Folks
I've unlocked the bootloader, rooted phone, installed all different ROMs possible - and also ran the overheating fix as is prescribed.
Which is, running the touchpanel.sh through script me or Gscript lite tools from play store.
The script works (I am assuming it does because my phone shut down when I ran it under root) - but the phone overheat problem does not go away
I first tried CM10, latest FXP (146), and it didnt fix. Then I tried CM9 also, and that didnt fix it either.
I run the same touchpanel script with all possible ROMS and it just wouldnt work - what is it that can be done if anyone knows please?
thanks

Flash stock firmware, i seriusly doubt that it can solve your problem, but give it a try..

You'll need an older stock GB rom that has a utility called "cyttsp_fwloader" included for touchpanel.sh script to work; CM9 or 10 dont include it.

Its a pleasure @dhruvraj, i remember how good it felt when i fixed it, so HTH.
I run that script so many times when I was on stock (rooted) rom, before switching to FXP.. sadly never solved my problem (its still here).
BTW, don't try to move the cyttsp_fwloader in CM10/FXP and run it there... it broke my touchscreen instantly, I had to flash the stock rom back again to repair it.

Actually the script didnt work for me either - i opened an adb shell, su'd to root and did this as a one-liner
Code:
cyttsp_fwloader -dev /sys/devices/platform/spi_qsd.0/spi0.0 -fw /system/etc/firmware/touch_smultron_sony.hex -verify_only
BTW, don't try to move the cyttsp_fwloader in CM10/FXP and run it there... it broke my touchscreen instantly, I had to flash the stock rom back again to repair it.

Hi
Had the same problem when I installed cronos gingerbread with jumping screens and keyboard buttons not working , same thing happened when flashed other roms
It just unrooted by unstall the new official rom from the htc website.. updated it with the 2.1 ota and was good to go no more screen problems.
also try pressing down the screen a bit on the edges that helped as well
I have ADB installed so unrooting was a breeze
Have install Elelinux's gingerbread and is super smooth now

"also try pressing down the screen a bit on the edges that helped as well" if it works, that means its a hardwer fault. i downloaded an untouched rom, with radio, flashed it, and i play with radiant, and another games, ,and facebook for two hour and no problem...
otherwise... Super one click works with hero? i have offical rom, and offical radio. i only have to unroot the device, and they dont realise it at the service.
edit: another interesting thing: after the touchscreen problem the touchscreen is stoped working, i restart the phone, and after when it starts the phone was felt my fingers from 3-4 centimeters! iam stunned! now the touchscreen is working correct with the original rom/radio
Solved

so i format my sd card with my computer (no quick format) and the problem is solved! thx all
I would like to start a thread for things that have been discovered using the gingerbread leak. I can't add to the post in the development section and I dont really think its the right place. I flashed the zip posted in the dev thread. If you wipe the data before flashing then it doesn't work as the set up will try to run and will force close. I found that the super user app force closed quite abit and that it started if open from within the market. I could not get root explorer to work at all. The biggest issue I had was that it would find the sim card im unsure if this bug was intentional to prevent people using the test release. I assume that it is also related to not having a imei number while using this rom.

Well, you got a bad flash. The SIM is working and IMEI is there as well. In fact, pretty much everything seems to be working except it cannot be rooted.
I made a succesfull instalation too, but got the same problem: not root at all. I tried z4root, gingerbreak and superoneclick.
Any other idea on how to root the device?

