General :: MTK6589 GT-I9500 Touch Screen Works Up Whenever Lower Part Is Touched
Apr 4, 2014
I was able to flash ROM from : LNK1 but I have a problem with touchscreen which works upside down. When I press screen on top it actually shows that I pressed at bottom of screen. I was looking for solution many days and have learned a lot from many sites and different forum threads, but surprisingly non of the solution works for me. I am not able to reach proper file to change proper property to change this behavior. Most probably i need to set somewhere: ctp_revert_y_flag = 1 as described here: LNK2, but I am not able to find nor edit script.bin on my phone, here I found some info: LNK3 and also here is very interesting info about partitions: LNK4 but I can't find this script.bin on my phone.
My phone is china phone 1:1 Real MTL 6589 GT-I9500, I was able to flash several ROM's using SP Flash tool from LNK5, I know how to do this, but no matter which ROM I flash no matter which recovery image I flash this touch screen behavior is still upside down as described.
1. set ctp_revert_y_flag = 1 in script.bin on my phone - I can't mount proper partition, don't know which partition should I mount, can't find this file
2. set ctp_revert_y_flag = 1 in script.bin on ROM file before flashing - don't know where to look for this file and don't know how to edit ROM before flashing.
What I know: how to root my phone, how to get to it using adb, how to use android-sdk, how to flash using SP flash tools, how to use recovery mode, clean user data, how to use SP Flash tool, how to switch on developer mode, switch on USB debugging, switch on "show touches".

How to activate a HTC Magic (Sapphire).
I have the unlock code and a Vodafone SIM card with internet activated. I put the sim card in phone, tun it on but it doesn't ask me for unlock code ! (maybe it's allready unlocked because on the screen appears Vodafone).
When I want to activate the APN settings should appears in the lower part of the screen but it is not. I tried other method of activation - from G1: to press menu buttton after second google user and pass input entered - for apn field appears. No succes this time too.
Any idee how to activate ?

This may be an Android 4.4 or Nexus 4 problem, but I suspect the former. I encrypted the device (using the in-built encryption stuff) and have found that now the touchscreen will only register if another part of it is touched. For example, when entering my PIN once I get into the OS itself, I have to hold down a finger somewhere else on the screen (usually having to move it between some of the later numbers).
When it comes to multi-touch features (zooming etc.), these work fine but still require another finger held down somewhere to work.
This is definitely a software problem as the touchscreen works fine when putting in the password to decrypt storage.
Is this supposed to happen - part of the encryption process - or is this a bug?

Just recently, the top part of the screen where I would normally swipe to slide out the notification tray turned unresponsive. I downloaded the screen test tookit and tested the touch screen, and it confirmed the top part of the screen is not registering any touches. Is there anyway to fix this? Or am I stuck with this unless I bring it back to Sprint?

I bought a new droid for $20 haha lucky i think until i notice that the touch screen only works for the middle of the screen to the left so if yu cut the screen into thirds only the middle and left work assuming that yu cut it from top to bottom with the lights at the bottom for the home button etc. I opened it up cleaned all the flex cable with alcohol and waited for it to dry and it still does the same thing so my question is = do i need a new digitizer or is it a software problem or something that i dont even know?

I own a galaxy nexus and the performance of a few HD games are under my expectations, even with a bus overclocked kernel! (i've tried many, to no use )
Is there is a way to force selected apps to run at a lower screen resolution? say 540x960? i don't mind if it doesn't run in full screen, i just prefer a constant 60FPS over a few extra details!

Is there any way to display a certain part of a webpage in a widget on home screen with a manual (or auto) refresh button to sync it with the website?
For example, I have the following website and want to only show the table I circled in red on my home screen.

I am experiencing a problem with my app. The 1st screen that appears is a map that displays pins that are located based on an XML file that is loaded from our server.
Sometimes the app loads as expected. Other times, the map loads but none of the pins appear until you touch the screen.

Ever since I bought my hero in December, I have had this problem where if I'm in a game, and it requires the screen to be touched, the game stutters. This happened when I had the stock 1.5. I needed to trade my hero for another when a lot of dust showed up under the screen, so Sprint gave me another one, only this one worked perfectly. No stuttering at all. So I decide to root it, and now it's running Aloysius, and the stuttering is back. Does anyone know what could be causing this? It happens in both the official and unofficial firmware. I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. Games it does this in includes: Nesoid and snesoid, and Raging Thunder to name a few. These games worked perfectly to my shock when I got the new phone, as I originally thought it was just a hero problem. I even emailed the developer of Nesoid but he didn't know the cause. Any suggestions?

