I powered on my transformer prime one day to find out it had a black screen. The sound and hdmi work, and the tablet vibrates on boot and is receiving the gmail/facebook updates cause i can hear it beep and vibrate. I sent it to ASUS for repair and they wanted a ungodly amount to fix the problem which they said was a bad lcd screen. So i decided to order a new lcd and replace myself. Well after replacing the LCD screen it turned out that the problem still exists and highly doubt ASUS diagnosed the problem correctly in the beginning.
My question is what else could the problem be? I would like to order whatever part i need and finally fix this thing for good.

please help me with this problem.
my tablet's 40 pin connector is damaged, because my brother just messed with it during charging and he just broke it, so the prime is not charging anymore. However, and to make things worse, the screen of the tablet just went black. You can hear and sense it is working but the screen is just black.
During my attempts to fix the connector, several times I was lucky to get it working and when i connect the tablet to the electricity, the screen turns ON normally. But when working on Battery, the screen is BLACK (DEAD!!!).
However, NOW I cannot charge the tablet (I think the connector is totally damaged), the screen is dead and the tablet is just lying there on my table and waiting for its burial.
can you give advice on the reason of all my problems and the possibility that I can fix them by myself, since I live in a country where we don't have ASUS support service.
Thanks

I would search the forum, there have been a few people that had this issue. I am not sure how they fixed it or if they did but others have had the same problem....
Hello all,
First of all I hope I am writing in the correct section... Otherwise please let me know.
Secondly: Something really strange is happening to my Galaxy S2.
Last year, the glass broke on the street and I changed it manually by buying one from eBay and following video instrctions. This year the touch and AMOLED part of the screen cracked (I don't even know how). This time I decided to buy a Galaxy S4, as I didn't want to "invest" anymore on the 2-year old smartphone, but I kept it. Later this year I decided to fix the S2 one again, and so I ordered a replacement screen (which costed a whopping $105!!!) and changed it. To my surprise, although I checked all the motherboard connections more than twice, the phone turns on, the Welcome Screen (configuration for first time usage screen) appears, but... The screen is unresponsive and I also can't change the volume nor turn the screen off by pressing the lock/power button.
If someone knows something about this problem or how to fix it, I would appreciate a comment with information regarding it to be able to understand what is happening.
Thanks in advance!
B.S.: I don't know if this information has anything to do with the problem, but the first screen I bought wasn't original, as it didn't have the Samsung logo on the ribbon cable, while the new one is original and the Samsung logo appears on the ribbon connector. I wonder: Is this a factory failure?

Hello everyone.
I have a problem with my smartphone Sony Xperia Z2. I dropped it and the display broke. I bought a new display. When I connect he went crazy. He began to open the application, clicking like 10 fingers working on it simultaneously. Because I thought that the display is faulty, I've exchanged for a new one. But now even bigger problem. When I turn on him, he does not show anything on the screen except the backlight. Do you know what the problem is and whether anyone had a similar problem? So, when the smartphone turns on, lights up only the backlight but nothing on the screen showing a. At first, there is a lot of vertical lines on display, and once he just fade out, and from that moment display is blank only backlight working. I try to update software, but nothing change. Restarting, and turning off also nothing.
Please help me solve this, for me very frustrating problem.
anyone?

