Hey! Brilliant! I had a cracked screen and I replaced the screen and the digitizer... when I reassembled them i was having tons of trouble using the touch screen - it was horrible... But I did what you said and simply reseated the digitizer cables carefully and voila!!! It works perfectly again! Thanks so much...

N7 screen worked intermittently. Finally I did the "drop it on the floor" trick and it worked, so I yanked the back off and I'm pretty sure the ribbon cable connecter was not in all the way. We'll see, but I'm confident that it worked for me. Thanks a lot !

Great way to make little jagged marks - using a narrow metal screwdriver to pop the lid. It's also easy to crack the flat cable holders if using just the edge of a screwdriver. Use plastic tools. The software reset actually helped a little, I swapped the entire screen and digitizer in this one (wishing I had gotten one with the frame as well). So it's hopefully just a poor connection. I'll try a cleanup and reattachment later. Thanks for the tips.

I can literally sit there and press an icon/ink/app/whatever with my index finger over and over and nothing will register. Thanks for providing the ASUS warranty info!

I seem to have solved my slow response screen by getting rid of a website in my frequently visited display in Chrome. I'm figuring they were fat and sucking resources. I dumped them and my touch screen is snappy again. It was real sluggish before. I was a little afraid to try your fix but will have the tech at the store do it. I'm sure its worth it as you say. Thanks.

I replaced a cracked digitizer/touch screen. I had bought a LCD and digitizer already assembled as seeing others that only bought digitizer was way to much work. After install at 3am I put on charge and did not test. This morning bottom corners of digitizer would not work and touch was jittery. Looked at this very helpful video. Pulled back off of tablet. The line on the left side ribbon cable was slightly off compared to connector. I unplugged both ribbon cables, meaning the ones with the clips you have to lift up. Removed ribbons cables from connectors. I noticed ribbon cable does not match straight up with connectors. They are actually slightly to the right. I inserted both ribbon cables into their respective connectors. Then by pushing on the bulk of the ribbon cable that is on the out side edge of the tablet board I aligned the left side ribbon cable line with the connector and pushed down connector clip to hold in place. The right side was pretty much aligned so I closed connector clip. Put back together. WORKS PERFECT. Thanks for the video.

Sorted. Turned out to be a loose connection from the battery which is unrelated, but the video showed vlearly what wires were what.
