Hi, my phone boots up, but my screen doesn't.
Well it actually semi-work. When i turn it on the screen it show colored dots, and those dots lighten up.
Erlier the screen showed up but was laggy as hell(The display not actually the OS, i can feel it xD).

sounds more or less hardware related, if it is still within warranty, do send it away for assessment...

You flashed anything to it that may gave caused it? If you boot into recovery or download mode does anything get displayed?

Watched ur clip. Apart from the screen , I'm hearing the default ring repeatedly. I used to have this ringtone issue everytime i started my phone up. A factory reset and sd card format solved that for me. i agree that screen issue looks hardware related and something that should be covered under your warranty. new digitizer and amoled screen.

Oops mistakenly thanked your post! Lol
Well you could send it off and gamble that they might just fix it even though you have tampered with it.
If I was you I would be tempted to flash back to a stock rom first though.
Yea flash a stock rom via odin, i suppose it gets recognized via USB.
Also use a Jig if you have one.
Just turn the phone off, boot into download mode and hit the volume up rocker after a few seconds. Should work.
I'm on a stock rom, i flashed only a custom kernel..

Can anyone make a video on how to Hard Reset from Recovery?
I know how to, but i can't see, so i need to know the number of button press.
Exemple:
Boot into recovery
2 times volume down->ok->3times volume up->ecc..
Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my english i just came back from school(slept 4h)
@xx1182
My phone died in exactly the same way this morning. Lucky for me Vodafone UK are giving me a replacement tomorrow (I expected them to say I had to send it in for repair, because it's 3 months old).
I will be so angry if it turns out that this phone has inherent build-quality/toughness issues. I haven't mistreated it at all.
Hope you get your problem resolved.

I cant make a video, so i'll just describe.
Wipe Factory reset => 2 clicks down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button
Wipe cache => 3 clicks down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button
Wipe Dalvik => 3 clicks up, home button, 1 click down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button
Then turn off with power button and reboot to download. Flash stock kernel, use usb jig, and go over to the service station.

Hey guys,
I am currently having an issue where my S1 gets stuck on the boot up screen. It seems to freeze on the "Sony" text before it gets to the boot animation and just stays there until I long press the power button to turn off. I tried the reset function first to no avail. Then I let the battery completely drain and recharge before I turned it back on and it still gets stuck in the same place. I have not rooted or done anything to it but download a few apps and a launcher. Two things I would like to avoid is doing a factory reset but more importantly avoid dealing with Sony and their warranty. Any help you all could provide would be appreciated!
Unfortunately you have only this two choices ...
Factory reset or Sony (dealer) warranty ...

I was having wifi issues after rooting and did a factory reset solving my problem. If you don’t have that many apps on your tab I'm pretty sure it will fix your problem. Since you haven't rooted your devise then you should be fine calling Sony tech support if the factory reset doesn’t fix the boot loop.
Thanks for your responses. I spent a lot of time setting up my home pages as hubs so this sucks!
Next question, does anyone know how to perform factory reset without booting up the device? I performed one when I first received it but went through the Settings. Since I cant get past the boot screen, I obviously cant do it that way.
factory data reset
with the tablet off you need to press and hold the volume + button and then press and hold the power button. keep holding both buttons and when you see the sony logo release the power button only. once you get the android system recovery mode you release the volume button and use the volume + and - to navigate the menu and quickly press the power button to make a selection. before you do the reset try this: access the recovery mode and select restart and cancel, your tablet might boot normally.

If you are unable to enter stock recovery I would think you will probably have to contact Sony. Even if you have adb I don’t think you would be able to do anything because your devise is not rooted. Someone correct if I am wrong.
I believe you are right.
I was unable to get the tablet into recovery using the method stated above. I get to the Sony screen (as always) but when I release the volume button the tablet turns off. Now I have to deal with Sony. Crap! What are the chances they replace it under warranty when I bought it off ebay?

