Hello!
I recently changed a cracked display on my l7777.
When I turn on the phone everything works just fine, including all tests using *#0*#.
But if I lock the screen or it locks itself after some time, the screen is upside down, really bright, and the touch inputs are reversed, for example to pull down the top bar, you have to drag from the bottom. Also sometimes crashes the *#0*# test or it shows failed.
Im not sure what is causing this, I tried apps that force the screen to certain rotation, but they barely work and the touch inputs are still reversed.
Sadly I only have access to limited technical support (I live in Bolivia) but I was wondering if there is any way to fix this, if the phone works perfectly on start up, maybe someone knows how to remain like this, what happens when the screen is locked?
Thank tou very much in advance for any help

Sounds like the digitizer was inverted somehow when the screen was replaced.

I would say, go back to the tech that replace it for you and tell them to fix it at no charge. But if you were the one that did it, I would suggest to go to someone that know how to do it.

Thank you, is there any way I can check if this is what has happened?
I cant take it back, Im afraid they could make more damage, and there is no good tech service near me, I have searched a lot.
Is there any way I can do this myself?
I was hoping that since everythings works ok until the screen locks, there may be a software fix for me.
You can do the repair yourself. I'm sure you can find a YouTube video to walk you through it. It might be worth it to tear it down and then rebuild it so you can make sure all the connections are secure and nothing is binding. There is not a lot of space inside, and it's easy to bind the ribbon cable.
Good luck!
Hi, same thing happen to me. Could you fix it?
My touch of SK17i no longer works
A few days ago he came to presenting a problem to the touch when opened and closed many times the touch qwerty fought
Over time the problem was getting worse, when I pushed the button to unlock or home he lit only the physical buttons and the screen went dark
After many attempts I finally managed to light mecher on mobile with qwerty open, but now he stopped once more and I can not use it, just a black screen.
Sorry my bad english, i using translator
My SK17i has unlocked bootloader, i use CM10 extended
Please someone know help me?
Hi, recently I started facing touch screen issues.
My touch sensitive buttons aren't responding and sometimes the lower part of the touch screen is unresponsive. That is fixed with a gentle squeeze and a lock and unlock. Sometimes the touch behaves as if I'm using two fingers than one (scaling when trying to fast forward video using one finger )
Sometimes the entire touch screen goes unresponsive which is fixed with a lock and unlock. The scroll becomes dead slow too sometimes. Again the fix is the same.
I'm not sure if this is a firmware issue or hardware issue. The rest of the touch works fine.
I'm using a Gionee P6
I tried to trouble shoot using the secret star codes but unfortunately the menu is in Chinese for this device.
If someone could help before I send it in for repair which will take a long time I'd appreciate it
EDIT : I Was able to use the touch screen testing from the diagnosis hardware menu and there are no dead points. Every part of the touch screen responds. Except when I actually use them in Android
i have a problem where my screen is upside down but touch input is registered right side up so the phone is kinda unusable, it is a chinese clone of the galaxy j7108 with mtk6580 which i tried to flash with another firmware but forgot to do a backup so i'm srewed. is there any way which i can rotate only the view but not the touch input bcs i tried a few applications but they rotate the touch as well. please help!!!!:crying::crying::crying:
Same problem
I've read many, many post and a lot of people are having the same problem, including myself.
I ported twrp to my mt8163 device and the touch is 180 degrees off.
If you find an answer to this problem please let me know.

Hi,
I recently rooted my Note 4 (in efforts to installing a custom Rom on the device) and everything went successfully until I realized that my touch screen positioning is all messed up.
The touch screen is responsive but where I click and what gets selected is all effed up. For example- the option which is at the bottom right on the screen gets selected when I press somewhere in the middle right section of the screen. It seems the touch option is all scaled up.
I installed Samsung default Rom in efforts to fix this but the problem still persists.
Any idea on what can fix this?
Cheeers,
K
bump !
