Hey guys, so I had dropped my phone and shattered the screen on the top left and there was a crack down the middle. Anyways, I ordered a replacement and replaced it..and low and behold, either I did a bad job or somethings up with the ribbon from the replacement screen. When I turn it on, the screen will display this weird static and I can see the mikmik splash screen (Newts RLS6.0), then it'll go black. I guess once the phone goes into sleep mode I can turn the screen back on with no problems. But, here's my main problem..I can't get into amon ra without the screen completely being messed up. I'm a flashaholic and this is terrible for me. Does anyone know how to fix the problem itself, or is there a way I can flash ROMs through PC? (S-Off). Thank you guys in advance

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.
Hi,
I got a HTC Legend with a broken screen and digitizer.
I replaced the screen and digitizer without any problems.
I turned on the phone, and the screen went on and showed the android boot screen.
30 seconds later the screen went blank, and now it doesn't work.
It's like the screen displays white/black pixels every second ribbon
The phone still turns on and plays the "startup sound".
I have cheched the ribbon cables, but they all seem fine.
Is the screen broken or is it something else?
Any suggestions to what the problem is?
Thank you for your time
My Legend screen was cracked a few days ago after the phone fell, I was looking to get a new screen as well. Where did you get your replacement screen from? It looks like you got a faulty screen based on what you've said.
Hi,
I dropped my Galaxy S2 Yesterday (have no idea if this relates to it) But i plugged it into the charger this morning and everything was blue & some of the screen had turned black and some icons had burnt into the screen it looked like.
After taking it with me because it was still usable, Its not completely black except for maybe the faintest part of blue.
Im running Lite'ning rom, The newest one im pretty sure.
Just wondering if this is a virus? Or the screen is dead. I just cant see how it could suddenly die when it was flat and not turned on.
Phones not under warranty by the way. So maybe you could give me some options?
Thanks heaps guys
Probably the problem is hardware related due to the fall, but you could back all your data and try to do a factory reset to see if it fixes or not. If it doesn't fix maybe you should check your screen hardware.
Thanks for the reply,
I just reflashed Litening with Odin 1.85 and still nothing, I get the vibrations, touch lights, sound ect, But only occasionally a tiny little strip of blue along the top.
How would i check my screen hardware? Because i pulled apart my galaxy s after it died and accidently cracked the screen & Glass
How would i do a factory reset by the way? Since i cant see anything
I'd imagine it's dead. I'd take it to your local store and ask for an estimate on how much it would cost to fix it. If you can't see anything, then the screen is either broken or it got disconnected (or maybe some of the ribbons did at least).
Yeah, I just dont really wanna take the phone apart unless i know its likley to fix it.
When i first got it, I noticed it had black splotches on the screen in very dim light on a white background. Nd im guessing id have to almost buy a whole front screen assembly to replace the front screen D:.
Would i be better just to sell the phone how it is? Or repair it?
Hi I recently dropped my T-Mobile HD2 in a puddle of water very briefly i took the cover off and battery right after it happened and wiped everything down. The phone worked flawlessly for about 6 hours then I finally got a black screen. The phone will turn on boot into android(2.3 NAND) and the touch screen works plus im able to recieve calls and messages BUT the only way to tell is to use a bright flashlight to see the screen as I have NO BACKLIGHT. Help me please?
You have probably dead light emission layer. By all means, LCD is to be replaced.
You shouldn't turn phone on immediately after accident. Removing battery immediately, complete disassemble of every possible piece and letting it rest for 2-3 days in warm dry place is a proper way to do this. Next time of course.
So just replace the LCD? Should I order a digitizer with it? Thanks in advance.
Hello everyone. A few months ago, my phone screen broke, and I replaced it. Ever since then, my digitizer has been funky. When I turn my phone on the top half of the screen is static and the bottom half is black. It shows a bunch of moving parts (the boot animation) then goes black. It also prohibits me from using Amon Ra which is my favorite recovery because the whole thing is static. When I press the power button after the boot animation, my homescreen is on & my phone is fine. I broke my screen again (don't judge me lol I see you looking at me with that face ) and instead of putting ANOTHER screen on, I bought both the screen and digitizer already put together. So last night I lost all touch capabilities of my digitizer, when I did swype it did the mark of satan by itself (possessed rezound?) and overall was just terrible. I opened it up, cleaned up the ribbon, put it back, and 95% of touch worked. Did the same thing today and 100% works, however, I still get the weird static-turn-on thing. I assume it's the ribbon port for the digitizer..so my question is, is it possible to clean that? I was thinking with a really soft toothbrush w/ alcohol on it but I don't wanna ruin my phone for good. Thanks in advance

Use what i do for computers. Take a new pencil, never used eraser, and use the eraser to clean the connectors. take q-tip with alcohol. brush across it, and fan it dry. about 2 minutes is good. Alcohol dries pretty quick. Hopefully this works for you.
I have been having some problems as well. I replaced the digitizer myself and the phone boots up completely fine and normal. I just have some "dead" spots on the digitizer which I cannot seem to calibrate. I have tried apps and everything. Is there anything I can flash through recovery?
Has anyone come up with a fix for this?
Thanks in advance.
