Successful touchscreen/digitizer replacement? Anyone? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Was wondering if anyone has found a digitizer that didn't have any inversion problems with one of the axes? All of the searching on here and other forums and I haven't found anyone with a story that ends in them having a working tablet again! Sorry if I'm just a crappy searcher, but I didn't want to sink ~$90 into a new touchscreen if it won't work out!

If your digitizer says Rev 0.03 All4cellular.com has them. Make sure when you order you send them a message telling them the one you need. I have one here, but my LCD is busted so I'm sending it back.

[Q] Looking for Archos 101 lcd/touch digitizer

I have trawled the net for weeks on end. It appears no one is selling either the digitizer or lcd/digitizer combo for this unit. My unit's touch panel is cracked and I was hoping I could find a replacement and fix it myself. I can't even find a cheap Chinese knock-off. The closest thing available on the net is the LCD panel without the digitizer. My LCD is working fine.
If anybody has a dead Archos 101 with a good working LCD/Digitizer, I am willing to buy.
Anybody knows the technical specification for the LCD/digitizer? any part numbers? any substitutes that can work? I pulled mine apart but cannot identify any relevant manufacturer code/part numbers.
Thanks folks.
How much do you want to pay?

@pitflyer, PMed you about this.
Anyone know where you can get a replacement screen/Digitizer?
Mine is smashed and parts aren't easy to find for it
If not whats the best way to wipe all personal info from it when screen and touch aren't working? If its going in the bin I'd like to wipe it first
Had the same problem with my A70... you can find the LCD easily, but It seems like it's impossible to get the touch Digitizer ...
perhaps...

1) Connect to computer and install new firmware ?
2) Break it open and remove the SD ?
3) Set it on fire ?
4) All of the above in that order !

If the display itself is still working, but touchscreen is cracked you might enter recovery and wipe data partition and stuff.
Only power and vol+/vol- buttons are necessary.

I once did some research on the parts used for the A101 devices.
See this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16452190&postcount=12
There's a datasheet collection ready for download.
- TFT-Display is Chimei N101L6-L02
- Touchscreen is probably made by Pixcir using a Touchplus TR16C0 controller

[Q] 1 inch vertical stripe of touchpad not working - UPDATE: Digitizer replacement

A day or so after upgrading to Jokersax's 0.5.0 build for the Atrix with the Aroma installer, I've discovered that some of the letters on on the keyboard stopped working. Using Touch Test, I've confirmed that there is a roughly 1 inch vertical stripe of my touch pad that just does not register inputs.
Downgrading to previous builds or restoring previous backups of the ROM do not fix the issue.
Is there a chance that the touchpad calibration utility for Aroma caused a miscalibration of the touchpad? Or is this likely physical damage of some sort? I've already tried rerunning through the Aroma installer and recalibrating the touchpad to no good effect.
Any other suggestions from folks?
-----
Update: Solved by replacing the screen/digitizer
mines is doing the same exact thing. from what i have read on there your digitizer is going out. I ordered another one and it should be here today, once I install it, I will let you know if it continues to do this or not.
The digitizer is a common issue with the Atrix. Motorola went cheap on the Atrix.
Funny. I also started experiencing this last week.
How much did your digitizer cost? ( @ Quinto)

I just installed JokerSax 0.5.0 2 days ago as well, and today I have noticed a strip up the entire touch screen that is not responding to input. I too used Touch Test to confirm that there is a strip from the back key, all the way up to between 'OROL' in the word Motorola at the top of the phone.
This affects keys B H and Y when in portrait, and the entire qwerty row when in landscape with the usb port to the top.
I dont recall this happening before running Jokersax CM9 but it very well could have been..

got for $33 off of eBay. Here is the link:

It came yesterday and I am going to attempt to put it on tonight.
Thanks, and good luck. Keep us posted.

