[Q] Broken digitizer, question while restoring. - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all, my HD2 has a broken digitizer. LCD picture is showing up fine but its not sensing my touch. Now i want to restore the original ROM. When i restore the original ROM do i need to hit anything on the screen ? I don't want to be stuck on a screen where i need to hit "OK" to continue and not being able too.
I've never reverted back to a stock ROM before so i don't know the process...
Any info would be great!

no, no screen necessary. the rom will hang on setting up network, waiting for a tap, but by then its stock already so doesn't matter.

great!, thanks it worked... =)

Touch Screen No Longer Works

Hello all
Looking for some help.
I flash my rom quite often and have never had any problems. I recently flashed to a 6.5 rom, and all of a sudden the touch screen stopped working. it is unresponsive to any touches.
i flashed the 6.1 official rom, and that flashed ok, but the touch screen still doesn't work
it hasn't been dropped, nothing physically is wrong with the thing, but i'm wondering if anyone has any ideas as to why this could have happened?
i have a NIKI200, T-Mobile Touch Plus, unlocked, hard spl'd etc etc
anyone help?!
thanks!
the flex cables are terrible on these devices, make sure that its not because of the following problem

i have phone insurance, so will probably go through that, i'm not one for opening the phone up!
my question remains, how come all of a sudden this happened after flashing a rom?
can someone please do me a favour and get the registry settings for the Niki
1. Open your Registry Editor
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/TOUCH/
3. Click on CalibrationData
4. Give me the values in this field
This will maybe help me out!
thanks
anyone?! please?

I would imagine LCD failure, though I can't be quite sure. Could you include a picture of it?

The same problem with my GSM Evo 3d:/
What ROM, Radio, kernel are you using? LeeDroid V5.3 and LeeDroid V4.2.1-1.94GHz-KERNEL, radio - 10.59.9020.00_10.15.9020.06 in my case
http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/543/img20120225140835.jpg
I noticed that when I removed battery and tried to boot, in the beginning screen was black and then was LeeDroid's boot-sound and when phone is supposed to ask for my PIN code the rainbow-pixel screen appears.
Could anyone make step by step instruction how to reflash ROM? I cannot see anything so I need all information (like push vol down two times). I hope it might works

really... LCD Failure... how would i fix that... here are some pics. I am running this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456793 on version 1.3.
so i will post pics, and do you think rogers would be able to fix this problem or would it cost a hell of alot of money?
I'm not convinced that it's LCD failure. LCD is working (in a strange way) and in my case touch is working as well. In my opinion it might be motherboard (or anything that controls LCD). I'm going to try changing radio, rom and kernel - maybe it will work. But I really need your help with the step by step guide I mentioned in my previous post.
ok, so what are you going to try and do, are you going to try and reflash a rom?
like i can try and give you instructions, but i need to know what you want to do.
EDIT: I have downloaded and tried to run the RUU for My rogers htc evo. it is installing the rom, stock radio, and what not. so when it is done i will update and post back if that worked or not.
UPDATE: Installing the new RUU did not work, the screen is still messed up im guessing its a hardware failure. im going to try to bring it into rogers and see if they will do anything to help me out.
Something new, now my screen is completely black (but i can hear that touchscreen and touch buttons are working).
@Shotgun4 - please let me know what you'll find out.

Thanks mate
My screen is once more pixelful
I don't want to start new topic so I'll ask here:
Could anyone please help me with going back to stock rom?
My LCD is still not functional so it'll be unusual guide.
1. I open cmd and run adb reboot bootloader command (with stock rom in PG86IMG.zip file)
2. Does phone starts in fastboot or bootloader? If fatboot I need to press power button right?
3. Now phone should check for PG86IMG.zip file, what should I press to accept flash?
4. Now few minutes for flash
5. And what button should I press to reboot?
Is there any easier way to flash stock rom without working LCD? with adb commands maybe? please help me guys

