Hi. My english is bad, but i will try ask the question. Nexus 7 2013 LTE, i broked one of two double touch connectors on ME571KL_SB board, in result i have two touch dead zones(screen in attachment). I bought the new board, all seems to be ok, tablet is loaded OS, but... touchscreen is no response. I noticed that the serial numbers on the old and new boards do not match, maybe that's the problem. Question: Whether i can do something, flash or update software to work properly with the new touchscreen board?

Fix broken digitizer on allwinner a20 tablet.

hello,
i damaged my tablets digitizer, found a suitable in aliexpress. replaced the old one by the one i got from china.
was happy because the tablet is a no name, no brand.
unfortunately the digitizer does not work correctly. it seems to swap x and y coordinates. tried to fix this with canging script.bin file in nanda partition.
ctp section has some parameters which i changed using my linux desktop computer, using bin2fex and fex2bin tools.
putting the file back to nanda partition, it seems to ignore my modifications. no reaction, still the same, x and y coordinates swapped.
do not find any help in dmesg output. using android 4.2.2.
hope someone could help.
best regards, harald.

I have the same problem (IMEI 0) with my Nexus 5X, now I have 4GB of RAM but I can't use it because the mobile network doesn't connect.
Did you find a solution?

decryption of encryptet emmc from broken nexus 5x possible?

Hello everyone,
i have the following problem:
After my Nexus 5x got water damaged during my vacation i tried different things to repair the phone. This was not successfull. After that i bought a used Nexus 5x with a broken screen and builded one running phone out of the 2. So the issue of not having a phone was solved
But my problem is that i wanted to recover the pictures and videos from the broken nexus phone. I removed the emmc chip and put this chip in a bga 153 reader. The chip gets recognized by multiple programs and i can see the different partitions. From the information that i have this data is encryptet by default.
Like i have read here hxxps://blog.elcomsoft.com/2017/05/android-encryption-demystified/ there is no solution to decrypt the files with a chip-off.
Can someone give me an answer if there is a possibility to recover the files?
The 4 digit pin is known to me. I dont know if this is useful.
Thanks in advance.

Motherboard change with upgrade to LTE

Hello everyone,
the motherboard of my S4 mini duos (i9192) failed, probably the EMMC, and I need to replace it. Since where I live the 4G/LTE signal is so much better than the 3G and I don't need the dual SIM anymore, I was thinking to buy the i9195 motherboard and substitute it for the original one.
When looking at the components of my phone, I saw two other parts which seem to be related to the 3G version (i9190/2, as written on top of them): the USB connector board and the antenna on the top part of the back housing (the one with "3G" stamped on it), see the figures here.
So I suppose that I should be fine by replacing all three pieces with the i9195 version, also given that they seem to be the only 4G-related pieces in the phone, as per this thread and the video linked therein.
Has anyone tried this? Or, do you have any comment/advice?
Thanks in advance!

it is a gamble I think, it has been reported that even swapping the connector brd for a new one sometimes didn't work with older motherboard, though swapping all 3 it might work for you, but no guarantee. Also then you might have problem loading software & need jtag
But is there much of a price difference to buying a new phone?
Ok, I bought an i9195 used mainboard together with the USB connector board for 30 €, mounted them and flashed the latest Resurrection Remix. The phone is working pretty well (a really big upgrade from my S3 mini) even without changing the middle frame. Actually, what is missing on the middle frame is the 4G antenna, so the 4G is not working at the moment, but for the rest no problems whatsoever.
I'll try to buy the middle frame in the future and report if the 4G starts working, or if the circuitry got fried for the lack of the antenna.
@IronRoo thanks for the suggestion, the main point going for a new phone is the price of one with screen size less than 5" (this is 4.7" and is perfect, bigger ones are uncomfortable to hold for me): the cheapest one is Samsung A3 which is 200 € at the moment. Also, I'm also kinda annoyed by throwing away a phone that could be fixed and given new life.
Strange... My 9192 also fail EMMC some months ago and I also replaced it to 9195 from a local shop. It just 2 case of failing EMMC is seems like a design flaw? Maybe?
Anyways my phone is fine except for battery life I don't get even 1 full hour in performance mood also on RR ROM android 7, and it's my secondary device so I don't use 4G on this device can't report back how good probably I won't even get bit of charge xD
