[Q] Touch Screen Not Working After Temasek Unofficial CM11 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I was using ultimarom till now and it worked like a charm. Today I thought hey lets upgrade to android 4.4 so I found temasek's rom and it seemed fine. After flashing the rom, it got stuck on boot screen. So I reflashed the stock rom (btw I wiped everything as required) and it was working. So I retried flashing the Temasek's rom and it booted this time, only thing is that my touch screen was not responding. The capacitive buttons are working also the touch screen is showing everything but not responding to anything. I searched a little bit, and it might be possible that my digitizer is broken which I hope is not since I am in a different country and it will be a pain to do it here. Also I read that if you tried to install Note 2 kernel/rom this might happen but I know that temasek's rom is definitely for s3 so it shouldnt be the case for me. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

have you changed your recovery?
if you flash now another rom or restore your old one does the screen still not work?

I tried with both stock and temasek once again and the touch screen still does not respond. I always used cwm for recovery though, and did a factory reset on the stock recovery once to see if that works. I can flash ultima as well I suppose but I am not sure if that will fix it.
Edit: I tried to flash ultima but the installation steps required the use of touch screen so I could not proceed.

Are you sure that you download Temasek's rom for I9300 not for another model? Because Temasek supports more devices.
And on Temasek's thread I didn't find any user complaining about touch screen issue after installing it,so I think that you flashed it for different model.

Flash back to stock with odin if problem is still there then it is hardware issue....

I rechecked and it is temasek for I9300. I restocked ofc with odin and it is no use tbh. I mean it is weird as the first time I flashed stock rom the touch screen was not working for 30 seconds or sth than it started working so I was really happy for a second.. After another flash it was not working and I was like yea it will work soon, but it didnt. I tried with loads of roms and kernels and it is still no use.

Any help? I have no idea how to fix this! I may have to send my phone for replacement which will be costly I suppose.. Any little tip will be appreciated.

Didn't u install the new version of Cwm? I'm using ultimarom v16 & I try to use Android v4.4.2... It seemed good to me

Solution
Hey dude, I couldnt find any solution to that problem. What I did was to send it in for replacement but with warranty. For that you need to triangle away your phone and also install the official firmwares. I had to use a mouse in order to do that but you will need a usb to micro usb converter, which is not that hard to find( and also cheap). They couldnt tell that I installed unofficial firmware, I replaced my screen flawlessly. You can find how to triangle away your phone in this forum and also sammobile is the place to look for official firmware.
Cheers

Touch screen response in ICS

So ive flashed ics on my friends SII but from the beginning it had touch problems, for example in the app drawer i have to tap setting 3 times before it registers the touch. For eveything else it works just fine so im sure its not HW related.
Switching kernel improved it (also improved scrolling lag).
Is this a known existing problem with the current kernels? I dont own a galaxy sII so i dont know the issues that are playing atm.
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
no problem might be bad flash or early beta release that you flashed by mistake
Nah, i thought the same but after flashing again the problem still was there.
Gonna try returning to stock and start again with CM9 Resurrection Edition with Odin. If it still persists i gues the problem is hardware related.
and suddenly everything changes.........!
weren't you on stock ICS before? please use stock with full wipe to test such things.

[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 (wifi+3G) screen flickering after trying CM9

Hello guys,
I am experienced in flashing roms and whatever... I already did this hundreds of times with a Galaxy S, Asus Transformer and now with my Galaxy Nexus.
I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 (3G+wifi). I tried to install CM9 but it didn't work. And man... I really tried a loooot!!!
Well... now I am trying to use the regular stock rom in my Galaxy Tab and everytime the screen turns itself off and I turn it on again, it flickers!!! It's VERY annoying since I have to turn off the tablet to be able to use it again.
I have a nandroid backup and I restored it, but it didn't work... it still flickers!!! =P
I also tried to flash some recovery files: http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2487 like you guys recommended in some other posts.
But it didn't work, too.
Guys... I am getting a little desperate in here... I have been searching for an answer for this for days.
Can anyone help me, please?
Have you tried to use ODIN to flash back to stock?

Hello 9xnine, thank you for your reply. Unhappily I don't have a stock rom (and it seems there's none available - Brazil's model).
Anyway restoring a nandroid backup (like I did) would be the same than flash a stock rom back, right?
Theoretically yes but I often find that Nandroid's won't work for a number of reasons. ODIN is and always has been my friend.
Try this. Looks like the ZVV build is for Brazil

Flash by Odin rom from this link:http://www.hotfile.com/dl/145473375/7dd41d4/P7510UEKMP_P7510XABKMP_XAB.zip.html
This is a rom for 7510 but it works with 7500. Then you have to upload the latest CWM and CM9.
For me it works.
The method described in this issue.

Recovered S2 from looping ! BUT ???

