Re: Lenovo Twist Touch Screen Issue

Mine starts working after 3, 5, 10 or 15 minutes. I cannot pinpoint exactly what makes it start or stop, it is very random. I hope Lenovo will fix it soon, it is a great machine otherwise.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

All,
We have a firmware update for the touchscreen that is in process of being released through our support site.  Since there could be multiple causes as discussed in the other thread, I can't promise this will be the solution for you.
However, I've attaching the file to this forum post.  Download it and rename it from .abc to .exe.  I renamed it .abc to get around some limitations with attaching executables.  To install, be sure AC is attached and double click the file after you have renamed it.
Let me know if this helps.

  • White spots on the Twist touch screen issue (pressure point)

    Hi,
    I purchased the Lenovo Twist two month ago.
    Recently, I found three white spots (known as pressure points) on my screen,
    so I sent it to the depot for warrant service.
    The service center said the white spots were caused by a physical damage such as a strong pressure,
    so it could not be covered by warranty and I should pay about $700 to fix it.
    I am very careful with my laptop and do not believe the white spots were due to strong pressure.
    If they were caused by a regular touching on the screen (since Twist is touch-available screen), it must be manufacturing defect.
    Any suggestions for this issue? Or should I just give up and learn to live with them?

    If anybody's reading this in the future, DP's advice definitely worked. I hadn't removed the video card originally. When I did, I noticed that it had so much dust in it that the fan wasn't able to operate. Embarrassing. Anyways, I cleaned it out and now the computer's running smoothly. A lot quieter too!

  • Lenovo S960 Touch Screen Issue

    Hello everyone,
    I just have one concern on S960 Vibe X model of Lenovo smartphone.
    Can someone help or advise why the touchscreen do not respond whenever I connect it to charger?
    To elaborate, I can't use or I can't click or select any button (or applications) of my phone when I connect it to charger.
    Can anybody advise if you also encountered this problem?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello erickson
    I have received your issue yesterday and then I tried my best to solve your problem, I verified all the most version of S960 and did not reproduce your problem . So I think the issue which occured to your phone maybe corner case . I suggest you'd better go to the Lenovo service center and ask them to help you solve the problem.
    Thanks for your feedback ! I hope you will still support our products and I will try my best to solve the problem as soon as possible
    Best Regards

  • WT10-A Touch screen Issues

    I bought this less than a week ago and i am having issues with the touch screen. It just stops working all of a sudden for no reason and i have to restart to make it work. It will work fine for hours sometimes but sometimes i have to restart every five minutes. Can someone please help me solve this issue. ThanksKarman

    I'm no scientist (although I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express)... but do you think that perhaps the touch screen issues a lot of folks are experiencing could be due to liquid evaporation? Maybe these people are leaving the iPhone in a hot car (or some other really warm place) for an extended period and not admitting it? I mean it is summertime.
    Not liquid, but you could be onto something.
    Heat is one of the few things that can cause a capacitive screen system go out of calibration, due to the effect on surrounding part specs. Perhaps that's what we're seeing.
    I suppose someone with the problem could stick their phone in the refrigerator (not freezer!) for ten minutes and see if that cures their problem.
    More likely, there are several different problems going on, and what works for one won't work for others.
    My biggest suspicion is that a memory interface is on the edge (either power or timing), and thus weird glitches show up. Restorting the device only when it is fully charged might be one experiment. Give us a dozen bad devices, the source code, a lab with an ICE, and a coupla weeks... and we could figure out what's going on.

  • Touch Screen Issues on Xperia Z1

    Who else is experiencing touch screen issues?
    On my phone, the screen fails to register the finger gesture appropriately, for instance, a tap on the screen will be identified as scroll up. single touch on the back button will be registered as many taps, ultimately exiting the application.
    OHH!this phone has made my life **bleep**!

  • Lenovo Edge 15 Touch Screen Issues

    Hello, I just three days ago bought a brand-new Edge 15 laptop, about which I'm very excited, and while I'm not usually the kind of person who likes touch screens on his laptops I want it to work since I know it comes with it! When I first opened it, the touchscreen worked perfectly fine, but as soon as I installed the first round of Windows updates (I believe 8->8.1?) it suddenly stopped working. I installed the second round of updates and it worked for a hot second but now it doesn't work again. If I pull up the device manager, no touchscreen appears under "Human Interface Devices" but a device does appear under "USB Controllers" labeled "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)" I can't for the life of me find the drivers for the Edge 15 touchscreen on the Lenovo support website and nothing I'm finding for any other laptop touchscreen problems appears to be helping. Anyone have any help? Has anyone seen this before? Where's the incompatability between Windows 8.1 and my new touchscreen? Why is the device descriptor request failing? I only just bought the laptop! Thanks!

