Kindle Fire 6" Replaced screen touchscreen not working now...help - Fire HD 6 and 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Model # PW98VM. I ordered a replacement touchscreen and replaced it myself. Now the touchscreen does not work. Everything else seems to be fine, it just doesnt recognize when I swipe the screen. Is it possible that something isnt connected properly? Has anyone else experienced this and was able to fix it?
Thanks

I think you'd have better luck asking such questions elsewhere. This forum is mainly for software related issues. Try this link: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Kindle+Fire+HD+6+Screen+Replacement/36121

[Q] Screen problem

Since a week ago I'm having a strange problem. Bottom part of my screen doesn't respond well to touch input. I think its kind of out of calibration or is it broken? Does anyone else have this problem?
I've installed several ROMs but all of them have the same problem. Is my Hero dying?
This is a well documented problem. Try searching the forum for the related posts.
Thanks. Unfortunately I couldnt find exact answer to my question.
Would you please be kind enough to give me a link to the solution?

OK. Thanks man. I guess I have problem. Here there is no official HTC center so I guess I have to deal with it. For thos in my condition, The original HTC keyboard works the best for me and with it I have little to no problem unlike default Android keyboard.
I had the same problem before.
But without a service center, you are out of luck.
Maybe try those DIY guides they have on fixing this problem.

[Q] Bad WIFI reception, driver or hardware issue?

Hey guys,
I do got some issues with the WIFI reception on my gtab. The signal is always very low and weak. I tried every rom, even did an NVFlash to go stock but that didnt help either. I did put carbon stickers on the whole device though, can that have any impact? Are there more people with this problem and if so have you got stickers on the device? Please let me know, thanks in adance!!
Peace!
After submitting this post my connection dropped which it also does more often.
Anyone has a clue?
3sade,
I actually had this same problem about 2 weeks ago. I would be directly over my WiFi AP and had a weak signal (2bars) no matter what ROM I used. I called up GTab support (310) 228-4000 and opened a RMA with them. Despite what's I've read in other posts, support was very nice and willing to help for me. They will tell you that you'll have to remove the carbon stick from the device and restore it to the stock ROM. That part sucks but when I got my gtab back (14 business day wait), it is in better working condition then when I sent it to them (the screen is more responsive, seems less sluggish with the stock ROM).
I don't know if this is what you were hoping to hear, but I thought I would pass it along.
I'm sorry to reply to an old thread but I've just recieved a hannspad sn10t1 which I believe has similar if not the same hardware as the GTab. I'm having the same issue with wifi connection, if I actually touch it to the router then I might get 3 bars! I definately cant leave the room and still be connected.
Have I got a faulty unit or is there a software or settings fix? By the sound of this its a hardware fault but I'd rather try and find a fix first.

Most definitely a hardware issue. It sound like your antenna is not even connected at all. I would contact the manufacture for a RMA. If not crack it open and find the antenna

[Q] MID7022 TS Partially Unresponsive

I bought a 7022 with a partially-functioning touchscreen (only a strip down the left side of the screen detects touches). I don't know exactly what the history of the tablet is, but it was flashed with a non-factory OS. This lead me to believe that someone flashed the tablet with the wrong ROM.
fun_ said:
if you have TS bricked 7022 by flashing lk.rom for other tablets, please try lk_hy30_androtab.rom. it should be better to verify camera type and build date first, but if you don't mind if it bricks much more, please try
DO NOT FLASH ANY LK.ROM if you have working TS or if you don't have proper lk.rom or if you don't want to brick your tablet completely.
if you have TS bricked 7022 or other EM73 variants by using FwTool app, it will not fix your TS. lk.rom doesn't erase eeprom for TS controller, so it will not restore contents of eeprom.

I loaded lk_andtrotab.rom from fun_'s website using FWDN but it didn't change the touchscreen problem at all.
I read a post (but unfortunately I can no longer find it) which described how to change parameters that modify the dimensions of the TS. Where/how can I do this?
If you need more info I'll do my absolute best to try to get it! Does anyone have any ideas?
I just found that the 7022 is supposed to have native USB mouse and keyboard support.
Neither will work on my tablet.
I wonder if the two problems (unresponsive TS and no mouse support) are related... Perhaps the drivers aren't being loaded? How would I go about finding this out?
I also have a MID7022 with only half of the touchscreen working. The left half works, but the right half does not. I thought my daughter broke it when she dropped it. I plugged a mouse in because of what I read here, and the mouse works fine. I was finally able to unlock it, and everything works from the mouse. I tried recalibrating it, but that didn't work. Has anyone else had this problem, or have a possible solution to this?
Thanks,
Josh
Strange... I just received my OTG cable and my MS Mouse doesn't work with the Kyros. It's a 5-button mouse, though, so that may be the problem; I'm going to see if a generic moue will work.
I did it with a Logitech g5. It has buttons everywhere.

