[General Questions and Answers] xperiaminipro86:
Hi everyone.

I am planning to substitute original stock rom [Olivetti_OP110.20111006.45] from olivetti 110 tablet [tegra 2] with the german clone Medion Lifetab P9514 one, which has the possibility to be upgraded to 4.0.4... In fact, olivetti stopped upgrading my tablet with a buggy 3.2.

By the way i've read something about backing up my stock rom and bootloader with nvflash so I can go back to the original tablet, but i have no clue on how to do it. I want to try to change the rom, but i want to be sure i can revert all the changes i do.

Can you help me?

Also, does anybody have the 3.1 stock rom [Olivetti_OP11020110719.2] ? even if it was not 4.0.x at least it was bug free....
[Nexus 7 General] rosebud:
Thanks for this. Could you let us know when you went through the downgrade and how long you have been without phantom touches? After a factory reset, mine was fine for two days on 4.21.. Not questioning the fix, but just want to make sure before I do yet another wipe :)
[Nexus 7 General] Boatski:
I immediately updated to 4.2.1 when I received my Nexus 7 two weeks ago. I only began to have the phantom touch issues when I put SmoothROM on my Nexus 7 two days ago. I'm currently in the process of restoring back to the stock ROM. I'll report back if I still have it.
[Nexus 7 General] Clonetrone:
I've been without the problem for at least 2 days now. Not entirely sure that the firmware downgrade helped, as I am pretty convinced that this is a hardware failure. We'll see.
[Nexus 7 General] dr.m0x:
I think it's hardware too. I've been getting the problem intermittently since I got the tablet and it was on 4.1 back then.

Tried returning it but it chose not to flake out while I was in store.
[Nexus 7 General] Kearkan:
I've had this problem, but I've figured out that its not software at all.

Ive realised it actually seems to be from moisture. For example, if its a very humid day and my hands are a bit sticky, or say I've just got out of the shower or something, the small bits of ,moisture on the screen seem to confuse it, turn off the screen, wipe it with a dry cloth, and its fixed.
[Nexus 7 General] rosebud:
No moisture.

[Nexus 7 General] Clonetrone:
I was having the EXACT same problem as shown in the video with my N7. I have no clue how this disappeared with the reflash, as this is clearly a hardware problem. Been issue-free since wednesday.
[Nexus 7 General] rosebud:
Reflash fixed mine for about 2 days.. Saying that the issue is intermittent so possibly never fixed! I have just completed RMA form, Asus have advised its likely a hardware issue, a little frustrating as my previous device was a transformer prime which was plagued with hardware issues / design flaws. I thought being a nexus, I would be all good but nope :( , shouldn't moan.. However seems crazy that out of the dozens of android devices I have owned, the 2 I've had issues with have both been Asus. I know this isn't a major failure which makes going through the RMA process that little bit more annoying. I'm only doing it because I don't want the issue getting any worse.
[Nexus 7 General] Fotogravin:
This is nonsense. The model name of ALL nexus 7 models is ME-370T. To decide whether your tablet is an early model you need to look at the serial number, not at the model number which is the same for each and every nexus 7

[Nexus 7 General] Shmi117:
I'm on 4.2.2 and I've never had any phantom touches. You guys who are sticking with stock should venture out and try new ROMs and kernels. Only time I've ever had a phantom touch was when on stock, but after switching to Slimbean + Franco I've never had a problem since, and I've been running slimbean for as long as it has been on the N7.
[Nexus 7 General] suddy86:
My device suffered the phantom touch issue for a period of time. Only happened when I was in India with work and moved from an air conditioned room to outdoors ie balcony or similar. Has been fine in UK weather.
[Nexus 7 General] Nbsss:
Mine fixed itself instantly after removing the screen protector
[Nexus 7 General] Richieboy67:
Agreed. My model was one of the first and I never had any issues.

I think these phantom touches are crap. The screen is sensitive so if your finger gets to close then you have a touch.. That is different from a "phantom" touch.

I never had any issues with either of my nexus 7's..I had 2. If the screen is lifted that is something different and most likely a random production thing. I'm sure people will read this crap though about early models and go and rma if possible.

I know some had three lifting issue but I stunt think it is as big of a problem as it seems. I mean people are not generally posting if they don't have an issue.
[Nexus 7 General] Nbsss:
It's actually a real issue, I've got it on video - recorded a few days ago - but it hasn't happened since removing the screen protector, which makes me think the display technology used (can't remember the name, uses less layers to minimise thickness) being too sensitive is the culprit. Drove me nuts though...
[Nexus 7 General] Clonetrone:
Sorry about that. That's what the guy in the customer service told me. I guess I'll have a better look at this. Thank you for the heads-up!
[Nexus 7 General] Clonetrone:
Go to YouTube, type in "nexus 7 phantom touches" and see for yourself.

This is a very real and frustrating issue. I'm not here to post crap and lies, I'm here to give people information that phantom touches are most of the time, 80% hardware failure. I'm not asking anyone to RMA their devices right away. I give people time to think, maybe figure out their own solution.