Somebody gave me a stock atrix with a similar condition, it was about 1/2 inch at the top and another 1/2 inch near the bottom (in portrait) mode.....so it's not the rom that you installed.
I too ordered a new digitizer off ebay....except mine cost $43 :-( i should have looked for a little longer...ohh well
I don't think it's necessarily a hardware issue :
The fact that it happened just after installing a new ROM is very disturbing
I have the same problem, and sometimes, with a new ROM, the problem disappears for a couple of hours, then my screen goes totally crazy, then the unresponsive strip reappears
Some people have this problem and a new digitizer didn't solve it
Is there any way that CM9-based ROMs overwrites some touchpad driver ? Does someone else could testify that it could be something else that the digitizer ?
Interesting idea. For the record though, I'm running pure CM7 RC 2. I have heard that the reason one might lose and then regain touch response is due to a hardwear connection/reconnection issue.
When this problem first began to occur, I would briefly retain touch response in the dead strip after rebooting. To test if this was a software or hardwear issue, I physically twisted my phone a few times and regained touch response temporarily, suggesting a hardwear response.
Just my two cents.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
Anyone have luck with the replaced digitizer yet? I'm hoping to avoid ordering if that doesn't resolve the issue.
Ok, I broke down and bought the digitizer from ebay via the link that quinto0827 provided. I just installed it, and things are working great.

Off topic, where did you find cm7 rc2? All I'm finding is rc1 which is what I'm running.

I think the same thing.
I had the same problem with my Huawei Ideos U8150 after flashing Dronix 0.5 Rom.
In CWM I can see that the digitizer every 2 seconds it loose my fingers.
same has happened to me on my atrix. one perfectly straight line down the screen which doesnt react to touch. This line is moveable within the aroma installer calibration tool, which btw is what created the problem for me in the first place, after i decided to try the alternate touch option.. So yup, i agree too. I KNOW it was aroma installer that messed my atrix up.. SIGH...And i had just gotten it running top notch too..grrr .. btw that new touch file manager installed through cwm will also move this ghost line around, which could perhaps help some users navigate a little better on their touchscreen.. This is another point that suggests its not a hardware issue. Only other, worse thing i can think of is that the aroma touch installer played with the voltages feeding the screen, and did maybe blow something physically.....
Hey look at this... Just happened today and im so sad... Sometimes this solution in the link seems to work so it should be a hardware issue... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27595402&postcount=1

+1 The green camera issue plagues alot of users and it's hardware all the way. You'd be bigger then, well, the big guy if you posted a fix for the camera..
Thanks for support.
I don't understand what the problem with the camera is. Do you have some details to give me ? or a video of the issue ?

if you want i can make a short movie how you can disassembly the camera...
Hi, great video and great timing, my screen cracked yesterday after a "screen first landing from my bed". I already ordered a replacement one and your video gave me great hints on how to dismantle it, however I'm still wondering if anything else is needed to put it back together with the new one. Does the screen comes with some kind of glue on the sides? Any tape that I need to take in consideration? or it should just snap back in place?
Thanks for doing this tutorial and I would appreciate anyone who can help me with these questions.

The video says not available in my country. I am in germany. I would love a nice video on how to take this beast apart and try to fix the camera issue. I press on it and it seems to work but only if I press down hard so maybe something got dissconnected.
Or hell find a place that will fix it, I cant send it to ASUS because of the unlock thing and because I dropped it recentlly but no other damage was done to the tablet though
now just some scratches
Where are y'all finding replacement screens? I haven't had any luck finding just the screen

I'm aware that they have them on Ebay, dozens of them, but every one that I have seen bought has a screwed up X-axis.
When you install yours make sure to test it BEFORE you take it down.

I think he means to test it before you permanently mount it.
There doesn't seem to be any way to remove a cracked digitizer from the mouning bezel without destroying it. Even though your glass may currently be cracked, I'm sure it still works at least. If you remove (and destoy) your digitizer glass, you won't want to discover that your replacement has the left and right axis reversed.
Disconnect the ribbon cable for existing (cracked) digizer glass. Connect the new digitizer glass. Boot your prime. Make certain that the new glass is the right model and the left/right is correct.
Even easier than that. Compare the rev numbers of the replacment digizier and the existing one. If they are different revs, you'll be hosed.

[Q] Broken Screen, fixable?

I somehow broke my Nexus 5 in my pocket today. The side buttons still work and it functions normally (gets messages, updates) but the touch screen doesn't work. I was researching possible solutions to fix it. I am wondering if anyone knows if my particular situation can be fixed. What kind of replacement package should i get if i can get one?
. I think i uploaded a picture of my broken phone.
Cheers
