Hello, my apologies if this problem has arisen in the past. however, after rigorously browsing the forums, I came up short.
When I install/ flash the jellybam rom or cm10.1 rom, the screen stops working except for in bootloader and twrp recovery. I heard you have to downgrade the touch panel, how do i do that?
I have;
-HBOOT 2.09
- build 3.19 and I belive everything else is up to date on the latest software.
I _think_ you need to update the touch panel drivers/firmware also, located here: http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...LE-Jewel-Radio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1
tp_SYN3202.img is the latest, but it says it will break touch screen in recovery and on non-stock roms if done incorrectly.
I would ask this question in captain_throwback's latest firmware thread before you install tp_SYN3202.img
I'm only pointing you in the right direction, I have NO experience with updating the touch panel .img - please ask someone who has dealt with this before you do ANYTHING (I just dont want you to break your evo!)

Thanks mate, I'll go there to see what I can do!
Cheers and Thanks!
The newest touch panel firmware doesn't work with AOSP, AOKP, 3.15 based ROMs (or lower), or older recoveries..You need to revert to the old TP firmware before flashing any ROM not based on 3.16.

As far as I know all the files are located in Capt Throwback's firmware thread. You probably need S-Off to flash them though. The new 3.16 OTA updated the touchscreen's firmware. This new update is only good with the latest TWRP and 3.16 based roms..so to flash anything on the old base or AOSP you need the old touchscreen firmware. Hope that clears it up a little.

Yes, I've finally got it to work! Thanks for all the support. All I had to do was follow dirty racun's s-off method. For some reason doing that my build number went from 3.16 to 3.15 and my band version downgraded from 1.12.11.1210 to 1.12.11.1119.

I seem to have the same problem.
I'm running the viper rom on my evo 4g. Was going to upgrade to the latest version and wanted to update firmware first.
I grabbed the latest twrp (4.2.1) installed that, rebooted.
I then grabbed the latest firmware from themikmik, installed that and rebooted.
And i then grabbed the tp_syn3202 update and installed that and rebooted
And now my touch screen does not respond to any touch input. I don't know what to do at this point since they only thing i can do is either force the phone to reboot, or go into hboot by holding down the volume down and camera keys. And all that does is ask me if i want to reinstall the tp update.
I don't know how to get into twrp to even try and install the latest rom assuming that would fix the issue.

nevermind - i got it. I didn't realize if i left the PJ75img.zip file on there it would automatically go into trying to update and not give me any other option. I deleted that file and then i was able to get into twrp and install the rom update.
Thanks

You have to downgrade your touch panel driver to the 3.15 version. Check the thread below and go to the downloads link in the first post. The touch panel driver is installed the same way you upgrade firmware, through the bootloader.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704612
On the page with the downloads, the touch panel zip is in the second post and is labeled " tp_SYN3202.img zip". If you've forgotten how to do a firmware update, hit the top link in my sig and look for the section on firmware updates.
Seriously though, there are plenty of newer, up-to-date ROM's out there. Why would you bother with this one?

Are there any roms you can recommend me ?
Any of the 3.16 or 3.17 Sense ROM's in the Development section, the Sense 5 ports.....and there are a ton of AOSP ROM's in Original Development to choose from. Just try them all until you find what suits you

Make a backup before you go any further. Check out Captain Throwback's firmware thread regarding upgrading your firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704612
If you plan to stick with 3.16 ROMs, you can flash the new touch panel update, otherwise stick with what you have and flash the 3.16 firmware through the bootloader. The upgraded touch panel isn't included with the 3.16 firmware. Also remember that if you flash the new touch panel update you need to be running at least TWRP 2.4.1.0.
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much

yeah i read all that (haven't looked at the thread yet tho). but how do i do it through bootloader??? and the touch panel update is cool. is that through bootloader also??? and how? rename it to pc75 something something then change? and does it have to be in a certain order? and do i need to do that before i do my nandroid?
edit: after reading your link, you the man birmingham
Go ahead and make a backup. Afterwards, download the firmware to the root directory of your external SD card. Name the file PJ75IMG.zip (make sure that you don't have an extra zip on the end or it won't work). Reboot to bootloader. If it doesn't automatically scan for the zip you may have to select the bootloader option in the menu. Just follow the on screen instructions and you should be golden. The touch panel is updated the same way, if I recall correctly (been a few weeks since I did it)

Isn't it PJ75IMG, not PC75? Also, if you update tp, you'll be really limited what ROMs you can use.
From my Evo LTE, yup.

