Touch Calibration - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so ive replaced the screen on my mums N5, with one i got here.
(its not letting me post the link to where i bought the screen, i'm too new, but this is the description "US White Google Nexus 5 LG D820 D821 LCD Touch Digitizer Screen Assembly + Frame", i got it on ebay)
The installation went fine i think, i may have damaged the camera, but i biggest problem is the touch screen. It was ok after a reboot and it was not charging. But now it is totally off now. Like and inch or 2 off making it unusable. Ive been trying to find a way to calibrate the touch screen but i have not been successful. I was hopping that someone had an idea of how to fix this. The phone seems to work in all other ways, but its hard to test at the moment.
Thanks T

Advice needed from people who've repaired TP screens

Ok so i walked into my desk at work last week and cracked the LCD - i had already puchased a new digitiser as my screen was getting pretty scratched up so i figured i'd simply buy a new LCD and take the phone and new parts round the corner to my local phone shop who were happy to replace my screen and return the next day.. great.
Fast foward and now i have a BIG problem. The new LCD doesnt seem to work once the phone has booted. SO, when you turn the phone on you get the usual windows boot screen with the rom info in red in the bottom corner (im using Monx's latese 6.5 rom). After that though it all goes Pete Tong, when then alignment wizard starts the screen goes nuts, flickering like an old TV and not displaying a steady image. The guys at the store say the phone is damaged from the knock to the screen however before I did a hard reset and removed my sim and SD card the parts of the LCD that were still able to display the today screen etc were showing everything correctly and flicker free and even allowed me full touch control with the stylus.
I basically need some advice from people who know a thing or two about replacing Touch Pro screens. Despite what the shop guys say i suspect that my screen is not compaitble with my Touch Pro which is originally a UK Vodafone but i now live in Canada and got the new LCD from the States. The person who sold me the LCD said it was compatible with all Touch Pros & Diamonds, but then he would say that wouldnt he!
My options are either buy another LCD and hope that does the trick or bite the bullet and get a new crappy canadian contract and a new handset. please help me ive tried the search and cant find anything that helps me and im desperate for a solution!
Cheers
Its a LCD issue what you got, my guess is that the person at the store either gave you a faulty one or its a duplicate lcd,also cleaning the LCD connector with alcohol would be a good idea.Its very rare that in the Diamond/Touch Pro category the connector to get damaged.

Thank you very much, I will look into this one.
screen seems to work fine, installation was not too hard. However, new screen acts little weird, as once phone is off, backlight turns off immediately, but you still can see image for few seconds under normal light, pixels show through, and then it fades away.
Look for an original AUO H380VL01 or HTC Touch HD Sharp matrix... It's reported to be compatible with our phone
cracked screen too

I installed mine today -after 6 months with broken screen- I bought lcd for HTC Touch HD T8282.It is far more cheaper than the acer one and fits perfectly.ebay item 290424248491.
The HD screen is the same of NeoTouch?
I've paid 70€ for a screen for newTouch, but your proposition is more good: 50€!!
Are you sure it's good for Acer? My touchscreen is OK...
Im using it since last friday. its perfect
I received my screen today, but it's difficult to open this mobile phone!
I remove 5 screw on sur back of the phone, but i don't know what remove
There are two more screws at the left and right sides of battery house

right?
screen now fixed
I took my phone in to a local shop and they were able to change out the screen using an HTC HD screen (yes, the exact same screen as the neotouch). All is fine with the screen. They messed up the power button, but that is another story. I watched the guy do this and it seemed like a hell of a lot of intricate work to do yourself. I was happy to pay the $120. Now, I just need to return and get them to redo the power button (installed it incorrectly when putting it all back together).
For those adventurous enough- go for it, but I suggest the cheaper HD screen. And no, only the screen was replaced, which is under the touch screen/digitizer that actually has the acer logo. All looks as it did before.
I took my neotouch for a motocycleride in the rain. It didn't like it too much and now the touchfunction is messed up on parts of the screen. It all displays as it should but I can't use parts of the screen. I should be allright with just replacing the digitizer right? Ebay item Item number: 170518652337
Hi, the same for me.
Touch doesn't work on some area.
Need change digitizer or LCD?

