POSSIBLE fix for a dead zone (bar) on the screen! - Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion

I got after useing the smart cover (guess the magnet caused the problems!) a freaking dead bar (spot) on the top of my elephone p9000.
After some research someone wrote he fixd his LG Phone Dead Screen with a electric lighter... so i tryd the same, sounds troll? BUT IT WAS TOTALLY WORKING :silly:
Made a short video about it:
https://youtu.be/O797leeOkOA

send the phone back to elephone via the provider you bought it off. i had same problem with mine it would work in top right corner

It's working again with this Little fix.

yes it tryed it works

I used this fix today... really works! =)

Didn't work for me. It doesn't seem to arc at the screen. I've got a dead bar right were all the menu buttons are, at the top. So frustrating...
Any other suggestions?

Has anyone dismantled an X1?

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has fully dismantled an X1 - and if so, do you know if there are water indicator stickers on the inside of the phone?
So far, I can see two on the outside (one on the battery itself and the other where the battery contacts are on the phone itself)
Thanks in advance!
some where on youtube there is a vid on dismanteling an Xperia

Thank you!
It doesn't appear to have any on the inside.. however I'm not sure if the 3 rectangular white things on http://www.phonewreck.com/wiki/images/thumb/a/a8/Xperia_x1_pcb_2.jpg/800px-Xperia_x1_pcb_2.jpg are teh same as the water indicators on the outside.
Yes Dismantled it.
Mine fell down. Touch stopped working and so did the finger scroll sensor. The touch worked in landscape but in portrait it wont work.
Opened it and found the connector slide cable (similar to ones in samsung slide phones) unplugged. Guess the shock of the fall made it stick out.
Anyways plugged it back in and whoa....Phone was as good as new.
For thoe whose touchscreen stop working, I suggest please first try the "BOAN" method. (Battery off all night). Insert the battery in the morning and the screen works miraculously.

Or make a hard reset may i add...
Or full flash instead thats worked for me...
Hard Reset did not solve my probem though. I tried flashing to Generic R2a0010 as well. Did not work.
One more thing before i tried the BOAN methodm was inserting a visiting card between the screen and the casing especially the four corners to wipe out the dirt. beleive me, its the small particles that pile up and sometimes pressurize a particular point disrupting the touch mechanism. I got my X1i only 20 days back, and i stay home or office and believe me there was enough dirt residing in the corners. I was actually surprised why they had such a big gap between the screen and the casing.
Anyways, since i did the flash, I flashed mine with the latest R3A0010. All's well in my x1 except that custom ringtones are not loud enough.

Unresponsive touch screen :(

The top part of my phone does not respond to touch anymore... it is impossible to bring down the notification bar... and once in a while the whole screen goes unresponsive.. tried factory reset but still the same problem..
am having the same problem since 2 days back
after reading some of the posts i found that the Digitizer For HTC G6 Legend A6363 should be replaced with new one i ordered mine from ebay
ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5039.m570.l1313&_nkw=Digitizer+For+HTC+G6+Legend+A6363&_sacat=See-All-Categories
waiting for the item to be delivered
I've also got a touchscreen issue: the area of the notification power widgets is unresponsive... the rest of the screen works fine, but I don't know for how long :/

Do you have widgetlocker, by any chance ?
Or a lockscreen replacement which disable the notification bar during the "slide to unlock" state ?
I didn't know there was such thing as widgetlocker. I use CM7 latest nightly, never seen that thing.
I also facing this problem from last 2 weeks and i also think this is digitizer problem. If anyone else found the solution else changing the digitizer, then please post.
This is beautiful phone but htc added a poor quality things in it, due to which many users facing such problems.
Nah.. I dont think its because of widget locker.. its the digitizer..
well that's a shame, gotta buy a new digitizer on ebay after just over 1 year of use...
I know.. this sucks... Im planning to upgrade though.. Any of u guys have any suggestion?
Depends on your carrier if you want suggestions for an upgrade.
...but that would drive the post off-topic.

