[Q] HTC Hero touchscreen problem - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
A cousin of mine who works at an electronics shop, brought me for free a HTC Hero phone that was on the shop's vitrine, but it has a problem.
The problem is that the screen is not responding to my touch. It look like it has a simple screen, not a touch screen.
Is this a hardware problem or can I fix it?
Can anyone give me the files to flash it completely via ODIN.
The whole phone is OK. Only the screen is having problem.
I have managed to install a recovery image.
Thanks in advance.

Does anybody know?

Hi, that's just the biggest problem, because the imei number is in the motherboard they simply don't sell them, so I bought a second hand phone with a broken screen and made one phone out of two.

Plse use English, my Polish is really bad , It is possible to pass the bootscreen without calibration but I'm not sure you can find a rom who don't use it.

Can you tell me more about the rom you are using.
It might not bee the mothelboard. Had this problem for a few months until my screen just went black one day!
Had to change the screen cable. It's a design flaw, each time you open the phone the cable gets scratched and soon the wires get clipped. I bought a new niki100 flex cable on ebay and open the phone and replaced it and put a small extra tape over the cable to be sure it would happen again...
problem
there is some version of software without the preliminary calibration of the touch screen of some time I hit on so... perhaps somebody will give bearings... thanks
placing a file name welcome.not on sdcard should bypass the welcome thing
hi, i'm new her.
but i had this problem to.

HTC hero touch screen doesn't work periodically

Hi guys, my Hero encounter the touch screen doesn't work periodically, sometimes it became no response totally, after a few days ,it works well, I think this may be caused by the static electricity, Is there anyone have the same problem? do you guys have some methods to solve it ? Do I need to change a new touch screen?
well i droped mine today and now i have the same issue but the strange part is that i just had a replacement screen and there are no cracks or anything else, so you can't see that it felt out of my pocket.
Hello I had the same problem.
I installed several versions of Android and nbh files.
The problem occurred with versions nbh for Froy version of Android.
As I had saved the versions that were tested. I tried to install previous versions where I knew the touchscreen worked correctly. In my tests with this file to the touch screen work again: kaisimg-panel2-320-24-05-10.nbh
I hope that helped
when you say not working properly, what do you mean? the a and l letters on the keyboard dont register unless I press the screen really HARD. so that aria of the screen is unresponsive
what does one do with kaisimg-panel2-320-24-05-10.nbh?

I got the same problem!! whats the fix? screen replacement? cord lose? what what ?!?!?!!?
This has been discussed a milion times in the General forum.
Screen problems happen to a lot of Hero owners. Just send it to HTC fir a new screen. Don't forget to install an original ruu-rom on it.

I'm over the warranty. How can I fix it? does the screen need replacing? is the cord detached? whats the common issue of this happening? Whenever I touch my screen the notification bar drops down all the time.
i just purchased a old htc hero selling my spice mi300 i usualy get thr same problem in the lower part of thr screen may be i have to.just live with it as there is no warranty or insurance
I have had the same problem.
Mine is fixed within the warranty period.
But i have read something about failing Digitizers.
Maybe that's the problem?
See this topic:

You can buy them at Ebay just look for HTC Hero digitizer.
Below you find a link to the service manual:

If your phone is out of warranty
Maybe you can fix it by yourself

[Q] [TOUCH ISSUE] help needed. The correct part to replace!!

Guys finally my Atrix too suffering from touch issues, dead spots on the screen, 2-3 touch points on screen, sleep/wake restores touch temporarily.... Since this phone is not released in my country India, most service centers refused to take this phone to repair I finally decided to buy the digitizer and give it to them! bought the following item
http://www.ebay.in/itm/281018075402...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2414wt_1041
Now i'm little confused, is this the thing to be replaced ??

[Q] Deadspot on touchscreen

Hi guys, i came to my phone today, go to send a text , and the screen is unresponsive where W and E would be on a keyboard.
Is this a Sofware problem, or a easyfix?

More than likely its the digitizer like whats wrong with my phone. The fix requires pretty much disassembly of thee phone.
Deadspot
So this is my problem... Is there a chance it is a software problem?
Not really.

Then do you think that if i replace the digitizer, the problem will be solved? Maybe it's a wire and not the digitizer that is the problem?
Replacing the digitizer almost always solves this kind of problem.
Tomorrow im gonna replace my digitizer. Lets hope i manage to do it without destroying anything. ill post back

when i replaced the digitizer the dead stripe just moved from the left of the screen to the right. I think im done trying to fix this phone. I might as well send it to our dear devs if they can make better use of it than me... still i dont know why but i want to fix my atrix so much... should i buy a 3rd digitizer?

Son you just save me from buying an atrix with this problem, thank you, and god bless you!