His rom is rooted I guess there is a gingerbread leak over the Internet which is fake...the OP flashed that leak rom.
I thought you must be aware of the new rom :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115487
People, if you want to try the russian leak... first, you must flash it via the EXE provided on that site. Otherwise, no GSM!!!
Then, root it like this:
Code:
> adb shell
$ echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf
Reboot device. Then, you need to remount /system rw, adb push flash_image binary on it and AmonRa recovery image, flash it, reboot to recovery. Now, you can flash it once again with the ZIP from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14546945&postcount=132)
Now, you will have it rooted. Notes:
- WiFi unstable
- rooting semi-unusable, highly annoying toolbox binary nonsense sticked there by LG which is probably causing this, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14553363&postcount=154 (Edit: confirmed bug by andy)
- generally, not worth the hassle
- to go back, you must use KDZ to restore stock 2.2.x ROM, otherwise, no GSM!!!
Be prepared you will end up messing with emergency mode a couple of times as well. Chances to brick your phone completely. Not for the faint-hearted people really.
I flashed the first zip that was released for recovery, There is normally a force close from the set up app when this is done this way though, but I got around this by not clearing the data and hence it already having the data and the app not running. Maybe flashing the zip with out wiping gave me other errors. Andys zip has got around the set up FC by removing it, it also has root like the one I flashed. I found the wifi stable though for the little time I used it. I think flashing this is a waste of time though I had to do a clean install as my back up wouldn't work zeam ect, FC'd
I don't have any problem at all Just wanna root cause i want to install market enabler.
is all working better then CM7??
Definitly yes.
and this ROM have all features from CM7. Like a special menu, power menu et cetera?
And main question have this ROM flash player?????
In tweeter
@LG_Russia said that this ROM are NOT OFFICIAL release
what do you think about it?
Sure, it´s not official release, cause its TEST release. Its not a final build.
I've been ripping my hair out the last couple days trying to figure this out.
In the process of flashing a ROM and kernel I did a number of things:
-Carrier unlock (I feel like this is the culprit)
-Unlocked the bootloader
-Flashed Wet Dream (2.3.6 build)
-Installed webtop
-Attempted to root, unsuccessfully (let me know when the 2.3.6 root is available, haha)
After all this, everything was working fine--including wifi. But somewhere along the lines, maybe 15 minutes after I complete all these steps, out of the blue my wifi won't connect. It just says "obtaining IP address" and never connects.
So I got pissed and went on a wiping/reflashing spree. Got everything reset. The wifi was working great again. Then randomly, it just stopped working again.
Question:
Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?!
I'm dying here. Just as a side note in case you need this information, I think I'm going to flash to the 2.3.4 Wet Dream so I can root my device. Also, I don't mind going back to stock. If that's what fixes, it then I'll be more than happy to go stock. I plan on running webtop2sd as well.
Thanks in advance.

Benjat, thanks for the reply.
My battery settings were set to "Nighttime saver". I set it to "Performance mode".
I set my wifi sleep policy to Never.
Still have the same problem.
My understanding was that WD was already rooted, but Busybox wasn't installing so I ran Root Check Basic from the Market and it said my device did not have root access

Reboot and still no dice.
Ahhhh! So frustrating!
I was mid webtop2sd install and busybox is required for one of the steps to work. I'm actually not sure what it does.

nvm.. maybe do full wipe again..
what ver of WD u using? with what addon? im using WD 1.4.3 full
I've already done a cache/date wipes to no avail.
I'm using 1.4.4 lite. I'm thinking of flashing the 2.3.4 based WD though (is that 1.4.3?).
I could flash something else too, I guess. I really need webtop (with xfce mod) and I heard Wet Dream works well with it.
If this really is a software problem and it is the ROM's fault, then does anyone have a webtop compatible ROM recommendation?

