I dropped my Coby Kyros mid7022 and its touchscreeen stopped working. I turn it on and am stuck at the lock screen. When I try to power it off, it shows Silent mode, Airplane mode, and Power Off. The silent mode button is highlited as if it is being pressed. Im hoping recalibration would fix it, the question is, how can I recalibrate it? I see that it has mouse usb support. Im going to try getting a microusb-usb converter to see if it works, but if it doesnt, then does anyone have some suggestions?
Tried resetting it by pushing the btton on the back, but right now im trying to let the battery die to see if that works.
 
Just realized I had a micro to regular converter... Calibrating it didnt work.. Any ideas? At least its usable, but my wife is going to kill me if the touchscreen cant get fixed...
 
Any luck? I have the same tablet and exactly one half of my screen doesn't respond after being dropped. I took it apart to check the ground connections and no luck. I feel its something simple but cannot find it. Luckily I can rotate the screen to access almost anything still. Let me know if you find anything and I'll do the same. At worst you can hook it to a TV and use a keyboard and mouse and use it that way I guess. My fiance didn't get mad when I dropped mine because it happened when I fell on the stairs lol. I now own a touchpad but would still like to fix the 7022 for my girl or to sell it. Good luck.
