Changing model of touchscreen (Android)

Hello, (almost) first time posting here, and I'll try to keep it short.

I have an Android device:

• mt6589t


• kernel 3.4.5


• FT5316DME touch screen.

The problem is in the TS - it broke in half. There are no analogs for it (I've searched google, aliexpress, taobao and literally anything, I could think of) and the original comes only with display, making it on par with price of used phone.

The question is:
Is it possible to use TouchScreen from another device, if it has same touch chip? (disregarding dimensions)
Tried connecting one, but android didn't seem to register touches - no info from "Pointer Location" bar (the one from development options).
Are there, may be, other methods of determining, whether android gets any info from TS? Is there any point in trying to import touchscreen *.ko-modules from the TS donor?

Any way to use Ambient display without turning on touchscreen?

As stated above. I have had it turned off since the first week. I keep the phone in my pocket and it will keep waking up, unlocking, and doing things including dialing people.

Maybe I have someone living in my pocket. ;)

Any mod out there? Would like to use the feature again. In the mean time I have been using the led mod.

G3 or G4? -because of possible touchscreen issues?

I have a G3 right now. I scored a BRAND NEW G4 off ebay and it's on it's way. I can live without unlocked bootloader, for now.. but I'm terrified about the possible screen issues. Should I just keep my G3, which is working great, and just turn right around and sell the G4? What do you guys think? Is it worth the risk?

Right now my G3 is the ATT D810 version and the G4 I bought is the ATT H810. I ordered a tempered glass screen protector, case, QC 2.0 chargers.... not sure what to do.

Keyboard / Touchscreen (?) Double Tap Problem - please help!!

I've been experiencing a weird issue with every keyboard app I've tried, and I would appreciate some help.

This problem started occurring only after the most recent updates. About 90% of the time that I hit the space bar on the keyboard, it registers as a double tap inserting two spaces. The phone vibrates 2x in rapid succession to indicate that two touches are being registered.

This also happens when I hold the space bar down, except the two phone vibrations are a little further apart when I hold the space bar down. This prevents me from being able to long tap the space bar (switch between language input). No other keys / apps appear to behave this way. I've tried the dialer touchscreen FW update trick as well with no success.

It's been a pain to type anything on my phone and any help would be awesome.

New OnePlus One touchscreen issues!

Hi, I just purchased a brand new (sealed) OnePlus one from ebay which was RMA'd by the previous user due to some bootloader issue. The phone is great but I am having some touch screen issues when typing as it sometimes doesn't recognise my touches. I installed the 'ghost touch display tester' app and 'Yet another multitouch test app' and both prove that there is something wrong with the touch screen. I still have a chance to return the device back to the seller as I only received it yesterday but I wanted to know if there are any other fixes available that I could try as I really like the device. I am running the latest cm12.1 stock rom. I searched online and there is an option to install a custom kernel but I would rather not as I have previously bricked a phone in doing so.

Do you think Nexus 6 would be a better option as its only £40 more to buy at the moment.

Thank you in advance for your help.

How to make my touchscreen better on Tab Pro 12.2

After bricking my tablet twice , today i was finally able to root it . Unlike other people , the reason why I rooted it was to "decrease the minimum duration of touch to almost 0 " , by that i mean , make the touchscreen as responsive as the one on a phone . I am used to tapping the the touchscreen really really fast , barely even touching it which works on my phone , but it doesnt work on my Tab Pro 12.2 inch most of the times . The default minimum duration of touch is low i guess but def not low enough . I want my taps to be registered no matter how fast I tap the screen or the intensity at which I tapped it . Yes this is my first time rooting an android device so I am not very familiar with it. I am not a tech noob though , I already learnt a lot of things about rooting .

This is the article that motivated me to root my tablet :
I need to have 10 posts to post links it seems

So I did what it was in that article , I modified my build.prop and added this code :

# Touch screen calibration and scroll responsiveness
debug.performance.tuning=1
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=200
view.touch_slop=2
view.scroll_friction=1.5
view.minimum_fling_velocity=25
ro.max.fling_velocity=12000
ro.min.fling_velocity=8000
ro.min_pointer_dur=8
touch.size.calibration=geometric
touch.size.scale=100

#touch.size.bias=70
touch.pressure.calibration=amplitude
touch.pressure.scale=0.3

Then I rebooted and again , no change . My screens accuracy and everything else is perfect , the only thing that is not perfect is the thing I already mentioned , so I anyone knows how to make my screen so sensitive that it reacts even if a hair touches it or even if i barely touch with my finder with the speed of light , it registers the touch . If possible of course .

sony no response on touchscreen

battery charging post broke jumped battery now no response on touch screen.

Touchscreen problems

Hey guys need some help
The edges of my phone are unresponsive to touch on the edges. Could this be hardware or software

Touchscreen not calibrated

I was on the latest Hyperdrive ROM (kitkat) and decided to try out stock Lollipop. So I installed it via ODIN, and then I installed TWRP. Except I installed the Note 4 EDGE TWRP, so now the screen is about half an inch offset in most places. I tried installing the correct TWRP but it made no difference. Same with CWM recovery. This offset happens in both recovery and in Android. I have also tried flashing to stock 4.4.4 kitkat with ODIN. And finally I have restored back to my NANDROID backup of the Hyperdrive ROM, but the problem still persists. I have also tried some display calibration apps but they did nothing.

It appears as if flashing TWRP for Note Edge Tmo has changed a hardware level setting in regards to the screen. However, using the S-Pen is fine (still perfectly accurate).

What should I do? It's annoying having to use the S-Pen for basic things all the time...
I was thinking maybe flashing a PIT file in ODIN would help but I couldn't find one online.
