LCD screen will not turn back on after it is turned off - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

So I have had this pretty serious problem going on with my LCD screen. This problem started happening after I flashed a new ROM (I think).
My LCD screen is working fine, however, after I turn the LCD screen off for the first time after rebooting (by putting it to sleep by using the power button or any other method) the screen will then never come back on. I know the phone is still on because after I press the power button to wake it back up I can still press buttons on the phone and I can hear noise from the phone like I normally would. The phone is on, the LCD just will NOT come back on no matter what I do.
Another weird thing I have noticed is that when I go to adjust the brightness of the phone it does not change the brightness at all even though I am adjusting the slider on the phone.
I have tried about 4 different ROMS (including stock) and they all have the same problem. I tried disabling the light sensor through the advanced configuration tool, but that did not work either.
Does anyone have any clue how to solve this? Thank you.

there was another post about the same issue a couple of days ago, if it wasn't for that i would of said there is a problem with your screen. Go to this thread and read the last post.

XDA Orbit Screen Problem

Hi Guys.
I've had my orbit for about 3 weeks now, and its been perfect. I had a spare 512mb microSD card lying about so I used that, but my 2Gb microSD card came in the post yesterday.
I put the card into the phone, and then plugged the phone into my computer via USB. The screen turned off, and no matter what I did, it wouldn't come back on.
I reset it using the small button on the side (sticking my stylex pen into it) and it restarted itself, showing the splash screen no problem, but as soon as you would expect the Today screen to show, the screen goes off. It get's weirder, because if I hold down the camera button to turn that on, the screen switches itself on, and you can use the camera no problem. If i hit the windows key, the menu appears, but if I try clicking an icon, the screen goes dead again.
Also, sometimes (not always, don't ask why) if I leave it for a couple of minutes, the screen slowly appears, as if the backlight is very very dim. But the second i tap anywhere, or touch a button, it goes off again.
I can still answer calls, and my alarms still go off. The phone seems to work perfectly, but just not the screen. I think that it might be the backlight having been turned so far down its off, but I don't know how I would go about reseting that.
Sorry for the long story, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
have you tried to make a hard reset?
Man I had the exact sane issue. Its to do with the backlight. I had to angle the screen to try and see anything on it, then changed the backlight to full and made sure it didnt switch off after certain time, everything fine since then. dont know how it happened.
exactly like fubofo wrote,try to unplug,screen should be visible again, check backlight prop.-and plug it in.
i have the same problem this appears sometimes.I think this is a damn bug that appears randomized.It happend to me like 6 times.I have the o2 xda orbit with german o2 rom.What's about yours? it dims the light under the normal makeable settings this sucks.And the camera works because the light settings goes automaticly to the highest settings in camera mode.
Hi guys,
I remember having that problem but it was when I tried some programs, including HTC X-button and another called Invisible Shooter. I haven't got any further incident after uninstalling them.
Do you think what you've encountered with may also link to some program you've installed?

Totally confirmed! Had same issue after replacing a touch screen. Thanks, guys, for a clue!

TP2 Is On But Screen Black? Help!

I'm wondering if anyone has found a fix for this. I have a Verizon TP2, and yesterday the screen wouldn't come on. I can put the volume up and down (and hear the volume tones), press the hardkeys on the bottom front and those lights come on, slide the phone open and the keyboard backlight comes on. The screen itself won't light up however. If I soft reset with the internal reset button, or take the battery out then put it back in, the screen works fine until the first time I press the standby on the top left of the phone to darken the screen. Once it's dark, it stays dark until I pull the battery again. I can also receive calls, but the incoming call doesn't light up the screen either. I've already tried reflashing my ROM (which I know is a working ROM as it's the same one I've used for months). Ideas? Help!
Sounds like a rom issue or software issue. Go back to stock rom. If problem continues send for a replacement. Also do you have throttlelock or other locker installed, if so uninstall and then test.
Had a similar issue out of the blue yesterday. Phone would go to sleep and not wake up unless it was reset. It was like the power button was not connected. I had to do a hard reset and load up a saved backup. All is good now. Somtimes files get corrupt.
This has been happening to me over the last couple of weeks. It can be okay for two or three days and then happen twice in a day.
I'm on the 6.5 stock ROM, the only thing I've changed recently is the SD card. It's not so bad that I'm going to Hard reset yet (too many settings and high scores to be lost!) but if it does I'll have to. I'm not inclined to flash another ROM given I might have to send off for a repair sometime soon though.
Well my issue is that it's happening even after reflashing a rom, both my original rom and the new Verizon 6.5 upgrade rom. The phone is clearly on, but the screen backlight isn't coming on. I can even press on the screen and hear the dialpad tones as if I'm about to make a call. Is there some sort of reset that might work aside from taking the battery out for awhile? I've tried that, but so far that hasn't worked.
Hmm - sounds like a hardware issue which is more worrying, have you tried HTC support?.
HTC support as in call HTC directly, or do some sort of HTC forums? I've always received my support from XTC
Still having phone issues. I can receive still, but once the screen goes to sleep, that's all she wrote till I pull the battery again.
Well it turned out to be a hardware issue (something loose in the base). I accidentally discovered that if I pressed hard on the headphone or power jack on the bottom of the phone, that the screen would come on. Called Verizon and they overnighted me another free of charge. This one is working great so far...
I got a similar issue, mine screen turn off when fully slide out the keyboard. I was told it could be the "flex".

