[Q] LCD ok, touch don't work - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Goodnight everyone .
Look my situation .
Bought an S4 i9500 the week of release in the U.S., at the end of last year the outer glass cracked a few weeks later I was replacing the screen with the technique of the " hair dryer " and ended up damaging the underside of the touch . The phone continued to function normally , with the exception of the bottom that was damaged . I bought a screen in mercadolibre of a seller with 100 % positive rating and over 300 sales , having exchanged the screen , the LCD showed the images perfectly , but the touch does not respond to touches of my fingers . I sent the screen back , he said the screen was fine, but he sent me a new one and the problem remains the same . Detail , with the old screen ( original ) I can feel the touch works, since the cell responds with vibration error when the default password . According to detail , my phone is rooteado with " Cooface CMM recovery 3.0 " .
What do you think it might be?
Some incompatible hardware or software of the LCD screen with cooface firmware or the database itself from the phone?
Some hardware defect motherboard ? Even working with the original touch screen damaged ?
What do you think it might be? Thank you!

Have you tried flashing a ROM to see if that fixes it

I did the "factory reset/wipe data", is not the same?
Is there a chance to be a hardware problem? In motherboard?
Thank you.

I would try starting from scratch with 100 % stock by Odin flashing full wipe tar of the same bootloader version you are on...you would again have to root and get recovery back...may fix it by just flashing...but the stock ROM has all the debugging tools and utilities to possibly recalibrate touch...I think on stock ROM there is a mode that allows you to calibrate all touch related and also test hard buttons...

[Q] Touchscreen Problem

I have a problem with a touchscreen. This can be seen that in the lower left corner of the screen, the phone detects a second touch. I put a screen shot of the presentation of how it looks in the test. This occurs on every rom 2.3 +, excluding Glsmt 2.1. When I plug the charger problem disappears. Whoever knows how to fix it?

Hi
someone fix this bug?
My motorola atrix is a problem with the touch after I managed to release "root", you have to play lower down the keys to be hit from above, in addition to the menu buttons do not work, but half of it straight up works best, does anyone have any solution?
Perhaps a better bios reset, or a full format! hardware will be? or software?
Somebody help!

This problem is fixed in KPY, i have this one "GT-S5830_XEU_S5830XWKPY-S5830XEUKP1-S5830XWKPA-S5830XWKPY4" and problem is gone.
I have the same problem..
My phone registers random touches in the lower right area, approximately above the middle of the home and back button. I have Indian firmware S5830DDKQ5, and the problem started just after I upgraded to it by official Kies update. Before this, in Froyo, this never happened. I thought maybe it was a hardware problem in my phone or the screen protector was causing it, or maybe something broke due to some fall to the ground, but you have the same problem, originating from 2.3+ roms, so perhaps not. I have not tried any rom except the stock one.
icemanhi, you say it is fixed in XE/XW KPY but KPY would come before KQ5, wouldn't it? I'd like to not go to an older firmware, because we don't know what the changes between them are.

Even when the phone is kept undisturbed on a flat surface untouched it still happens...
icemanhi, you say it is fixed in XE/XW KPY but KPY would come before KQ5 and I don't want to put something other than the stock official firmware. I cannot just keep changing roms either, I don't have time for that..
Please if anyone has a fix then share it.

take your phone to samsung service center and tell them about this problem
But...
I can't make the problem show up on demand.. the people at the service center will say, show me what happens, but it's random, so I can't show it to them. Then they'll say, "the problem is not happening in front of us, so we can't do anything." Still, I'll ask, but would prefer a different solution. Thanks.

Touch Screen Failure in multiple parts

Hi Guys ,
I searched every where but all i could find was that Motorola Atrix 4G has some technical error / hardware failure that many of the devices have face a problem with a non-working screen portion in the LCD , Has anyone over come this , atleast by replacing the touch screen.
Also , my volume down button is not working . I am not sure if its a hardware fauilure coz i can enable fast boot protocol while the phone boots.
I had theses issues before the phone was rooted or the bootloader was unlocked , which left me empty handed.
Only thing I had done was an OTA update 2.3.6 , but buy the time i got this phone the OTA update was done and these issues were there and i didnt identify them at that point
Please advise ...
Thanks !!!