Call them and play dumb. Tell them that you received it as a gift and you weren’t sure where it was purchased from. It’s worth a shot.

My Solution
I just had this problem, what I did was..
when on the Sony logo I took out my SD card>unplugged power>did a hard reboot>waited about 30sec>then powered the tablet on and it booted normally.
I hope this was somewhat helpful
My Tablet have the same issues. It goes to Sony Service Center. I think is a shame for Sony, because the tablet is 8 months old. That is not quality.

Ok guys, i have serious problems here..
I just installed viper rom last night and everything works normally in about 3 hours until i restored my apps by titanium backup then my screen goes blank with capatitive button lights on
But everything seems to work, i turn off screen then turn on again i can feel vibrate for unlock screen. even i got some calls i can accept that. but my screen is full black.
Tried to turn off power, go to bootloader and my screen still black. huh. i push vol down button one time to go to recovery mode and it works, my phone vibate once again.
I hope this is not hardware problems bcz i live in Indonesia and htc Indonesia wont accept my phone to be repaired. Anyone had this issue before?
Thanks before..
For info what i did before:
Flash viper rom
Flash de sense script
Flash swipe to clear
boot normally for some hours until titanium backup process make this thing happens.. :-(
I'm guessing its either swipe to clear or tb that screwed your phone up. Since swipe to clear deals with the screen I'm leaning towads that. Also in your tb backup you restored did you have the ponury gesture app ??? Henceforth you should try a full wipe, if you have a superwipe zip I'd recommend flashing it. Then wipe cache,data,davlik-cache. Then either restore a nand or flash a fresh rom without any mods and see if the issue remains. Also if you restore with tb only restore app not apps+data. Also what rom were you running??

i mean everything is works but screen is black. i cant see anything also bootloader and recovery mode. but i believe its works.
go to bootloader by holding vol down and power 5 second then prress vol down then power it boots to recovery mode, i know bcz my phone was vibrate one time, but screen is black.
im on hboot 1.5 so i tried "fastboot boot recovery.img" and my phone vibrate again. i know my phone works normally except the screen is blank.
im using twrp 1.0.3
if the screen is dead why i can stiil recieve call and turn on hotspot?? (i know place of hotspot toggle in quick setting, 2nd row)..
really appreciate all helps..
i feels like on evo 3d blind mode now..
If you're in Indonesia, I'm guessing you have a gsm phone.viperROM is cdma. You'll have to flash a gsm ROM. Your screen issues are probably due to kernel issues.

I have the same problem as you, but this is something I found out yesterday:
If you go to a dark room, and you turn on your S2, you can see some sort of.. light black/grayish pixel spots over your screen. It is pretty hard to see, that's why you need to be in a dark room.
Did anyone else notice this, or am I the only one?

Hi I noticed it too, what I also noticed is that sometimes when using the face unlock on "waking" the phone up with the power key worked, I'm hoping it is not a hardware issue because it's intermittent.
Hi all.
I have this same problem with my screen on sgs2 . Also can see screen in darkness. Sound and phone works fine.
After opening up, came up with this problem
I opened up the back of the phone, to clean off some lint between the camera lens, and the glass on the outside, after closing it, This problem occurred.
The thing is, the touch screen works fine. I can navigate through the phone (using another Galaxy S2 to guide me of course), and everything. I can turn it off and on, etc.
So, this may be a hardware issue, but can someone chime in and let us know the specific hardware issue that may be in play here?
I'm having the same problem. I'm repairing a water damaged phone, and after the cleaning, it would hang on the galaxy S2 logo. I got it into download mode, and left it that way while I was Dling the proper Odin files, but when I came back 15 minutes later, it was a black screen. I finally realized it was still working, and navigated into download mode by memory, and successfully flashed the firmware. But now the screen that was working, refuses to turn on, although the capacitive lights do, and the phone is seemingly working normally.
It seems like it has to be something simple, the LCD shouldn't just die altogether for no reason. I'll keep messing around, and if I figure anything out, I'll report back. Or maybe someone else figures it out, and I can benefit!
As an update, I plugged the non working screen into a working S2, and it showed the Samsung logo on boot up. Then it went black again, but it can still show images, and did it multiple times. So the LCD works, but something is messing it up.

