I have a Latin American P1000n Phablet. I rooted it and lost the touchscreen function. I then followed these instructions to restore factory Gingerbread and now have a blank screen. The tablet stills powers on and off and even goes into Download mode. I assume this because I can still use ODIN3 and flash the files again. But still have the black screen. HELP plz.

Thx

@buddym, did you use the ROM files in the guide or you downloaded the stock ROM from another source?

[BuddyM]

I got them from your link using pwd vio. The Latin Version definitely has different hardware for touchscreen than USA. I loaded your files twice with same results. Is there another rom i should use?

Thx
Buddy
