hey guys a quick question for you. I bought an OB for my gf as a gift for christmass. I get dead touches sometimes and it caught my eye sometime ago that some users experienced similar probs. Is it hardware or crappy software on part of lg? and if it is sw can any version fix this? I updated phone to v10g and still same problem. maybe some other version or any custom rom? Other than that phone is pretty decent and the screen compared to my o3d rocks. Any help would be welcome. And merry christmass to all. sry for my bad english
If it's a hardware issue with capacitive panel, no upgrade will fix it.
And about the ROM, we have Cyanogenmod nightlies as the best available option. ( Try installing CM7, if you think your touch button problem is s/w related)
Dead touches? What are those? Care to elaborate? Thanks!
dead touches is a problem of LGmail. if this app not in memory - we have dead touches. start LGmail and quit

If u want to test that it is really not a hardware problem,
try flashing another rom to see if the problem persists or not..
If it persists then its the problem of ur touchscreen so take it to sony service center.They will get it repaired...
flash another rom to make sure,but if it is shown when you are running different apps and even in cwm i guess its hardware problem...

some times there is a screen cut if you are in high frequency.
anyway if its your screens problem there are some cheap in ebay..
If It is a Hardware Problem... Than Just Replace the Touch pad it Should Cost you Around 20$ to 25$(2nd Quality)
I had the Same Problem & Replaced the Touch Pad Now it Works Good For Me..!!
Yeah but i can't buy on Ebay and where i live is much more expensive...its will be the half of the price of a new phone.
But thanks anyway!
Send from My Xperia™X8
yeah...
maybe you can flash with another ROM
always flash the kernel and the other..after that try to wipe data
hope it can help to solve your problem
Have you consulted a service center? And maybe find out if it's a hardware issue (it probably is ) and maybe get an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it?
Worst case scenario: buy a new phone but don't throw away your x8 so you can stay active here. That's what i'd do.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
Do you have the warranty still active? maybe you can fix it for free.
No,i have the phone around 1 year and 5 months,no more warranty.I tryed to change kernel+ROM and nothing.By now i will assume thats a hardware problrm and 'll try to dissasembly and see what i can do... hope its simple!
Well I really hope you will repair it successfully...hope for the best and good luck
sent from my X8 with xda app
Well,no way i could fix it,the problem is inside the display and only a new one would work,sadly i will need to buy a new phone.Thats it.Thanks everybody who tryied to help and goodbye!

try restoring from your ta backup if you did backed up at all.
Thats what happens if you dont read whats gonna be the effect if you unlock your phone,,, this problem exist for ages, and theres still no fix for this issue, so if you didnt back up your T. A.,, you should wait maybe more months until sony fix it

As everyone has replied, you should have READ THE FORUM's before just going in and unlocking your bootloader. Right now if you unlock the bootloader, your camera will be completely useless. And since your posting here and are asking for help, i'm positive you did not back up your T.A partition which includes all the DRM keys for your camera to be fully fictional. Bottom line it if you do not have your T.A partition, there is no way to get your camera functionality back until Sony's fixes this issue and from the looks for it on the Sony forums, i doubt it will be anytime soon. Sorry, your pretty much SOL =(. On the upside, now you know to read the forums before doing anything that will void your warranty =).
i dont have backup ta
Then you have permanently broken your camera
Another lesson in reading before flashing...
The front facing camera still working...
*Sigh*
And no, there is still no way to fix it if there ever will be (My guess is that Sony might fix the unlock process, but I don;t think there will ever be a fix for already broken unlocked phones)

No expert on the issue myself, far from it, but source, documentation, anything. Apparently the device, hardware and software, is pretty heavily protected making it hell to reverse/figure out. Especially without any documentation or code to help.
Camera is programmed into TA and spoiled when unlocking bootloader. Only Sony can program it in another way.

So is a kind of security, if you touch it you will lost the warranty, or something like that. I hope will leak something from Sony a soon as is possible because I don't understand why is so restricted.
Where the solution???
Hi everyone!
I'm from Russia , bought informal unit of Hong Kong ...
because the curve warning on the forum when you unlock the bootloader was lost functionality of the camera ... (((
as a result of treatment in support of Sony in Russia , not in what they do not recognize the fact that in this case the recovery is not possible even a special brand programmer!!!
I 'm not talking about warranty repairs , as I understand it - Sony does not solve the problem even for a money!!!
My question is why such a silence, it's okay to sell unsuitable for repair device software error, for a lot of money ???
I know any device from Samsung, you can bring back to life from any state by the brand programmer, but it NOT Sony XPERIA Z1 ...
black square
Hurray! after the upgrade to version C6903 14.2.A.0.290, rear camera began to work correctly ... :victory:
BUT ... what to do with black square of the front camera??? wait for the next update???
What the F..K??? F...king Sony!
Hello,
I wanted to know if you guys are facing the following problems with your sparkle V or android one devices too?
1) The Wifi is stuck on turning on randomly & is fixed only by a restart of the phone. Is this a problem with my handset or android if you guys face the problem too?
2) (Specifically for sparkle V users) on the camera part there is dust accumulating & to be specific before you say that I can remove the back cover & clean it, the dust is inside which can only be cleaned by opening up the phone fully. Should I get a replacement through the service centre?
Please help as I'm worried that my money doesn't go to waste.
Thanks
Running any custom rom? That might be the problem. I'm currently on stock 5.1(rooted and unlocked bootloader) but I'm not facing the wifi problem and neither is dust accumulating in my camera. It might be a problem with your set, so get it checked at the service center.

No I too am on stock ROM & just rooted it. The bootloader is locked
I think I got a defective product. Have you had any experience with karbonn's service centre? Are there any chances they might replace my phone with a new one?
i am also facing the wifi problem on my sparkle V

I submitted my phone today to the service centre & I was blown away. It just took 2 minutes waiting time (i expected around 30 mins) & the technician was very cordial. Although for the dust problem he said that it might be coming from the earphone jack & is a "common problem". He'll clean it for the dust problem & install the software again to fix the wifi problem "LOL". I'll get my phone by tomorrow (another unexpected thing).
Still I gave the phone & hope the problem is gone.

Go back to stock to stock kitkat and then reflash again, if the problem still persists you may have received a faulty piece. Also try out as many custom roms and see whether they have same issue and making sure its not a hardware problem.

I'll most probably sell it when I receive my phone tomorrow. But still thanks. If it isn't sold in a fair price then I might try the suggestions

Ok so I got my phone & I'm really impressed by Karbonn's service till now, last time my experience with micromax was average as I had to wait for 30-45 mins. just to ask how much would the screen replacement cost.
He cleaned up the dust & flashed kitkat. Till now everything's working fine. Should I upgrade to lollipop as previously when I had WiFi problems I was running the stock lollipop downloaded from the forums.

I think you can download officially on Saturdays from "System updates" . Also, what is the problem with your screen? And yes, lollipop is a little better than the kitkat. Also you can try CM 12.1 as its the best ROM and stable also.
