digitizer recalibration - HTC Desire S

hi - I have a htc desire s thats on original firmware. I recently replaced the lcd/digitizer as a complete unit with a genuine replacement part. The phone was working perfectly in every way up until a few days agoo when i noticed that the side volume buttons wernt working, so i replaced the volume buttons as well with a genuine htc part. Now the phone starts up pefectly but the digitizer is not responding to my touches anywhere. Ive checked that ribbons are seated properly several time but still no response from the digitizer. Ive been told that the digitizer needs recalibration, been told to make a "goldcard"...which i did...also use the file "PG76DIAG.nbh" onto the sd card,,,reboot phone...get into the bootloader menu and it should give me the option to recalibrate the digitizer...but i get no such option in there...any help and ideas please..thanks

HTC Touch Pro gone black!! (Problem)

Greetings!
Today my phone dropped of the desk and closed...i powered it on again vibration was working but screen was black!I tried my old lcd same thing...
For what part should i search t find or it's pointless...??
probably a hardware problem,the clue that the software works that it vibtrates,ry and buy a new scren or go to a shop to fix it
I've change screen i tried my old one(touch(digitizer) problem)..so i think this ( cgi.ebay.co.uk/Keypad-PCB-Flex-Cable-HTC-TOUCH-PRO-T7272-/320597490986?pt=UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item4aa5197d2a ) will solve the problem...
PS: Cant post link cause of forum restrictions.
Hello Dimgr
I lost my Touch Pro last month ( MB gave up) other part are perfectly working. As HTC service center said MB is gone i got courage to look inside deeply.
Therefore i can can the link is NaviCap assembly which is noway handles screen.
What i can guess i could be BD Slide
I though it would be that cause the screen connects with navikey.My phone hit the floor with the screen and keyboard was on!(i cant explain it sorry for my bad english :/) Any other suggestions??I dont want to rip my phone .
Just one day my TP stopped responding to touch, everything else working.
After few days screen went black, but phone was starting Navi key were glowing while charging, even phone was getting detected by PC.
I gave my TP to HTC service center they said Mother Board has gone & it was costing almost a new phone.
So i decided to sale the parts.
I sold Navi key to one of member on this forum only & its working perfectly, this confirms my doubt that Navi key is not the bug in your case as well.
Three things could have happened.
1. The best scenario is the jolt from the drop just dislodged the ribbon cable connecting to the screen. Resolution: Reseat ribbon cable on screen and on body of the phone (requires to open the phone)
2. The screen simple is busted and needs to be replaced.
3. The motherboard got busted and needs to be replaced.
1. The phone is open i even tried another screen all ribbon cables are checked :/
2. The screen seems to be ok... I dont think that both screes are faulty!!!
3.R.I.P. Htc touch pro...
My situation was same & HTC service center concluded that motherboard is gone.
So i believe your motherboard is also gone & this means there something which stops working after physical.
Because after my phone stopped responding to Touch i gave some shock with a hope that it may help in case of loose connection, but next day screen gone black.

Screen backlight wont turn on

Hey,
I accidently dropped my phone in water a couple of days ago. The backlight doesnt work. Under a really bright light i can see the lock screen and it still functions. Is it possible to replace just the backlight? or what should i do? I dont believe this would be covered from motorola and I live in canada got the phone shipped from the states.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
James
I'm guessing you might need a new screen/display. Perhaps do a search and find a repair place you can ship it and get an estimate? I know HTC offers such repairs dirctly (ship the phone, they call you with an estimate). I'd bet Moto does as well if you're not comfortable with 3rd party repair.

I have the same problem right now except mine was not dropped in water. In a bright light I can see the lockscreen and also could see the emergency dialer tonight but the keyboard was not reacting on certain buttons either. One screen said to unlock enter your gmail account info,I tried to enter my name and the period symbol(.) was not working for me. I'm thinking maybe the LCD screen needs replaced or the ribbon cable,IDK. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: Essentially I finally got logged into the phone and the keys were working fine,the screen was still dim so I turned the brightness all the way up and turned off automatic backlight. I replaced the LCD screen and digitizer and now the phone is not starting for me. I'm about to replace the Flex Ribbon Cable inside the phone and see if this corrects the problem. Right now i cant get the phone to start up so I'm thinking the ribbon cable is disconnected somewhere because it hooks to the motherboard and the LCD or the motherboard is fried. IDK,I'll let everybody know what happens with this project.

