Hi !

My M3 touch panel is almost dead, so i need to replace it.

I've found a repair kit on ebay, but i just wanted to ask it if someone had a better deal

Can i trust this offer ?

Thanks !

Yes it's a good offer and the kit includes everything you'll need except a Phillips No. 2 screwdriver.

So i changed the touch panel, quite easy (but i'm not a beginner).

Then everything works

Yeah \o/

My screen has some issues too. I can get it to calibrate, but it seems to me I'm not pressing the actual squares in calibration mode, but just below it. Is this normal? Maybe I'll order a screen anyway.

In my case, the touch panel was non-touchable in the lowest left area, nothing to do with calibration.

About the calibration problem, i'v heard it could be a software bug... is your M3 up-to-date with system 2.0.5 ?

Uh no it isn't. I'm a 2.0.4. Is there a OS update for a Radias too? I'm a 1.0 on that front.

Would the link be at Korg.com for the M3 OS? I'll go look.

My EXB-RADIAS is in version 2.1, but i can't remember where to find the update.

For the real radias, i don't know.

The Radias 2.0 update is located in the M3 download section on Korg's website.

V2.1 was an unofficial release but a download link might still be at this thread...