I have the same problem. my screen doesnt work anymore because some water got in from the grill above the screen :S
should I try to take apart and dry off or shall I buy a new digitizer directly?
I think it may be a good idea to try disconnecting your digitizer and reconnect it as it just might be helping. I did it on my girlfriends legend and it has been working perfectly ever since. Maybe a good idea to at least try that before buying a new one. So i guess it could be in the connector to? At least this worked for me.
My touch screen dosent work at times. but after rebooting the phone the problem becomes solved. But the problem comes again after a week or so. Any suggestions guys??

I also have this problem, but if I wait a couple of minutes the touchscreen
becomes responsive again. Half of the screen works when it's unresponsive (right half of the notification bar and down). It's quite annoying but I cannot afford a new phone at the moment.
I'm also wondering if this might be temperature related, this problem reoccurred very often during the summer but stopped during the winter. But now (spring) it's back again.
My problem got worse and the phone became totally unresponsive, changed it, got a new phone.

exact same problem here, mine works when it feels like working, totally random, I simply can't understand why, I doubt it's the temperature... I think its in the device theres something wrong, I smack it numerous time and it works right after a big smack on the screen, or rub your whole hands on the screen, also, the angle you are holding the phone affects this problem, if none of these work, a phone restart always makes it work at the beginning. Oh boy did my phone took and taking much beating... oh well, I wish I could permanatly fixed the problem here, as I was thinking of handing the phone to my brother when I upgrade, I'm using CM 6.1.
I still recommend the same thing that i posted earlier here, her screen still works perfect.
I had the same problem few months ago. The problem is with the touch digitizer. I bought a digitizer on ebay and replaced it myself. After that my phone has been working fine. Its not that hard to replace it if you have a small knowledge about hardware.
I use to get that unresponsive screen issue only in the summertime, plus it gets worse if I add humidity (read: sweat). I just need to give it some time then to dry off/ cool down outside my pocket, and it's all fine again.

[Q] The bottom of touch screen doesnt work!

Hello Guys, I discovered at first I was thinking its was a software problem because the Back, home, and APP buttom it wasnt working, so I reflashed, and still not working, so after testing more and more, I discovered that the problem was in the touchscreen.
NOT working on the bottom, I enabled the developer mode and turned on pointer option and location of the pointer, and showed me that was the problem.
The Q is if I change the LCD + Touchscreen digitizer I will work again ??
It should work. But it's gonna cost ya. Might as well get a replacement from Google.

Yes. I've seen them for 90$ online.
Send it back to Google. I would.

When replacing the LCD , havent you checked if touch is working or not?
What sort of touch issue are you having? Phantom touches ? Or some portion of the screen doesnt register touches?

It could be faulty touch panel. Contact the provider or if you want to replace it, it costs 10 bucks on amazon. ( Just search by lg g2 touch panel) . Your LCD is fine.

The shopkeeper gave you a LCD with a faulty touchscreen. Always check if everything is working before you pay them.
But sometimes it might be software issue. I suggest you to try one thing, that is if you can flash a new rom, go ahead and do it, then see if the touchscreen problem still persists. If yes, then you have to replace it and get a new one.
Note that : the touchscreen panel stays on top and lcd on bottom, you replaced the whole thing that comes with the panel and lcd so theres no chance shopkeeper changed it, to remove the touch panel, you have to completely destroy it by applying heat and then slowly remove it.
Heres a video to clear it up on how to remove the touch panel : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTKV0RRv2IU

Ticwatch pro LCD display issue

My TicWatch pro LCD display always suddenly out of order (nothing display). something need to reboot or connect the charging then the LCD display will be back to normal. Did any one got the same issue? Thanks.
Hello, cant confirm this.
Everythings works fine here!
Possible solutions:
- reset your watch
- try to update
Do you have installed any modded kernel or rom?
