HELP - Lost response of touchscreen! - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

Hi Guys
I recently updated my 10.1 7500 to ics and all was working fine,
I then flashed a rooted kernal, and since then i have lost all responsiveness to my screen. I have tried flashing stock roms (both HC and ICS) tried running custom recoverys but nothing is getting the screen to respond to my touch!!
It boots up fine, i can use the recovery with buttons all ok, but as soon as it asks to select my language, im f'd!
Any tips of a full restore or solution?
Thanks!

It sounds like you flashed a modded ROM that went wrong. What did you try and flash? The best way to get back to a working phone would be to flash a non-modded firmware, then you can try and work out what you need to do to get the modded ROM of your choice working again.
Phone worked fine with the modded rom "Darky's Extreme Edition 8.x". I turned it off and tried on again. I have not tried to install something.

I would still recommed flashing back to a non-modded ROM to get your phone back to life as a starting point and making sure that it is stable. When you have a stable working phone then you can look at re-flashing a modded ROM again. When you originally flashed the Darky's ROM, did you follow all the instructions from the developer fully?
I would like also flash a official rom, but I can not access the downloading mode.

Sorry, I hadn't noted that you can't get into download mode at all. There are various threads on the forums about getting into download mode on an SGS if the three button combination isn't working, I suggest you search for these and see if any of them work for you. If not then you will have to get hold of a USB jig to force your phone into download. There's a good thread about USB jigs on here and you'll be able to buy one on ebay, I bought one off ebay a while ago and it works great. Good luck!

Installed false CWM - bricked?

Hello,
today I got my Viewpad 10s (same as Advent Vega). I rooted it and installed the new Vegacomb 3.2. Everything worked just fine an Vegacomb was insane! Then I had an bad idea and downloaded Rom Manager to install the newest Clockwork Revocery. In Rom Manager I had to choose between two devices, when I wanted to instal CWM (g tablet Version and something other, I thought they are the same ). When I restarted the device there was just a black screen. I can't go in the recovery anymore and sometimes the backlight comes on. What should I do? Please help
just reflash the stock rom, should be fine.
Just done exactly same thing ref CWM. Have I got to lose everything I had data wise and start from original stock rom?

Ok thanks for the good news. Lol. At least it fixable.
Might as well update to 3.2 v9n then...
thanks for the information, last night I also wrongly installed CWM version 4.x.x.x

HELP!!

So I recently rooted my LTE Tab 10.1 after some errors on my part. I finally got root, and the bootloader unlocked (thanks to six5alive's post here) Here's what I have:
CWM recovery
unlocked bootloader
Rom Manager installed
SU permissions
I've tried flashing two different ROMs, and both flash without a problem. But when I attempt to reboot, I get the Samsung logo and a yellow triangle below it, and then the tablet shuts down. At first I thought it was just the ROM, but after flashing two, I'm getting suspicious. I have a Nandroid backup of the stock rooted ROM, and that restores & boots properly every time.
What am I doing wrong?
You might have root but from the sounds of it the tab does not like the insecure kernel hence the yellow triangle on the logo screen. On a tab, I am not sure how to get around this.
Why not run stock and use TiBu to get rid of the bloatware until you can find a solution? Keep a Nandroid of bone stock then another for your custom settings...

What roms did u flash...?
Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA App
Strange, when I flashed the ISI-Galaxy rom on my P7100 i got then same thing as you, when i turned the device off it automatically went back on with the same result. I had the idea that i was going to have to bring it back to the shop for repairs but... This happened while i was at work. So i placed the Tab in my backpack but when i got home a half an hour later the device was functioning again. So maybe yours needs some time to get over this 'boot up'.

Next time please use the edit button.
I think I have an explanation as to why its crashing. The ISI-Galaxy Rom and P7500XWKK4 Galaxy Tab 10.1 / HC 3.2 ROM are for the P7100 model. Yours is the SCH-I905 model so the roms you tried to flash are incompatible.
Just realized that ZangetsuNX-01 is right, I've been flashing WiFi-only ROMs, not ROMs for the Tab 10.1 LTE. Downloading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17858660#post17858660 now, will flash and post results here asap.
UPDATE: got a leaked TW ROM to install via Odin and boot, posting this from the tablet. Added a screenshot for kicks.
BTW, for anyone with an LTE Tab, flash this via ODIN NAO!!!!
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10463-ro...x-leak-build-for-vzw-galaxy-tab-101-lte-only/
It's unrooted, with stock recovery, but you can follow the directions on the page to get root, it's simple. Just Odin a recovery .tar file, go to recovery, flash SU zip, and voila. Running it at 1.4GHz max, 1GHz min, and it's awesome. TouchWiz is also a nice step up from stock HC.
@Mardenator
your screenshot a looke liek from my adwluncher from my tab...

I'm not sure what the question here is, but I was suggesting that if you have an LTE Galaxy Tab 10.1, you should flash the ROM that I provided a link to. It's a good ROM, and I've been running it for 2 days now.

[Q] Still having sleep of death

I have been trying out a couple Ics roms, all of which claim have no SOD, but I'm still having problems. I have tried
Lightspeed 4.2
Latest icylicious
Tabooney 3.0.1
I guess to be sure, what I'm experiencing is every seems to work fine, but if the screen goes off for more than a couple seconds, it won't come back on. I have to hold the power button for a few seconds, then let go, the hold down the button again it turns on again fine.
What bootloader did you flash?

I guessed that I still have the boot loader that I installed back when I got my a500 last summer. I thought the ICS boot loader was unstable or something. Should I try the other bootloader that is posted?
Edit: I checked in thee Acer Recovery Installer app and it says I have bootloader 3.01
The SoD is usually caused by the bootloader, but it's possible you didn't wipe something when you flashed one of the ROMs. Personally, I'm running the version of AmonRA we have (though that's not fully compatible with Acer Recovery Installer), and on top of that I have Vache's ICS leak, complete with his 3.0.1 patch. I have no SoD issues at all with this configuration.
You DID do a full wipe, right?