On Aug 10, 2010 I purchased an unlocked HTC Legend (A6365 - HSPA 850/1900/2100 Mhz). The phone operated wonderfully until Sep 8, 2010. At that time, the Notification bar couldn't be "pulled-down" anymore. Additionally, without rhyme or reason, when I touch the screen, the notification panel will open randomly. This renders the phone useless since every time I touch the screen, the notification panels opens. I tried a softboot and a factory reset. Neither action resolved the issue. I contacted HTC USA support and they suggested clearing the calendar data and vigorously rubbing my hands together and then touch the screen whenever the issue occurred. No success. This issue occurs whether the SIM card is installed or not. I can safely say that no new applications were installed within 48 hours of the issue starting.
I search the available forums and found at least three other instances of this same issue:
http://www.htclegendforum.com/htc-legend-troubleshooting/touchscreen-bug/
http://www.htcforums.com/legend/5838-touchscreen-bug.html
http://androidforums.com/htc-legend/153561-notification-area-swipedown-not-working.html
Regrettably, none of these threads have any answers. HTC support then recommended for me to contact HTC Return Merchandise Authorization & Repair Center. This group (in the USA) cannot accept the phone for troubleshooting because this phone is not available in the USA. Based on the behavior thus far, I suspect this is an issue with the firmware becoming unstable. The phone hasn't been exposed to any drastic environmental changes (heat, cold, excessive dust, etc).
Software info follows:
Firmware version: 2.1-update 1
Baseband version: 47.37.35.09U_7.09.35.05
Kernel version: 2.6.29-9e497c43
Build number: 2.02.666.3 CL1777708 release-keys
Software number: 2.02.666.3
Browser version: WebKit 3.1
By know, HTC should have received multiple complains of this issue and I hope they have a solution for it. The options of the phone are great, reception is wonderful and performance is superb (except for this issue).

How do I use gl.gluUnproject in my OpenGL ES 1.1 android app to determine what is selected when the user touches the screen?
My understanding is that the touch event results in a line and I have to find the first "thing" it intersects with.
Are there any tutorials on how to do this?

I was a former WM user and my touch keyboard of choice was Touch Pad. It has better prediction than the HTC keyboard, is bigger, and has extra swiping shortcuts to make typing a breeze. Watch a video on youtube to see all of the shortcuts. You easily switch from qwerty, compact qwerty (my favorite), and numeric pad layout by swiping from left to right. Do a search in the market for touchpal and it will bring up the Chinese version. Download it, go into settings > keyboard and languages and select (select checkbox) Chinese touchpal. The next time you have a box to type in long hold and select change input method and select Chinese touchpal. When you open the keyboard you have to hit the little sprocket wheel in the bottom left corner to change the language to English.

Ok So I've gone through several tutorials on the web. I understand how the pointerCount works , I can get two points, etc, etc. My problem is I am trying to implement a game control, i.e. dpad and some buttons. The "buttons" are actually TextView objects with images. I Implement OnTouchListener Interface. my onTouch Method gets called when it should. The problem is if I have finger #1 on button a then press finger #2 on button b my OnTouch() method is called with the view of button a, not button b. Fine then I will just get the bounds of the buttons and see if they intersect with the points clicked. No luck, It seems as though the points that come in the MotionEvent are not relative to 0,0 , but to some other coordinate system. I would have thought all points were relative to upper left of screen.
Here is my code.
CODE:.................

Just a quick question about the Captivate. I just got myself an HTC Aria and I love how easy it is to use the touch screen on it. Its extremely responsive. Now my sister has the SamSung Instinct on Sprint and the touch screen is horrible compared to HTCs touch on the Aria. Im thinking about taking the HTC back to AT&T and getting the Samsung Captivate. I am just worried about the touch screen on it and if it will be like the Instincts? If the touch is as good as HTCs Ill get it. If its not, then Ill stick with the Aria because despite its size, its an extremely fun and responsive phone. Any thoughts?

On my HTC Hero, when typing messages, I could always easily access characters like "?" and "!" and numerals by simply "long touching" that button. Very convenient. However, recently, that featured stopped working. I can no longer "long touch" the K-key and get a question mark like I used to.
Is this a setting that has been inadvertently turned off? If so, I can't find it.

To start: I searched the forums for this problem but didn't see anything similar. If this is a repost, sorry, please give me a link to a solution.The problem seems to go away when I shut off the screen and then turn it back on again. However, I sometimes have to do this three times in order to type a single sentence text. I did a hard reset earlier today and it was fine for a few hours. It seemed to come back after I installed some of the apps I had before it was reset. I've read that there was an issue with the earlier Evos about the screen not being grounded, but this seems more of a software issue to me. Anyone know what I can do?