Touchscreen and fingerprint not working on all stable Android 11 ROMs. Potential hardware problem?

Initially I was thinking I am facing a software issue - touchscreen (and fingerprint) not working after Android 11 upgrade. I've read pretty much all threads about flashing stable ROMs and I've tried the following 3 with no luck:
European
V12.0.11.0.RFQEUXM​
Global
V12.0.13.0.RFQMIXM (the latest , Aug 2021 patch)​
V12.0.3.0.RFQMIXM (the 'stable recovery' ROM, which theoretically fixes everybody's touch issues​
And I had no luck with either of these 3 - no touchscreen, no fingerprint. I tried fastboot, I tried MiFlash - the ROM gets flashed, but touchscreen does not work.
This is when I started thinking this may be a hardware problem. Also, mind you, the problem did not occur immediately after the Android upgrade, it just happened sporadically overnight.
And here is the interesting bit: when I open the phone and disconnect the the left flex cable (connecting to the SUB PCB) - then the touchscreen works! I saw someone with a similar issue on that video
, where they get the touchscreen to work when disconnecting the SUB flex cable. But that is not a permanent solution. Obviously, I can't keep it disconnected as that means no charging, no audio, no calls...
So I am wondering - could it still be a software/ROM issue? If not, should I be thinking about changing the SUB flex cable? Or the whole bottom PCB? Not sure if something funky is happening with voltages there. Local service center said I needed new touchscreen but I am not trusting their judgement.
Thoughts and anyone with similar issue?
Thanks!
Have you solved this problem?
I am having the same problem.

S9+ Non Functioning Screen Data Recover

Aloha Everyone!
My S9+ screen has broken yet I can tell it's still functioning as my alarms keep going off etc and when I plug into my PC it registers the phone and should be authorized on this pc.
However since I can't use the screen I can't change the debug settings or put it into "file transfer mode".
I see Dr Fone, Droidkit, Phone Rescue etc. but they all seem suspect and suspiciously all want 35$. I don't mind paying if they work however they all seem to require I put it into debugging which once again I can't do with my broken screen.
Is there any open source solution to this? I would like the pictures on the internal SD of course but I need a recording I made with voice record for a meeting I have tonight. This is my priority and I am currently at work and don't have the time to scour forums and all the regular things I would do.
Any help is appreciated! I don't think this post is breaking any rules and if it is I'm sorry. The S9+ mention is specific but only because I need to explain the generation of the phone as it's older.
I know this is an old phone and I pray someone sees this, infinite mahalos for any suggestions or replies in advance!
You Rock!
Is your screen responsive to touch (Even if you can’t see what you are touching)?
I saw you said broken, do you mean physically? Can you see anything on the screen?
Could you use scrcpy?
It has a few small cracks that water got into and fried the screen I believe.
My alarms going off at the proper times, if I touch the buttons it will vibrate in the ways it should etc.
It doesn't seem to be responding to touch however and it is black as in off, no color or light.
I am looking into scrcpy! Thanks, if anyone has any other suggestions that would be much appreciated!
Spcry won't work because I am not in debug mode, or rather never authorized it while I had it unlike all my previous phones. I got bored of homebrew apps and didn't bother doing it on this one.
Not sure there is anything you can do. No PC programs can control, no Bluetooth mice, no nothing.
Damn, you would think there would be a program at this point to bypass everything and grab your files.
Thanks for your help everyone!
If there was, I would be patched right away, and whoever reported it would get thousands of dollars for the report.
im pretty sure you can use a usb c hub with hdmi and usb to plug in a mouse and your phone to a tv
This is late, but questions do NOT belong in the Development section. Also, this post is for a S9+, not an S9.
Thread moved to S9+ Questions and Answers.