Your in diagnostic mode. Hold down the power button for 45 seconds then press the camera button twice it should reset the phone.
Diagnostic Mode, never herd about it. I tried both with phone on and off, no luck :/. Anyone has idea what it might be? (I'll post picture once more http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/543/img20120225140835.jpg)
PS
I managed to reinstall my shipped ROM, but screen is still f*cked up ;(.
Guys I have a problem. Is there any way to switch on USB debugging without working screen? I need to s-on my phone and I cannot use adb without USB debugging. My touch screen and touch buttons are working though so maybe someone could make screenshots how to switch it on? I'm on stock ROM now.
Or maybe there is other method to use step 5 of this tutorial without USB Debugging?
And one more question, If my phone doesn't connect with computer in bootloader/fastboot, does it means that I have s-on?

[Q] SK17 screen doesn't work

Today, I had the CM7.2 rom on my SK17, and it worked perfectly, I toke the phone to use it, but the touch screen didn't worked! I saw the things in the screen, but touching it gave me the same result as touching a non tactile screen! Of course, I couldn't unlock and use it.
I tried to enter the CWM mode and flash it. In the CWM the soft keys didn't worked, so I had to wait to flash again the boot.img at home with the computer.
But although I flashed again the boot.img, the touch screen didn't worked. I tried to flash other different boot.img, but it continues without work. I don't know what to do!!
Do you flash the right rom??mango??
Sent from my Xperia Mini Pro using XDA
Seen quite a lot of topics about SK17 touchscreen problems, but no solution yet, neither do we know what causes the bug.
Also, soft keys in CWM not working. I hear that first time.
Get back to fully stock ROM, might help you.
Of course I had flashed the correct rom, for mango, sk17, and I returned to the official rom too, but the problem persists.
I think it's a hardware problem, but I don't know if I should open the phone to see if something is broken...
Ok, I finally decided to take the phone to vodafone and make them solve the problem. It's under warranty yet and I think it's a hardware problem, so I won't have to pay, but I'll have to cope without my xperia during 10 days :S
Thanks for the ideas you suggested
yeah, me too having this problem.... once it worked i restored backup...but after 30minutes stopped working again.... i can change kernels...but not working..so i guess not the lib's fault here. Also softkeys doesnt work, i guess they are part of screen.

Touchscreen not Working after rooting

I have a problem and hope somebody have a solution.
My S3 was updated to JB. Then i uses CF Auto Root to root it. After Odin, the phone rebooted and the Samsung S3 wording started to flicker and get disorientated from the screen. Then it went blank. I tot it freezes and removed the batt. Then i redo again. The same thing happen and i leave it there then after about 8-10s, the phone reboot and started off from the languge selection. But touchscreen died.
So i install the stock rom again thinking is FW corrupted, Problem still there. I try root with CF Root 6.4, Problem still there. I install stock ROM again. Problem still there. Now my FW is official but counter is 11. I see a problem with bring back to Samsung.
I also removed batt, remove sim and all sorts of stuff but problem still exist. Bascially stuck at the start up languge selection screen and touchscreen dead
So hopefully somebody got a solution before i take the last action of bring back to samsung. Thks
Mine too!!!
Did you use the correct version of CF root??? I accidentally flashed the wrong one because it was right next to the correct one. The exact same thing happened to me!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the touch screen controller is dead. I am going to look at the Log to see what's happening. Does yours also take a while to boot or to load recovery?!!

My working solution
Hi, I had the same problem and the only one solution I've tested is changing the touch driver on the touch module. All you need is a broken touch (the donor) and a lot of patience.
Step1. Disassemble the working phone.
Step2. Carefully take out the touch module (here you need a lot of patience and time). DON'T TRY to change the driver on the assembled phone because the display will be destroyed. I speak from experience.
Step3. After the module is out unplug the touch panel from the display and blend out the driver.
Step4. Now you can change the driver. NEVER try to change the driver when it is on the display.
Step5. After finished changing the driver repeat all the steps in the reverse order.
It is working 100%.