Hi,
this didn't work in my case. After replacing my broken original lcd screen with a new lcd display (eBay - No. 120608475783, Original HTC Touch HD LCD Display T8282), I can see that the display is switched on, but it doesn't seem to receive any signal (like you turn on your pc monitor but not the pc). Now I have two questions:
1.) If only the lcd display is broken - should I still see something on the display? Because on my broken display, I only have a black and a white part and some coloured stripes, mostly where the display is broken.
2.) Is it possible that there is something more broken on my NeoTouch or did I simply receive a broken lcd panel? It did fall off the couch, completely flat on the display.
fyi: the new lcd was missing some isolation (on the flexible part with some electrical components) which was present on my original lcd. I used some sticky tape as a replacement because it is directly positioned over some other electrical components on the phone when in place.
New Info:
Everything except from the display seems to be fine - when it is connected to my PC running "My Mobiler". But I have seen pictures of mobiles with a cracked screen whre you were still able to see (partly) the homescreen, etc. On mine, I am not able to see anything while the cracked screen is mounted - only white and black parts and some colored stripes...
Update: The delivered display was broken. Yesterday I received a new one which works perfectly!
many thanks in advance

Cracked screen

Hey.
Today my i9023 fell flat on hard surface and my screen cracked Touchscreen is working, only the glass is broken. In my country, replacement of screen costs about 130$. I found some stuff on eBay, but is it safe to replace by myself ?
ebay.com/itm/Super-Clear-LCD-Display-Touch-Screen-Digitizer-Samsung-Google-Nexus-S-i9023-/170740444063?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c0ec6b9f
Anyone tried doing it ?
Is it the good screen ? I mean there were 2 versions of this phone I think (i'm from Europe)/
I think u have the lcd screen not the superamoled like in america.
sent from my Nexus S
somewhere found this: "Google Nexus S Super AMOLED Screen (I9020)"
I have i9023 so I guess it's the other one.
So screen from te link in first post should be good, yeah ?
Yep
sent from my Nexus S
Mate, be careful when you order the scree, I have crashed my Nexus S (i9023) too, and it's third SLCD I changed but none of them was working, display was ok, but no touchscreen. And all of the screens are for i9023 model. Plus, a lot of people who own this model also are complaining a lot, that the touchscreen is not working, including this guy here

Problem after touchscreen replacement (original one)

Please help me with this touch screen problem:
In my HTC sensation 4G touchscreen has been replaced (together with display) and as a result I've noticed that device no longer registers fast swipes. No lag or other problems, just when you move finger fast - touchscreen fails to register it. In multitouch tests circle disappears during fast movements and in games like fruit ninja there is no line after the finger. Guys who helped me tried several digitizers they had in stock and all of them had this same problem.
My original digitizer and these ones are probably different models because mine was T-mobile and these have HTC written in the middle.
So I wanted to ask did somebody stumble upon this issue and is there a solution?
Or is it possible that all new ones they've tried are bad?

i have similar issue. my screen doesn't register any touch on the left half, unless i touch the right half a few times first...:/ my digitizer got changed as well. but after that all is fine...only after i turn off the screen, then on again.....it's a little annoying, but not making my device useless at least.
as for to what's the cause, possibly each phone needs a special digitzer...as for the solution, i tried many, nothing worked...
I read of someone with a similar problem, they took screen apart again and found the wire was slightly pinched, they said they carefully put wires back in place and paid extra Attention to the wires and problem was solved. Now, I personally have not tried it but I did read this fix. Maybe it might help, worth a try? Hope this helps!

I'm on the same boat. Dropped it and cracked the screen. So I bought a replacement screen and replaced it myself. Its the one with just the HTC in the middle. (I'm T-mobile) Well now, like yours, it sucks at registering touch accurately. I have to press solidly on the screen to swipe screens or to open apps. Texting sucks because i have to press on each letter good or else it picks the wrong letter. I've searched for a solution as many have had this issue but seems like they just returned it for a new one. I cant since i replaced the screen and voided my warranty. I have taken it apart twice and carefully reassembled it making sure everything is good and snug and in the right place.....Still no love....Sucks! If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated as i have hit a dead end with this issue. Thanks.

this is quite different problem. Sensitivity of my display is OK unless you move fast. In your case it seems to be the problem of this exact screen. Try downloading SGS Touchscreen Booster from Play Store and play with settings.

Touchscreen is not working

Hi guys,
I have cracked my nexus 5 screen and decided to replace it by myself.
I have ordered replacement kit (frame+lcd+touchscreen+glass).
After assembly with new screen everything is working fine except touchscreen(is not responsive at all).
After switching back to old one(cracked) touch is working.
I have tried soft and hard reset, and flashing image-hammerhead-ktu84m factory rom, no result.
Is there any suggestions I can try or throw it away and buy something else ?
I would ask for a refund on the assembly if it came with a broken digitizer
#StayParanoid
I actually have the same problem. Replaced the screen myself and the touchscreen does not seem to be working. Did you manage to find a solution? In the old (broken) screen the touchscreen does continue to work (even tho the glass is cracked and fragments fell out).