What happen to letting everyone know? Were you ever able to get it going? Was it the flex cable? How did you get the LCD working.
Replaced the flex ribbon cable and it still didnt help anything. Guess its just the phone. I trashed the phone a while ago anyways and am currently running a rooted Droid 4

i9023 - Replacement screen touch input not working

Hi,
I recently dropped my i9023 and smashed the glass.
Bought a new screen with digitizer from global direct parts (www globaldirectparts com/Samsung-GT-I9023-LCD-and-Digitizer-Assembly-p/smsng6102150.htm)
Having put the new screen in it boots up fine and displays perfectly but the touch screen is not working at all and I can't do anything. If I put my smashed screen back in touch input works fine.
I've flashed back to stock I9023XXKB3 and I9023XXKB1 firmware, but nothing seems to help.
The ribbon to the screen doesn't appear to be damaged and because global direct parts had a minimum purchase of 2 I have 2 new ones and they are both unresponsive.
Anyone have any ideas?
My first idea would be to have the manufacturer fix it.
Sorry you are having trouble getting the touch screen to respond. I too have cracked my screen and would be very interested in your strip down and replacement steps as I am going to be doing the same. If you get time, could you write down your steps. There is a pretty good teardown at
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus-S-Teardown/4365/1
but I am not confident of the last bit of using a heat gun to separate the screen from the frame. Did yours come off easy ?
Yes I could have sent it to an authorized repairer but I would of been without the phone for a a while and it would cost twice as much. Plus I like pulling things apart.
markread544 - I pretty much followed the ifixit guide. however when pulling out the motherboard make sure the front and rear cameras and speaker are loose as well otherwise it wont come out.
I didn't use a heat gun, I just applied pressure until it started to lift, it would of definitely been easier if it had been warmed up but I didn't want to use a heat gun either. You would want to use an adjustable heat one on low if you did, I think a hair dryer would work as well.
I pulled mine a bit further apart then they did, the grey part in the attached pic comes off as well which makes it easier to get the screen out of the front bezel which it is also glued to.
Phone is back together at the moment with the cracked screen but I'll take some photos if I pull it apart again.
same problem here.
i bought an lcd on ebay for i9023 (slcd)
display OK , but no tactil response.
i had MP the OP but still no answer.
if you have any suggestion
thanks
how much for the screen? seems that 9023 is cheaper than 9020
80 euros for the less expensive , about 120-150 for the others
I ended up returning the screens from global direct parts and after about a month they gave me a refund.
After being quoted AU $250to get the screen replaced by an authorized repairer I decided to try again and bought a replacement screen on eBay from a seller called stream_beautiful for $86.
Got it today, installed and it works perfectly. No idea why the original screens from global direct didn't work.
I'm sorry to bump such an old thread, but I was wondering if there was any more information on this issue... I ordered an i9023 screen to repair a friend's phone about 2 months ago and had the same issue as the OP with it; touch input didn't work. I then contacted the seller (forceviewer on aliexpress) and he told me he'd replace it. After sending it back I then had to contact him again and send him pictures of the back of the old screen (with which touch input still works) because according to him there are 2 versions. Now I received the second screen a week ago and lo and behold, it exhibited the same problems. I noticed a number on the back of the screen is different, and the atmel IC (which I assume handles the digitizer input) has a different number on it too, however the seller has now adopted the position that it is definitely the correct display (quote: "If the pictures is right
The item will be right
I just send you the one same with your picturs
There are only two version.
Thanks")
Can anyone shed some light on what causes this? I know the guy's company tests their displays before sending them out, so that's probably not the problem, and receiving 2 faulty units in a row would be a bit weird, so I guess there's actually multiple versions (with a different digitizer controller IC?) which aren't compatible with each other... How do I make sure I'm getting the right one for my friend's phone? And, optionally, how would I go about convincing the seller to take this one back too and send me one that really works?
I'm having exactly the same issue...two replacement screens and touch input non responsive, re-install original and hey presto no problem...what I have noticed is that the part number on what I assume is the digitizer is different...
original -> KJ00423-101228-P00-7F-1
replacement -> KJ00423-101228-P00-5F-1
Yeah, my replacement says 6F-1 at the end, I can't check the original right now because my friend has his phone, but I'm willing to bet it doesn't say the same. Maybe I can make my case with this with the vendor, I'd really hate to have to buy another one of these displays for nothing
Guys,
It's the third SLCD screen that one of my fried is replacing to my I9023 Nexus S, and none of them is working. Yesterday he told me that when he bough the third one, the seller told him to "reprogram" the phone, because the drivers for new SLCD will be installed only then.
To be honest I didn't quite understood him, so, I though that the seller means to flash with a ROM. I did that, I installed CyanogenMod 9, everything went fine, but the touch still not working .
Does anyone knows how the phone could be completely wiped. Meaning everything what is in it to be reinstalled from the beginning....
I don't know what else to do, besides to buy a new phone
Hi All,
Just want to ask if anyone came to the solution yet ...?
Cheers,
no touch
Hello
i have the same problem:
1. The display works
2. But no touch reaction
i had bought a new screen for my I 9023 .
thanks for solutions
Yep, I have the same problem.
Original: KJ00423-101216-P00-1F-1
Replacement: (Not responding to touch): KJ00423-110207-P00-1F1
eBay Seller: mike410512
Bump - anyone sort this issue out?
I know this is an old thread, but since I have a shattered SLCD screen and i'm willing to replace it, i'd like to know what to do in case there's no touch response...
To get touch input again
Hi all,
I have smashed my phone screen twice on my S3 i9300. The first time I had the issue with the touch screen not detecting input but displaying correctly, I had taken it to an authorised repair centre and initially they did not know what was wrong.
There is only one way to "fix" this situation. You must remove the custom recovery and then reflash your phone with the stock samsung rom. Flashing the stock rom with stock recovery should pose no problem as it will be "official" and thus not blocked by stock recovery.
After reflashing, you must do a factory wipe + data reset. This is where you change your screen, making sure not to boot the phone for "the first time". If it does not work, repeat the reflash + factory wipe and try again.
The samsung rom will register the new hardware profile, and touch input will work. Why it works this way is beyond me, but taking these steps when changing the screen on a custom rom will ensure that the touch input works. Perhaps custom roms "borrow" drivers left over from stock rom? I don't know.
You can back up your current rom and restore after messing around with the samsung stock rom and you have gotten your touch screen working properly.
I have tried a whole heap of different "solutions" with this problem and this is the only one that works, and if you are taking it to a repair centre, make them aware that you have a custom rom installed.

