Hello,
I recently replaced the screen on my LG Optimus L90 for T-mobile, and now when I touch the left side of the screen, it's registered on the right and vice versa. (I made sure the replacement screen was for the same sub-model, but it is a different color) any Ideas on how I might be able to fix this?
Have the same problem. Tried two diffrent sellers and three different digitizers. The option and back buttons also don't work. Have you found a solution or someone who actually sells working ones?

I have had my Milestone for a while and it is out of warranty. Recently a narrow strip on the right side (when held vertically) of the phone has stopped responding to touch. It has decommissioned the search softkey, the backspace, L and the P key of the keyboard.
However, I have noticed that the touch response on the left has increased. For instance Q, A, and Z keys respond even if i touch the black edge of the screen, this goes for the back/return softkey as well.
This leads me to conclude that somehow my phone's inner working's alignment to the screen has been disturbed.
I have tried several roms...CM7, Froyomod and stock froyo but the problem remains.
I did use a third-party car charger once that gave me the ghost screen issue. Draining the batter to 0 with the app Battery Refresh and charging it to the full with Milestone charger solved the issue.
I'm in Bangladesh and there is no moto here...there is no support and sending the phone abroad for a fix is not an option. I'll have to fix it myself or save up for a few months to buy something else...not a bootloader locked moto again.
So, any suggestions? or directions I should be going or looking at?
1. The ghost touch appeared for me, too, after flashing FroyoMOD. I left the phone for ~a night slided-out, without battery, micro SD, SIM etc ) and it worked fine for ~5 days. Then, the same right side stopped working. We don't actually know what is the problem (moisture, bad charging, wear of the flex cable, defective digitizer) and we also can't be sure if we replace the digitizer the problem won't appear again. So, I suggest that you should sell the phone.
2. You could get an i9000, an LG 2x or a Desire HD.
L.E. I'm 95% sure that this isn't a software issue, so flashing different ROMs wont help.
same issue...
solution: dumped stone, got galaxy (Y)
My milestone eventually died. No M logo even. Thinking about getting a Huawei U8500 as an interim phone before I get something good.
Try Iphone insted
Once I got the same problem, it was not on the edge, but the middle of the screen & U, J & N keys stopped working. It was under warranty so I got the things replaced.

Hello,
I know a lot of us are having problems with displays and digitizers and im wondering if anyone else has this problem. Yesterday i replced my screen because it had a dead zone. I booted up the phone and everything worked great until i locked the screen. When i pressed the power button to unlock it there was just a black screen with lots of white lines forming. Without fail the phone will do this. I restart and its fine but when i lock it, it gets screwy. I really need to get this working since i dont even have a backup phone right now. By the way the display is not oem its a knockoff.
Since you change your LCD....it might be a different panel from your original. Check your kernel or flash the kernel again.

Same thing happen to me about a month ago during my G2 screen repair. I bought mine on ebay from a seller that had sold hundreds of them, figured I couldn't go wrong. Unfortunatly I never figuered out why it was failing and just ended up returning it for a refund. The second screen I bought was from etradesupply and it worked perfectly. Hopefully someone has a fix for this weird issue.
I had that exct thing happen to me, well rainbow colored lines. I shattered the screen on a corner drop. I took it to Gopher Mods, they replaced the screen and within a few minutes it happened. They replaced it 2 more times and eventually the last time the screen popped out a little bit since they did not add enough glue/sticky tape inside and the lines dissapeared. They also gave me a full refund, with which I got another G2. So two working phones now lol.
Basically the screen might be pressed in too tightly causing the cable inside to be kinked too much. Its very easy to damage the video cable in this phone mind you.

Try installi mg dorimanx's kernel which detects your panel type of search the thread for a kernel swap flashable. Your new panel may be of a different type causing the white lines.
My phone's screen died. The backlight to be precise. The touch works fine, and even the screen in fact if I look at it under bright light, shows information. I want to replace it. I went and bought a replacement. Opened up the unibody, unplugged the batter flex and the one below it.
My question is:
Can I just unplug my current screen's flex (display flex, top left corner) and plug in the replacement's flex, and check? Because when I do it, nothing happens. The screen doesn't come on, neither do the capacitive keys (they light up on the current display if connected). The touch works fine though and so do the keys (I can invoke Cortana etc using the search key for example)
I am wondering if the only thing that connects the display unit (touch plus LCD) to the main board is that single flex, or are there other contacts that are used when the phone is completely put together. Because the screens I've tested (several) didn't light up at all, just the touch worked.
This would really help because I could then buy a screen and finally get down to the complete required disassembly (which isn't that simple or easy) and rest assured before doing so that my replacement screen works.
A possible reason that the vendors I went to buy the LCD's from gave me was that this might be a version conflict. Though I feel the hardware for these phones is the same. And the only version conflict I have come across would result in the touch refusing to function. The screen would always work (eg Lumia 620 after Lumia Black update) My phone was bought from Saudi Arabia (EMEA) and I am currently and indefinitely in India where I'm trying to get a replacement LCD that works. This shouldn't be a factor though because my Lumia is the RM-937 (international variant) which is the same one you get here.
Any expert help on this would be really really helpful.
PS: I know I could post this in the Lumia 1520 forum, but I'm posting it here in hopes of getting a quick reply as I am sadly pressed for time with my only phone I use for everything including work, not having a working screen. Cortana is really my assistant as she is the only way I use my phone at the moment.
I'm trying to fix a z3c on which the top ~80 rows of the screen does not register a touch. The screen was cracked so I've tried to connect some new screens.
If I put on one of the el cheapo, unoriginal, knockoff z3c screen replacement I can make touch register on the whole screen.
If I put on a new, uncracked, non broken, original (or very good copy) screen It exhibits the same problem as the original screen I took of, the top ~80 rows does not register.
On all the screens a Synaptics S3528A controller seems to be attached, but who knows if that's to be trusted. I'd like to make the original type screen work since they have better colors, among other things. It is possible that the new original screen is broken exactly in the same way as the one that came on the phone.
Has anyone else experienced some part of the display starting to not register a touch? Is there a way to recalibrate this on a z3c?
Besides broken screens, what could cause the phone to treat the screens differently?
Hello xda, i just bought this LG G Flex D955 which the touch screen is partial working, the lower touch screen (back/mannage apps , tabs) and a part from the middle of the screen, and has some tiny black spots on the edge of the screen which i had on other phones but touch screen worked perfectly. The glass is not cracked/scratched in any way, it doesn't seem that it was dropped (too bad) cause the edges looks good... the phone looks 9.5/10, the guy that sold it to me told me that the problem came "when he updated the android", maybe it's true, any sollutions? it has android 4.4.2, and i used it for 2 days, works like a charm...tried to bend it, push on the screen and the edges....no help/.
I bought it as broken, really wanna fix it without buying a new display any help? at least a website where i can buy a digitizer+glass without display :?
Same Here, any solution till now? Yesterday V10 bootlooped now back on 4.4.2)
