Why are you posting this in the Note 3 forum? You better off in android general. Reporting.

If u reroute the 3rd contact to the vga camera and attach to the 5th contact on ur mother boad it will circumvent L2r1 parameters and then ull be able to flash the note3 dump to ur phone via 2nd receptacle to the 4th degree

I saw in KA sony rom thread you also have this problem. Thanks for making this as separate thread to discuss this issue and find solution to this.
I was searching online and I found many have such problem and have all random solutions to it. like - offline charging the phone, landscape rotation toggle, headphone jack, press bottom of the phone hard etc etc but nothing worked for me
check out these links problem is discussed here but no sure shot solution.

Some work around for answering phone quickly till problem solves - there are apps to answer calls just by pressing button.

My call screen locks up very occassionally, but for some reason if you move the reject slider, hold it and slide it back without hanging up, it will come back to live. Never had a problem with lockscreen.

Yes all back to normal
I still have that problem, but only when my phone is charging... Whn I touch the screen it would jst randomly touch anywhere! I used the show touches option in developer settings in ICS and everytime I touched it.. It showed the random touches too .. But all this only happens when my phone is charging. Rest of the time it works completely fine.

yes, this mean's your phone touch panel is going to die. I also have the same problem, when i connect my phone on charger touch works randomly, when i removed it comes normal. This because i remember i used a duplicate charger and also tried different data cable which is same like SONY cable. So i feel this is main reason my touch panel gone and it is now on service center .
So if you do these all, please stop doing it. And use always SONY's Charger and Data cable to save your mobile from "TOUCH PANEL ISSUE".

I'm shure that they did not changed your touchscreen, and they are lying to you , you should warn them again and take some measures

My phone was with them for almost a month... Later while recieving the phone I noticed my phones front panel was damaged(the lower right of the front panel had broken paint) and the display electronic strip which should be covered was left exposed.. So they kept my fone for like 2months more.. No jokes! Contacted them every alternate day.. They always had the same answer.."we have ordered the parts.. It should be dispatched in a day or two" Thn finally I got my phone back with the front panel replaced.. But the strip was still exposed! I dint want my phone to stay there a month or two more.. So I let it be how it is! IMO I chose the wrong service center... There wer also others who complaining about their service... So now my phone has the touchscreen issue and a bit of the display electronic strip exposed inside the battery cover. Gave them my phone for an issue they gave me back with two!

sk17i camera not working

hi,
i have just got my sk17i everythign was working fine, i had to replace my lcd/digitiser, buy my rear camera doesnt work,
front camera works fine, but when i try to take a photo its just blank, it wont work,
will i need a new camera module? its the lack camera with ribbon cable. i cant seem to find one anywhere,
ive repaired the phone using pc companion to get it back to stock but it still dont work, ive taken the phone apart and blown the connectors and had a look and it still wont work...
any ideas? i cant find a camera module for it anywhere online.
any help would be appreciated
Also whats better? Ics android 4 or gb 2.3.x? Im a little confused. Does it matter what android version u use?

When you had your lcd replaced,the phone was opened up by someone right.
The connection of the camera module is very delicate as it needs to be placed perfectly.
There must have been some disconnection while replacing the Digitizer!
So take it back to the guy who repaired it in the first place.
Goodluck! :good:
Before changing the digitizer if it was working then definitely u should take it to the person who fixed it & claim it was working fine. & ICS comes with alot new features than GB. Try it to feel the difference :good:
And yeah ICS on Mini Pro makes it way better! Try it bro and goodluck!
It was me who changed it, I carefully took it off the main board and it sat in a bag untill my new LCD arrived. Could it need a new one? Or maybe try cleaning it?
Sent from my SK17i using Tapatalk 2
Ooooh.Hmm.No man don't get a new one yet!
Show it to SONY or some other expert.If all fails,Then replacement!
Goodluck!
cant get a replacement, cant seem to find one anywhere, its odd, because the front camera works fine, just when i try taje a photo all i get is a blank screen. ive looked at the camera module and connectors and it all seems ok. i cant find a replacement anywhere!! ahhhhhh!
could it be software related? i have krsh kernal and real icsr4, ive tried to repair phone with pc companion but it still dont work,
does repair phone flash back stock kernel etc?
How about static electricity damage?

Idk about the repair feature but you could take a backup and flash the stock kernel and the stock rom!
Try that man.it'll let us know if this problem is hardware related or software related

im just doing sony pc companion repair now, then gonna try. i took my phone apart while waiting for the lcd/digitiser and the camera module was just sitting in the bag of bits i had while i waited, put the new lcd and digitiser in then i have no camera, very odd.
where can i get a new camera module from? i have no idea what its called where to look, and i dont wanna buy a replacement if its gonna do the same thing.
very frustrating
Yeah very frustrating.
I'm in a crisis now too.my volume up button broke so it's pressed forever.so safe mode forever which means no sd card no apps.where do find spare volume buttons man :/
ok, quick update,
redid phone, and its stock, when i try and take a photo i can hear a type of "clicking" coming from the camera?
Camera still not workin. All I can hear is a kinda clicking noise every 3 seconds. Any ideas?

As I already told,
Did you take proper protection against static electricity before you opened up your device!?
Was the phone properly grounded?
Did you discharge yourself before opening up the device?
Static electricity would have probably damaged your phone's circuits

Yea was grounded etc. Its got to be the camera module but where the hell can I get a new one lol. Even replacing the lcd was a pain in the ass

You need more than delete root and clockwork .
Read the Return to stock for warranty post .
But as you have no screen do a search for how do i with no screen posts .
Or just take to a service centre and pay as warranty does not cover wrong firmware .
Your phone is I9300 ???

Rom Manager is a very respectable application from a respected developer - it could have saved you from all this trouble..
Anyways - as mentioned your digitizer is completely fried and there is absolutely nothing to do about this except replacing the whole screen probably - which will cost you around 200$ if they don't fix it by warranty.
This happened to Erica (youtube) when she flashed CWM from the Note 2 by mistake.
Next time, either stick to simple applications to do it for you, or make sure you have the correct files.
Follow all instructions properly next time too.

No, as far as I know and as Erica explained, there is a little chip behind the screen, and that what get's damaged.
As far as I know, you need a completely new screen - do some research though.

bro thats so sad,:crying: u'll be allways a good helpful member, and now thats happening for u:crying:
i really hope u get u device back by some way..:good:
but anything that u can try on the tech site is to use android device manager to locate it or a 3rd party app (if installed bfore & thief not deactiveted/uninstalled ) , i think
maybe ur lucky & the thief is dumb enogh to use the phone over ur account (google) so u can view history in ur g account settings (all u do, as example if hes visiting his fb site few times u know as goggle saves it & u can view.)
one thing also, i dont know how its in your country but in mine we can get a call log everytime from provider, so if he does uses ur sim for calls u would see it (numbers and calls date & etc.) (and trick a bit aroud to get know or make ameeting )
thats all i think u can do. :crying:

What makes me more mad that I forget to activate avast anti-theft after I switched to a new rom
The thief is already dumb , he does not know how to deal with technology.
So people like him the first thing they do is to take out the battery and break the sim card into pieces.
Then keep the phone off until he will sell the phone in very cheap price.

Well I'm not an expert, but I'll try to suggest you
Try running an LCD test by dial *#0*#
Then you'll see more clearly for colors testing on your lcd.
It seems that your lcd device having problem with burn in or even burn out screen. It may caused by having the phone screen on for long time, or because got under the sun shine for quite long time.
Try to contact your friend with the issue. Hopefully I was wrong and your device can be back to normal
