SOD is a known issue on this phone. Way to avoid it, is to never untick optimized backlight if you use "adapt to lightening condition". Untick optimized backlight also make a fake hang at boot. Read forum people posted about it everywhere.

Well,my U20i (x10 Mini Pro) have using a custom Rom for a long time and it is really great....until one day (this post date) my phone turn off by me because I want to conserve the battery,and then when I want to turn it on,it vibrate (with no light) and I can see the LCD displaying a very ultra low light level of screen (same like phone won't boot screen) so I reflash it again using the Rom I like but not work... :'(
I'm now try to recover my phone using Update Service aka SEUS right?And can someone give me other way to fix this problem?Also my accelerometer seems not working/functioning when this problem occur...yesterday everything was great but this day the problem occured...
Have you try the factory reset? Long ago my E10i can't use the WiFi, when i turn it on there's no hotspot detected and after 5 second it turn off automatically, even if i try to flash the ROM again, the problem still occur... Until i do the factory reset, it's working normally again... Just give it a try ,well if you don't mind to lose your apps...

if I understood, your phone boot but the display doesn't turn on.
since seems like this happen since turning the phone on. we can say that for some reason the screen isn't responding. so... you can try to reflash it again and see it that help in something.
the worst could be that the screen got damage in some way.
If i were you,I would reflash stock from via SEUS. And then see what happens. I only hope that it isn't a hardware issue

It sounds to me that your battery was just too low... You turned it off to conserve battery and then when you turned it on it gave you a notification sound...
it does that when it wants to turn off because of low battery...
just let it charge, i don't think it's much of a problem.
Well I flashed a stock Rom and the problem still occur...accelerometer doesn't work and phone display isn't on when boot (but the phone is on,yeah it is on just display have no light)

Woke up this morning & tried to use my phone but no key presses are working..? Ive removed the battery & turned the phone off using force close & when it starts back up I still cant press anything on the lock screen so the phone just stays locked...
Has anyone had this before... Im running a stock rom with a rooted kernel...
were you in a low temperature room? as in really cold? it could be damaged by moisture that's why it's not responding..
Hello all,
I have this new baby. It is really cool, but I have a very embarrassing bug.
I use the official stock ROM.
When the phone is in sleep mode, sometimes when I press button to wake up the phone, the screen is black ( or rarely very very dark, darker then the minimal brightness ). I have to press again like to come to sleep mode, then I press to wake up... Several times until one time is the good one.
I think it comes more often when the phone is in sleep for more than few minutes. And sometimes I can unlock it with no prob, and sometimes paf... the bug again...
I tried to reinitialize the phone ( with factory setting ) but nothing, the problem is still here. I searched on internet, and I don't find people with the same bug ( very strange ).
Hope you could help me. Thanks.

Hello I have the same bug. How can it be solved?
Maybe S-voice is interfering. Try turn off s-voice, see how it goes.

I have two problems in my Samsung Galaxy S3
1- When I open the lock there is a transition of black lines on the screen. The moment I open the lock few black lines appear on the screen for a second. It blinks and then it is back to normal. But when I switch off the power saving mode it doesn't. This problem just starred to appear as there was no such problem before.
2- My battery drains on idle. I charge my phone and within 3 hours it seems to go down to 87 % without any use. The cell standby is what is eating the battery. It takes about 70% of power in cell stand by. I have read on many forums about the it but i don't want to flash my phone to solve that problem.
Please help me to solve my problems.
One backup data and factory reset .
Two check for updates via KIES .
Three Wifi settings turn off always on .
Fails then as you don't want to flash the next step is a service centre .

Are you sure this is not the ripple bug? Is it a dark wallpaper? If so turn off the ripple.

Just about to write a new thread about this problem. I have the exactly same screen problem you are having. I notice the problem since 2nd week I bought the phone. Try factory reset, flash new firmware (from original firmware which I forgot the version > latest stock LH1 > leaked LI8 > LIB), re-flash LI8 once and of course with a full wipe every time I flash. But the same thing happens again. This is so annoying since I found the problem. Try a lot (ripple off, force GPU on, change wallpaper, screen mode, screen tone and everything about screen) still no solution yet.Have to visit Samsung Centre I guess
I think maybe others have this problem too just they didn't notice it. Try turn on power save mode (it doesn't matter you tick the options inside or not, I have try them all), locked or turn off your screen then turn it on. Stare still on the screen to see if you have the black line.

I feel the same that I have to walk in to a samsung service centre. I don't understand how such big phones have these errors and I always have bad luck in terms of mobile phone. I always get a faulty piece or something with some problem or other.
I tried power saving mode and there is no blinking as I have mentioned above but why does it blink on power saving mode ??? My friend too have same phone but he doesn't have an such problem.

Well finally I've found a thread that describes the same bug I'm having.
I confirm this bug. When power saver mode is ON, there's a flickering when you unlock the screen, black lines appear for a second and then disapper, like a screen refresh or something... but this problem is not there when power saver mode is OFF. Weird.. but I just turned it off. Have you guys found another solution?

Turning off the power saving mode is the only solution by now. And I also found the same problem happened when I use camera. It's quite hard to notice because it happens just right after you click the camera icon before the screen changes.

Hi guys
Do you have whatsapp installed?
I had the phone for 5 days now and it ran perfectly for about 3 days.
I used the screen sticker that came with the phone for a while because i didn't have
a screen protector(still not). Then i started installing stuff and whatsapp was installed
then i noticed crappy black horizontal line flicker the screen. Today I had a friend over
and the phone when mad, it booted but then stopped responding, now here's the part where
the black flicker gets fixed. I restored the phone to its default settings and the black was gone
installed whatsapp and droidwall and the flicker came again, it's uninstalled now and the phone
works fine.
Turning off power saving mode didn't work for me, this did

Thank you SOOOOO much, this fixed my problem with the fake hang at boot. I remembered having disabled the optimized backlight, i don't even know what this option is supposed to do
Whatsapp audio file problem still there
Phone call black screen issue gone :laugh:
