can u still use your warranty to repair it for free?? if is it your case i would send it to se because i had a similar problem,but in my case my touch screen didnt work properly,i press on the top but it was selected the bottom options,and it kept pressing bottom all the time... so i went back to stock rom with seus,relocked the bootloader,unrooted the phone and send it to repair... finally i received a week later with a new touch screen for free!! i hope to be helpful!!

Um... I think that warranty does not apply on damage caused by customer itself. You'll have to send it to repair, with a risk to pay, even if you have stock rom/kernel, I think.

you're true!! obviously if they see a screen crashed if you want it new, you'll have to pay... but i thought this buddy says his mini looks good but doesn't work... he can try anyway... in my case it falls on the floor but not so high, and I think it caused my problem... maybe not! maybe it was a fault in my touchscreen and that's why I got it reppaired for free... He can try anyway...

Qeustion
My HD screen is off, and i cant seem to get it on again.
I just was working on it 1hour ago, took it out of my pocket and see that i have no screen.
Rebooted the phone, but no succes .. i see the screen turning on, but it light-gray (backlight) but no actual info/colors etc, also tryd a soft reset, no succes.
I have the Energy ROM Com5 build from 8July with the new 2.12 radio rom.
Could it be that in some way the screen died?
Hope someone can help me, im @ work now so i cant connect it with the PC.
When im home im planning to reflash the device ..
Thanks!
Weird
I just pressed a button and the screen turned on, and the colours/info just slowely fade away ... weird.
Could it be that the touchscreen is not oke anymore?
Or could it be a problem in the radio/rom i use? (and therefore a reflash could fix this?)
Hope its a easy sollution, otherwise ill be flashing it to stock and get it fixed by HTC.
Very very strange.
It seems to work again.
Anyone think i should reflash it to stock and try get a new one?
Are these signs of a screen going defect?
I dont know, first phone for me with touchscreen.
I would suspect a faulty screen, if it is still within warranty i would deffinately get a new one, however yes, try going back to stock first, see if it helps, it may be just a bad flash.
screen problem
I've had this and similar problems with my HD2, now on the 5th replacement from HTC in just 6 months of owning the phone. I also had the same problem on my HTC HD previously. Press the power key and just the buttons at the bottom light up but no response from the screen. Also had exactly the same problem your experiencing where you can faintly see the screen but not lit up. Flash it to stock rom and return to HTC for repair.
BEWARE!!! take some pics with date stamps of your handset before returning. They sent me 3 handsets all with the glass front panel not fitted correctly. Check the return handset carefully, you should be able to feel a lip between the casing and the screen as the screen is set a fraction lower than the casing. THis should be uniform all around. They tried telling me that i had damaged it myself despite calling them as soon as the handset had been delivered back to me.

That's 'sleep of death', which affects loads of htc devices.
Oke i will stock it soon and return for repair.
I think its idd a screen problem, cause when the screen isnt functioning anymore, and when i put my ear on the glass, i hear a little squishing sound, like air is escaping .. it doesnt do that when the screen shows info/colour.
guys i dropped my hd2 the screen did not crack but it is showing yelow patches.i mean the clouds are yellow too.when i flex my phone the colour comes back to normal.i gave my phone to the htc repair center they said my motherboard/mainboard's socket has a problem and needs a replacement which is very expensive.After it fell when i keep the phone in my pocket and when i remove it after a while to use it,it does not wake up and i have to pul out the batery and restart it.Now my question is can it realy be the mainboard isue?or its my screen malfunctioning?i have a doubt on this.please help.

I got the same.
I dropped it twice, now my screen is f*cked.
When I bent it a little bit it goes back to normal.
I'm waiting for a fully backup program for all my apps/sms/photo's/etc before I want to give it to a repair center. Want to make it so dat I never dropped it and the screen just suddenly started to act very strange. Hope it will fall under warranty
Do you perhaps know a full backup program?
(something like you also use on a normal pc like making a ghost image, and when the phone returns you can load the image and everything is back to normal including your own apps/photo's/sms etc...)