I'm havving the same problem! Some parts of the touch screen stopped working after updating to the 2.3.6, but i did'nt do it OTA, I did via RDS lite
Digitizer borked.
Had exact same issues on two different atrixes....phone was still under warranty..returned to store a month before warranty got a new one..a month later, out of warranty the volume down stop working,...if u are out of warranty( most likely)...you have to replace digitizer....the volume button u have to do without it, I use notification toggles app to control volume from status bar...
You can find both digitizers and camera flex cables (that include vol buttons) on ebay for cheap

Hi
What do you want to do?
If your screen is broken, you could "do" something via ADB, but not so much.
PERHAPS you could delete your lockscreen (you can do, search), make the device boot wisthout sim cadr (=no pin), install (adb install) something like airdroid or similar (i do not know such apps), launch it (inside ADB with "am" + something) and hope you can "use" your phone via PC.
Ok looks more like SCI-FI!

My friend has a Mini Pro with broken lcd , he broke it 6 months back but he still manages to use till now with out any problem....
try flashing custom kernel and a new ROM , If that doesnt help.... u have to go to customer care..
Re:all
thanks all, but i'm sure that lcd is fine (maybe), because, before that (suddenly restart) my phone is allready fine with all function normally (although my lcd is broken but touch function is normal). until restart happen, my phone was not start up again. in lcd i see blank, no logo and anything. just vibrate 2 times. in that condition i think, i can make a call for test but the warning from sim operator said that my phone was turn off.

for Publiuss, i hope you can give me tutorial how to controllling my phone via pc in condition my phone like now.
maybe use the usb cable to know that my phone (until flashing rom or kernel) was working or not, and if i can getting that, means, my phone trouble in lcd.
i will keep out for cust care if i can solving my trouble by self, because maybe if i have to go cust care they will charge me cost not much different with new buying this phone.

Well Man i say is not software problem. If you flash stock firms, custom roms and kernels you manipulate all the system if the phone dont turn on is a ardware problem. Search a tuto how to open you phone and see if dont have nothing wrong. The conection screen "flex".you see all ok buy a new screen on eBay. Try. After all that phone is very important for you.
Press thnks if I helped to your mind.
Sent from my SK17i using xda premium
actually i had the exact same (or similar) problem after 6 months of ownership.
1) broken screen, dropped phone several times, everything still works no trouble
2) random restarts
3) boot problems, restarts got more frequent
4) can no longer boot, only a lit black screen, no SE logo
Does that sound familiar?
I understand it could be a HW problem but the only thing I can think of is the digitaliser/screen. Try to replace that and see far you get, you can find a replacement cheap from ebay (they come free with tools) and also disassembly guides are on ifixit
please post your results!!
Mini Pro screen is really vulnerable, so even a little defect can cause further issues.
I had a Mini Pro which its screen cracked when I dropped it, it was fully functionable for weeks then one Friday touchscreen didn't response anymore.
I visited a technician and paid about 4,000 Philippine pesos to get it fixed.
Second defect happened after I came back to Korea, when I dropped it toward the wooden frame of my bed.
At first the screen had several purple horizontal lines, then soon it completely blacked out.
It still exists inside my drawer, and since I loved its keypad, I recently ordered $20 screen set in Aliexpress.
I have a question: Did you fix your device after writing this thread? Was the problem related only with the screen?

[Q] Screen working but touching isn't

I wiped my phone (had lots of problems, phone in boot-loop .. etc.. I "think" it turned out to be a simple hardware problem, the power button is stuck sometimes .. and sometimes it's not.. so got unlucky) ..
anyways I managed to "miraculously" wipe the phone and make it clean .. however another problem popped up.. the screen is working just fine with the display... but once I tried to input with touching it didn't work at all
I installed a CWM touch recovery to test in recovery mode and still the touch is not working..
I think it's a hardware problem, but what exactly could be the problem here?
Usually due to flashing the wrong file, blowing the digitiser. Only fix is a new screen assembly.

try flashing the stock rom again with the wipes once.
if the problem persists, m afraid it would BE a hardware problem.
woh a single flash file can blow your whole screen, that seems weird to me, I've always thought the hardware issues can be caused by software mistakes but not to that extent, I don't think I've installed a wrong file though ..