So through a weird assortment of events i managed to crack the screen on my Eris. But this is the trippy part, I didnt break the glass but the touch sensors underneath. So now i am unable to use the menu or home buttons and the entire left part of my screen and more. I am unable to unlock my device in anyway that i know(menu button, the slider). Is there any other way to unlock it? I now have 11 unread texts and 4 voicemails that I desperately want to view. Oh and I know some of you won't be happy about what I'm about to say but.... I took the leap to the moto droid. I had the chance to get it on a 1 year because I didnt get insurance and I went for it. I will really miss my Eris but the keyboard lag was just killing me.

I recently purchased "KVD APOLLO ONE K6589 Quad-Core Android 4.2.1 WCDMA Smartphone w/ 5.5"
The phone itself was next to nothing ($180) so even if its Unrootable.
I would however prefer it rooted, I have read that you can basically use the MTK6577 rooting tool on the device?Would this risk bricking the device.
I'v attempted to contact the manufacturer however to no avail.

I bought recently a Tengda T94 (also being referred to as Dapeng T94).It has MTK6589 chip.
Me,the smartass,wanted to change the DPI setting of the smartphone,because Real Racing 3 lagged a little bit and thought changing it might fix the framerate.I changed it from 320 dpi to 221 with LCD modder and reboot.Then the surprise struck me,when it didnt start,it just stood on the logo and kept replaying it.I have tried with ADB commands - some works,some not.
I am with stock recovery 3e.
Has only few commands like reboot now,install update from adb,cache,sd card and wiping cache and another option for wiping data to factory settings (and two irrelevant options of restoring/backing up user data).
I tried wiping all data and cache,still bootlooping.
Tried with mediatek firmware adapter tool,but i think it cannot change the build.prop file while bootlooping (it cannot find my device when in recovery mode),because it is either in use,or in read-only mode.
Tried with android commander,but didnt know what to do there.
I downloaded rather late a CWM recovery for my phone,and also if I am not mistaken two roms - one of them is exactly like mine.
But when tried to install thru recovery adb sideload it starts and then says : restating ADBD ....... installation aborted and returns me to main recovery menu. Tried with my backed up build.prop which i have put in flashable zip file.
However,the two roms i have downloaded arent working properly.They are zip,but still adb sideload cannot read them.
And another (i dont know if it is relevant) my external sd card 16 gb default,when i put it in my old gsm to put the two roms and cwm recovery files,first windows wanted to format it and the only option was FAT 32,total of 2.87GB.What has happened to my sd card ?
Still I couldnt install from the external sd card the roms,only zip with build.prop file was listed and gave the same mistake as said above : restating ADBD ....... installation aborted.
PP: I have arrived at the conclusion that the problem is this line ro.sf.lcd_density=221,which is in build.prop file (I might be wrong).So the question is can i somehow modify the prop file or what should i do ? And why has my sd card shortened from 14,6gb to 2.87 ?

I am using a couple of ListView elements in my app. In all cases, it doesn't highlight the selected item when I click/touch it, but I can use the trackball to scroll up and down, and can see the orange highlighted color then. How do I fix this? one of them is a LinearLayout with two TextViews in it.

I bought a chinese MTK6589 phone called the Tronsmart TS7 Glacier. I tried to flash CWM recovery with an app called Flashify. I was using the right CWM recovery for my phone, but when it rebooted it opened the normal recovery mode, and then when I tried to reboot, it didn't get past the first logo that comes up... Normally it shows an android logo, then it goes to a little animation with the tronsmart logo, then it's started up. Now it's stuck on the android logo... I've tried reflashing the stock rom from my SD card but I can't do it because it only works in CWM, the installation aborts normally. I've done it before but I got into CWM through a different app called mobileuncle or something. So yeah what I think I need to do is reflash the stock rom, but I can't do it without CWM, and I can't get CWM...

Just got back from my hols where I used my (stock) N1 camera a lot. Got some great pics but a few certainly highlighted just how important touch-to-focus is to me. Was quickly reading a review of the Desire and read it has touch-to-focus. Was just wondering if anyone who is actually running the modaco desire ROM on their N1 can confirm whether this works? I'd also be interested to know if I could just use the desire camera app on a rooted N1 with Cynanogen? I'm rather partial to the stock appearance and not massively inclined towards Sense UI.
