    The ED060XH7 has the ELAN Yilong eKTF2232ALW chip, and in the old ED060XCD what is your digitizer chip?

    I have searched the internet for these displays and unfortunately they are not completely compatible. The touch sensor is glued a bit differently in both of these screens and it is related to the different configuration of the touch controller. Updating the PocketBook firmware overwrites this configuration and thus may break the touch operation. Some solution is to disable the update.

    He concludes that the controller is the same and only the soft differs. I do not have to check, because now I have two ED060XH7 screens

    I was still browsing the motherboards of both readers in search of some resistor pulling some line to ground depending on the screen used and I found a different chip soldered to the motherboard, I marked it in the photo.

    On February 25, the latest update to this reader was released, it focuses mainly on improving file support, but maybe someone of you has already tested this screen replacement, does it support it?

    I checked and I admit that the latest software does not change anything in this topic. Version 6.3.499 and the ED060XH7 display do not work together ;)

    If someone had a changed screen and yet was interested in updating the software, just do this:
    1. We download the soft we are interested in from the manufacturer's website.
    2. Unpack the archive on the SD card so that the SWUPDATE.BIN file is in the root directory of the SD card
    3. Turn the reader off and insert it into the soft SD card
    4. Remove the back of the reader. On the right side at the top of the motherboard next to the battery connector is connected a touch. For the duration of the update, disconnect it after disconnecting the battery - connect the battery.
    5. Start the reader by holding down the back keys (< ;) and front (> ;) .
    6. The reader updates itself without requiring any confirmation by the touch panel and does not change anything in the touch controller
    7. After the update is finished, turn off the reader, disconnect the batteries, connect the touch and reconnect the battery.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the challenges of replacing the cracked screen of the PocketBook Touch Lux 4, specifically regarding the compatibility and transfer of the touch function from the original screen to a new one. Users share experiences with the ED060XH7 touch screen, noting that while it may fit physically, issues arise due to differences in touch controller configurations and the gluing method used for the touch panel. Some users successfully replaced their screens, while others faced complications after firmware updates that rendered the touch function inoperative. Recommendations include careful selection of replacement parts and potential firmware downgrades to restore functionality. The conversation highlights the importance of verifying compatibility before purchasing replacement screens and the difficulties in communicating with suppliers for accurate parts.
