Nexus 7 Fix Touchscreen

Wed, 10 Oct 2018 09:00:27 +0000

The Nexus 7 has a quite faulty touchscreen which is prone to ghosting and similiar.

If you got your device rooted, you could go for Parrotmod, which seems to fix said problem:

Another soultion would be to flash a new touchscreen firmware, as shown here. However, I have not tested this yet.

Lineage OS Fix: After reboot phone not usable anymore (Only back button/statusbar visible)

Tue, 07 Feb 2017 09:00:37 +0000

Sadly, my Nexus 4 (mako) had a rough experience after upgrading to Lineage OS: After a reboot, I ended up with this screen:

As you can see, only the back button and status bar are visible anymore, I can drag down the status bar and enable / disable stuff but cannot launch the settings or anything else - brick’d :(. I had to reinstall that thing several times, but then came to the conclusion what caused the error: I had enabled a screenlock (does not matter which kind :)) and played with the System Profile under Settings. I created a second System Profile which - as soon as it connected to my Home Wifi, removed the screenlock. And that was the problem. After two additional reboots, the error as seen manifested.

Nexus 4 / Nexus 7 CrossUpgrade from Cyanogenmod to Lineage OS

Thu, 26 Jan 2017 09:36:34 +0000

EDIT: Experimental Builds were deleted now, as initial stated by LineageOS Team in this post. CrossUpgrade is not possible anymore, best bet would be to wipe the device and start from scratch. So just skip the second step with EXP Image and WIPE EVERYTHING in TWRP and install the latest nightly. Please also stay alert on bugs which are included in LineageOS. This link will give you access to the unresolved section of the Nexus 4 / Mako device, while this link will give you access to the same for the Nexus 7 2013 Wifi / flo :). Also, you can find the latest changes for mako here and for flo here.
