Help!!!! - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i was replacing my g1 digitzer. I had the guide with me still took me 12 hours to figure out how to do it. i disassembled assembled it thousand times before the slide was properly working and touch screen was functional. Now the problem is, something is wrong i cant figure out.
When i open the keyboard the screen doesnt flip orientation. It does on its own.
When i type through keyboard the buttons change randomly and they dont respond to what i am pressing
. The music volume bar shows up it self , the sound is very very very low from the speakers.
Camera still works.
touch screen working perfectly.
The trackball, menu button, and all those on that panel are working fine.
please help me fix this thing

This not the right place for this. But might have somthing to drivers? And know this probly won't help but u should wipe ur phone if you have not all ready.

Youll have done what i did when i swapped my housing round, i missed 1 conntction that stopped my touchscreen working,,, and then i realised i put the keyboard sensor on upside down :how embarrasing smiley:

actually i damaged one of the connectors on the strip of my keyboard
everything else is working now except for few alphanumeric buttons!

D-Pad locked unless i slide open keyboard (wing)

well today I flashed my phone again (for the hundredth time...nothing new here) it was either open touch 5 lite or itspoppa rc5 that i had when it started...but my directional buttons on the d-pad went out 1 by 1 over the course of a few hours. i thought my up button was just broken at first...until i realized it worked if i slide the keyboard open. now when the phone is closed the d-pad doesnt work at all it doesn't even register that im pressing buttons to extend the backlight time...but if i slide open the keyboard magically they all work?! i've flashed to t-mobile stock and had the same problem and took out the flash card and flashed to open touch 5.2 and still have the same problem. the keys work because its PERFECT when the keyboard is open? i dont understand whats going on! ive searched and googled forever and never heard of anything like this =[ idk what it could be from?! could anyone please help me? thankyou
you can delete my thread in the rom development section i didn't mean to post there.
it sounds like the ribbon cable is loose between the two halves of the phone. but I could be wrong
i'd be willing to open the phone up and take a look...had to do that to a laptop to fix the screen before the ribbon vga was loose. does anyone know how exactly to open up the wing? lol. if anyone can point me towards a tutorial thatd be great.

help-Replacing the screen lead to frustrating keyboard/button issue.

After replacing the screen and reinstalling the HTC Rom I am having the most frustrating keyboard/button issue.
When I turn it on everything works great, it's like a new phone. No problems.
When the screen shuts off, either manually or automatically and I turn it back on is when the problem arises. When using the phone with the keyboard, the phone seems to randomly after any key (only on the keyboard) push the center button the front.
Lets say I'm typing in Word, after the 3rd character for example it will save and quit. In SMS it will make a new line. In explorer it will bring up the context menu. Each time the buttons on the from of the phone will turn on, which they shouldn't be doing.
I can use the buttons on the front to do what ever and the problem wont come up, only with the keyboard.
What could I have screwed up while replacing the screen? The thing I don't get is the correlation with the screen shutting off.
Fixed
I fixed it and I'm posting here in case someone else has the same problem.
The faulty part was the scroll wheel and it's little PCB board. I replaced that and now it works. I also discovered that if that piece is missing, you will have the same problem.

Touch screen problem.

My kaiser's touch screen suddenly has aquired an attitude. Some time it works, some it doesn't. When I touch nothing happens. Also when I slide open the keyboard, it works, but as soon as I close the keyboard, it stops working again. When I reboot, the screen works, but it stops after some time. Then it works if I open the keyboard. I have done hard reset, but that hasn't solved the problem.
Is there any thing I can do to fix it.
Now the touch works only if keyboard is open and doesn't work when closed. Any tips (already did hard reset twice).
With more research, the touch screen works but only when pressed very tightly at the point shown in figure (See red circle). Is there any solution to this ?
Will this get fixed if Change LCD ? Or can it be fixed by tightening some screws ?

It's a hardware problem, your flex cable is worn out.
Dear harveydent,
Keybord is working but not showing in display. after opening keypad screen gets stuck & not rotating, & after closing keypad screen shows exactly what I typed on it.

I didn't say your keyboard or screen was broken. I said the flex cable was.
The hardware problem is the cable that connects your keyboard/main unit and lcd screen together (the flex cable). So your keyboard 100% works. Your screen 100% works. But when you slide open the phone, the flex cable stretches. Since it's worn out, some connections break when it stretches the main board can no longer send signals to the screen, so it appears to freeze. But the keyboard (and everything else) still work, so you can still type, only YOU CAN'T SEE IT since screen can't get any signals from the board. When you slide the phone back, the connection is restored and you can see what you typed.

Soft keys not working :(

Hi guys,,
my motorola milestone's softkeys have stopped working..
back, home, menu and search button,,
i tried to factor reset the phone,, bboth soft and hard but still no luck..
let me tell what happened..
i was watching some movies when it happened..
i was able to send a message before it occrred..
then i placed it on top of my laptop..
after some 15 mins.. i heard some weird noise from it..
it seemed to be possessed.. vibrations is audible.. then i checked the phone... the touched screen is not working at first.. so i turned the mobile off..
then i turned it back on.. the touch screen works fine... responsive as it always..but when i press the soft keys it stopped working
any idea how this happned??
is there any way to fix this???
ideas would be greatly appreciated
Button savior / virtual button bar.
Your digitizer is dieing/dying.
Or maybe another problem. When I replaced mine, the first I got it was like yours, my buttons didn't work so I got around with button savior. The second one i got work flawless.
Good luck.

thanks for the reps dude... really appreciate it..
i think its the digitizer... but i think its kinda weird that the screen works flawlesly.. its just that the softkeys recognize the touch its just the area whose reacting is on the top of the soft keys.. but the entire screen is really responsive..
it's the digitizer
on my milestone it started with the back button not responding and yesterday it died completely. at least the ghost touches are almost gone but now the whole display is not responding. good thing we have a hardware keyboard
Same problem, touching the button area and the digitizer recognized as touching the upper area.
Thanks.
I was suspecting the connector as the digitizer was new, or it supposed to be, but now I know.