Finally managed to get my phone working again...But can someone tell me what went wrong?
I was running JB NEATROM with SIYAH 4.1.5 Kernel. Strde I flashed GS2Wiper and then Dorimanx 9.42 kernel, then flashed CM 10.2. Booted and found all normal. went back and flashed Gapps system showing google maps , playstore error . Unable to use phone. Tried back flashing CM 10.2 and Slimbeam Rom working fine, but when flashing Gapps system gets stuck in booting logo.
Finally flashed old siyah kernel 4.1.5 and flashed NEATROM and to my big relief system operational. I want to update to JB 4.3 .Can someone please advice
are you doing a wipe and factory reset after all the different roms you are trying?
You can often avoid bootloops by following the developers ibstructions to the letter.
Then again, if certain ROM-Kernel combo is known for having this issue you could check that same custom ROM thread for support/fix.
That's pretty much how all of these flashing works.

Gaston, good to see you mate! Been stuck in another book for a few weeks?
@ OP: Beautiful summary by gastonw right here. Read the OP of the thread 2-3 times before flashing. You want to make sure it's compatible with your device, other mods/firmware, and that you know what you're doing during the install process.
Hey hopper, no, it's the UFC era now

Help with Reboot !!!!!!

Hi all
Tried posting before but not getting any answers
Im new to android and have been tweaking my samsung s4 for a couple of months now. I have a Samsung S4 GT I9505 with TWRP boot recovery , nova launcher prime and KitKat 4.4 Google play edition Rom. I have also flashed Faux Kernel onto my phone to prevent random restarts. The problem is I am still getting restarts (about 8 a day) the problem was a lot worse before I re-flashed it with the same kernel. I have tried flashing it again but I still get the same problem. Also some of my apps restart more often then before I had the custom ROM (GPE)
Help would be most appreciated
Thanks
Aiden

Send it back to the manufacturer. It's obviously a damaged phone if it can't last one day without a reboot.
The phone was fine before I installed the rom.

[Q] Mobile Network not available after Flashing to custom ROM

Hi guys,
This is my first time posting a thread in here. I need your help.
My phone is Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100.
Baseband version: I9100XXKI3
(screenshots attached for more info)
I rooted my phone By using Odin3-v1.85. and flashed the recovery to cwm 5.x (i can't remember version) and tried to install custom ROM OMNI
(omni-5.0.2).
I accidently downloaded and installed OMNI for i9100G version. But my phone is i1900 version.
(I downloaded this omni-5.0.2-20141222-i9100g-HOMEMADE.zip ). i forgot to backup previous ROM .
Then i was unable to Turn ON my phone because every time i turn it on, it come back to recovery it self (it's a bootloop i think).:crying::crying:
then i flashed the recovery to CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100 (version 6.0.2.7) and installed custom ROMs and tried (PACMAN,CM,AICP).
It works fine. everything is just perfect. But i can't make calls or receive.
It says "Mobile Network not available". when i call my phone from another phone i hear ringing it. But nothing shows in my phone. after few seconds i got a Missed call Alert. But this happens only sometimes. All the other times. i cannot call it from another phone.
I tried reset and flash modem using CWM as well as from odin. but no luck.
Please Friends Help me. I don't know whether i put this thread to right section or not. sorry about that.
I did all of these things by surfing XDA forum (as a Guest). And i'm happy about what you guys are doing. Keep it up.:good::good:
(sorry for bad english)
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

You might need to reflash stock rom, then try flash custom rom again.

May be the problem with kernal.
Any suggestions???

You will have to flash stock 4.1.2 rom or try a 4.1.2 custom rom. The problem may be caused by the drivers in the built in kernels but I'm not completely sure.
No mobile network on custom roms
I have already flashed the 4.1.2 jellybean rom but 4.1.2 rom also havr bugs. Lock screen doesn't work, I had tried hard resetting but it doesn't solve the problem. I Want use 5.0.2 hazy , cynogenmod, pacman , dirty unicorn, etc and other many custom roms but I'm facing same problem no mobile network, other than that everything work fine....

You mean stock 4.1.2 rom? That's very weird for a 4.1.2 stock rom. Maybe an android 4.2 or 4.3 rom?
You are saying that I should try 4.2 or 4.3 custom rom??

Yep.
I am having same problem with the network connectivity. It happens with all custom ROMs that aren't stock based. I am stuck with Chameleon ROM which is a hybrid and has a stock samsung base. It is a great ROM but is outdated. I would like to upgrade. Any solution to this problem is welcomed. = D
Okay I think I got a solution here. The procedure is:
1) Make sure you are on a stock based ROM or other ROM where your network is working.
2) Backup EFS.
3) Flash custom ROM of your choice.
4) Restore EFS if there is no network.
Done.
To restore efs, you can use any app tailored to do so but for me it didn't work. I followed this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-recover-imei-9-steps-t1264021
Follow the steps carefully and you will have network in any ROM you like. Hit thanks if helped.
PS: Sorry for double post
EDIT 2: Even though my network is back, which confirms that the problem was with the missing IMEI. I found out that the IMEI I got now is a fake one. Got to get the real one back now..
i did flash android 10 in my moto one power
after that i went back to stock rom but noe netwrok is not showing up
