hey everyone
i am a noob. i know how to flash roms,kernels,code in the emulators and all but im not that much into the stuff coz i dont know that much
i am in desperate need of help here
my xperia mini pro has been facing a problem since sometime now
its display does not bbot up. the backlight works fine and so does everything else like the vibration and the led. everytime i start the phone there is the familiar vibration of startup my backlit keys also start. after that the screen is turned on but there is no text on it. the sony boot animation does not appear and neither does anything else. i have searched xda but i didnt find any thread like this. yes, there were a few which resembled it but none like this
it started a few months back when the screen would be working fine and sometimes when i would try and wake it up it wouldnt. i would just press the lock button a few more times and it would unlock after that the screen would come on. this started becoming more frequent and later on i had to reboot it . now my phone boots up but the screen is black. the backlight of the screen does turn on but nothing else appears. no boot animation, no text, no lockscreen nothing at all.
i havent thrown this phone on the ground and it hasnt fallen in water. i dont know what to do. please help !!!
Try taking it to repairs. Might be display problem. I myself am facing exact same problem. I'll open it today and will try to fix it. I'll let you know how that goes

umm...it just vibrates
nothing else...it does boot up however
when i use flastool it shows the OS installed and the recovery and all that
i dont think my phone is bricked coz i didnt install any custom OS or anything i just had it rooted and had deleted some of the stock apps such as facebook and all that bloatware sony puts in its phones.
i think , i am sure now that its a problem with the screen+digitizer
just waiting for a reply from Abhinav2

Hi there, I'm new on the forum, so hello to all...
I have the same problem. My mini pro's touch screen start not responding about 1 month ago, and finally, since 2 weeks ago it not respond at all.
I red that can be a sw problem and you have to change the rom to solve it.

And also install rom for xperia Active and so on..
With cynogen 9 &10 it start up but the touchscreen doesn't work, with other roms (like the AROMA) they fish the installation, but the screen is always balck. But the tlephone is on, because if you press buttons it react.
(for install cyno I followed this tutorial http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_mango)

first this isnt the place for this threat
second that problem its cause u installed some theme, or mod, or the color icons mod... uninstall it or just restore the last backup cheers =D
maybe installing again the update4.0.4 can help
You installed the green icon set. Remove that one and you be fine. Nex time do not start a tread about bugs because then this forum will be very large
My apologies !
Working fine now. Thanks !
Hi! I've an issue on my xperia mini pro.
More than often the back key (which is a touch sensitive key) stops working.
I can't resolve this definitely. Things I tried:
- reset settings (does not work)
- total reset (works for a couple of weeks than the problem comes back)
- killing services with android system cleaner (works sometimes, I see that maybe is related to the process "Home of sony ericsson" -the stock launcher v2.1.x)
- switched to go launcher ex (worked for a full day, the problem came back)
- prevent various apps and services to startup (did not work)
- remove various apps and services (didn't work)
- update firmware to 2.3.4 (only solved the problem of the black screen that won't unlock)
what in the world should I do to fix this tedious issue?
tnx for answers, forgive me for my spaghetti english

Rom is pre-rooted, you will need to unlock bootloader and flash a different kernel.
Hardware keyboard will not be working, you'll need to get the files from the CM7 stable build for this.
I would not endorse going down this route unless you want to be running CM7 anyway, and there is no guarantee it will help.

thank you! You're right: I don't want to flash the previous version just to set up cm7! Not cause I don't like it but because with the previous version of the stock kernel I was having a much more big problem: the black screen (some others had the same problem).
Maybe I'll go on this way, waiting for ICS hoping it'll fix up everything!
btw, how's my english?
Maybe u r sweating or ur finger is kinda wet when u press it,our phone is unresponsive to fluid,except u buy an active
xperia mini pro! not active!
that would be true for the settings key too!
I think is a sort of bug of the rom... I'm getting it very often! damn!
I noticed that sometimes the screen light "shakes", like a vibration, and so the lights behing the touch keys...
the light sensor reacts to reflections of the light and shadows I make when using the phone. This is a minor thing but the back key sometimes makes really hard using the phone!

Means you are probably missing your keystr file. The fix has been discussed dozens of times already. Please search for this. FYI, you will need root to implement the fix.
thanks man....u mean to say that i should prefer rooting my galaxy s2 ics 4.0.3....ok then .... but the FYI code for fixing these didnt work without rooting....hope it works after rooting

You didn't search the right thing. I said your keystr file is missing. You didn't mention a keystr file anywhere there.
Google this: "site:forum.xda-developers.com i9100 ics keystr"
