Went from 4817 that I had no touch on

Now, I am on 4820 thanks to the flash through adb on here and my touch screen is cspazzing out. I flashed it the first time, then I thought maybe because the screen was dirty and flashed again clean as could be.

Then, I unhooked the digitizer and did the firmware flash again.. Same problem.

The touch is scattered all over the screen too. No same place.

I am on 4.2.1

Any suggestions?

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
If you unhook the dig cable and still have problems with ghost touches, then it's most likely hardware; flashing won't help. In addition, you shouldn't experiment with stuff you know nothing about that's not ever been tried by anyone else, unless you have a back-up plan in place. I saw your posts elsewhere about flashing back to stock, and it seems your knowledge about the workings of these tabs is quite limited. You can't keep doing crazy things and hope somehow that members would provide you with a panacea because there ain't one.

You said you had 2 tabs. Do you know if the TS Board on one of them is working? Don't shoot from the hip, and drop your shotgun approach. Take one tab at the time. Problems might not be similar, so lumping them together only confuses you further.:cool:

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.fast:
My Asus TF300T has been starting to act up lately. When I access the settings menu faint grey lines start to appear which run across the screen. When I change to portrait the lines disappear for a split-second and then reappear black. When accessing Google Play I see the same thing. The power menu and other menus appear to have a pixelated background and are 'blocky'. It also happens in the ASUS File Manager on the white background (faint lines).

I am confused as to what's causing them. It appears to me to be a graphics-related issue as I have taken screenshots and viewed them on my computer and they appear pixelated on the TF300T but not on my computer. I have cold booted and performed a full factory reset. I have also switched to Safe Mode with no change (lines still appearing). I am using the Jelly Bean 4.2 launcher and am stock. The tablet hasn't been dropped and has been protected. It's only 4 months old and I bought it from Argos in the UK.

You might try hitting it with some circuit cooler (with the cover removed of course) to see if its heat related - an upside down can of liquid air would do it. Problem is, if it is heat related, you need to provide better heat sinking, which likely means ripping your warranty sticker to get access to the IC's underneath the copper heat sink in attempt to provide better heat dissipation with thermal compound or something.

Reseating the video connector to see if its a bad connection is another viable option without creating evidence of tampering and potentially voiding warranty.

Hope this helps.

Facts:

1> Customer brought in a TF300T with a cracked and non-functional digi

2> Replaced 5158N digi with new G01

3> Touch doesn't work

4> After reading this thread, learned that digi board needs reflashing

5> Can't tell whether OS is JB or ICS, and don't have mouse or dock to control TF300T

6> As far as I can tell, device is not unlocked

7> When connected to PC via USB, TF300T configures itself as "media device"

Q's:

1> Is it possible to re-flash the firmware onto the digitizer controller board using only a win7 pc and a usb cable?

2> If I need to control the tf300t, is there a way to copy and auto-install synergy client android?

No. If the Rom is not unlocked, adb debugging won't be enabled. And you need root.

Get yourself a dock or the usb connector for a mouse
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
I'm a bit confused here. Do you currently have 4817 or are you looking for it? If the latter, ask kmad86 (on the previous page) to extract it for you. He did have it on one of the boards in his possession last time I spoke with him. Otherwise, there were some reports that 4820 would activate the G03, though I'm not 100% positive since I myself do not have a G03 to test for you. But since you're stuck, you might as well add 4820 to the /touch/ folder to see if it helps. I say this with the usual disclaimer "Do it at your own risk...blah blah". Good luck.

For G01 digitizer: See pages 14 & 15. If you're on stock rom 104220 and below (I don't touch official 4.2 - it's mined land and not that great),

1. In tab, tick usb debugging in /settings/developer options.

2. Install ADB drivers (universal naked drivers)

3. install SBK, or at least platform-tools in C: (I used Windows).

4. Copy 4820.ekt (check earlier posts by Vadim for this) to plartform-tools folder

5. Connect tab to PC thru USB; check to make sure tab shows up in Windows as ADB device. Windows command: ADB devices

6. Follow Vadim's script on page 14.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkizmo:
I did as suggested here and I had full success!

I had a cracked 5158N FPC-1 digitizer and swapped it with a G01 digitzer and did the firmware update.

1 - Bought cheapest G01 Digitizer I could find on eBay for 47$ including shipping

2 - Bought the cheapest USB host adapter (2 usb ports) I could find on ebay (11$)

3 - Did the digitizer swap hardware wise.

4 - Use the USB host adapter to use my mouse to root my device, installed Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip with the recovery boot.

5 - Did the instructions from the first link I posted. The SU command allowed by the step above is CRITICAL. If you don't do that, but still rooted your device, you'll get a success message when updating the touchscreen firmware, but it won't work.

Now my only annoyance is that I reinstalled the LCD screen a bit crooked :p

My typo error. It should've read SDK not SBK. Go to this site:

1. After installing the Naked Drivers, download the ADT Bundle for your OS (Windows or Linux). Unzip (W) o untar (L) the bundle, and transfer

the platform-tools folder to C:\ (Windows), or any folder in Linux. Unless you feel proficient in Linux, stick with Windows.