Hey guys!
I have the same problem... does anybody have an idea what's happening to our phones?
Not to beat a dead horse but I am trying to recover pictures from my sisters phone. I plugged in a working screen, get the Samsung logo on boot then a low lit black screen however the boot sound still plays, all buttons on the bottom light up and give heptic feedback and so on. I don't have any lcd lights though... Lastly when I have the phone off and plug into the wall I do get the battery charge symbol flash on the screen but then goes back to a black screen and the battery still charges. I plug the phone into a computer and can see it connected although cant get kies to work with it... Any updates from anyone else or ideas? This phone has pictures of her daughter that passed away and are irreplaceable. I am willing to try anything so she can hold onto those memories

So I was charging my phone, and it restarted itself and now it's stuck in a bootloop!
I can't access download mode or recovery, it keeps restarting before I have the opportunity to press any buttons (hardware or on screen) and removing the battery does nothing either, as soon as I put the battery back in, the phone resets without me even pushing the power button
I'm using Temasek CM11 v8 with the "201113-1248-cm11-i9300-r3p2-linux30101-BOEFFLA-temasek" kernel
Is it recoverable?
I've managed to get it into both Recover and Download mode briefly, but both times the phone restarted within a few seconds back to the bootloop
Sounds like the power button is shorted out, fairly cheap repair if so.

Thanks for the reply. What makes you think that it's the power button shorting?
Holding power button for 5 seconds acts as a hard reset, everywhere.
That's a good starting point actually. There's no reason for download mode to reboot automatically. If it loaded then it waits for the events. Either it works until you do anything with a PC, or doesn't work at all.
hi
try using a universal battery charger and then try again

Ah Well I suppose that makes it pretty conclusive. 2 hours later and it's still bootlooping... I'd take it apart but I don't really know what i'm looking for and I suspect if it's shorting, something will need replacing or soldering etc. Thanks very much

The issue of having it shortly resetting once reinstalled the battery sounds to me like a hardware failure, most probably hard resetting all the time.
A hardware repair should help fix this.

It's funny you say that, after hours and hours of trying to get my phone to work, somehow through more luck than judgement I managed to get it into recovery and flash WanamLite 7.2 (I figured it was the next best thing to stock, as I couldn't access download mode) and well... since then, touch wood my phone hasn't restarted itself even once... now granted in that time i've only touched the power button once, to turn on the device, but it seems like progress to me
So my question is, is it possible that I could of had a bad flash or something? It seems too coincidental to me, and I don't actually think the different ROMs have anything to do with the problem (that is still lingering beneath I suspect), but the optimist in me REALLY wants it to be fixed haha
EDIT: Oh and thank you tweetatoo for your reply

Interesting, thanks. It's just a bit confusing, it seems plausible because I flashed the ROM earlier in the day but at the same time, im not sure how much control the new ROM would have over the phone entering Download Mode... Mind boggling.
I'll keep an eye on it for a bit... and im still too scared to use the power button haha
Thanks very much
Download mode is entirely separate to the rom, I still think your power button shorted out (stuck down) as it's been reported many times before. If you have warranty then now would be the time to triangle away and return to stock for a while, just in case.

Looks like water damage for sure.. does the screen do that at all when it is completely booted?
I have personally never seen a boot animation do that from a software standpoint..actually I take that back..I have but it has failed to boot..this while porting from and different device with different screen resolution

Hmm.. yea that would not make sense. I would try to Odin flash a stock img. You can find the thread in General section on how to restore to stock

No. If you Odin a stock img like for instance MC3, which is the official Verizon release, it will not. You only mess with the warranty when rooting your phone.
Did you take the 4.4.2 OTA? If so then you need to use that instead. If you don't have it I can provide a link