Did you ever get this resolved?
I had this issue after a screen replacement for a shattered screen. I was sure I had damaged something in the process (ribbon flex cable, motherboard, etc). Turns out the replacement screen was faulty. A new working screen solved the issue.
Hello!
My phone fell from a high place some weeks ago and the screen shattered. Touch was unresponsive, clicking everywehere, but LCD was fine, i could see everything on screen normally.
Ordered a new screen. Changed it, but when I turned it on, only backlight of the LCD was visible, but it was displaying nothing. I thought it was a defective screen (either way, it was, lots of stuck pixels), sent it back and bought another from the same seller. When I changed it and turned it on, again, no video output, lcd would light on but woundn't display nothing on screen. Googled a bit, found out it could be a defective fuse on the motherboard, and that soldering it again would solve. I know nothing about this kind of stuff, so I picked up a tweezers and apllied a little force on every fuse, because I thougth that way I could try to solve it. Well, it worked, kinda. I put the screen above that blue plastic glue only for testing, and it worked, I felt reliefed for seeing sony boot logo again. Figuring out it had worked, i took out the screen, took out the blue plastic, and glued the screen back on. For my surprise, it had the same problem as before, and it doesn't matter what I do now, it wont work anymore, only displays a black backlight with no video.
Could anyone help me out with this? Give me a hint of why it worked once but not anymore. Could it be there's really a defective fuse, or it was just a coincidence that it worked after it had force apllied? Also, the Screen flex is kinda loose, it keeps coming off all the time, and it's really hard to plug it to the LCD sometimes, is it supposed to be like that, or could it be the culprit? Also, touch is working normally, i can't see nothing on screen but i can click and feel it vibrating.
It's kind of a big text, but that's the way I could explain it. Sorry for the bad english, it's not my native language.
And thanks in advance if anyone can help!
(UPDATE: Here is a link to a short video of my issue: https://youtu.be/YqKW3tU4Fhw)
So I cant seem to find ANY info relating to this issue aside from results for the LG G4, but the solutions for said phone are all over the place. Some are bad screen, some are related to sim tray, some are related to water damage and battery etc. So basically, about a month after buying this phone (KIW-L24 US version), the screen started to artifact and flash in and out randomly. There is nothing that seems to trigger it. I have set the phone down on a table while on the homescreen and watched the lightshow. It is basically a mixture of the problems seen in these videos (Feat. LG G4).
https://youtu.be/gAUkXLR7eQI And https://youtu.be/QstOH66pfiU.
Symptoms:
Screen will randomly start to flicker and fade in and out. I will also get crazy artifacting lines. (Think de-gaussing an old CRT monitor or simillar to what is seen in the second video)
If i see the problems happening, locking the phone and unlocking again will sometimes fix it temporarily. Other times the problem continues after i turn the screen back on.
Sometimes the screen will refuse to come back on. The backlight turns on, and the digitizer responds, but the screen is still black. Making sure the screen really is off, I can come back to the phone a few minutes later and it will turn on. Other times ill have to hard reset the phone (hold power button 10 sec) and it usually brings the screen back to life.
Background:
I bought the phone "used - Like New" from amazon. It came with all the original accessories and even still had the film protector on the back of the phone. I may have noticed these problems after I received the phone, but they really only started to show about a month after purchase.
At first I though it could be software related as I was running CM13 and something could have been corrupted, so i did not just a factory restore, but a full reflash. This didn't solve the issue. Restarting my phone and the reflash did help, but the problem returned. The inability to turn the screen on persists through a reset and I have to wait till the phone boots again to get the screen back. Sometimes takes more than one reboot. This pretty much confirms a hardware issue right? If i put the phone on a black screen, i can see three small fuzzy "dots" in a triangle shape in the top left quadrant. Could the screen have been damaged by whoever owned it before returning it? They are not dead pixels per se, but seems more like areas where the backlight is showing through ever so slightly more. Not visible unless you are on a black screen in a dark room. Ill upload a video showing some of the issues. Any help is appreciated!
im afraid you need a new display brodar...
Seems to be hardware issue. You can visit the nearest service center to get it fixed for few bucks if you don't have warranty.
Yeah that's what i figured, i just needed conformation. I was able to get amazon to take the return even though I was out of the return period. So at least ill be able to get a refund. Ill just pay the extra for a new one this time haha.
One question : Do u have over heat problem with ur phone ?? If u feel ur phone is more than work from the back dont replace . U'll damage the new screen also . Some ppl erported over heat cpu issue with honor ! ;.

Try moving to stock once , if it fixed stick to it for few days . 99% of possible cases for hardware issue .
So better request for a replacement from huawei . but don't mention them that u bought it used . tell them u bought it new