The touch panel update isn't in Captain's firmware zip, so if all you did was update your firmware then you are fine. You have to update the touch panel separately.

Anything that's based on 3.16 will work. CM or anything based on 3.15 or lower need the older one. And Captain_Throwback has the older tp image in his firmware thread so it's not that hard to downgrade if needed.

I am not able to flash any rom.
I am having errors when flashing and I have never sseen them before. I assumed it was from the new firmware I have flashed.
I flashed the 3.16.651.3 JellyBean OTA - LATEST found at http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...dio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1#post220556
I am really frustrated and hate my phone right now because I can't flash the rom I want.
Did you flash the touch panel too, or just the firmware without touch? AFAIK, the tp doesn't work for non 3.16, and will cause issues. When you say you are getting errors, what are the errors?
We can't see the phone and what it's doing from here, need info.

I flashed the full firmware, which apparently has the tp in it.
So that is the problem?
Can I flash 3.15 and be good to go?
Are you s-off? If so you can downgrade the TP only. The zip for that is in the firmware thread.
Downgrading firmware will result in a brick I believe. If you are s- on then either stay with 3.16 ROMs or s- off your phone.

I am not sure really what to do at this point to go back to a base 2.13 ROM.
It will not flash whatsoever after updating to 3.16

If you flashed full firmware, it means that you s-off, what recovery do you use? Downgrade tp first, then you can downgrade recovery if you want, from here. http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/98 Scroll all the way down to bootloader flashable 2.3.1.0

If you didn't install the standalone touch panel update, you don't need to downgrade your touchpanel. The 3.16 full firmware file in the thread you listed does NOT include the updated touchpanel.

So the reason it won't flash is because I'm using TWRP 2.4.4?

Relax man, it's part of my sig. Sorry if you thought it was directed at you-it's not
Ummm......as far as downgrading, one of the root methods had you downgrade your phone. Can't recall which one, can't really be bothered to look it up, but that's how a lot of people got s-off. Technically, you temp-brick your phone, but I mean...it takes all of half an hour, if that.
EDIT: ....well, hell. Not that it matters now. *LOL* Glad it was resolved -- didn't see the other posts when I made mine.
So I just put CM10.0 on my phone, using TWRPS 2.4.4 (CWM didn't seem to respond for me) and I can boot into Android but the touchscreen doesn't work. The touchscreen does work in recovery however. Can anyone help me out here because I've been searching for solutions about this all night, and I eventually gave up and decided to make this.
Thanks, in advance.
EDIT: May I note that I applied CM10.0 because 10.1 got stuck at the CM boot screen for some reason. Also, I was updated to the latest stock software before I started this whole process.
You need to downgrade your touch panel and TWRP to something like 2.3.3.0. to run CM10. Right now you're limited to running ROM's that are software version 3.16. Read Captain Throwback's firmware thread in development for more info. The best way to downgrade would be by getting S-off. Makes life much simpler

Well I think I'm going to put Mean Bean on until I can go to a friend who has Ubuntu (I have 0 experience with it) and then get S-OFF and then I can switch to CM.
Is there any chance CM will simply be updated soon to work with the new touchscreen driver? I can't post in their thread because I'm a noobie.

Your firmware is up to date so no need to downgrade it. You just need to downgrade your touch panel, nothing else. I believe it's posted in Captain Throwback's firmware thread in the development section.

thanks for the quick answer
Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Yes, but there are a few kinks. For instance the roms work perfectly fine without anything messing up. I for one have an m7att and was successfully able to flash roms between the att and ul variants flawlessly. However I then flashed philz advanced touch recovery on the ul forums and once I didn't like it tried to reinstall regular clockworkmod, however i was only able to install the ul version and now i can only flash ul roms. I can't reflash the att version yet because i can't use fastboot on my win8 for some reason so i need to wait til i can get my hands on a win7 again. Flash the roms but keep your recovery the same!
You need to edit the updater-script... Then you can flash anything.
