what prevented yours from doing the same? Did you try to flash it with the latest stock ROM (US 10_4_2_20)? (see my question in the "Back Removed" thread).

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmad86:
I unplugged the digitizer from the TS board (small board to right of battery) and I assure you the tablet was still randomly selecting areas and opening them, etc.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmad86:
Alright, so I have a good TF300T too, and it's updated with TS firmware 4817 which seems to be the newest. Do I need to downgrade it somehow?

All of these tablets are the no label digitizer (well, just have the factory white sticker on them).

Also, another question. Does the motherboard it's self have to link to the firmware on the TS board? As in if I have to downgrade the TS firmware, do I have to downgrade something on the main board too?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
My bad. It should've said 4820, not 2820. 4817 is not the newest. I got it on mine. But when I installed the G01 replacement, the firmware upgraded to 4820. It was done automatically. For your tab to randomly open apps without the dig connected is the strangest thing I've heard. If you check "show touch" in Settings/developer's options/, what do you see?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmad86:
I just tried on two different tablets and 4817 is the newest it finds. I click in about tablet, software update, and nothing. Before it auto updated the firmware to 4817. Am I doing something wrong?

Also, I searched and it seems like developers options are in general settings. I don't have that option.

Edit:

So one of the working tablets has the developer options, but it still won't update to 4020
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stempanssi:
If ur running 4.2 you have to tap build number 7 times in about tablet to bring up dev options...

And the touch firmware should not have anything to do with the firmware updates.

But GD are 4822 and 4820 two different firmwares. As like I said I have the 4822 which did not work with GO1

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmad86:
So how do I update the touch firmware? It's currently 4017.

And ha! That was the problem, I just realized I updated to 4.2 trying to push that firmware update.

These are the no label, not g01 the glass is perfect on them, and they look nice but no touch response at all. I can't find any search results on it but some threads that never had replies.

I think there's maybe 1 g01 that has the issue in the batch.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
Yes, I know 4822 doesn't work with G01. However, I'm saying if you add 4820 to the /touch/ folder through ADB without doing anything else (like erasing 4822), there's no harm that I could have seen: They can coexist in the same folder. Mine currently has 3 different firmwares in there, and such doesn't hamper the touchscreen operation in any way.* I guess the way it works is that as soon as you install a digitizer that matches any of the firmwares (G01 and 4820 for instance), that specific firmware is activated and the touchscreen functions are enabled.

That said, I think you can add 4820 to the folder without a G01 installed. It would just sit there until you put in a dig compatible with any of the 3 firmwares. But why would you want to do that prior to replacing the dig? Well, because if you do Vadim's ADB dance, and can see 4820 in the /touch/ folder afterwards, you know it would work with a G01. Then you can go out and buy one with confidence.:o:o

Ok, so I enabled it to show where it's touching. The digitizer is unhooked from the TS board and it's still showing random dots all over the screen at random different times. It's definitely the board because I then unplug the boards flex cable from the mail board and it stops. I tried a new flex cable from the main board to the TS board and it still spazzed out. Crazy.

Sent from my Note 2
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
It feels like the firmware resides in the TS board because once you get it working, flashing other ROMS don't affect it. In my case, I was on a custom ROM when I replaced it, and it updated on its own. Which means it's not dependent on the main ROM. I used a root explorer to copy the .ekt file over but the message kept popping up with "permission denied."

Huh? Who's he? Could you relate in details what you did now? Did you have the .ekt file in the platform-tools folder? What did the screen say,if anything, when you executed the commands? Did you check the /touch/ folder afterwards to see if the 4820 got pushed into place? Describe the whole process with returns on your PC monitor please.

Looks like you didn't read the whole thread and that's ok. Time permitting though, do it so you know what you're getting yourself into. If you'd had the tabs work before ( as in you didn't acquire them in their present conditions), and the problem with one right now is just the cracked screen, then I would suggest you not do anything with the ROMS until you can get the hardware of one tab working again. And no, you don't need to swap the TS boards as they not affected by the ROMS on the mainboards. But be careful and follow the "guideline" from previous posts and make sure you have the right firmware for the TS board.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
Are you on stock rom? If you are, can you use a root explorer to go the /etc/firmware/touch/ folder to see if the 4820.ekt file is in there? If it is, and the touchscreen still doesn't work, then the problem is likely hardware-related. You need to check each component again. Did you turn off the service switch before replacing the dig? If not, you'd then need to inspect the mainboard (See post # 119, p. 12 by Yuraterm) to see if any component got cooked. If yes, then evidently the screen wouldn't function. I've yet to see a TS board that's f.. 'd by the process, but there have been reports that other parts would get damaged, albeit not invariably, if you do it while the tab is fed with current from the attached battery.

It's means that you somehow updated updated the wrong firmware. I had(or have) the same problem.

It's probably needs to be done from tf700 device.

I tryed to flash tf700 firmware on tf300 but I can't root it. What we need is a tf700 firmware on the tf300 or change the "fill the blank" code to flash the TS PCB to 4020 back. Basically, it's the way the driver and the software(touch_fw_update) communicates with the device(TS PCB)

No I wouldn't mind, except I am on Baked 8 right now and the firmware folder shows nothing regarding touch panel.

When I have the time to reflash it with stock, I should be able to tell for sure. Sorry Stem. Have you tried to flash yours yet?

EDIT: I reflashed the tab with stock 104220 and am enclosing a snapshot of the touch firmware page. I remember distinctly when I first opened that folder before adding 4820, it showed 0000, then 7038, then 4822. Thereafter, but before first reboot, it was 0020, 7038, 4822.