i cant tell if its problem with rom or what.. 1.4.3 is 2.3.6 base. and yes webtop work well with it.
here's normaly what i do..
Boot CWM Recovery
Wipe data/factory
wipe cache
wipe dalvik
flash rom
reboot to fastboot and do fastboot-w & then fastboot reboot.
let it boot for 1st time (until stable/full load) i left it around 10 mins
then reboot back to CMW to flash addon. usually i flash 1 then boot.. continues untill flash all.. maybe a bit fussy step.. but i prefer all loaded before flashing another
*i never tried webtop2sd yet.. still dont buy bigger mem card coz funding for lapdock
** maybe can try this one to make it clean wipe.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421522&highlight=fastboot+-w
Yeah I realized too late that everything cost me way more than I had originally intended to spend. SD cards have come down in price but still pretty pricey for a 32 GB card.
And thank you for the link. I'll try it out tomorrow and report back. It's 1:00 AM here in Seattle!
Hey Mankey,
Have you tested different Wifi networks to ensure that the issue is not with the phone or the ROM at all?
Also, check if someone else on Wet Dream thread had WiFi issues, if this happened with someone else, then they should have fix for sure!
Usually I do what bejnat mentioned and usually works.
Also, about the root, try to follow a root process again. It happened with me before, then I had to install a .zip file through Recovery mode to have root access again.
Hope this helps!
wouldn't just flashing the radio or a newer radio maybe fix his issue??
Yeah it doesn't work with other networks either. And as for root I don't think there's a direct way to root 2.3.6 yet.
Sk8trix, I think I'll try that after I flash back to stock 2.3.4. I've tried just about everything but the radio. Kernels don't fix it.
I'll post an update in a couple days. I really want to get this fixed.
I had the same problem with my dark side when I 1st got it and to fix it I flashed another ROM ,loaded it then flashed back ,cleaned delvik cache and flashed gapps then rebooted and 1st boot fixed my problem was using 2.3.6 with webtop2sd+nebtop app hope this helps you
Sent from my ics+darkside multiboot mb860 using xda premium
I flashed Iced Bean 4.0 on my xperia sk17i and i think my touch screen died because of it, That rom has aroma installer and there was no my device on that list so i chose xperia pro. Installation was successful but touch screen didnt work. I reverted to stock using flashtools and it still doesnt work. Is there any way to fix this problem? i really need to try something so pleas suggest.
Just to be clear i'm not blaming on anybody, it is total my fault. I'm fully aware of risk installing custom roms so pleas help in any way you can
Thanks in advance
Have you tried to flashing a new kernel which was made for the phone? As far as I know drivers areusually stored within it in Linux / Unix systems so it might apply here for the touch screen as well.
i tried using command fastboot flash boot boot.img and generally did not work. I have unlocked bootloader. I had hard time finding guide to do that for my phone. I did revert to stock using flashtools and ftf file.
When you say fastboot didn't work, do you mean it could not connect to the phone? Where you in fastboot mode when you tried it?
I recently put the 4.4.4 AOPK rom (Link) on my phone and had trouble getting into fastboot to flash the required kernel, I think I solved that by using the flashtool.
If flashing the stock kernel doesn't fix the issue, perhaps using a custom one, which works with ICS, will help?
You can find some here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47407355&postcount=3
-edit-
does this thread help you? [TUT] Fix broken touchscreen problem of xperia mini pro (SK17i,SK17a)
Fastboot worked fine, but any custom kernel after successful flashing didn’t work. I have installed managed to install xperialegacy cm11 it has custom kernel and it didnt fix touch screen. I will try the link you posted. On the side note i bought another sk17 today, yes i love this phone LOL xD
Yess, million times thank you . I made it using this tutorial
here is what you have to do for fix your Bricked touchscreen.
What you need for that is any custom rom with an aroma installer.
1. Flash suitable firmware with Flashtool ( i flashed .587 Because i used Zellycream rom V4 )
2. Then Install any ics Kernel that you like (I installed messa hybrid kernel v4.3 )
3: Then install Any rom that has Aroma installer in it and does support your device, via Cwm recovery (I installed Zellycream V4)
3. While installing the rom choose ST17i in Aroma instead of SK17i
4. Reboot after installation is completed.
5. Wait until phone is On homescree.Nopw touchscreen should work but h/w keyboard not
5. Reboot again into CWM install "keymap_for_pro_XXXX.zip
Link here For Keymap Mini pro
6. Reboot phone again.. Now keyboard and touchscreen should be working. Also options for h/w keyboard should appear now.
Good luck,
It did worked for me hopefully its also going to work for you.
Notice : At first your Touch might not responce how it was before, but give it a time it will work fine after some hours or day or it might never work like before.Mine touch screen worked normally after 8 hours of installing the rom with this method.

