After replacing the digitizer on a droid 3, the keyboard sensor thinks it's open all the time. Is there a way to recalibrate this or is it a physical sensor that needs to be replaced. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

In addition, because the sensor is stuck open, the onscreen keyboard will not display.

HELP!!! I have searched all 4 forums and couldn't find any similar cases/solutions!
The touchscreen is DEAD after I slide out the keyboard,
but works again if i fully slide in the keyboard!
What is happening? the touch screen seems to be "Disabled" even if you only slide out the keyboard by a little bit.
Is this due to a physical damage of the cabling/touchscreen???
What should I do??
Hi
I opened up the s730 all the way down to the keyboard to be able to put some glue on the broken keyboard frame.
Adfter the phone was assembled back again, the screen does not rotate when the keyboad is slided in and out.
Anybody who knows were the sensor is located?
I have the same problem, but it happened when I changed the housing.
Everything seem into place, but the d"#$%$ keyboard does not work.
Regards,
OB
I also posted about this exact issue, doesn't anyone know where the sensor is?
not all time is about a spoiled sensor because the sensor can be conected with mainboard throught the flex cable if it is broken will not work specialy when its a chase replacement , the flex cable can be damaged very easly
Touch screen pretty much sucks, so I go to the physical keyboard. Are there any solutions for this?
Don't think you can actually calibrate the touch screen...
if you use the HTC_IME then there is touch screen calibration but its limited to calibrating the VK, and not the whole touchscreen itself.
This is not an old fashioned resistive touchscreen... this is capacitive. Calibration is fixed by the digitizer matrix which is aligned physically with the LCD and can never shift (and thus needs no calibration).
If you are having sensitivity problems, keep in mind that this is a capacitive screen -- it doesn't work well sitting on a desk and being poked at, it needs to read the conductivity of your hand, which means that the device needs to share a common ground WITH YOU, which means that you need to hold it in your palm.
As weird as it sounds, touch screen does not work but the S Pen does. I know the obvious reaction would be that the digitizer is bad BUT, I took the motherboard out of my other Note 3 and placed in this phone and the digitizer functions just as it should. It is as if there is something wrong with the motherboard but I'd like to see if it is fixable or if anyone else has had this issue. Any suggestions on how to correct this without getting a new motherboard? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

That happened to me twice. Once a week after opening it, and a factory restore fixed it. It happened again about 6 months later, and I had to send it back.
It could be anything from a bad chip on the motherboard flaking out once in a while to a bad connection on one of the pins on the screen cable. A dirty pin is fixable most of the time, a bad chip isn't.
(The S-Pen has nothing to do with the digitizer - it doesn't press on the digitizer, it interacts with a magnetic field the phone produces yjat runs about half an inch above the screen [see how high you can lift the pen before you lose the "pen cursor"]. The pen will work even if the digitizer is shot. On the other side, if the magnetic field or associated circuitry is bad, the pen won't work even though the digitizer does.)
Is there a way to calibrate the touch screens on this thing? My wife is constantly frustrated by her keyboard, and I think part of that is the fact that the bottom row or two just doesn't seem to be very accurate/responsive to touches.
recalibrate
Hi,
do you find a solution for recalibration?
Thanks in Advance.
