Screen Gone! - Asus ZenWatch 2

Anyone still here?
I left my watch face down in some water and the screen is what I think burnt out. The watch works, it pairs with the phone, and the screen might show some pixels or shadows of text, but it's simply unusable.
I tried to see if anybody has a fix or a way to replace the screen (let alone find a screen replacement) but couldn't find any.
Any suggestions?

Weird dead spot

So there's a (what I thought was a dead spot) sensitive spot near the top of my screen. It's about an inch tall and spans the whole screen wide. If you press normal to hard it'll do a instant single click. But I found out if you touch it really lightly it'll function like normal.
Now the weird part is it stays w/ the rotation. If you turn it upside down or sideways the bar always effects the same icons and widgets in its path so I don't believe its a hardware problem.
Anyone else have this problem?
i'm assuming you're using a 101 as this seems to be a normal defect of the device. there is a fix where you have to dig inside your archos to get rid of the flex or you can just make a habit of lightly touching it. it's a pain trying to drag widgets on the screen b/c of this.
you can try to recalibrate the screen to see if it may help any.
Yea on a 101 and the recalibrate doesn't help. What is this fix your talking about?

The fix that madsquabbles is referring to can be found here:
forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=41717
(You will have to copy and paste the link. I don't have enough posts to enter a URL. )
I have also read that it may go away with time and multiple recalibrations, or that it may be caused by a "rogue" application and/or widget that has issues with the device.

Try that one.

[Q] Anyone ever get ghost hits on the screen?

***Nevermind This post. I figured out why this is happening. It was becuase 'use vertical swip to change to symbols' was ticked and apparently just a micron swipe is trigging this on my phone, i type too fast for this option, Turning it off has seemed to fix my problem.****
This is a wierd topic i'm sure, I'm wondering if anyone else ever gets ghost hits on their screen when typing with the on screen keyboard.
I use the regular built in keyboard, no custom rom, no root, nothing, and it seems like 1 out of every 3 or 4 messages i'm typing my keyboard will randomly switch to the symbols, its annoying as hell and I cant figure it out.
You might think "He's probably hitting the key while typing" but its in the lower left corner, and sometimes it will happen when my left hand isn't even typing, i'll be going to hit the I key with my right thumb and BAM i'm in symbols now... I dont know if its exactly the same key every time I cant seem to quite reproduce the problem, it just randomly happens and its irritating.
I'm wondering if there could be some kind of link to the screen protector causing this or not? It's a clearvue screen protector.. I've also noticed when playing around with the screen, that sometimes I can get my fingre sooo close that it actually detects a response, and my finger hasn't even touched the screen yet! IS there some sensitivity thing i can adjust or something? cuz i dont know whats up with this wierdness...
Anyone else?

After screen replacement, everything is upside down!

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?

[Q] Youtube app issue

The clichés of asking for help in a forum as your first post. Oh joy. Either way, this isn't a huge problem for me, but if anyone knows how to fix it, I would be ecstatic.
When in in youtube full screen, it is exactly that, full screen, but, seemingly randomly, I get my notification bar that appears on screen along with the home buttons, and until I force close the app, they won't go away and take up screen space during a video. Any fix for this or am I missing something as to why it's happening?
Attached pictures show immersive and what happens after.
Phone is stock LG g2.

If im understanding correctly here, what you are explaining is screen burn. Unfortunately the panel this device uses has issues with it. There is another thread with users reporting screen burn here https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/help/screen-burn-t3364676
Right. Ghost buttons are shows to me, so it's like screen burn.
But sometimes this just dissappear for while.
It's possible to repair it? I mean fix without change whole LCD in phone?
