[Q] Xperia T compass sensor problems - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hi! I recently bought a Xperia T and got into a problem, the magnetic sensor. I downloaded a compass app and tried it and than kboom.. Restart.. Every time I try I get the same result, Android is restarting. Could it be a software problem or hardware one? It didn't work since I bought it so I thought rooting might help so I rooted it by installing a custom kernel after unlocking the bootloader.. Everything went well.. No problems during unlocking the bootloader or flashing the new kernel.. The device works perfectly until I try something that needs my compass.. Than the system crashes or idk but I would like to fix it..
Anybody here got any solution?
I followed this guide but had no luck.

[Q] LG Optimus 2X touchscreen not responding

Hey Guys,
I was installing a weather widget for my O2X and he could'nt find my location.
So i tought I'll reboot my O2.
When i rebooted my phone, the touchscreen wasn't working anymore.
But before I reboot my phone it did.
So now when I turn on my device it boots, and I can see everthing : Statusbar, Lockscreen etc.
But when I try to unlock it it's not responding to my touch.
So i did a full wipe and installed the ROM again but, it wasnt working again.
So then I downloaded CM10.1 for my phone and flashed it but still not working.
Anyone got and idea?
Greetings, Hammief
Exactly what happened to me
Same thing has happened to me
I have the Wind Optimus 2x. So it will be different then what other have experienced.
Basicly I had the latest CM7 installed and I wanted to upgrade to ICS so I used the tool to repartition the device. I got ICS installed fine but the screen doesn't work anymore. I flashed back to stock with nvflash perfect and but screen doesn't work at all.
If anyone can look into these touchscreen problems or has any experience it would be appreciated.
it seems that is not problem in hardware, the problem is in software...
please try to do full wipe in recovery than try, maybe is virus, or something else

[SOLVED] My Xperia t touchscreen suddenly doesn't work anymore

Yesterday I went to a party, nothing wrong with the xperia t. When I got home I let it recharge. I think it still worked at that moment. Pretty sure it did. Went to sleep. Woke up. My phone battery was empty lol. Still in the recharger. Did some stuff, let it recharge some more. Got it to boot up again. Now touch screen doesn't work anymore . Tried wiping cache, factory reset. Still not working.
I have cm-10.1.3-RC2-mint installed. I think I might have to update it. This could be the problem.
Any more tips for if it doesn't work? never had this problem before. I hope it is a software thingy.
I updated the firmware but still doesn't work. I think im gonna re-install the stock firmware, and flash a stock kernel which will unroot my mobile. Any tips? please? I can't use my phone at all atm. It just stays at the cyanogenmod install screen..

I would like to try that thing with adb, but as I have already reinstalled cyanogenmod, developer options/debugging is turned off. I can't use ADB. Unless you know another way.
So this is totally getting out of hand.. (and I don't know if that is also a english expression lol).
I tried reflashing a stock firmware. Worked, but touchscreen still doesn't work. Then I noticed, that I now don't have cwm anymore... how the f?
SO I probably forgot to exclude the kernel. So now I tried reflashing a kernel with cwm, but flashtool doesn't recognize the kernel files... I don't know what is going on..
Ah already found the problem. Got cwm back phewww..
So here is what needs to be done. I want to try gregbradleys adb shell fix but my usb debugging is off and this means that I can't use adb, as I don't have touchscreen.
So, is there any way, any way at all, to enable usb debugging without touching the screen? Maybe a kernel with that settings automaticly set?
Im getting a bit angry at my phone now.. I didn't even do anything to break it in the first place. Just tried recharging it, and that killed the touchscreen? lol. Help will be appreciated. Im out of ideas.
Get a usbotg cable and attach a usb mouse
Then use that to turn debugging on
When you flash a stock firmware you lose recovery.

thanks, I'll get one tomorrow. I hope it will help. You've helped me before so im pretty confident that you fix my problem again haha. You are a boss.
A non responsive touch screen happened to me too after I flashed a wrong firmware. I flashed back the version that was on before, but it didn't help. Only after I flashed this (pretty old) version Xperia T - 7.0.A.1.303 Generic DE with Flashtool, the touch screen started to working again. I am not sure, maybe any ftf would work. But I know that I had success with this one.
You should try gregbradleys method first though. Funny, that your touch screen stopped working, without you modifying anything. Hopefully it's not a hardware problem.

hmmm, I tried this and it worked. problem solved. I did however not have wrong firmware installed, but it was an rc2 version of cm. So it can be unstable and stuff, but this was kind of a big problem.

Hey, glad your phone is ok again. I remember when that happened to me. I just had the phone for a couple weeks. Shat my pants, thinking I wrecked it. It worked out at the end, though. Feels good to recover a bricked phone, doesn't it.
Sorry to bump

I am having this exact problem! I'm sorry to awake this sleeping thread, but I have a locked bootloader and I tried a Sony PC Companion reset and it still has the problem. Is there anything else I can do?

Try using an OTG cable with a corded mouse attached, then reset rom either from OS or from bootloader
Yes, try resetting the ROM and/or update to newer 4.3/4.4

[Q] Z1 Display issue (Not touch screen common issue)

Hi all,
I recently purchased a second hand z1 c6903 (telstra branded), and decided I would start off by loading the iHackers custom rom on. (based off instruction in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439328 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2716182). Now I didn't use it a whole heap before doing this but I didn't notice any issues with the display before starting.
After the first step of downgrading to the Firmware 14.1.G.1.534 the display started going nuts. I suspected something may have gone wrong and started from scratch on another computer and re-flashed the firmware. Problem persisted but everything other than the display seemed to work so I continued rooting the phone, backing up the TA, unlocking the bootload and installing the rom. It all seemed to go fine.
Its hard to describe the issue with the display, its flickering and distorted (tried to make a vid sorry about the quality though https://youtu.be/nyD1o28ipdY)
If you can see in the video it does not do it really in some apps like the calendar and clock, others it does at first then stabilises, doesn't seem to do it at all in the drag down notification menu. Even though its difficult to see the icons, if you know where they are, they seem to respond fine like nothings wrong.
I searched everywhere but couldn't find anyone with a similar issue (May be out there but because the z1 has had such widespread issues with the touch screen thats all I could seem to find).
Was hoping someone with more experience or that has dealt with a similar issue could help in diagnosing the problem or provide a solution?
Thanks in advance
Dean
Wow o.o weird.
Did you flash the latest firmware version before flashing iHackers ROM?
U should try to flash another Kernel. There are many based on stock rom, like FXtrinity and X Honami. try them
Thanks guys.
I didn't flash to the latest, probably should have tried before continuing. Is that something worth trying now (I have never had any issues like this with roms etc I don't know where to start?) I also had flashed to the Kernel.ftf for C6903 (.133) as in the instructions.
I just tried the X-Honami v6 kernal. Still the same.
Anybody have any ideas?
Update:
I bricked it trying to revert back the the telstra branded firmware. Red flashing light. It did vibrate at one stage after pressing the power button but nothing since. Have just been charging it until I get a chance to try and fix it. Doesn't really detect it at all when connected via usb but the usb connection sound keeps going off.

Little problem after bootload unlock

Hey guys, i need a help with something that happened in my Z1 after i unlocked the bootloader.
Well, i did the unlock to install some ROMs, i installed all pretty good withouth any problems but something was wrong...
I installed whatsapp, and trying to access the whatsapp web i saw that my phone won't read the qrcode, the camera keeps focusing in a loop and the code changes...
I tried in another computer and the same thing happened, i tried also another phone in my PC and worked, well...
Looking for help through the internet i didn't found anything that works, so my last hope is here in XDA.
Someone can help?
