hmmm sounds like your display TLCD screen is dead and or not making
connection .. I don't think any ROM is going to fix that.. you may need to
take it in for service ..
If I understand you correctly.. You do not see anything on the screen
even when “flashing” or after a Hard/soft reset?
Hmm hold down your power-button for 8-10 second, if you heard a beep
And still can’t see anything on the screen, your Phone is booted up fine
and working but your screen or screen connection is dead!!

Take you battery out and then press the camera and power at the same time and then put the battery back in....
Your phone should go in to the boot loader if not the phone need to go in for repair
Same exact thing happened to my phone. I sent it in to HTC and they were really cool about repairing it. All I had to pay for was shipping which was nice because I am not the original buyer of the phone and I'm out of warranty.
that's what i might do is just send it in..
does anyone have the htc number i can call?
i bought the phone off from ebay and the warranty verizon told me ends june 2009..they said they cant do anything since i have it flashed to cricket..
but i know its stuck in the screen after you flash it to a new rom because i can hear it beep and that's when you configure the setting.
Call this number 1-866-449-8358 and tell them your problem. They'll give you the number for the repair center. Call repair center and they'll tell you how to go about sending it in. I don't know what they'll do if yu have a custom ROM on it, when I sent mine in it had a stock one on it.

[Q] Galaxy S2 Touch Screen isn't working bottom buttons are responsive?? Help!

Hi everyone, hope you can help me beacause im at my witts end.
In the last year, my galaxy s2's screen has occasionally stopped responding, the os was still running and everything so it wasnt frozen, my touch screen just simply stopped working. Only way to fix it was to hit the back of the phone and do a battery reset. This issue started poping up more and more, and now it won't respond.
Some info you might want to know:
Model: GT-I9100M
Age:~2 1/2 years old
No custom roms/kernels have ever been installed, has always run off the stock.
Never been dropped or had water on it (I took very good care of it)
The nav bar at the bottom (back/search/options/menue) and hardware buttons all work. Everything above the screen no longer works.
What iv done:
Iv reset the phone, did a bettery pull for the night, fully charged it, looked at the board and checked all the connections (all good). Would flashing a custom rom/kernel be something to try next? I read in a forum that someone had a similar issue to me and did that, but it didnt help.
Has anyone had a similar issue with their touchscreen? Why would the bottom nav bar work but no the rest of the screen? Could it be locked somehow? If it is.. how would I unlock it?
Thanks alot guys..

[Q] Touch screen does not respond

Hello there. 3 days ago i bought used Galaxy S2. Everything was good untill now. Ive got an sms message and i wanted to check it soni unlocked my screen and suddenly my screen went crazy. It starts to "touch himself"(that sounds bad) and i couldn't do anything. Only locking and unlocking the screen was a solution. Now it happens even more often. I reinstalled android already, wiped data and cache and still nothing. Probably the solution is to change digitalizer or something but i just want to know: What is causing this issue? Thanks for any helpful ideas and tips. Cheers

I don't know if it's broke or...

Greetings,
I'm new in this Forum. I have been searching all around internet about my problem and couldn't find any solution, so I'm here calling for help from you.
My problem is quite simple to describe. I have my old friend's phone, who left it at my house 6 months ago. Now that my friend is gone, I'm trying to fix this phone.
The issue is that it has a Power Button broken (I can't start it on) so I have to plug it, but once done it can't go beyond the logo, then it keeps restarting again and again and again until I remove the battery. At this point, I told myself that I only have to do a factory reset and flash it, but then after installing the drivers, getting the firmware ready and stuff, when booting the phone to the flashboot mode, it keep restarting again and again and again...
Is there anyway to fix this? Or does it mean that the phone is gone?
