[Resolved] Replaced Screen - Backlight is on but no display - Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers

Replaced the screen yesterday and don't think I've done any other HW damage but on powering back on the phone makes all the right noises but doesn't display anything.
Backlight is on too.
Is it possible it's a faulty screen?

Have you flashed a rom?

You have to flash new rom marked as "dx_2" or "dx_1" if I recall corectly. Search in elephone forum, rom section.
There are 2 SKUs for screens, they need proper rom.

No, I haven't flashed this phone since I bought it. Will I be able to reflash without being able to see the screen.

Have tried to find a ROM mentioning dx_2 or dx_1 but can't find anything. I'd appreciate a recommendation if there is one.

From official elephone forum, this rom supposed to be "dx_2" http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-10832-1-3.html.
If you already flashed newer rom, then you should flash this one with "Firmware Upgrade" option.
Good luck.

Thanks, Tried that one but it didn't work. Got sent another link by the screen supplier and it's thankfully now working.

I wanted to install it, but in the baseband section my baseband was marked bad.So i didn't install it .Thanks for the help!
Like many others, I've followed the tutorial at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190 but have ended-up with a loop.
In my case I cannot find the Samsung ROM for the Canadian version ( I5500MUGJJ7 ) as can be seen here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13958293&postcount=1 I'm not the only one.
End result is I've bricked my phone I think (but hoping NOT).
I don't think by following that tutorial I made a backup so I don't think I can restore - or CAN I?
Can anyone help me out - THNKS

You need to install your default original samsung rom that you have the first time you got the phone.Install it and it should work fine.I did that.

Thank you for replying.
That's the point, I don't have the original ROM. I was following the tutorial and had NOT realised I wasn't making a backup and I don't think the original author even realized the it would happen that the Canadian ROM would be one of the very few which couldn't be found if things got screwed-up.

First try to get on the tutorial, from this sequence:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190
1.1 We need to install a boot-loader as the Samsung one is very limited and just plain awful! That said, it wasn’t intended to be used for anything other than the Samsung software so it’s not awful from their point of view but it’s pretty unfriendly to us.
To this
2.4 If you are new to use ClockworkMod recovery manager then before doing anything, please have a look at next screen to learn the navigation keys.
If this works, than we will talk what to do next.
Try different official rom, maybe it will work, you don't have anything to lose.

I don't think it's actually the ROM which is the problem but the "baseband". Twice I followed the tutorial and everything worked until it came time to restart the phone. At which time it went into the loop.
I have unlocked G5 and it is not Virgin Mobile - what now!
Thanks

Hmm try searching for a "fastboot" method, i really don't know what should be a problem, im not an expert in this :/.Ill try to help you tomorrow again .
Is there such a thing as a fastboot for the Galaxy 5 i5500
I'm getting a little mixed-up and feeling a bit MORE stupid - what's the difference between the ROM and the baseband. Can one copy ROM or baseband from a working phone onto another?
Thanks

Yeah. Actually, you don't need to flash the whole ROM, only the file that you modified (of course, if you don't have the file, or your device isn't rooted, you need to flash the whole rom anyway).

Try another firmware, seems like you have not used the correct one (as far I know, the US version doesn't have a physical home button, so you have the international version).

I don't think so, the worst that can happen is a buggy device (as it right now xD). You will mess up your device if flash a rom for a completely different device.
Try any international rom from the same thread where you taked the US version (the ROM will have various languages anyway).
Which rom?

[Q] Need help! Samsung I9300 wifi refuses to work - new rom? new kernel? please help!

The wifi on my Samsung S3 GT-I9300 device won't work. It just toggles on/off/on/off when I attempt to turn it on. I purchased the phone with the following already installed on it:
CWM
SuperSU
Android Version 4.2.2
Kernel Version - (says here in the about screen) 3.0.31-611730
Build number - Omega v45 - XXUFME3
I've done a LOT of searching here on XDA but I just find myself lost in a world of information. I found a video on youtube, but it's for the S4 and doesn't offer links to the correct files for the S3. Some have told me flash a new ROM and other a new Kernel, but because of version numbers, and not wanting to brick this phone... i'm not sure where to start...
Please would someone be willing to help me out? I am living in Honduras and the service I use is prepay here.. wifi is a HUGE money savings for me here. Many thanks to whoever is willing...
If it is an i9300 then download a stock firmware from sammobile that will work in your country (3G signal). Follow the guide in general forum on how to flash. Factory reset in recovery before first boot.
Test wifi before you install or restore anything, if still the same then it's a hardware fault.

Unexpected end of file means you have a corrupt download. Just download the firmware file again. If all else fails, look for a post in the S3 General thread regarding a complete back to stock method.

Wifi is related to kernel if you have changed roms ( which also changes kernel) then most likely it is hardware fault you could try flashing just a custom kernel and if the problem is still there then it is most likely hardware issue.

Yikes. Two words I was definitely hoping it was not.
Well.. I suppose it couldn't hurt to attempt a custom kernel, so the next question would be... any advice on which kernel I should attempt, and how exactly do I flash a kernel?

You need a custom recovery(Philz touch), flash it through odin. Than download googymax2 and copy it to your sd card. Than enter in recovery mode and flash the kernel.

Maybe a clean new install of your rom? In philz touch recovery select "clean to install a new rom". than install it. after that, wipe cache and dalvik cache

Needing this as well. BTW, is your device Boost Mobile? And also, you have TWRP for Recovery as well.
Yea its Boost. I still have the phone but dont use it much anymore. I got tired of the sluggishness and did some research on upgrading. Ended up buying the LG X Power cause it seemed the best one for the money in terms of cpu/gpu/ram/storage. Love the phone, but cant root it yet it seems
Add me to the list of people who would be grateful if someone had this and could upload it.
If u have Boost try and save 70 bucks and get the X Power, its well worth it!

s9+ International - How to Fix SIM Network PIN Blocked/Enter SIM Network PUK

Folks,
I need help in a big way. I rooted my s9+ International several months ago and had the Renovate Ice Rom on it. It was working fine but I wanted to try out a different rom. The title of my post says it all. Since loading the other rom I have not been able to get it to recognize my T-Mo sim card (tried a new one also) to make/receive calls or texts. I can access the internet just fine. I've done everything that I could think of from doing a factory reset several times to flashing the original stock rom several times, trying 2 internet services in an attempt to "unlock" it. T-Mo is obviously no help and even after flashing the stock rom twice, I sent it to Samsung Singapore thinking that they could help but they want to charge $400 to put in a new motherboard which I declined. It's on it's way back to me.
Any and all suggestions will be greatly welcomed as I've reverted to using my LG V20 for the time being. I paid $1,000 for the s9+! This is the 1st time in years of flashing rom's that I've had this issue and may never flash another rom again due to this.
Help......please.

I looked through his entire thread, even saw some of your postings and couldn't find any mention of my issue. Mind pointing me to the exact place in his tread? Btw, I had his software on my phone prior to this coming up and it worked perfectly.
I'd appreciate it.
Flash the devbase rom. You most likely flashed the detonator mod and that can mess with returning to stock. Also follow the advice others gave and look in tek's thread. Easy solution for me when this happened was to clean flash devbase and go from there.

I'm currently on the stock rom after 2 factory resets then flashing the stock rom twice. I did have tek's mod on it "prior" to the above. Wouldn't all of the above have wiped his mod off the phone completely leaving nothing to uninstall?
I've done nothing to it since all of the above so supposedly it's a clean phone at this point. So based on that info., what would you suggest?
AND, thank you for the response as perhaps you and ddloco are on the right track....

Did my response make sense? Wouldn't all of the wiping have gotten rid of tek's mod?

Wiping doesn't eliminate it. You have to properly restore or flash with a rom that overwrites the mod.

Are you saying that I should root again and flash either a stock or another rom and that overwrites/deletes his mod? And doing so "may" fix that issue?

Flashing devbase rom has fixed it for me previously. After you flash it make a nandroid and save it in a safe place.

By devbase you mean any rom other than a stock one right? And thanks for your time as well in helping me with this.

The rom by alexandr in this forum. Install twrp and flash his rom. Boot up and hopefully your phone works. I ran into a similar problem right after I got my S9+.

As you're vouching for his rom, I'll root and install twrp again and flash his rom. Did you flash tek's mod afterwards as well if you're still on T-Mobile?
I'll get my phone back from Samsung Singapore this week and give it a shot. If it works, how do I get a "donation" to you?
Either way, thanks again for the help.
I can vouch for his rom cause I've run every one of them. If your getting it back from Samsung see if it works fine first. I don't need any donations. Give it to a charity of your choosing if you want. Yes I'm running teks mod on TMobile now. Having volte is a godsend on TMobile as I get to many dropped calls on 2g and hspa.

Samsung told me that they would have to charge me $400 to replace the motherboard (yes you read that right) as a fix which I obviously declined. As soon as it's back, I'll try starting from scratch again via rooting, etc. as you've confirmed about. And I'll let you know 1 way or the other as to the outcome.
Your time is definitely appreciated.... Sabresfan.
