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.

i'm going to buy a screen + digitizer and i would have some advice about this, what code should i look ??? there are only two kind of screen or more ? what should i ask to the seller ???
I've been having a reoccurring freeze issue with my HD2 no matter what build I am using. On the initial first time startup everything works fine until the display goes to sleep. Once it does, the touch pad freezes. Hard buttons still work although don't do anything since it's stuck on the lock screen, and even if I soft reset or reflash anything, the problem persists.
Not even disabling the lock screen helps. Even if I install lock screen disabling apps (I've tried them all), the touch screen is still non-responsive when I wake the display.
Whether I use stock winmo, custom winmo or android (NexusHD2 gingerbread 2.3.4 as of late, but I've also used the old Desire Android 2.1) makes no difference; neither does reflashing HSPL, radio, ROM, Recovery CWM, reformatting SD card, fixing file permissions or even performing Task29. I've even restored everything all the way back to stock winmo which didn't work, so I performed every step along the road to getting back to Android. No success. I'm at a loss because I've tried every solution I have found online in just about every order imaginable.
There has to be some solution to this issue and I'm hoping that SOMEONE out there will rescue me. It's been a problem since I first got the phone and although even once in a while it will work for no apparent reason, it has been in this status for some time.
PLEASE help. I'm tired of paying a bill for a phone I can't use.
It's most likely a hardware problem. Your digitizer has most likely went out, I'm not a pro but it happened to me before.

Is the digitizer easily fixable or would I need to replace it? Or would it just be overall cheaper to replace?
Hi Folks,
Here is my story.
I have replaced my broken digitizer on HTC Sensation. At that point i was not aware of multiple versions of digitizer's in e-bay & Amazon and i need to select the right one stuff...From this thread
I realized after replacing & touchscreen was unresponsive.
With inputs from From this thread, i tried to RUU, then realized that i have to S-OFF. But in the process of trying to do S-OFF,[touch screen not responding] while connecting to a PC, phone is not detected [May b that i have to select USB debugging option in phone]
So, am struck now & can anyone help me what is the way out now?
Thanks

You might have to reinstall the broken digitizer and root/s-off the phone then replace it... You need the touch screen to do some of the s-off steps...

How do you remove the digitizer? Is the heat the front and ply it with a guitar pick the only way to do so? My digitizer ain't broken, but my lcd got wet and I want wipe the stain off.
I have the same problem. what make it worse is that I have cut the ribbon of my old screen. Could anyone help out, if there is other way to do it?
Thanks
Hi there they're is a great instructional video on you tube on how to replace the digitizer on our device, if I remember correctly there is also a video on you tube on how to open and take apart our devices. I have watched the digitizer replacement video and its extremely helpful, advising on exactly how to do the procedure . Go over to you tube and take. Look at the video . I think it will be extremely helpful! Best wishes and hope I've helped!

Have a question related to this (don't wanna start a new thread).
If I want to replace a cracked screen do I need to buy the digitizer, lcd, or both? My screen is cracked but works perfectly fine as usual.
Unresponsive HTC Sensation XE Beats Touchscreen
I'm having same problem, replaced old touchscreen :
PYD V1.1
SW-10 94V-0
E308252 1145
With (? = missing letter or number):
PYD V1.0
B?-10 94V-0
E?082521123
The touchscreen is totaly unresponsive . On top of this I didn't care about the old digitizer
and cut the flex cable, now I'm stuck with an Sensation XE Beats with an uresponsive screen,
if there is a fix arround this I will highly apreciate. :fingers-crossed:
I tried to find exact same touchscreen model than the old one, but can't seem to be found.
Is there someone with the same old digitizer who replaced with other model number that perfectlly work or partially?
There is this fix in an other tread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360638
But impossible to do as touchscreen doesn't respond.
Also could it be possible that the new touchscreen is defekt?
I read in the other post that new touchscreen worked at least partially, this one not at all.
Thank in advance for any answer.
Hello,
Recently my touchscreen suddenly stopped working. Everything else is running fine it simply doesn't recognize any touches. I have had the digitizer changed with a brand new one and it still is not responding. The phone boots up fine - you can call it but the screen is non-responsive. Do you guys have any ideas to what the problem might be since I changed the digitizer and it still doesn't work.
Hi, My touchScreen sometimes is not working, but after i restart, everything works fine.
1. I think that you should do Factory Reset, If Factory Reset does not work, it seems that the digitizer has problem.
2. Becareful when you change the digitizer, you must buy the same digitizer with the origin of your fone. When you buy a different one. your fone has no driver for it that's why your new digitizer does not work.

Thank your the reply kind sir. Would it be possible to change the driver of the digitizer? I got mine off eBay and it was for a Sensation 4G but I can't tell of the exact model. I'll try a factory reset but if I can find a driver that would be great.

It could also be related to the little metal ground that is not connecting with the metal strip on the outer casing
Hello All,
In my attempt to root the device which I was successful in doing somehow things went south when i tried to flash TWRP on my device. I performed the .img to tar.md5 conversion with the CWM Tool on another thread then i flashed the file to my device, afterwards the devices were rebooted and now I am unable to touch the screen with my fingers and only my S-Pen works, which tells me hardware wise the screen is ok but something software wise is causing this issue. Can someone please help me in troubleshooting this issue. I seen another user have this same exact issue but it ended with him sending it to the service center. I have performed a full dat/factory reset.... I have performed a full reflashing of the stock rom i have re-rooted. I am all out of options.
See video i made regarding this issue.

Can anyone help with this
Capacitive touch and spen use 2 totally different chips inside the tablet. The spen uses a Wacom digitizer, while touch interaction is processed using standard methods.
In fact, each one has their own ribbon cable from the screen to different points on the motherboard.
I have no idea how rooting broke your touch ability, but the spen working is not an indication that the touch interaction is not damaged in some way.
I can tell you that on mine (especially when using papyrus) it has a tendency to lose touch until I shut the screen off and turn it back on. Maybe something screwy is going on with the touch driver. Flash back to stock and see if it's still broken
Did the reset work?
I ask because we just got a used tablet off ebay and it is doing the same thing to me. My wife emailed Samsung who said blah-blah-blah so we are stuck with it. I know enough to brick a phone really fast, but I have been running custom Roms a long time and have replaced screens so I may check the cables on my day off.
But it was doing it before I rooted it, recovery, and Hyper-drive Rom.
though the knox had been tripped before I got it, so I don't know what has been done to it before this. So please let me know what you think even if you try it and it does or doesn't work and I will gladly do the same for you.
Thanks--Rick
