:crying: I have HTC One X+ 64gb Telus which is rooted,s-off and boot loader unlocked. I am using Elegancia 6.2.0. I don't know what happened to it. Suddenly Capacitive buttons are not working as light are working. In past it never dropped and I Nevar sit on it. I don't know why it happened. Now i am using LMT launcher from which I am not satisfied and thinking about repairing it. In my city there are no HTC service center but there is a collection point(I don't know what it is??? ) . I searched about this on Internet and found that it may be problem of Digitizer. So, My questions are:
1. By replacing LCD+Digitizer would solve this problem? If yes, then which variant should I buy SHARP or SONY version? As mine is Telus version.
2. Should I go to Collection Point in my city ?
3. Or should I take risk of doing dis-assembly of it ?
4. Or Should I buy a LCD+Digitizer from internet and do replacement by local mobile repairs?
PS: I bought it 2 months ago from ebay and it doesn't have manufacturer warranty. And sorry for my bad english

Friend getting it replaced wont be the wisest decision, I would suggest you to try some other ROMs like ASOP CM10.2 version and see if the problem persists, since the lights are working. Hope if that dosent work replacing the LDC will take some thing around Rs 8000 Indian. I don't know about the make of the Sceen, but I guess going to the collection point might just help, else if you can get it to Bhopal or some thing.
Don't risk dis-assemble it, if you are not sure what you are doing .
Well getting the LCD+Digitizer from ebay I just don't know since it hard to find the OEM version ...
Good news !!!

Hey guys, I just got my touch pro last week and now the keyboard wont work. No drops or water damage. It wont light up or anything. I dont want to have to go back to the sprint store, so if u guys have any suggestions that would be awesome. Thanks.
Sorry
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I had the same thing happen to me. I spent probably a combined total of 8 hours on the phone with different people before I got any kind of solution. I couldn't find anything online. I was out of the initial Sprint Warranty. So Sprint said, sorry, you're gonna have to pay for a whole new device. That wouldn't work, the device was just 3 months old. So I called HTC, and at first they said there was nothing they could do either, until I talked to one person who forwarded me to PCD. They were able to fix it, for free under warranty, they replaced some RFID tag (IDK what that meant, it was in this checklist of tests they sent back) and sent the phone back. All I had to pay was shipping to their Repairs center. The bad thing was, it took them 3 weeks to work on it (only 4 days were shipping there and back). I hope I have been helpful, and I am sorry about the bad news. I know the feeling.
Hey, i had the same problem but i went to sprint and change my device, the new one works perfect, my advice go back and change it.

Not much but maybe
Had one that same thing happened. Performed hard reset and corrected it maybe temp fix though but it worked so far about a week of good use so far.
I had the same thing on my Verizon Pro, what I found was (I took mine apart) was that the cable had came loose from it's connector, I just had to reseat it and works perfect. By the way I bought it that way (got a great deal because it didn't work).

I have the same keyboard problem...it doesn't work most of the time, but once in a blue moon it will....the keyboard lights come on, but no input from keys work....so is that still a connector issue you think? Did you keyboard backlight come on?
2nd question: How do I open my TP?
Thanks.

I am not sure if my keys lite up or not, it has been a while, but it sounds to me like a possible connection issue with it being intermittent.
happened to me twice hopefully tp2 fixes this little issue.
same problem!!! just go to sprint, they can fix the problem... "they changed my keyboard"!!!
yah me too, i took my touch pro back to Sprint and they changed the whole touch screen part of the phone for me in 45 mins and for some reason that fixed the keyboard as well, so i guess the problem is in the touch-screen part of the phone, not the keyboard itself
Try this. Take out the battery and pinch extremely hard on the space button to re-seat the keyboard cable.
I'm not completely sure if it will work as I got my phone replaced before I found this fix.
Try it and let me know if it helped any.

Genius! However, i am not. Your solution worked, however i fear it may be a temporary solution? I want to get this fixed while under warranty and dumb ol' me fixing it, well, now i won't have anything to show the sprint store

go to your phone carrier.
demand a NIB replacement. (new in box)
it states in the manufacturing warranty that you get a NIB replacement for the keyboard. it's a known problem, tell them to call the tech department or htc tech support and they will tell the rep the same thing.
Don't leave without a NEW replacement.
Don't take a refurb(mailed out) replacement.