Display issue with htc tilt 2 screen

My screen's backlight would not work after i press the sleep button.It would respond because as I randomly scroll through the screen I can feel the vibration of the touchflo and if i hold the phone up steady in a certain area with enough ligh such as the glare of the sun I can partially see the screen but its very hard. Only after i reset it the screen would come back in and the backlight would work until it goes into sleep mode after being inactive. I have tried installing a new Rom but it still didnt solve the problem. What do I do to repair this? I was assuming it was the flex but then I thought if it was the flex the screen would not work at all ? Can somebody help me

I'm assuming you aren't asking where the backlight controls are. It seems like you're saying that the backlight simply doesn't come back on after putting the device to sleep.
If you are flashing custom ROMs, preform a task29 (search) and then re-flash the device. If this doesn't fix the problem (make sure you test it before installing anything.), flash the latest stock ROM and see if it continues. If so, see about a warranty repair/exchange.
If this is on a stock ROM, re-flash the latest stock ROM and see if this behavior continues. Test it before installing anything. If it doesn't clear up, ask your carrier about a repair or exchange.

screen can't turn on without force reset (P600)

I bought my device (P600) a few month ago,
and suddenly (without changing rom/karnel or doing root) i got a big problem -
when i push the button that close the screen(turn off the screen but the device is still on) or if the screen is turned off automaticly, the screen stay off forever. Even pushing the power button doesnt turn on the screen.
The only way to turn the screen on again is to reset the device (by pushing the power button long press).
I almost sure that the problem is a hardware problem even that it's look like a software problem because after i saw the problem i changed the rom and the karnel to other option to check if the rom/the karnel is the problem and the problem didnt solved.
Someone have a clue which element make the problem?
Thanks (and sorry for my bad english)

I'd bet money on it being a backlight issue.
Test it again in a well-lit room with a bright lock screen wallpaper, something with a lot of bright color. Once the screen turns off, wake the device and look carefully to see if you can see anything. You might have to tilt the screen, but you should see a very faint, dark image.

Amazing that's was the problem!
There is a way to fix it? What is the component that causes this problem?
thank you so much!

Unfortunately I don't know of any solution other than sending it in for warranty coverage or replacing the screen yourself.
I've seen a couple of other posts on XDA involving the same issue, but never saw a solution. I've even seen this issue a couple of times IRL (not on my device, thankfully) and have not been able to find a solution. The two times I've seen this issue, the backlight level could not be adjusted, either. Whether it was set to automatic or manual brightness, it would never adjust, the backlight was locked at a constant level, until the screen turned off, and then the backlight would NOT come on again until the tablet was restarted. Reflashing stock firmware and doing a factory reset did not help, either. On one of those devices, the backlight DID start working again for a while after a manual wipe of internal storage, but only until the tablet was restarted, and I think that might have been a coincidence, I was not able to replicate that again.
So in short, I'm afraid I don't have a good solution other than hardware repair/replacement via warranty.
this has just happened to mine - will have to send it into repair, but it had CLEAN ROM installed so they might argue re the Knox trigger - really annoyed about this!

confusing screen burn-in/flickering (first post woohoo)

Hello. This is my first thread, I have downloaded maybe hundreds of ROM's from this site, have read thousands of threads and of course bricked a few phones lmao. Now I am here with a REALLY confusing problem. Without further ado, let's dive in. sry for my bad english btw.
I bought a second hand S9 today. The guy whom I bought the device told me, when he turns off the screen of the device by pressing the power button, black and green lines appear when he turns on again, and after a few seconds, when he turns the screen back on by pressing the power button, the problem disappears he told. I think he said there is a problem in the part called screen flex. (I ain't sure what that is, I need info about that too.) Sorry if you're confused this far, cuz more is coming thru
I got a very useful APK file named "OLED/AMOLED Saver" and installed it on my device, it worked really well and the lines were almost invisible anymore. After a few hours of use, what I noticed was even more confusing. I activated the AoD (Always on Display) feature, coincidentally, while testing the screen, when I locked the device by pressing the power button and the clock appeared on the AoD screen, when I turned on the screen in that way, I noticed that the screen did not burn in as if it was brand damn new. But if I don't wait for the AoD screen to show up and immediately press the power button again, the screen turns on completely and something really, really terrible appears, a mixture of black and green. Now let's come to my questions, I've blown your mind a lot I think.
1- Can anyone explain what's going on here?
2- Is the problem in the screen flex or is it purely software? (AoD thing)
3-Is there anyone who has experienced this and was able to completely solve the problem?
Thank you for spending your precious time. Hope I get a solution..
Hello, I have same problem with my old S9, it seems that is fully hardware issue, as a workaround you can set full brightness - it causes this issue to appear less frequently and another option is cooling down the phone - when display is black/green just lock the screen and put your phone to the freezer for a while - it will work properly until it heats again
Its something about an update made by Samsung https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5...t-bars-black-screen-issue/td-p/1745470/page/4
