Hi everyone,
A cousin of mine who works at an electronics shop, brought me for free a HTC Hero phone that was on the shop's vitrine, but it has a problem.
The problem is that the screen is not responding to my touch. It look like it has a simple screen, not a touch screen.
Is this a hardware problem or can I fix it?
Can anyone give me the files to flash it completely via ODIN.
The whole phone is OK. Only the screen is having problem.
I have managed to install a recovery image.
Thanks in advance.
Does anybody know?

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

Thanks :angel:

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?
I have a strip of my screen the doesn't work that's righty over where the top row of keys is.

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!
Common Hardware Problems on evo3D
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!

I wonder why is there only one part of the touch that doesn't work if the ribbon is like that, in the bending spot...
thank you! i'll try it as soon as i can and i'll get back!
If i buy a new one from Amazon will it be allright? It costs around 10 pounds... The other one that i've changed and now it has a problem i've bought it for 60 euros from a local store here in Greece...

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!
alright XDA, I need help! D: my Evo 3D (CDMA, Sprint, first hboot to be unlocked)
well, the bottom left and right of the touchscreen touch above where I touch instead of where I touch! and it's not a software issue because i tried multiple RELIABLE roms that never had the problem before, and are different android versions, it does it in 4EXT recovery as well.
Roms tried: DEVILTOAST
WILD FOR THE NIGHT
and the latest MIUI
My guess is it's the digitizer, but if it is, I can't find a place that sells it without buying a touchscreen package.
If it's the digitizer can somebody link me to video on replacing it and where to buy it? or suggest an alternative to fixing my problem? because switching to the numpad but instead hitting shift on my keyboard is annoying, and having to turn the phone on it's side to add contacts... also annoying.
Thanks in advance!
Screen and digitizer go together, you can't buy them separate

i think a connector either broke or is loose when you did your swap-outs.
which items did you buy--oem or jobber?