It's good that you are not having any problems with your Nexus 7. You should be happy and not saying that this issue is "fake". None of it is fake. Not a single bit. This is a real issue.

I hope you understand.
[Nexus 7 General] Clonetrone:
I've actually taken my Nexus 7 to a professional. He tried many different ROMs and Kernels but it to no avail. We tried to lower and raise the CPU clock to see if it would help: it didn't. In my case, it was a 100% hardware/mechanical failure. I didn't have any screen protectors or fancy cases for the device. It was just Luck of the Draw, that turned away from me.
[Nexus 7 General] Richieboy67:
Are you guys saying your fingers were no where near the screen and it was getting touches? Wow.. that is strange.

I know it is a very sensitive screen and if your fingers are very close it can sometimes trigger a touch but I don't think is what you guys mean because I dont think that is a phantom touch.

Why don't you just rma for this? It isn't normal.. I have had 2 nex 7 and have bout experienced these issues.
[Nexus 7 General] sparksd:
I just RMA'd my Asus Transformer TF700T for this problem. I got a notice yesterday that it has been repaired and shipped so I'll find out soon if it is truly fixed. I assume they replaced the digitizer.
[Nexus 7 General] Cintra2:
If you have a look at this page you'll see there are very many frustrated people with this problem. I'm concerned because I expect to get one in the middle of August.. http://groups.google.com/a/googleproductforums.com/group/mobile/topics
[Nexus 7 General] msimindlessmsi2:
My Nexus 7 also used to be plagued with this issue, even running on custom roms like paranoid android. The weird thing with mine Ida's that it mostly happened while charging. If I unplugged the tablet the issue would disappear.

Now, since installing CM 10.1.2 the issue has disappeared. :D :thumbup:
[Nexus 7 General] Fotogravin:
In my case stock rom or not, plugged in or not didn't make much of a difference. So eventually I decided to go for RMA. 7th of august my tablet was picked up, today I got it back. With an all new shiny screen! And no touch problems whatsoever anymore
[Nexus 7 General] warface:
Mine has started suffering from this problem, which only happens when its charging.

Going to take it back tomorrow, as its still within 12 month warranty.

Good day!

I'm currently having this problem but before I'm not.

Got it last April.

Then suddenly, the "ghost inputs" come out just this day.

Before I was using Paranoid then tried flashing CM10.

Hoping someone can help me please. :(
[Nexus 7 General] behlski:
I'm assuming you mean you got it this April, since it wasn't available in April 2012. In that case, you are within your 12 month warranty so your best bet is probably to contact ASUS to get it repaired.

Mine just started having the phantom touches as well. I finished all my backups last night and will be calling ASUS later today. Flashing different ROM's and kernels didn't fix anything for me.
[Nexus 7 General] yohanesniko:
Hi,

I am also having this problem on my nexus 7. This has just happened yesterday when I was reading a book and the page started turning by itself & the page zoomed in and out randomly. The phantom touch also happened on the home screen and other places. Now I could barely use it and after some efforts I managed to turn it off.

I have my nexus 7 for more than a year and this never happen before. It is never been rooted, no custom rom, no custom kernel, etc whatsoever. It was just updated to android 4.4 few days before, but I doubt this is the cause.

It also happened that before this problem occurred I put the tablet (bare, without any case / pouch) in my backpack in the same sleeve with my laptop, pressing against each other tightly. I have put it this way before and no problem ever occur previously. Could the phantom touch is caused by the pressure in the backpack?

I'll try to remove the screen protector and see if it'll fix the problem. If not, I'll try to open it to see if there's any internals that loose or crack or something. Any other suggestion?
[Nexus 7 General] YellowMango:
I took the screen protector off and the phantom touch is gone
[Nexus 7 General] argon9898:
Thank god I've found this thread. My Nexus 7 Wi-Fi is also having phantom touch problem. I bought the N7 about 3 yares ago. While using it, I noticed occasional random touches appeared on the screen, simply fixed by turning the screen off and on. But the problem got worse after I had my N7's screen fixed a year ago, especially when I pressed the two sides of the upper bezel near the top of the screen, the screen went crazy with multiple phantom touches. They told me there was a waranty mark or something under the upper left corner of the screen, making a small gap between the screen and the bezel. Even when I use it with my wet hands, it still go numb and appear random touches, which is frustrating. What should I do now? Is it fixable? Should I remove the waranty mark? Please help me.

Is anyone able to get this working on our phones?
[HD2 General] doublehp:
Hy.

I have a HTC HD2 with a dead touch screen (I can read, but touch is not reactive). I could reset it to factory settings via buttons. So I have a Windows Welcome screen.

I can also enter HSPL.

Is it possible to flash the device, and install Android without working screen ?

Once I have Android, I can do stuff with the device, and use it as VNC client, and manage remotly via ssh. My problem is to install Android on it. Most tutos say at one step or an other to activate ActiveSync in Windows, what is not possible for me.

