Hello,

Thanks for your work but I found some inconsistency...
I try to recover my tablet from the "bottom reverse scrolling problem and I could not get it work yet so I did some tests.
I found something out:
You wrote:
This is the latest fw for the A19 touchscreen and also works on the 101H too. Use this one to if your not sure.
https://dl.dropbox.c...7260_Config_MIL
https://dl.dropbox.c...ginal/it7260_FW

then you wrote:
This is the firmware from a similar tablet (DVC P10). It works (badly) on the P10AN01 but If you have flashed the latest 101H fw to an A19 touchscreen, flashing the correct firmware wont fix it (bottom half of the screen touches are reversed) you will need to flash this firmware first and then the original test rom, calibrate, flash the new test rom, install tputility2, flash correct firmware for your touchscreen and and then flash original test rom to calibrate.

https://dl.dropbox.c...��DVC/it7260_FW


The files did somehow match too exactly.

so I did a checksum (SHA1) on both Firmwares and detected, that they are identical
Firmware:

badd0751c543810ed450ede421f6df6e890166e2 *it7260_Config_MIL
1138a8e91758abe6704b3711f7f359cf0291004b *it7260_FW


"Revovery-Firmware:"
badd0751c543810ed450ede421f6df6e890166e2 *it7260_Config_MIL
1138a8e91758abe6704b3711f7f359cf0291004b *it7260_FW

So can you please reupload the original recoveryfirmware again?

thanks in advance.

Hi Richard
What a ton of work - but unfortunately my Viewpad 10s is now not booting.
I've used NVflash to flash 4 of the images  linked to in this thread including the stock 20110411_v1.10.4_std_dev : after each one it starts up to the green Droid showing for ~2secs, then goes blank.
So I tried VGAfixer from http://www.modaco.co...is-will-fix-it/ .
and despite the bootloader.bin file in its folder its batch file readsthat it doesn't find it:

=======================================
Nvflash started

Any clues in the above?

Newbie at this so please excuse if have missed the obvious ;-)

Signed up just to say thanks for this topic - I'd bought a Vega on ebay back in April last year that I knew from the description simply had a bad ROM flash problem.  Got that sorted a few minutes after receiving it but it had an unresponsive stripe in a perfect line about an inch wide from top to bottom right down the middle of the screen in portrait mode/across in landscape.  I was convinced it was a physical fault - I'd tried all the ROMs available at the time and got nowhere with the shuttle tools or your other fixes  - even tried the iron just in case it was a detachment problem.  I was just about to order a bargain basement tablet on Amazon this morning then remembered the Vega sat in the drawer and thought I'd have one last search for repair tips and found this.  Oddly, it didn't show any problem with the firmware for the touch screen - when I checked the TPUtility it showed a valid version 1.7.20.21 but after flashing to a different FW the dead stripe moved (ended up with the reversed strip issue).  A few more tries with different FW and I ended up back on my original version numbers but everything working.  Vega is now happily running VegaCream RC2 with no issues.  (Apologies for the formatting, for some reason IE or the forum code isn't liking 'Enter'.

The screen on my Vega has just become completely unresponsive, at what point in the steps in the OP would I find if I was going to get any response at all from the screen - in other words after running the tputility do I need to flash the next rom before getting any response or should I be able to get some sort of response even if not calibrated properly before that ?

Sorted used the viewpad rom and the screen came back to life, flashed on a new rom and calibrated a few times and now works nicely.

I need help.. ready to fleabay this or smash it up.

My 101H touchscreen as been playing up for months. Over sensitive in places, dead in others, double touches, ghost touches etc.... I've tried all the firmwares and whilst sometimes i can get the testrom (1.10.4) to work perfectly, as soon as i flash any other rom including the original advent one it just goes back to playing up..

Any help...

[gokhank]

I tried first one and it worked. You're lifesaver. Thanks a lot!

Hi guys

Unfortunately one tablet did not go after the upgrade. I noticed that they are not soldering the pins in ITE. After resoldering ITE, FW works without a problem.

1st photo.

Yellow / Orange pins not soldering.




2nd photo.

Resoldering pins OK.

thank you- the instructions worked!