Replacement touch screen not working

Hi,
I've bought a new screen + digitizer and replaced it with my broken screen. At first it didn't work...but after updating my N5 device with a OTA cable and a mouse i worked for about a day. But this morning it was unresponsive again.
I've opened it up and checked that every ribbon cable is correctly installed.
The screen turns on fine, but the touch screen is unresponsive.
Any one who has a fix for this or know what to do?
Sounds like a hardware problem to me.
Your previous screen is completely dead ? If the previous screen worked try to put it back and see if it's ok. Maybe you damaged the flex cable or something. The nexus's connectors are really bad...
I've a very similar situation here. Where did you get the screen? Mine seems to work fro a couple minutes then it's unresponsive.
I think the screen is defective. I have replaced the screens on 6 or 7 nexus 5 phones with 3rd party frame/LCD/glass units from Aliexpress and they all continue to work after several months of use.
i have this question also. i can use my touch screen at the first time but not after reboot . Display works very fine to my new screen with digitizer.

Moto G5. An input line of keys are not selectable on the phone. All other keys work.

Hi
My son recently gave me his old Moto G5 phone. The phones charging board was broken and the screen was very badly cracked all over (it had a screen protector) and was generally not in the best of condition.
My son had bought a replacement screen several months ago, but had not got around to trying it. The battery was also totally flat.
So he gave me the phone and I installed a new charging board and the new screen and charged the battery.
Unfortunately an area of the new screen does not respond to key input . This area is a line of keys towards the bottom of the screen (not the bottom though).
My son says that he had not noticed any such problem when he last used it (he kept using it until the battery went flat; he then purchased a new phone).
I've tried doing a factory reset. I've removed and re-connected the display cable onto the main board and these have not fixed the problem .
I am not sure what to try next :crying::crying:. I could purchase yet another screen in case this new screen has a fault (probably unlikely?).
Presumably it could be the main board (digitizer?)...How can I find that out?
Maybe I have done something wrong on the install, but seems odd that the rest of the screen (as far as I can tell) works ok. What might I have done to have caused this problem?
Has anybody got any useful tips as to what I could try. Seems a waist of a good phone, not to try and repair it.
Thanks for reading this.
