problem after screen replacement - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I hope someone can help me. This is my last chance
Last week I broke my screen and replaced it with a screen I bought from Ebay. I did this more then once for friends, so everything went perfect
The screen works, touch works, colors are fine, but the aligment is wrong.
If I touch in the top region, then it takes the higher part of my finger
If I touch in the middle region, then Everything is fine
If I touch in the bottom region, then the lower port of my finger is used
This is not possible to get used to. So...I think I need to recalibrate my screen some way..
I looked and found a tool from 2012 or so, but that did not work because it cannot install. (TouchRecalibrate.apk , calibrate.apk, ..).
I looked for other apps in the store. Nothing that helps
I tried looking for settings but I can only find old threads that refer to calibration, so I assume that this function no longer exist.
I used the servicemenu but cannot find any calibration there.
I reinstalled the phone as well (factory default) + safe mode and I googled for hours.
The tool I am looking for is a tool that ask to put your finger on dots all over the screen and that it then generates some setting file that the operating system uses. No idea if such a program exists?
If someone has an idea, please let me know
The phone is not rooted but if needed I want to do this.
ps. feeling sad about this happening again. The phone is not even a year old.
My old Z2 broke as well... I wish that they go back to plastic..like the good old Xperia Arc S. I dropped that phone hundreds of times
greetings,
Demesmaeker

If it is defect, you can replace your touchscreen for low costs. I paid 20 euro's for my new touchscreen. You also need an T6 torx to open your mobile.

Get a new digitizer on eBay, fairly cheap and easy to replace. Can get one to match your housing color. Less than 20 Euro for sure.
thanks for reply back soon..
there is no way to recover my touch screen??
any technical way to recover my touch screen, techies help me out...
I don't seem how you could 'repair' it. I think it is broken or not. Or the connecter is not in the right position. If so you must open up your mobile either way. I think it's best to just replace the touchscreen it also removes the scratches if you have those. And it's very cheap.
thanks cywood.. its not broken, just it stops working..
negaboys , the same thing just happened to me too. I run the tweaking applications here - doing the HD Tweak and Kaz TD2 instructions only. Then rebooted my AT&T Tilt. After the Titl started, the touch screen no longer worked. And when I went into the utilities to undo the changes I had made, but the applications require a touch for you to use them.
I am really stuck.
digitizer
i thinks it is less effort and much easier to replace the touch screen. its called digitizer. if u r in india ull get it for rs300/-. changing it is extremely easy, just google and search for videos on htc screen replacement. it took me just 45 minutes to open my htc and change the screen.

in your case, it will probably be fixed with a hard-reset.

Hi Praveen,
from where u got the digitizer...? was it original?
mine also stopped working two days back. I am in chennai and just heard that HTC has opened a new service centre here so maybe i can try out my luck there.

The hard reset fixed my problem. I also had corrupt files on my microSD card, so I formatted it as well.
Its amazing how many problems that look like hardware issues are actually software/file system issues.
For those who jumped right to "replace the screen" as a solution, I believe you need to rethink your troubleshooting strategy, as you'll convince people to spend time and money performing a fix action that doesn't work.

That is a great program! I've heard of it before, but never thought I would need it. It looks useful for getting screen shots from your mobile device as well.
Thanks!

Solution
Okay, I've just had this problem with an HTC Touch, and I think this works with any HTC that has a "digitizer" rather than an all-in-one touchscreen (I think newer phones have digitisers).
I'm not sure if this will always work, but I've just done it - sometimes the inactive touch screen is "broken" because the layers are stuck together (so the phone can't tell where the touch is, hence unresponsive). With mine, I looked at the screen side on and could see a kind of "oily" patch in the light.
The solution is to get masking/gaffa tape - the very sticky brown one. Stick it down on the screen/digitizer and then keep pulling it off - this pulls the layers from each other. I kept repeating this lots before it worked - and in the end I pulled the top layer completely off (I think you should pull from the top of the phone, as the layers need to be attached at the bottom of the screen/digitizer). Once it pulled away, I gently lay it back down (after panicking!!) and hey presto it started working again.
Good luck!

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.

Problem with touchscreen

Hello, two days ago i bought factory new Sony z3 and i have problem with touchscreen. Sorry for my english, but ill try to explain as best as i can what is going on.

For example im reading this forum and im sliding my thumb on touchscreen to put page higher and suddenly i can ride all over the screen and nothing happen till i remove the finger and put it back again. It happens everywhere on everypage or even facebook. I have made Service Test with Touchscreen but havent found any issue. Hope you know the reason. Best Regards

Sony z5 screen/display issue

Hi guys,
I'm looking for some help and advice ! Long story short (will try), I purchased a used z5 with a display/screen issue (I guess).
The first owner told me he dropped the phone and that screen was cracked and not working anymore, so he brought it to the repair store... they replaced the screen with a new one, but they told him that the new screen was broken / dead on arrival, and that they would order a new one to replace it again. The guy couldn't wait another month to get is phone back working again, so he quit with the phone like that and purchased a used samsung.
I purchased the standard sony z5 from him. The screen have color lines in it... sometimes purple lines on the left of the screen, all from top to bottom, sometimes it's different (like right now it's alonost all white), but it is not working at all - I don't see anything useful on the screen.
The phone seems to be working though because the flash/photo work with the lower button on the left side... there is an alarm after midnight on it (I wake up like an idiot the first time it came up, trying to stop the alarm, but fingerprint is not mine and screen is not working... I was at the hotel, and damn it was loud... I think it waked up everyone in the other rooms around me before stopping it with power/fingerprint + volume up ;p)
So, I'm wondering if there's only the screen to replace again (with a good one), or if it's worst...
Does anyone know about that kind of issue, and which kind of screen would you put on it ? I want to put a good quality one to use the phone after that.
Thanks in advance for any help and advices !

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.
