[Q] viewpad 7 multi touch screen problem

---

Good day! just like to ask how can i fix the multi-touch screen on my viewpad 7 after ROM change. the unit was just given to me by my cousin with issues already (multi-touch screen problem) unfortunately, default rom were not saved. please help me. Thank you!

Can you be more specific about your screen problem(s) - i.e. not responding at all? What rom is it running now? Identifying info from the label on the back of the device?

MY CW Recovery v2.5.1.2
i'm currently using TJ style by downloading update 2.2.2 boot.zip and update_tj.zip to my SD

only the screen nearer to the navi keys are working. i have to put two fingers if i have to select icons (by chance)

my procedure:
1. i format/ partition my SD card (1024-0M)
2. i copied update 2.2.2 boot.zip and update_tj.zip to my SD
3. i use CW recovery and choose "install zip from SD" first update_tj.zip and immediately update 2.2.2 boot zip before i reboot

after rebooting, i cannot use multi-touch screen.

the vpad7 was just given to me by my cousin having problem with no touch sensitivity at all. worst, he did not backup the original ROM. i even try amalgation euviepad7 1.7b.zip but still no response. please help thanks in advance! i'm a newbie in configuring this device so if you can help me in step by step procedure would be a big help. thanks and happy new year to everybody!

my viewpad 7
model no VS13761
2011-04-06

FTM
SWVER=3.620
MODEL: FM6-001
HWVER: 106

I've flashed euviepad7 1.7 and the touch screen failed to function too. Then I've flashed euviepad7 1.7 ITE and the problem was solved.

i even used euviewpad 1.7b ITE and it works fine after a few hours then went back with the same problem after i accidentally left it in my bag and had scanned in a bag check. then after that, i cannot restore it again... maybe i missed one of the procedure specially the flashing or the the oneclick root. can you just give me detailed step by step procedure? thanks! Sadly i don't think we have a viewsonic service center here in the philippines specifically for viewpad 7. I'll try to re-install euviewpad7. thank you very much everybody and happy new year!

Happy New Year of 2012, just realized that for many in Asia - it has arrived.

Ok, back on topic - it sounded like the problems isn't a software/firmware and/or ITE or non-ITE issue, but rather, just a defective display that need to be exchanged/repaired at VS's authorized service center. The newest EU v1.7 ROMS is very smooth with a choice of both ITE and non-ITE ("older") kernel and virtually free of any issues, been running mine on it for past 3 months with A2SD running, everything just worked (except for Adobe Flash 10.x of course.)

As a last resort, use the earlier posted thread's link to download the utility & stock/oem firmware to restore/reflash it - and if that still doesn't work, the choice is (unfortunately) to send it back for a warranty claim based on your region's prcoedures.

thanks a lot sir! i will send my unit back for repair today. yup! i guess it has defective screen. thanks a lot sir and happy new year to all!!!