I am used to HTC Sensation, and to all classic Android tools (adb, fastboot). I have Windows and Linux hosts.

Classic tutos are not usable for me.

Otherwise, the device will go for sale, for peaces. 10€.

Thanks.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
voldown + power --> bootloader,

fhlash hspl

flash radio 2.15.50

flash magldr

use toolkit to apply partition size and cwm

into cwm

flash rom from zip

no touchscreen necessary

the instruction about activesync is a red herring, , it doesn't refer to the app on the PC, and it doesn't require winmo to be running on the phone either, it just means get a usb connection.

however if you have trouble flashing hspl, then manually updating windowsmobiledevicecenter (find it on microsoft website) will help fix driver errors, and later, when you get into magldr and start using 'usb flasher' you may wanna install 'myphoneexplorer' for the android drivers it comes with.
[HD2 General] Nigeldg:
^That's true, but you might have a problem with Aroma installer. I think it may work with the volume keys too, but if it doesn't then you'll have to find a ROM which doesn't use Aroma (most relatively old ROMs don't) and flash that instead.
[HD2 General] HypoTurtle:
Aroma does work without touchscreen, buttons can be used to select the default choices, (can't recall if volume buttons can used to change selected option, so may need to edit ROM zip so the defaults are what you want). The issue I'd see is how you go about issuing commands and starting apps; it's possible of course - there are commands to simulate screen presses (monkeyrunner) and command to start apps/processes but those commands can get complicated.

If you get a VNC system set up without touchscreen then could you add your procedure?
[HD2 General] doublehp:
I am stuck at almost last step: pushing CWM: I have downloaded Recovery-400 from http://www.filecrop.com/Clockworkmod-Recovery-hd2.html , but I get the RSPL error message. I have Windows XP SP3 with .NET3 SP1, so i am admin, i have EnterBootloader.exe and rapidtool.exe, and I have unticked the USB stuff in ActiveSync ... but i am still stuck at the RSPL error :/

About going further: if I have ADB access from CWM, I will just install Armel by copying from my Sensation (Debian Armel have been installed using LinuxInstaller by Galoula). If i don't have adb, I will have to pre-install it in the zip, and reflash. In short, I push a chrootable env, and find an init script that will run sshd after boot. Once I have ssh, i'm done.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
...because thats the old, outdated way of installing android,, pre-nand recovery, , and those are old, outdated android roms which is why only they have the 'magic' (now obsolete) file.
[HD2 General] doublehp:
samsamuel they may be outdated, but I love CM6 (after 1h of use, I find it very good), and no other method worked (4 or 5 other different methods all ended up in the RSPL.cpp issue).

To take control of my new Android, a friend told me to try AndroidScreenCast. It's some kind of VNC, specially written for Android.
[HD2 General] doublehp:
Once Android is installed, you can have fun with it, without touchpad, by using http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/ . I am lucky that on CM6, adb was enabled by default. Download http://androidscreencast.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/AndroidScreencast/dist/androidscreencast.jnlp and run it with

javaws androidscreencast.jnlp

I will try to not use it at all. I tried it, just so that I can tell "it works", and discard all welcome menus. Did not even configure Wifi.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastrader:
There are threads that discuss the problem with different releases of android releases that are missing bluetooth capability over 2 years ago, nothing since Dec. 2011.

That said I have had a Motorola Photon running 3.2.2 gingerbread that would sync with my ford MySync for audio and display and read SMS txt messages.

So getting a brand spankn new Nexus 4 with Jelly Bean, I was very disappointed to see that all I can sync via bluetooth is the phone and directory.. so old hat now days, they all do that.

It seems that this should be a big enough problem that it would have been fixed long ago, but I can notspelling understand why going from an older version that works, is broken or missing in a much later version.. :crying:

Does anyone know what is going on? :confused:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdviper:
Same here, I would have thought the Nexus 4 would have sent the metadata for the music that I was streaming via bluetooth to my car as well. But nope, just the music no artist info, name and or the ability to browse my playlist.

I use poweramp and poweramp supports this feature as well. Guess we have to wait for custom roms to support this.

Hey there...

So, I just got a Galaxy S3 i747, but I'm using it in Costa Rica (it's already unlocked). I connected to the computer and it's not recognized. I have installed twice Samsung Drivers, but nothing. It's not recognized by the computer and neither by Kies. I've tried 2 different USB cables (I don't have more) and 3 computers, and nothing. I Reset Data from cell, but didn't help. I don't have a external SD installed. I even turn the phone off, took out the battery about 60 seconds, but that didn't make it work. I also tried USB ports from the back, but no luck.

If I tried this 2 USB cables and the 3 computers using a Galaxy S2, it's recognized every time, so it's something about this phone. What else can I do? I'll appreciate any help or tip.

Thanks.

If your phone is messed up like my old one was to the point where it shows up as "Device Not Recognized", your only course of action is to warranty the phone because recovery through Kies Air is not possible and at this point you cannot connect to any computer to fix the problem. I believe it to be a non-repairable software issue.