Hi guys,
I bought a second hand mini pro, and flashed (rooted, unlocked bootloader)it with the help of one of the several guides. with Simplexity and MiniCM7
It seemed to work fine at first, but now something odd happens.
I can only turn the device on (working) when I keep the keyboard slided out. When I start up with it slided in, The screen is turned on but no image appears: It stays black.
When it is turned on (slided out) I can use the phone normally. But when I slide it back in, the screen is frozen and won't react to touches.
Putting the phone in and out of standby (slided out) will have two possible outcomes: Either its usable as normal. Or it simply won't come out of standby at all. The phone seems to react (sounds) to pressing the buttons on the keyboard though.
I used Seus and manual methods to reflash to stock, try other kernels, but the problems remain.
I think it's the hardware that's failing but maybe this can be caused by the flashing as well?
Are there any methods to rule out one or the other?

I'm responding to the thread's title : It's a hardware failure.Brick means you can't even power it on/flash mode.If I helped click the "Thanks" button.Also,try using nAa-11 my and x10man's ROM called XMP Rom and tell us if you still have this problem.I understand that you posted this here (If you post it in questions section almost no one will respond )so I won't tell about that.
(Oh, my bad. Mods feel free to move my thread)
I was afraid of that. I'll try your ROM as well, but I'm afraid its the hardware too.
Thankfully I only paid 30 euros for it
I think the flex cable is gone bad, i have the same problem here. My mobile doesnt respond to any touches. First it happened only when i would slide the keyboard. But now its dead as a whole

The XMP rom didn't fix it, so I guess you're right. Would a flex cable (those are the flat orange ones right?) be expensive?

I hope you fix it
This is the cable we are having a problem with, i have given my mobile for replacing this stuff as i couldnt get this locally. This board houses the LCD and the digitizer and the buttons connect to this. The black cable goes to the motherboard. Its pretty simple to take apart the phone, but take care while doing so. Another thing its that, when you are opening the display panel, its better to use a guitar pick instead of a screwdriver and open it at the latches, that would avoid damage to the outer plastics.

HI everyone My Xperia Mini Pro worked just fine, then one day the screen remained black after unlocking it... it still worked, i could feel the touch and vibrations, i could basicly do everything just that i wasn't able to see it. After some shaking, pressing, sliding the keyboard out, it came back to its normal state, but would go black again if i pressed it hard and hold...Now the screen is always black. I hadn't really dropped it, it wasn't exposed to high temperatures, it just happened......i took it to some service centers and they have changed the flex cable a few times but didn't work..they assumed it was a hardware issue.....My warranty's long out.....WHAT SHOULD I DO???...Is there a chance that a screen change might help it and what would it cost me? please help

My friend broke his XMP screen bro, and in the service center they charged it too heavy such that he can buy an another device
try flashing stock ics just to check if it is software problem else you have to bear expenses if you cant miss such a good device

I have Xperia z3. When I turning on phone Lcd light on but screen blank. I can heat sound and so on. Digitizer when pressing is working as I hear nose. But screen still blank. | tried few screens but still same. What it can be????
Please help.....
This is the Z3v forum not the Z3 forum.
I would say a screen failure though.
Verizon has open enrollment right now so you can enroll in a insurance plan and get another phone, if yours is out of warranty.
Your Display is dead - Had the same problem.
Everything worked fine just my screen wouldn't show me anything. Ultimately I replaced the display by myself because I didn't have any warranty and now it's working again.
You could try to send it back to your vendor or order a new screen (70-100€) from ebay and replace it yourself.
Good luck!
Hello,
I guess I have the same problem:
I got a Z3 one year ago.
But spontaneously the screen just stayed black.
I can boot the phone, the backlight is working. I wait a little bit but the screen is still black.
BUT I can touch and select camera and take a photo. I know, because I can hear the sound of camera. I can open the dial pad and dial a number, I can hear the different sounds.
The phone is original, have never been opened, no other software.
I already tried with "Xperia Companion" to install latest updates and repair the phone. Nothing worked.

Did a screen replacement solved your problem?
A feedback how the problem was solved would be great because I don't wanna buy an expensive screen if anything else is broken in phone.