I'm sure you fried your Digitiser by flashing wrong file.
See here there are others too.

I guess you're right on this one.. I was very careful on downloading everything for S3, but I think while desperately searching for a solution I didn't notice a download in one of the CWMs and fried it.. oh well .. everything went down the drain ...
so a replacement of the digitizer shall do? if I could give it to the service repair, not the whole screen, just the digitizer?
or I have to replace the whole screen?
I've said a replacement of a digitzer ONLY would help because I've seen many sites close to my place (Malaysia) offering Digitizer only and they claim it would be help with non-responsive touch issue.

[HELP NEEDED] Digitizer power-up problem

Hi guys,
I used search, but couldnt find anything similour to my problem. Hope someone can help me out.
Regarding:
I got a Tronsmart PS7 MTK6592 (7 inch dual sim octa) phablet for 4 months and it is absolutely a great device, but it turns me down sinds several weeks and is driving me nuts... cant find a solution on the internet or on XDA forum
The phablet has never been flashed with another rom.. i did flash Root and CWM, but that was never an issue for 4 months.
Problem:
The screen responce: it just wont respond to my touch.
When i use the powerbutton several times on/off, the screen starts to react to my touch and i can use the phablet fully.
When i power-up my device everything works, sound, LCD, ledflash and hardwarebuttons, but not the screentouch. The only option is to pull the battery and start all over again booting the phone, hoping the digitizer will respond. Sometimes it does, mostly it doesn't.
What have i done myself to make it work:
When i restart the device with power+volumedown i get the debug engeneer factory test. when i use the lcd screen test, it works flawlessly, even when i try it for several times, the screen touch response allway works.
When booted, I tried the MTK engineer mode *#*#3646633#*#* but this screentest is useles, because when the touchscreen works, it just works...
Flashing stock rom for 11 times... wiping cache and dalvic for 5 times without exiting recovery etc on every flash, nothing works.
When i restore my backup with CWM, the device just works as it should, but the touchscreen problem still persists.
Just restoring data or system, nothing worked... the device works, but the problem still persists.
I openend the device to check if some connector is loose, but everything was just fine. I just pushed the connectors some more just in case, but it wasnt a solution.
Chinese supplier help:
I had email exchange with the supplier of this phablet, but the only thing they could think of is flashing a stock ROM and do all the standard clear cache and wipe dalvic solution, so that wasnt much help.
they offered me to send back the phablet to them, but they are not clear about warrenty etc. so when my device is in China, they could basicly charge me with anything they want... and i dont want be in that position.
My own conclusion:
As i have mentioned before, the screen begins to work when using the powerbutton on/off for 10 times, so basicly the device is allright, just the digitizer (touchresponce) isnt been powered up i think... or something in that direction. If the digitizer was broken, it wouldnt work at all i guess, so it has to be something like that..
Question 1:
Who can help me out with this one...
Does anyone have experienced my problem with his/her (MTK) phone and if yes, did you find a solution?
Question 2:
Is there a script or buildprob. / int.d value that i can set to mandatory push/activate the digitizer?
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Axelman
I had similar problem with my phone and after I installed screen protector problem was solved. Don't ask me why

Hi,
I am on a new level on the touchproblem i am having.
I got to the understanding that the digitizer/lcd panel has a chip of its own that can be flashed.
giving the touchpanel a firmware update, it could help the digitizer to act normal again.
Herefore i opened the device to look what brand and serial this chip has.
DATA:
Digitizer Kabel says:
EKT CE9921219
Digitizer Chip says:
ilitek
2139QT004
AM2C08075
Dil051010.1
Now this should be enough to get some driver to flash on the chip with a utility, but i cannot find anything on the internet (i am searching for 2 days now)
Anyone got any ideas?
Thnx in advance
Regards,
Axelman
Problem solved.
Flashing rom of another factory (luftco one-x) solved the problem