    Alright... it spontaneously was working for about 20 minutes just now. Don't know what changed, and I don't know why it stopped working again. O_o

  • Win 8.1 Upgrade Disabled Twist Touch Screen Fixed

    After a Win 8.1 Upgrade, I had no touch screen function. Calls to Lenovo led nowhere Same with searching Microsoft boards. I fixed the issue on Sunday 6/1- No help from Lenovo or Microsoft.
    For me it was finding two "Unknown Devices" in the HID section of Device Manager which did not have drivers installed. After researching and determining that Win 8.1 will not allow unsigned device drivers, and also seeing the "Update Driver" option failing because the drivers on the laptop that fit the problem were getting an 'INF unsigned driver error', I went through the steps to allow unsigned drivers... Charm Bar>Settings>Change PC Settings>Update and Recovery>Recovery>Advanced Startup>-Restart> Troubleshoot>Advanced Options>Startup Settings> Restart and then Chose #7>Allow Unsigned Device Drivers and Restart again... then Updating the two Unknown Devices with the drivers already on the Twist.... and voila- the errors disappeared and the touchscreen returned to full function.
    I don't know if this happened to many people, but Lenovo had no idea what to do. They wanted me to ship them the laptop and allow them to roll it back to Windows 8. Posting here to distribute it to a larger audience. Maybe someone at Microsoft should call Lenovo too or Lenovo should call Microsoft. The Twist is a great laptop with Win 8.1 when everything works the way it should. 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Cvj17,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per your query we understood that you are looking driver for Unknown device. In some system after installing all the drivers also the unknown device will show in Lenovo Solution Center, hence confirm it once in device manage is there any Unknown adapter is showing in that.
    Please install Lenovo System Update application and run it to verify the driver automatically.
    Unknown Device issue.
    Hope this helps.

  • IPhone 5S touch screen issues

    I´m writing from Argentina, so we don´t have apple store here to go to replace the cellphone or repair it! I could buy the whole touch screen and replace it by my self, but I don´t know if is only a problem with the touch screen or maybe an issue with the battery or other hardware components!
    Sorry for my English! thank you in advance!

  • Lenovo A1 - Touch screen not working after digitizer replacemen​t

    After dropping my tablet and breaking the digitzer, I ordered a replacement digitzer from a company in China. (It took about a month to get it) After watching this video, I was able to install my new digitizer and it finally looked new again....well at least the screen!
    But.....when I powered up my tablet, the touch screen wasn't working..... I emailed back and forth with the company and they told me to install drive program, and send me a link to a site with a video, this site may have contained more than the video, but it was all in Chinese and I couldn't figure it out even with Google Translate. So I started researching. I thought I would try and load ICS on it, I thought, "Whats the worst thing that could happen?" it wasn't much more than a brick at this point anyways. 
    I found this website that let me through installing ICS on it. I had absolutly no expectations...but IT WORKED!!!! MY TOUCH SCREEN IS NOW WORKING!!!! I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
    When I was researching for this problem, there was absolutly no posts anywhere for "Touch screen not working after new digitizer". So I wanted to share my experience.

    Yea you are correct.....it must be a hardware problem. You must contact service centre of Lenovo and get help from there.

  • Portege M750 Touch screen issues

    I have a Portege M750 that has been upgraded to Windows 7. It came with Vista.  The digitizer portion of the screen works fine but the touch portion does not.  I did a complete fresh reinstall.  I cleared the cache and the temp files and downloaded the driver.
    The touch portion still does not work. Does anyone else have an idea, or helpful hints.  Is there a way to figure out the original configuration through Toshiba?

  • N97 (White unbranded) - Touch Screen Issues

    Hi,
    I had purchased N97 white from Nokia Flagship store few months back. From the last month or so i am seen my mobile's touch screen at times freezes and then on its own works after some time. This problem lasts for few seconds to few minutes and really make the phone dead like i can not receive the call using the touch screen or green button.
    I have visted flagship store many times and booked it also but unfortunately nokia care people have been flashing the software and saying that it works. Unfortunately it does not look to be a software problem. I now have again booked it and have asked for the replacement.
    Has anybody else faced the similar problem ? Does anyone know what's the likelihood of i getting the replacement and what's the turn around time from nokia.
    Thanks.
    Sandeep

    i doubt that they will replace your device if it has been more then 30 days since you bought it. they might fix it for you by swapping some components if indeed this is a hardware issue. here in the US because i have to send out the phone to another state to get it fixed it may take several weeks to get the phone back. it all depends on where you live and if you have a care center by you.

  • Windows 7 Touch screen issues

    I have a need on a windows 7 Restive touch device to have a touch and hold function just like a mouse click and Hold. Currently by default this works as a right click, disabling tap and hold to right click does not resolve the issue. This is the scenario:The touch screen is an HMI, it is used to control a PLC. I have a button that "Jogs" a motor. The motor will run at a slow speed in one direction as long as the button on the screen is held down.I can do this action in XP with no issue using third parting touch screen software specific to the display and I can do it on the Windows 7 system with the mouse. The system I have does not appear to have specific software for the display rather that display takes care of the translation and then sends commands to the OS. Cool except I don't have the function I need. Anyone have issues with...