[THL] W200s- Firmware- Please help!

Hello to everyone, I want to ask for your help!
First of all sorry for my bad english! I will try to explain the situation.
Last December (2014) I bought a THL W200s phone, from China. It's impossible for me to find the seller, because my uncle that was living in China for 1 year, ordered the phone via TaoBao but he doesn't remember to what seller.
Well, the phone was ok, till it fell down to the floor and the display broke.
I mean, the "outside" glass was ok, but the display wasn't.
I ordered a new phone screen in Aliexpress (ask for the link, I can't put any link here) and changed the screen.
The new screen works OK, but I've a problem. I can't get the touchscreen working.
I mean, I can see perfectly the main menu, but if I touch the screen, it doesn't "moves" or do anything, the touchscreen part isn't working.
I talked to the seller, and researched, and found out that might be a firmware problem. Something like that the screen was newer than the phone, or vice versa.
I downloaded and flashed almost all the firmwares/ROM's available in the Internet for THL W200s, that can be flashed by SP FlashTools (I can't use another method to flash because the touchscreen doesn't work), but no one worked completely.
I mean, with all the firmwares/ROM's I flash, I get the same result. Display works OK, but no touchscreen.
Except with this one : Needrom- W200S 4.4.2-KK-09/09/2014
With that one, I get the opposite result, I mean, my touchscreen works, but the display doesn't. The Phone turns on, but shows no image, it's all black, but I can feel the vibration when I press the screen and the touchscreen works OK.
I don't have experience flashing that things, or in basic Android, but I wanted to know if you can help me! I'm desperate!
I would have to "combine" the "part" or file that contains the touchscreen of that ROM (W200S 4.4.2-KK-09/09/2014) with another one, So I can finally get my display and touchscreen working.
Any ideas of how to do it? I tried replacing the lk.bin file of the ROM I mention, in some other ROM's that make my display works, but I don't get any good result.
Please, if this topic doesn't go in this forum, or if I've posted some link that can't be posted, I apologize!
Thanks for reading, if you don't understand something please ask!
PD: I've already asked to the seller for the suitable firmware, but the one that he provided, doesn't work.
Any never firmware should work. How you tried to install firmware? By FlashTool? Flash everything but preloader, it should work. To be on the safe side try latest JellyBean (4.2.2) from needrom. This could be some new screen revision but who knows. Please post your results.

First, thanks for reading!
Yes, I've tried via SP FlashTools v5.1352.01, because I think I can't flash ROM's with CWM or TWRP because I can't get my touchscreen working, so I can't install them on my phone. If I'm not right, please correct me.
As I said, I tried almost every rom that is available in NeedRom for thl w200s that can be flashed using SP FlashTools. But I can't get any good result, touchscreen doesn't work. I'm sure it's only a firmware problem, because flashing the ROM that I describe in the topic, touchscreen works but display doesn't. And flashing any other ROM display works but touchscreen doesn't.
Could you recommend a ROM to try? I don't know what else to do. I'm afraid my phone is lost
What I did to flash all the ROM's I download, using SP Flash Tools, is to select the Android scatter, then in the sliding panel clicked in "Firmware Upgrade", click in Download, connect the phone without the battery, and wait the ROM to be flashed.
I don't know what is wrong !
I had the same problem when I changed my screen.managed to use my back up I made with mtk droid tools.before I changed my screen,I was on the 4.4.2 ROM which I could now no longer use(black screen), but for some reason I could now install the ROMs from need ROM (which I couldn't use before)and the backups on my phone would freeze when I used them.only the stock ROM I had and the ultimate ROM from need ROM would work.but now the mic no longer works(tested with the google apk,phone calls and sound recorder) and the vibrate does not work and the proximity sensor does not work(tested it by using the dialer but the screen stays dark so can't end the call.so I got a dialer apk from play and that works but in the end I used a xposed module to stop the proximity sensor. really had enough of this phone.
