        I purchased my Pixel 3a on yahoo auction for $150 USD last year, it got an issue with the digitaliser, so i replaced the whole screen from one from aliexpress. It was working on Android but i could notice the digitaliser was not the best. Installed Ubuntu Touch but it seem the digitaliser's not recognize. For the moment, i could swap the sims card to my spare phone so i can get some data over using a usb mouse or usb keyboard if allowed on the first screen, so i can help get the file needed for the driver. Kinda just need some tips for own to contribute to it. Kinda had realised i have 0 need for android since i do everything in a web browser.

          I don't know if it can be helpfull, but some time ago i broke my screen, still working, the touch layer was not anymore, so i had to replace the screen.

          I bought a non original screen for my MX4 and it worked well under Ubuntu Touch, since then i replaced it by an original screen from another MX4 (a stuck to android one) because the spare screen i purchased was poor quality and the touch feeling was awfull, but it worked well.

          Maybe you should check if all the connectors are well connected before trying anything else.

            @keneda I used that screen for a full year now, was working a couple hour ago, moved from dirty unicorn to the recommended version, was stll working on stock 9.0, flash ubuntu, don't work on the first screen to select the language. The screen's cracked again, yes, but it worked for a solid 2 months like that fine and the hairline cannot expend anymore.