Now i have questions. Can for some reason touchscreen die again? and also which rom do you recommend for good battery and camera? i like stock but i find it tedious to root and remove all the unwanted apps only to free up a couple of MB and potential screw something
Update: I see that i need to flash a zip which fixes tochscreen. when installing new rom. Is this hardware or software problem?
It would surprise me if the screen died again from the same issue, as the harmful code should have been overwritten by the fix.
I am not a developer though, just a normal user with some basic linux knowledge.
I'd suggest trying out Real ICS. I think I ran it before I got my new phone (I just recently started using the Mini Pro again) and can't remember having any complaints back then.
Other than that you could just go through the rom list. There are some which claim to be focusing on performance, I haven't tried them myself though.
I currently use AOKP kitkat (with some modifications, see this post) but I cannot yet if I'll stick with it. Maybe gonna try out this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277199 next.
I think im going to stick to the stock for the now. Camera is the best there
I tried swapping motherboard from working sk17i to mine. MB is on stock 2.3 and bt is locked. To my surprises it did not work. Phone boot fine but touch screen does not work. I though this is a software problem, but i guess touch screen device has some controllers or something that were affected too.

I'm confused. Didn't you solve the issue already?
If the damage is permanent, then maybe the touchscreen got damaged by using the wrong rom?
If you really want to have two working phones, you could get a replacent display from ebay. They start at around 30€ these days.
So i wanted too do root again cause back than i had too turn it off. im running the dirty unicorns kernal. But when i flash supersu busy box zip that i found on the net. when its booted and when i try too open a root app or even supersu it freezes and says its not responding than crashs......
So im not sure if i need too reinstall the kernel or what too get root working again???
So i went too the dirty unicorns link on here and the link doeisnt work anymore.... So now what???
I had too disable supersu cause it was making the phone slow down and freeze and this is my main phone....
Why did stuff come too a halt on this phone anyways?? its still fast and has specs of even some today phones..

What ROM do you have on the phone? if it's the DU then I've only seen the SU lag when I first flash and open the settings, other than that it works OK, if you are planing to flash the ROM again then the link you provided is not the latest and has the bug that the camera doesn't work, I know because I flashed it before noticing that it wasn't the latest version and the camera doesn't work (logcat reads something like the "there is no such device" for the camera) if you have the latest ROM installed then don't flash this one and try and re-install Superuser from the Market. I've been looking everywhere and it seems that the Dirty Unicorns ROMS for this phone are gone except the one you found. If you already flashed the ROM you linked and it still doesn't "work" then you need to do a clean install by wiping your System and Data Partitions before flashing the ROM and try again.

If you have Dirty Unicorns 10.6 with the working camera, can you share a nandriod backup of the system partition? I would like to try and flash it to my phone and see if I can fix the root issue and let you know if it worked and at the same time get my phone back on the latest version.

I think i did that too unlock the boot loader when i first got the phone. and going in the recovery does say its unlocked. So im not sure if its wise too try it again but idk.
I just checked the version it says i have official 10.1 with the android version being 6.0.1 so its not the newest... But i see if i can get a backup of it if you still want that?

I think i did that too unlock the boot loader when i first got the phone. and going in the recovery does say its unlocked. So im not sure if its wise too try it again but idk.
I just checked the version it says i have official 10.1 with the android version being 6.0.1 so its not the newest... But i see if i can get a backup of it if you still want that?

My camera just doesn't work with 10.1. Acording to the logcat it has an error stating "no such device"
Hmm yea my camera always worked...
Also i just got root working. I tried kingroot and it made it up too 70 something and than said root failed than everything got laggy and frozen after that.. So i hard shut down and booted it up and rooted apps requests for root which is king root and they work So it seems like root is back working even tho it said failed lol...
But man i wish there was more updates like too 7.0 or 8... This phone can easy support it... The hardware is still good and even up with some of the new phones today that can get newer firmware's... Heck the ones i see that can do 7 ony has 1gb of ram.... Maybe people just dont like it being limited too 16gb.. Which i do understand that.
Also how much space do you have left on your phone? On mine i have 10.61gb used out of 11.44gbs..... apps ony take 2.38gbs images 59mbs and other is 117mbs. were did the other go?
I have always had this issue.

Regarding Space, usually the rest is taken up by the system files.

I asked the OP of the ROM and he mentioned to me that the site took down the files for the DNA and that he didn't keep any copies. So it will be quite hard unless someone that installed the latest version kept a copy somewhere and shares it. I had the latest copy a few months ago, if I knew the were going to take it down I wold have made a copy on my Mega folder, but I didn't :crying:
