[Q] Help x10a screen touch not working after flash

Hi,
I flashed my x10a with latest flashtool with 2.3.3 firmware. The flash was successful, but after the flash it's screen touch is no more working. I thought that there might be problem with the firmware that I used, so I again checked with many firmwares, but none of them solved my problem.
Then I tried to repair my phone with Pc Companion, it says that no software is available for my phone. Also I tried with Sony Update Service, this also said no software for my phone.
I am tired now. I tried all the methods that I found on internet. Isn't there any solution for me now? I know that It's not a hardware problem because before flashing its screen was working without any problem. I know you guys here are expert in android problems. So hope you will help me in this problem? I am from Nepal. There isn't sony service in my country. What is the solution for me? I need your help....:crying:
could you tell us exactly what you flashed with flashtool ?
and what i understand is that your phone DOES work it fully loads up but not responding to your touchscreen ?
and any other info on what you might have flashed ?
it could just be freezing (so it seems like its not responding)

Bro thanks for your reply, I flashed X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic.ftf, X10a_3.0.1.G.0.75_AMERICA-US GENERIC 1233-8200.ftf, and few more firmwares like this. I used flashtool-0.8.0.0-windows_2.exe to flash the phone. Ya you are right my phone DOES work it fully loads up but not responding to my touchscreen
Keys are working well, volume keys, back keys all are working. After flashing finished option comes to choose the language and I can't go ahead than that because screen touch will not work.

did your touchscreen worked on 2.1 firmware
as im googling for this problem EVRYTHING leads to software problems.
for example this post
"''The touchscreen on my phone stopped working. Everything else is working (buttons), except the touchscreen. It shows everything but I can't do nothing with my finger.. I've had this problem before, but then it could be fixed by simply taking out the battery and rebooting that way. This time that didn't work. First thing that I tried was factory resetting the phone, clearing all caches, etc. Touchscreen still not working after booting. Then I flashed SonyStyle V1.1 touchscreen still not working. Then I 'repaired' it with SEUS, touchscreen was working fine.""
so the best thing you can do right now is use SEUS to get back to original firmware.

Star N9880 (Upai N9880) Auto rotation error

Hi,
Somedays back My phone just got stuck at the boot animation... So I restored it to its factory rom: upai_n9880I stock rom: 20120804_e1811_v75_jbaol1_g88. But when I went using the camera, the camera was inverted and if I turn in to lanscape, it would rotate but get inverted like in portrait mode. Now the games were also working flipped... The guy in Temple run now turns right if I tilt to the left and so forth.
So I tried flashing the phone with Taiwan upai N9880_ICS_V.01... but the issue remains. I tried reformat the flash and re-installed Taiwan Rom... the issue remians.
Can someone let me know how to fix it. I am new to all this and want to get it fixed if possible
Thanks,
Bharat

Maybe the fingerprint sensor was damaged, I suggest go to service center and let them check it.

Thank you :good:
But I installed Resurrection Remix to my phone. The rom has 2 bugs. And then I installed android 5.0.2 from sammobile. I think this problem for this reason

Besides even the fingerprint scanner doesn't work you can still use your phone so don't do anything that will make it unusable.
Anyway Galaxy alpha was released september 2014 so its still under 12 months warranty, but for safe just leave it to the experts

You're right. But I rooted this phone
i do have the exact same problem. fingerprint won´t work after i flashed Resurrection Remix.
I even did a full reset to stock with kies. still the fingerprint won´t work.
Anybody know a fix? maybe it has something to do with knox being set to 0x1 ?

But it worked fine before. Why would it suddenly not work after reflashing stock rom again?
It didn´t drop or anything that would explain a hardware error.
I have exactly the same problem. Was happening before Xmas so they sent it away for repair. Apparently some glue had come loose!
But 2 months ago it happened again. I cleared the cache and forced stop on the fingerprint and it worked for a day or two. Then stopped again. About 15 attempts to do the same again and it finally worked long enough for me to change my backup password to something simple. Not worked for weeks now even though I've done a factory reset. The about 4 weeks ago my boyfriends alpha did exactly the same! Surely this shows it has to be a software issue? I'd love it to work at least long enough so I can change to pin to unlock.
Same thing happened to my alpha .
It was working fine since i bought alpha (7 months)
But now its not working , now what to do ?
Service centre has ordered Home button/Sensor .
Will it fix ?

Are you sure you never damaged the home button, perhaps dirty fingers or scratches can cause issues to the fingerprint scanner.
No , i haven't dropped my phone or scratched .
I feel the same friend .

Hello, I too feel the same, update my Samsung Galaxy Alpha and not work the fingerprint reader . There is a solution ? I'm worried.
I went to the service centre , and they replaced home button in warrenty.
Now its working
Well, I have the same problem. My Alpha G850F is under Lollipop.
We actually are a lot of users having problems with the fingerprint sensor, isnt'it?

Probably use Titanium Backup and clear all data on Application "Fingerprints" Try again but didn't work search on youtube.

Also I have this problem too but not rooted or never factory reseted my phone...
Mine too does that...what can I do?
Has anybody downgraded to a lower update? Maybe early 5.0.2 firmwares or even 4.4.4 and see if it gets fixed?

S6 edge g925f freezing on system but stays on recovery

Hi
I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to ask this
I have bought a used S6 edge yesterday and that phjone was restarting and hanging some times and freezes forever. sometimes it restarts automatically but sometimes I have to restart it using button combo.
I have flashed Factory formware combination and it worked realy fine. nothing hangs and also stable (than the normal TW)
I have tried TWRP and it also works fine stays in recovery mode as long as i need without hanging.
So this hangs only on TW system
Please be kind enough to give me a solution
In sri lanka it costs arround 55000/= for this model. Unfortunately I do not have any warranty for this. And that was # months of my salary :crying:
EDIT : Tried flashing custom roms. Nothing changed
Tried flashing factory binary (borrowed from a friend) works fine without lagging. No any error on that.
Tried flashing official nougat again. Frozen at setup and remain rebooting...
Please guys help me.... :crying:

Try a different stock firmware just to be sure it's not corrupted.
Which custom rom did you Try?
