Hey Guys,

I am having a big problem with my device. The touch is not working. I have been flashing various roms on my phone and after playing with many roms, i finally flashed stock rom into my phone and flashed a stock ics based rom. Everything was working fine until one day my touch was not working well. I switched off the phone and turned it on and the touch was right back on. Again, things were smooth until this issue happened quite frequently. The problem was solved after turning off the phone and powering it off. After some time, the problem again started to come. At this point, the touch was not working COMPLETELY.

I was scared and immedaitly flashed the stock rom. During the initial boot, everything was working fine. But, when i locked the screen and tried to use the phone after some time, the same problem occured again.

So friends, my question is, Is this a software related problem or a hardware related problem. If this is a h/w related problem, is there any point in touch working during some time and not working later? ( Now, touch stopeed working completely). Will any tutorial on this forum about bricked touchscreen (after flashing wrong rom, which i am sure i didn't) will help me solve this problem?

I am awaiting for your valued input as this is the phone that i use for all my communication needs.

Kindly help me

Thanks

Well, if stock didn't solve it, there's a chance it's a hw issue. If you look closely, "touchscreen brick" guides are meant for the mini and the lww (touch digitizer separated from display), not the mini pro (touch digitizer and display as one assembly).

And yes, there are situations where your touch digitizer might cease to function for a few seconds then respond after a while, and sometimes it stops working completely after the next reboot (or forever). It happened to me with a deffective replacement part.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tashrif:
Thanks for your reply.......

I guess it is indeed an hardware issue. My phone used to reboot when i slide my keyboard out fast. The screen gets dimmed out and the phone immediatly restarts. Last few days before the problem worsened it was overheating also.

Can you suggest me which hardware part i should change to rectify the touch issue? Awaiting for your reply

Thanks a lot
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
Ok your problem seems to be worse than expected. A faulty touchscreen shouldn't cause sudden reboots. I'd say it's a flex ribbon issue.

Try to get a replacement flex ribbon and test it extensively before installing it on your phone. Replacing the flex might be enough to solve all of your problems. If any of the problems persist with a new flex, you'll need a new screen assembly (quite expensive at 35~50 bucks).

To start I bought this phone from a friend was working fine. It seemed to be rooted after going to recovery mode and realizing it was a custom recovery that I got into. I've had plenty on iPhones and androids , so far this is the first time after hours of research and trying everything that I've had to make a post asking for help. I have a sgh-i747 pebble blue ATT phone. It had 4.3 OS on it and was rooted before I acidentally wiped the OS off of it. I've tried the past few days to use Odin to get the stock firmware back on, I've tried 4.0.1 - 4.3 , no luck. Odin recognizes phone after I click start after choosing the md5 tar file it either says fail or stays at setupconnection. I've tried many times over and over unistalling and re installing drivers , kies, and downloading different firmware and every version of Odin. I need help guys please , thanks alot
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] k4krisbrah:
I can get into recovery mode but it's a custom one , and I can get into download mode. Someone please help I'm sire it's somethig small I'm missing like the correct downloads for the firmware and odin
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] k4krisbrah:
it was rooted with a custom recovery on it before i wiped the OS off , it was on 4.3 , working okay. ive tried so many firmwares , so many threads on how to , so many downloads of odin and the firmware and tried uninstalling and re installing everything from drivers to kies to everything. someone please help or forward me to a thread that WILL work. ive even tried 2 different cords and 3 different usb ports and am not using a usb hub. the pc im using recognizes my phone in odin but always either freezes after i select firmware and click start or it goes thru and comes up with fail, or failed auth. someone please help thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Since your phone was on 4.3, the only thing you can do now would be a stock restore to 4.3. Please see the thread below for the stock restore zip as well as instructions. You may use another device to copy the stock restore zip to an external SD card and then place this card in your phone, then flash from (custom) recovery. Odin cant help you now except to flash custom recovery if you need to redo this.

the only option i have is a s3 with a lcd thats not working it will boot and go on but i cant see anything. how would i go upon sticking my sd card inside there and getting that 4.3 download on there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] k4krisbrah:
i found out i have twrp custom recovery that i can access and download mode. its twrp v2.6.3.1
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Good you have TWRP already. You can try to see if you can save the zip to your phone's internal memory as the PC may be able to recognize it in download or recovery mode. Otherwise, you may try using any other device at all that accepts (micro) SDHC card e.g. camera, card adapter etc. You may also be able to flash the zip directly from your PC using the desktop flasher. See thread with instructions below ...

Let me know if this works for you.