2. Download the 4820.ekt file in this thread, copy it to the platform-tools folder;

3. in Windows run, type "cmd" (w/o the quotes); right click on cmd click run as administrator;

Hi all,

I read about 12 of the 24 pages and didnt see an answer except for some arguments in the first few pages.

Problem: Broken digitizer with just white sticker

Replaced with G03 and screen would work for about 30 seconds then would stop working. I turned the developer setting on so i could see when the screen was touched. I noticed that after about 30 seconds when it stopped working i would see 3 dots (dots show where screen is being touched) in a horizontal line across the upper middle of the screen.

I am returning the G03 digitizer and i was wondering if a G01 would work?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuraterm:
It means that your digitizer have revision G03

It seems, you have a hardware problem, not software. Carefully inspect all connections between boards and touchscreen.

Did you check touchscreen work before installation?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshhud:
What should I be checking exactly. Everything looks fine on the boards and the digitizer.

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 AM ----------

Also I was thinking it was because I was using the G03 when I had the white sticker digitizer. Would it have not worked at all if that was the case?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshhud:
I thought the "white sticker" Digitizer and G03 were two different ones. The reason i say this is because my ribbon has two holes punch in it and the G03 does not. But i did find a G01 with the holes punched in it on ebay.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuraterm:
G01 and G03 is fully compatible. Your problem is not touchscreen revision. Check all connectors, how deeply they are inserted.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshhud:
they are in as far as they can go. you can barely see the white line that is on the ribbon. from what im reading i thought only certain digitizers worked for certain tabs. its just odd because it seems to only have issues when i go to do certain things. then i have to manually reset the tab for it to work again. why would that be hardware and not software?

---------- Post added at 05:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 AM ----------

so i reinstalled the digitizer and if i touch certain spots on the screen thats when the dots appear as if it is being touched. i can still use the home, back, and settings buttons but none of the app icons or app drawer work.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuraterm:
You may also change your touchscreen firmware. As I told before, version 4820 works with all known touchscreen revisions. Maybe it will help.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
I presently have an Asus TF that gives the same ghost touches after being turned on for a while. Then only certain areas of the screen remain responsive. I flashed different roms to see if the problem is recurrent across the board and it is. After numerous tries, I'm 95% certain it's the touchscreen. So Yuraterm is 95% right in determining the problem is hardware-related. There's always a chance that the touchscreen is defective out of the box, and not a question of compatibility. Hairline cracks, non-continuity, or improper grounding hard to detect with naked eyes would produce that.

What you can do is try some different roms and not install fancy apps to find out if you can replicate the issue. If yes, then more likely than not, it's hardware. So far as the daughter card, from what I can glean from personal experience as well as others', either it works or it don't. For now, we can rule that possibility out.

The white marks on the digitizer's ribbons should line up with the edge of the connectors, barely touching them. If they totally disappear inside, you've pushed too hard, and you'd bend the connector pins that way. I should know; I've done it.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshhud:
Ok well I am returning the digitizer. My next question is would a G01 work will my tab as well? Also I downloaded fruit ninja and then made the screen stop working( by touching where the white dots always appear). Then I opened the app and I was able to play the game. So it seems the only problem is on the home screen. I find that really odd.... but sometimes the whole screen stops working. So I'm lost.

Looks like your TS controller firmware is dameged or can't be determend by the touch_fw_update utility. The common hardware coil failure is not an option because the device itself gets detected. I tried to find firmware version in the etk file with a hex editor, but didn't find it.

TWRP without the touchscreen

This thread has been a great help so far- and I now have a brand new G01 digi installed, got the device unlocked but am having issues with getting root access so I can do the final steps to flash the Digirom to the proper 4820 version and hopefully get my touchscreen to work again.

My problem is that TWRP is touch based, and though I have a USB mouse and keyboard- none of them gives me any response in TWRP although they work if I boot android.

Should they work ? the mouse is a logitech wireless- and it's worked do far on all devices I've plugged it into- the keyboard is wired and does light up, but give me no responses (though it could be me not knowing some secret shortcuts)

I couldn't get CWM to work or downgrade to an earlier TWRP (think earlier versions had volumerocker controls)

Can I try using Moomanager or the terminal under android to flash the digitizer rom even without root ?

Any ideas ?

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
I'm not sure why you need TWRP to flash the touchscreen firmware. If you have a rom installed and can boot to it, you do it from your PC or terminal. TWRP will not respond to a mouse or keyboard. I had a dock and had to resort to CMW for flashing roms while my touchscreen was still inoperative. Once again, my daughter card upgraded to a correct firmware while on a custom rom. If you're on an official below 4.2, you certainly can do it from your PC.

Mysterious why CWM didn't work for you. In any case, you can access fastboot (USB icon, or Volume Down + Power on 4.2), then flash the official blob from PC. Get the TS to work first, then you can worry about the rom.
