Samsund Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 no response from touch screen - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The tablet had a smashed screen, but was working fine. I replaced the digitizer and it didn't respond to touch. I thought I may have gotten a bad one, so I put another new screen on it with the same result. I tried restoring to factory but it didn't change.
Anybody know what went wrong?

did you connected properly the digitizer flex to the logic_board connector ? prehaps it doesn't make contact

I've replaced many digitizers, so, yes, I connected the cable to the mainboard. Reset to factory doesn't require the digitizer. Just the power and volume buttons.

I checked and rechecked the connection. Easy to slip it in and even has a line to show when to stop. The lock lever holds it tight.

[Q] Dropped Xoom - now screen random displays like this

I recently dropped my Xoom (in a case onto a carpeted floor). It semeed to survive but now the display shows distorted colors like the sample attached. I thought it might be a loose connection but I can be working away and the screen will revert to normal and stay that way for days.
And I can suspend it while it's okay, come back to it and the display is corrupt again.
Can anybody work out what could be going on? I would prefer not to have to replace the screen but I don't really know if that is the issue if it reverts back to normal all the time.
Thanks

The screenshots look fine to me, how about upload the images of your LCD screen not screenshots.

Silly me. The screen shots look distorted to me also because I was posting on the device!
Yeah looks like a loose connector to me. You may be able to fix it if it was a soldering joint. I guess the repair can do the same thing.
I dropped my tablet recently and the screen got screwed like yours, but mine is worse. I don't know too much about hardware, but I think that it's the crystal that broke, so it may be hard to fix :/. Anyway, if you get it back working I hope you to share some info with me, as well I will do if I get working .

[Q] Broken Digitizer or LCD?

Hi everyone,
Wondering if anyone can help? Basically, I got into a car accident and my phone was damaged. The image is reversed and the touch screen is somewhat insensitive.

The red streaks is just from the flash. Anyone experienced the same? Should I repair it or just give it up and buy a new one?
Thanks for your help.
Similar problem
I have similar problem. Touch in N5 was insentensive too and today something happened. I have Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case, so I think it shouldn't be problem, that my N5 fell from 1m high. Or maybe it is a problem? Now screen doesn't work, it only highlights a bit when it should display something. Touch doesn't work too, of course. I know that my N5 is still alive, because of vibrations and LED. I can hard reset my phone with 10s pressing power button, but I can only feel vibrations and a bit grey not dark screen.
Is my screen damaged? Or only software? I hope it's only the software, because I would prefer to do it myself, not to call RMA.
Does anyone know any way to control my phone via PC? Connected by USB or Wifi (I have remembered WiFi).
Sorry for my language (grammar etc.), I'm not American or British.
Dropping your phone will not damage software. You can access your phone via fastboot. I don't think it'll help. Your best bet is to send it in for repairs.
I've had car insurance cover a new laptop that damaged in a crash before. I live in Florida in the US though. Maybe its worth a shot for you too?

Attempted repair on N5 USB port, now phone screen is blank.

Hi,
I recently purchased a replacement USB port part for my Nexus 5, as my original one had a bad connection on the port which made charging very tricky.
The new part.

I followed a Youtube guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqCEXEmcj4Y
I did as was instructed, the only thing being an issue was that fitting the ribbon back into this port was a little tricky. (see the circled image below).
Put the phone back together. Powering on I feel the phone vibrate as if its powering on, but there isnt anything on the screen.
I hold the power button down to turn it off, but I dont get any vibration indicating it has force powered off.
Ive opened it all up and checked the work ive done, but still the same issue.
I thought it may be the new part I put in, so I swapped it for the old one.
Im concerned now that the port that i had to fiddle with to connect may of been damaged (although i was very careful). Or is there a more simple explanation where I need to connect it to a computer in an attempt to bring it back to life?
FYI I have just tried the vol keys and i can hear the vol change sounds. I may take the opportunity to back things up now.
Is it possible to do a factory reset without seeing the screen? I have a lock pattern that I obviously cannot see now either.
All help appreciated.
Thanks

[Help] Bricked on a glitch screen but odin mode works

Hi people, I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 (N8000), and since a few years ago is stored because from one day to another stopped working, when you turn on normally the screen is something like interference, has no movement, there is no sound of the system, just stays like that and occasionally restarts, but if Odin mode works "normally", I tried to flash the system in several ways and following various tutorials but nothing has worked yet. At some point it was taken to a "technician" to be checked, but the answer he gave was that the whole motherboard had to be replaced.
Does anyone know if this has a solution?

The eMMC needs to be replaced, I'm doing this as a professional, don't know if theres a store which can do this in your country.
Open the tab and see if the flex cable from the screen is still properly seated in the connector. If not, open the lock and reinsert the flex cable from the screen correctly and close the lock again.

You can see, that the download mode looks normal.
It's the typical picture, if theres no data readable from the param partition,
mostly defective eMMC.

Hardbricked means a hardware component got defective, softbricked means either Android OS or device's bootloader got corrupted.

Ok thanks I understand now. So with device if I press the reset switch within the av port and connect USB cable nothing happens. Software doesn't detect any bootloader.
Hi, if still works, you must to short circuit the point that show you in the picture, the board go to maskrom mode. (the secuence must be, press an hold reset button, keep and hold the shortcircuit and connecto the usb male to male on to computer), i use RKdevtool for install RK322XMiniLoaderAll_V2.32.bin and reboot. Now is in LOADER mode, so you can flash a firmware normally. Any doubts just send it.