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

Of course, you need to first download the stock recovery zip for TWRP to your PC.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] k4krisbrah:
thanks so much for your help. i took my s3 that had a bad lcd and put my sd in that and moved the zip file i downloaded here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2658486 then i flashed it from twrp and wiped cache and all that good stuff everything was fine after that. only question i have for you now is to root or not to root , i forget the pros and cons of it , its been a while. i know i rooted my s2 and note 2 a while back but i havent had a android in a while. thanks so much for your help , thumbs up :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Glad to know your phone is now working fine. To root or not is a choice you'll have to make depending on how much control you want over your phone. The pros are that you literally have control over your phone in terms of installing apps or making modifications to the operating system. You can install custom ROMs and/or apps that you would otherwise not be able to install. The con, of course, is security and integrity of your phone. There is always a risk that you may end up bricking your phone or creating access for malware. Rooting should, therefore, be something you do only if you have need for it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pcshano:
... Just Odin stock ROM and work from there or if twrp isn't latest... Odin latest recovery and then USB files into phone using recovery and then flash... Or again just use odin to flash and then do whatever you want afterward

I was messing around with my nandroid backups and loaded my stock rom. While everything was updating in GAPPS I must have been to hastly and told it to upgrade.

Im using Philz Touch 6.25.0 and currently it only boots into recovery, i failed to install the aroma file manager before all of this started so I dont have a terminal to use. ADB doesnt seem to work on my work computers without a bunch of work.. ive been messing with this for the past 4 hours now and decided it was time to ask for help lol.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dre363:
Alright, well I manged to get adb working and attempted to sideload TWRP just because it has a terminal. During the install i get a status 7 error because loki failed. Did the OTA update destroy loki>?

Woot solved my own problem! thanks and this thread can be deleted.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimtyson:
How'd you solve it? And you are\were not alone. Damn ATT.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dre363:
If you dont have ADB working try to download Koush's Universal ADB drivers

https://github.com/koush/UniversalAdbDriver

Second once your sure ADB is working download Aroma File Manager by amarullz for Philz recovery

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1646108

You may have to rename it something smaller for your convenience and sideload it via ADB and the recovery. Aroma manager should pop up and you'll have the option to use a terminal.

I just found a link to the rest of the steps that could have more helpful things than I can offer now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrayWolf99:
Hi to everyone.

While I was trying to install Cyanogenmod 11 on my Nexus, I deleted all the ZIP files containing a ROM on the phone...

Now, the phone is without OS and I can just boot to clockworkmod recovery mode but, as I said, I 've nothing to install! Not even a backup of the previous Cyano 10.

My Win 7 pc doesn't see the phone and I've even tried on Win 8.1 and if I do the command "adb devices" it shows nothing.

I'm trying to find a way to copy the Cyano 11 zip file to the recovery mode so that I can install it.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samersh72:
flash stock if you can boot into fastboot mode
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrayWolf99:
Thank you for the tip.

First of all, I downloaded "15 seconds ADB Installer v1.2" and the process was OK.

Then I started the nexus in bootloader mode and the phone displays "fastboot mode" (in red), along with "product name, variant, hw versione, etc".

When I open my PC's devices the nexus appears as "unspecified", I open "troubleshoot", install the drivers for "Android 1.0" but then Win 7 says "android 1.0 doesn't have a driver".

What can I do?

I already did this but didn't work.

I downloaded and installed "UniversalAdbDriverSetup7.msi" and now I can see the nexus with "fastboot devices".

I installed WugFresh NExus Tool Kit and I've been able to flash Android 4.3 and now my nexus is back to life!!! :laugh:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negrobembon:
It won't cause any more problems and white balance helps with the issue

But Sony seems to calibrate the colors on different updates so you might have to readjust your WB settings after each update

Some users have reported yellow hue dissapeared after a certain update while other users got it after the same update

You could send it back if it bothers you but its a lottery and you're better off with white balance

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiyeon90:
I have it as well, for me it's always been there with every update, while the white balance helps a lot it's not perfect because adding a lot of blue increases the contrast and reduces saturation a little bit, if I was you I would send it back.

I have checked about 12 other Z1s on stores and only one had the yellow tint so chances you get the same problem with your replacement unit are very minimal

I found the Torch widget in Touchwiz and it works great, but I don't really care for the Touchwiz launcher. I tried Apex and Nova based on previous recommendations but they didn't really wow me as much as Go Launcher does...and, because apparently I have done something to anger the mobile gods, the Torch widget isn't available in Go. BUT! I did finally find a decent 3P flashlight in Tiny Flashlight + LED that gives you a 1x1 widget that acts very similarly to Torch and is actually pretty darn fast. Also, it keeps the light on even when you turn off the screen, and you can switch it off quickly from the notification panel, much like the stock widget. I am pleased.
