Hi
This is what happened
Friday i took the phone out of my pocket and i noticed the screen was similar to a TV when showing no channel (white with a mix of colors)
i thougth that i broke the screen, but i didnt saw any crack nor nothing.
I tested to unlock the screen, and it felt (vibration) and sounded everything was ok, but still the same screen
I rebooted the phone with the same results
I tried connecting the phone to the PC (windows 7) and windows detected a USB device, but i was never able to connect to the phone memory (photos, songs, etc)
Last thing i tryed was to enter the recovery menu, screen changed like the photo was splited and i was able to see a red Admiration picture in the recovery menu
My phone is not rooted nor anything
I saw the Thread of the project to recover briked phones, but i never got the linux to detect my device
:'( I need help
split screen

Sorry to hear about your phone.
See if you can get a photo, maybe using another friend's phone, of what your screen looks like when you go to recovery and get a "split screen and Admiration mark."
hey guys : )
im quite a beginner considering anything about configurating my smartphone... Yesterday i did watch a video with the youtube app and then my display suddenly froze and became black. Since then everytime I push the power button the screens keeps black but you can notice that its getting a little bit brighter. So it's basicly still active but I dont know how to fix the problem. the only thing I tried so far is to reboot (10s power button + volume up) but it didnt change anything. When i plug it onto my pc it gets recognized instantly.
Could anyone of you tell me how to fix my problem?
greetings
Hi i hope everyone is doing great today.
I brought this device a few weeks and worked pretty good. I havent used it for like 2 weeks it was always on sleep mode because i havent turn the tv on for 2 weeks. (it shows like a red light which is sleep mode on the device)
I switch the tv on and then the device with the remote control. It turn on blue indicating it is now on. But for a reason i cant seem to find it the android page on the screen.. it usually just click HDMI1 Or HDMI2 on the tv... like it worked all the times but now i cant see nothing no apps nothing. It has the device on and even if i tried to restart and unpluged and take out the HDMI cable off and back on the device will remain blue as in turn on at straight up even when i plug the cable back in.
So is there a way to fix this or a restart ? i dont no what happenend to the device or what is going on.
Not an issue with the tv...dvd player works... tv works... channels working. But the device shows a blank screen. i tru press the turn off button on the remote control but nothing does to it because there is a blank black screen on tv. I have the device unplug from the wall but even if i turn the power on the back wall the device will always show blue as in its on it is no longer sleep mode.... But still dont see anything on the tv screen for the device to the area which i normally watch. I checked the cables everything seems fine.
The small device has no reset or buttons.. you just have to relie on the remote control instead.
What happened to the device i have no idea... its just shows the device has a blue light at it. When its blue this means the device is turn on.
Since i haven't used the device for 2 weeks it was always on red colour on the device which means (the device is on sleep mode) because im not watching tv)
So what can i do? what do you think what is wrong? Nothing shows on the tv screen for it. But the device has now kept itself on blue light which means its always now ON if i plug the cables... it wont go to sleep mode or anything as in red light but nothing i can do because i dont see anything on the tv screen for this android device
Can you help? thank you

The devie was working pretty much fine and new and worked. When not watching the device went red color mode. But when i turn the device on with the remote control it went blue which emans i have just turn on the device. But i dont see nothing on screen no way for me to restart or anything because theres nothing on the screen on display. Just a blank screen. And no no one has touched the tv what so ever.
I have the same problem. Any solutions yet?
try this, it could be the power issue. unplug the power adapter cable from the device and use the USB port and USB cable for supplying power to the device.
Same issue second box now just frozen tried reset unplugging etc
Hi, i wanna ask a few questions about my old phone. It was working and i had dropped it. in that minute a car just went over it. It was touchable but display is very messed. I had saw the main screen and i could touch it. After that i just removed my sim and tried to restart phone but it never did restart. i could enter the twrp and take all my files to pc. after some time it's screen went black. Now i can enter to download mode, i can confirm that but nothing more because of black screen.
And my question;
1. How can i be sure if i change the screen it will work again?
2. I don't want to buy a screen, is there way to use it without a screen? ( with a monitor, tv etc.). i can use a mouse and keyboard with otg but how to transfer display to another device? ( new screen costs too much ) ( i know mhl not supported)
3. is there another phone which is cheaper and screen fits to s6 edge connector?
4. Any other ideas?
Hi all,
I got this Xperia M5 that's been giving out warnings about memory being full and I suppose it finally gave in. It only partially boots after like a full minute of showing you those blue waves. When it 'boots' the screen is black and nothing works, except you can see the status bar with just the battery icon, no-SIM icon and the clock.
Weird thing is when the device is powered off, you can press the power button once and it'll display a large battery indicator which shows the percentage normally-- I've seen this go up from 0 to over 90 something incrementally.
But when it's 'on' the way I just described, the battery is always at 0% with a red ! next to it.
Anyway, when it's in this weird half-life mode, you can actually pull down the notification bar normally, and tap stuff as well. Flashlight works, you can see an actual WiFi list (nothing happens when you connect) etc. When you launch stuff through here though, like settings, it won't open anything. It'll make the sound as if it's launched something but the remainder of the screen will still be black.
Using the dedicated camera button, I can access the camera. It works (sort of), meaning you can see the camera display where the screen used to be black. And it immediately says "system process is not responding," so I'm guessing this is a system issue where it can't load basic stuff like the homescreen?
Whatever you do or don't do, it stops responding after a couple minutes and shuts itself off.
Stuff I've already tried:
- Safe mode (volume down + power), just 'boots normally'
- Recovery mode (volume up + power) done that for over two minutes, does nothing or just 'boots normally'
- Hold down the tiny yellow 'off' button under the SIM/SD cover, did nothing.
- Xperia Companion: PC won't recognize the phone either in that zombie state, or when it's off, so I tried 'device cannot be detected', shut phone down, held down volume down button, connected USB still holding down, waited for a while and viola, nothing happened.
It's factory OS, never messed around with it and I don't know the version (could be 5?).
Any ideas?
Guys at this point all I'm wondering is if anyone ever managed to brick a phone that's as semi-responsive as this one, in the history of bricked android phones anywhere.. I mean how could it be bricked when you can (sort of) boot and even open the camera?
you said it boots in download mode?

No I wouldn't say download, it's weird-- there's the status bar at the top and soft navigation keys at the bottom, but the homescreen in between these is black. I tried tapping this black area to see if stuff is there logically but you just can't see them, but there was no interaction, no sound or anything.
I am able to pull down the status bar to reveal the usual buttons and such, like I mentioned before you can turn on the flashlight, click to see a list of available wifis etc. But you can't access settings through here, I mean you tap settings and the main part of the screen is still black.
The only way to get the screen to work is to open the camera through its dedicated button, where the camera display works normally, you can switch cameras etc. Tried accessing the gallery through here but it didn't work.
I just don't wanna buy a new phone when this one doesn't seem bricked at all. If it like didn't respond at all and nothing appeared on the screen I wouldn't think twice before buying the first phone I see on Google.
im afraid that you have to flash stock rom again if you will boot into download/fastboot mode.but your problem seems strange.what was the last thing you have done before phone stuck like this?

Not my phone but it'd been going on about low memory for a while now. I got the PC to recognize it once in that zombie state, so I'll try that with Companion if I can get it to half-boot again. I'll post updates if anything happens.
