[Q] JellBAM, CM10.1 mods after install touch screen stops working, Noob help please?

[SvetKrasivaya]

Hello, my apologies if this problem has arisen in the past. however, after rigorously browsing the forums, I came up short.


When I install/ flash the jellybam rom or cm10.1 rom, the screen stops working except for in bootloader and twrp recovery. I heard you have to downgrade the touch panel, how do i do that?

I have;

-HBOOT 2.09
- build 3.19 and I belive everything else is up to date on the latest software.

I _think_ you need to update the touch panel drivers/firmware also, located here: http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...LE-Jewel-Radio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1

tp_SYN3202.img is the latest, but it says it will break touch screen in recovery and on non-stock roms if done incorrectly.

I would ask this question in captain_throwback's latest firmware thread before you install tp_SYN3202.img

I'm only pointing you in the right direction, I have NO experience with updating the touch panel .img - please ask someone who has dealt with this before you do ANYTHING (I just dont want you to break your evo!)

The newest touch panel firmware doesn't work with AOSP, AOKP, 3.15 based ROMs (or lower), or older recoveries..You need to revert to the old TP firmware before flashing any ROM not based on 3.16.

As far as I know all the files are located in Capt Throwback's firmware thread. You probably need S-Off to flash them though. The new 3.16 OTA updated the touchscreen's firmware. This new update is only good with the latest TWRP and 3.16 based roms..so to flash anything on the old base or AOSP you need the old touchscreen firmware. Hope that clears it up a little.

Yes, I've finally got it to work! Thanks for all the support. All I had to do was follow dirty racun's s-off method. For some reason doing that my build number went from 3.16 to 3.15 and my band version downgraded from 1.12.11.1210 to 1.12.11.1119.

Awesome! Enjoy the freedom of your S-Off device.

I seem to have the same problem.

I'm running the viper rom on my evo 4g. Was going to upgrade to the latest version and wanted to update firmware first.

I grabbed the latest twrp (4.2.1) installed that, rebooted.
I then grabbed the latest firmware from themikmik, installed that and rebooted.
And i then grabbed the tp_syn3202 update and installed that and rebooted

And now my touch screen does not respond to any touch input. I don't know what to do at this point since they only thing i can do is either force the phone to reboot, or go into hboot by holding down the volume down and camera keys. And all that does is ask me if i want to reinstall the tp update.

I don't know how to get into twrp to even try and install the latest rom assuming that would fix the issue.

You can't get into the bootloader? Also, are you on the evo 4g lte?

nevermind - i got it. I didn't realize if i left the PJ75img.zip file on there it would automatically go into trying to update and not give me any other option. I deleted that file and then i was able to get into twrp and install the rom update.
Thanks

You have to downgrade your touch panel driver to the 3.15 version. Check the thread below and go to the downloads link in the first post. The touch panel driver is installed the same way you upgrade firmware, through the bootloader.

On the page with the downloads, the touch panel zip is in the second post and is labeled " tp_SYN3202.img zip". If you've forgotten how to do a firmware update, hit the top link in my sig and look for the section on firmware updates.

Seriously though, there are plenty of newer, up-to-date ROM's out there. Why would you bother with this one?

Wow ! Exactly what i was asking for ! I really cannot thank you enough !! Thanks for your time and patience ! Really appreciate it !
Are there any roms you can recommend me ?

 

[Magnum_Enforcer]

Any of the 3.16 or 3.17 Sense ROM's in the Development section, the Sense 5 ports.....and there are a ton of AOSP ROM's in Original Development to choose from. Just try them all until you find what suits you