hahahahahha.
I call BS on that one. lol.
I did it... removed bat', piched key b'. it now works... eeeeeeeeyesss
Got a 0 hour touch pro less than 2months, keyboard started lagging since 2 weeks ago, then extra spaces and duplicate letters and finally died after a charging session in a hot weather day.
Removed battery and press spacebar top and bottom very hard to resit the keyboard connector fixed the issue.
Same happened to me on my Alltel CDMA Touch Pro after having owned it for about 4 weeks. It would also not shut off the screen backlight. Was very odd. Luckily, my Alltel store is literally across the alley from my house, so I ran a full backup using Sprite Backup, walked over there, and they swapped it out for a new phone within 10 minutes. Took me another 45 minutes to restore the backup, but wasn't nearly as bad as sending it away for several weeks to be repaired.
Hi guys, my Hero encounter the touch screen doesn't work periodically, sometimes it became no response totally, after a few days ,it works well, I think this may be caused by the static electricity, Is there anyone have the same problem? do you guys have some methods to solve it ? Do I need to change a new touch screen?
well i droped mine today and now i have the same issue but the strange part is that i just had a replacement screen and there are no cracks or anything else, so you can't see that it felt out of my pocket.
Hello I had the same problem.
I installed several versions of Android and nbh files.
The problem occurred with versions nbh for Froy version of Android.
As I had saved the versions that were tested. I tried to install previous versions where I knew the touchscreen worked correctly. In my tests with this file to the touch screen work again: kaisimg-panel2-320-24-05-10.nbh
I hope that helped
when you say not working properly, what do you mean? the a and l letters on the keyboard dont register unless I press the screen really HARD. so that aria of the screen is unresponsive
what does one do with kaisimg-panel2-320-24-05-10.nbh?

This has been discussed a milion times in the General forum.
Screen problems happen to a lot of Hero owners. Just send it to HTC fir a new screen. Don't forget to install an original ruu-rom on it.

I'm over the warranty. How can I fix it? does the screen need replacing? is the cord detached? whats the common issue of this happening? Whenever I touch my screen the notification bar drops down all the time.
i just purchased a old htc hero selling my spice mi300 i usualy get thr same problem in the lower part of thr screen may be i have to.just live with it as there is no warranty or insurance
I have had the same problem.
Mine is fixed within the warranty period.
But i have read something about failing Digitizers.
Maybe that's the problem?
See this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-595485.html
You can buy them at Ebay just look for HTC Hero digitizer.
Below you find a link to the service manual:

If your phone is out of warranty
Maybe you can fix it by yourself
hi i have atrix like over a year, and last week i had some little bugs with the touchscreen. there is some places in the touch screeen that dont respond so good and i heard there is a patch that fix that bug or there some trick. i looked in google and i didnt found them
i have recently changed my rom to epinter ics 10 and the rom work great and even i got some little improvment on the touch screen but it still work Every now and then bad so if you can link me a guide or something i will be glad
This sounds to me like a digitizer issue. I have an atrix, but only use it as a spare issue, however ive had several phones with similar issues and they were all resolved by replacing the digitizer.

I agree with cloudraker. I've had 3 atrix phones, and the digitizers are a weak spot. I would check and see if you are still under warranty. Motorola is very good about this and replaces the phone usually. I had one that was not in warranty, and they replaced that as well. Good luck.
Careful though. Motorola is indeed usually generous about this, but there's a price to pay - you will more than likely end up with a non-unlockable bootloader.

I haven't done the digitizer, but I have done a number of other parts. The atrix is a very easy phone to tear down. I'm sure there is a YouTube video for digitizer replacement. That would certainly be the cheaper way to go......

Guys finally my Atrix too suffering from touch issues, dead spots on the screen, 2-3 touch points on screen, sleep/wake restores touch temporarily.... Since this phone is not released in my country India, most service centers refused to take this phone to repair I finally decided to buy the digitizer and give it to them! bought the following item

is the phone rooted and if so, is it a custom rom?
How much of it isn't working? And is it just unresponsive or is the display out as well?

So is it just a strip of the screen?
If you really really wanna be able to get it unlocked, Download the correct version of clockwork mod for our phone one that's not touch, has to use the volume rockers and fresh install the rom, Or as a matter of fact, Just boot into whatever recovery you have and clear data/factoryreset, that'll get rid of your lock pin
Hello from me too!
I have a strip on my touch screen that doesn't work. It's right where the Search button and Install on Play Store is and Clear on the Phone notifications, too.
It had the stock rom, I have replaced the screen with the digitizer when it fell down. It worked after that. I had to unscrew the phone one more time because my LCD was touching the screen and the phone had gone mad. After that, and a couple of days later, I noticed that the strip didn't work anymore. Today I finally flashed a new rom (King Cobra 3d) and nothing's changed so I figured it might be a hardware problem...
What's your opinion?
Thank you!

Its the hardware. and your carrier should change it at no cost. (Sprint)

ive had the top bar just under my notification bar non working for a few months now, and its starting to pi$$ me off
I've replaced my digitizer twice myself. I got a cheaper one the first time, and figure that's what I get for trying to go on the cheap. (I was out of warranty). Sorry to say it but it could be that again.

I think I don't have a warranty because I've changed it myself. It's my fault...
I think I'll buy a new one... I unscrewed it a while ago so I could see if sth had been misplaced or if the digitizer had scratches or sth like that.
I saw that the ribbon's top had been ripped off right where it bends on top of the LCD... Don't know if that's the problem...
p.s. I live in Greece. My carrier is Cosmote. We don't have Sprint here...
Yep, if the ribbon cable is ripped, that would be your problem. Don't go too cheap on your replacement. Good luck!

The last one I got from Amazon is the one I'm using now (about a month old), and spent $20 US on it, which was NOT the cheapest of them. Not knowing the exchange rate right off hand, would venture to say the one you're speaking of is not a "cheap" one. So go for it. Just take your time replacing it and be careful with ALL the ribbon cables. Good luck!