I tried both icylicious and flexreaper and could not get rid of the SOD either. I have the 3.01 bootloader and have wiped and formatted and wiped some more. Everyone keeps saying the SOD is because I didn't do a full wipe. I'm back on 3.2.1 now.
Did you check if an ICS incompatible app might be the reason?

I thought an app might have been at fault so I did fresh formats/wipes and didn't restore any apps to be sure but still got SOD. The screen goes to sleep normally then after a short time reboots and gets stuck until I press power to turn off, then power back on.
Thanks everybody, it was the bootloader. Just for closure, here is what I did.
Install leaked ICS from here
Fix the bootloader and recovery from this thread
Install ROMs like normal
Thanks again
Had SOD all the time with flexreapper, installed newest thor's and all SODs gone. I guess the issue is specific to ICS' ROMs based on the leak.

NEXT time, Google should become a resource for you..... But this time, V1.7.1 I believe is latest 'touch' version.
SOD ain't there on LEAK version...
ROOT can be done on LEAK version...
the problem for sure is from CUSTOM
There's no SOD in the custom ROM's built from the leaks, either; as long as you followed the instructions properly.
Try this out. Finally worked for me.
Hey a little late here, but I have had SoD for months. I have tried everything (new bootloader, several roms), but nothing seemed to work. I finally tried flashing a custom kernel separately after I flash the rom and it seems to be working now.
Here is the ezterry A500 rom, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703590 and its a zip so you flash just like a rom. Good luck everyone who has the same problem.

[Q] CM10 first rolling recovery now scrambled lock screen!!!

Hey guys,
this is my first post and my problem is as follows:
I had ICS 4.0.x on my galaxy tab 10,1 P7500, I then installed CWM 5.5.0.4. but had a rolling window. I then continued to install a bootloader (here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27830023&postcount=41) with the appropriate bootloader for the p4. This fixed the rolling recovery and allowed me to install CM10 using CWM.
But my current problem is when the device goes on sleep mode and I wake the device up the screen is scrambled, can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Thank you in advance
The only fix i found is for HC
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680738
Edit:
I fixed the rolling screen issue after screen unlock with pershoot's help, thanks again pershoot!
Maybe it will also work for you , here we go:
If you have installed the latest cm10 build, there is only one issue for the p4wifi , you must be on the US ICS Bootloader .
So download the recovery.tar.md5 from here:
http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm10/p4wifi/recovery.tar.md5
Than go into download mode and flash this recovery using ODIN, (select pda and look for this file where you safed it, than click start)
Than, download the right US ICS Bootloader here:
http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm10/p4wifi/US_LPL_4.0.4_bootloader.zip
Flash this also via ODIN in the PDA section, this may take a little longer, don't panic...
After that, the tablet will reboot and it should work... don't blame me if it didn't, but i had this rolling screen on almost every rom, and everything is fixed now...
I wish you good luck because i know it IS very annoying..
Thanks for the reply DefQon, I agree I think this is most annoying errors I have ever gotten.
I also searched high and low and could only find the fix for HC.

Please help - When turning off the Screen Android 4.1.1 will not come back on
I have the following problem.
When I install one of the latest rom e.g.
[ROM] [JB] [P4--P4WIFI--P4VZW]
4.1.2 AOKP for the Galaxy Tab 10.1
or
[ROM][JB][CM10] Android 4.1.1 - CyanogenMod 10 Preview
then I have this problem:
When I turn off with the "Power"-Hardbutton, then it turns off, but it does not turn back on. The screen stays black.
With the Rom ...
[ROM][JB][CM10] Android 4.1.1 - CyanogenMod 10 Preview "cm-10-20120814-EXPERIMENTAL-p4.zip" from August everything works fine.
Since I had this flickering problem I flashed the bootloader before I installed all these Roms.
But one works and all new ones don't.
Anyone has a idea what to do?
thx

I solved my problems. I installed the "custom" bootloader for each Rom and the "black screen" problem is now gone.
Thanx anyway.

I have tested the fix for weeks now and it worked great.
Except, this afternoon my tablet randomly restarted and now won't go past CM 10 boot screen.
Any idea whether reflashing the ROM without wyping, purely just installing (as is) CM10 M2 from CWM? Or any other ideas?
I have tried clearing the cache and the dalvik cache. I then tried doing a factory reset but it doesn't seem to proress. I thought if I can do a factory reset then reinstall the ROM I might get it to work but I can't install the ROM as it says "Error (Status 7)?
I have tried formatting the /data in attempt to get the factory reset to work but this also freezes.
Currently, my tablet is in an infinite loop cycle and I cannot change the ROM or do a factory reset.
Thanks, you guys have really been helpful!

After hours of trying I have found a solution.
I previously had done backups. I tried each one until one started restoring. It completed quite a lot till it froze and I restarted into recovery.
I did a cache wipe and dalvik cache wipe and could then complete a factory reset.
It has now booted completely into ICS where I can now flash CM10 again.
The tablet works normally as you would expect on ICS. I booted into recovery and tried to flash CM10 M2 for the GT-P7500 but I still get a error, status 7.
Anyone experienced this?

Status 7 usually indicates the wrong update file, are you sure you are flashing the right ROM for the 7500?
Perhaps try to flash the recovery and bootloader first and then the right ROM and see what happens?

The thing is it is the exact same file I used to flash the previous time.. I first updated my recovery and bootloader before flashing and still get the error. Thanx for the thought though.
