    Compensation isn't necessary. It was fun and I'm glad I can help. With that said, no guarantees. I haven't carved it.

    Try re-formatting the data card and re-flash the firmware. It may not solve the problem but it's a good place to start. Also, check the ffc cable for flaws or loose connections.
