Everytime I boot my phone up, it works fine up until when the screen goes into sleep mode. Once it goes into sleep mode I cannot turn the screen back on, it stays black. The keyboard, end and answer key lights show up when I press the power button but the screen just stays black no matter what button I press.
I end up having to either take the battery out or using the stick to press the reset button on the side in order to get the phone to where I can see the screen again. I have adjusted the settings to where the screen doesnt go into sleep mode and the screen just stays on but that drains my battery. I want to be able to have my screen go off so I can save power but if it goes off it wont come on again until I reboot.
I have done a hard reset. This problem started happening to me when I started using the Energy Rom but I've even flashed different Roms and the problem still exist.
Somebody please tell me what's wrong! I need help! This is a big annoying problem to have. Thanks.
is this problem occurring when you slide the keyboard out?
i had the t-mobile touch pro2 with this problem.
the screen would die when the keyboard was out and not come back.
if this is the case, what i did was...
well. obviously not open the keyboard fully.
but if i accidentally had.
instead of pulling out the battery, i waited...
till the screen 'naturally' went to sleep.
than i would pull out the stylus or press power button
and the screen would come on.

Yes the problem still exist even when I slide the keyboard out. Once the screen goes off, that's it....pressing the power button to get it out of sleep mode, sliding the keyboard, I press all buttons and nothing works. The only thing that "works" to get the screen back on is removing the battery or using the stylus to press the reset button.
When sliding the keyboard out the keys light up but the screen doesn't come on, also pressing the power button lights up the end and answer keys without the screen coming on.

so. whenever the screen goes out, period, you cant get it back?
or the screen goes out and cant get it back once you slide the keyboard out?
if it is only when sliding out the keyboard...
try not opening the keyboard fully on the right side.
on my rhodium, after that point, the screen goes out.

Yes, period. Also, you know when you put your face to the phone during a call and the screen goes off so your face wont press anything on the screen? It doesn't come back on from that either once I end the phone call, it just stays black. I'm assuming you don't have any other suggestions. This Sucks

This has to be a software issue but I don't know where to start. I'm surprised nobody else has encountered this problem. I've grown frustrated of this issue because I don't understand why it's doing this. I have had the phone for almost 6 months only dropping it once 4 months ago and it wasn't a strong damaging drop that would affect anything inside. I guess I'll just have to go last resort and call warranty to swap the phone out. Thanks for the help.
Same problem

My phone also dos not come back on, when I put it in out the sreen with the power button on top, or when the phone goes to sleep. Nothing can put it back on(opening te keyboard, pulling out the stylis, presing the answer-, windows-, back- and end button). I and up using a music players too keep the phone busy what's makes it operational. Cant really remember when this started happening exactly. My phone is at the moment loaded with a standard ROM. I used too have a custom ROM.
My TP2 does this too, although I only encounter the problem sometimes when someone calls. I answer and put the phone next to my ear, the screen goes black as it should and the phone just dies. I can't hear what the other person is saying and the screen wont turn on anymore. I have to take out the battery to reboot.
set light sensor to manual in settings. You have some bad or fragmented code causing the problem. Pretty common actually, many different reasons, but usually either a bad light or proximity sensor or software issue. Setting the sensor to manual should do it, if not, hard reset and allow the phone to fully set up before touching it, to allow full customization process to complete. Search my posts on SOD (sleep of death) for more information.
Funny this was brought up. Now im worried I just dropped 250.00 and have a new one coming.
Mine started with the ear piece quit working. couldnt hear anything except on speaker.
Anyway I started having the screen issue over a month ago, only way to get it back was soft reset with the stylus. Also when the screen was lit, I couldn't hit the power button to turn the screen off. At times the screen would be on 24/7 and I just dealt with it. The times when it decieded to go to sleep was when I needed the soft reset. Well long story short I forgot my charger one day at work and the battery died. after pressing the power button for hours with no response, moving the screen in all diffrent directions as I pressed the button.It came on once after hrs of messing with it. Well today it died again and I am fed up with it so out came the tools. Once I opened it up I noticed the ribbon that feeds the screen from the mother board was worn and torn. the ribbon slides everytime the keyboard is slid out and it rubs on both sides of the phone. I thought maybe mine was just a fluke and was installed wrong considering the phone being 10 months old but now I read this and see maybe its a common problem. The cheapest I could find the Ribbon was 56.00 so I didnt want to chance it not being the issue.
Hi,
after i managed to fix the issues of my aria (with your help, thanks) i figured out that the touch screen isn't fully responding to my fingers.
at normal - all of the screen responds. except of two mm of the perimeter, and the nav keys.
if i push the top of the screen, the nav keys start working, but the screen isn't responding at all.
so i guess it is little loose.
what can i do to fix it back to normal functioning state?
thanks.
im just going to take a long shot and say taht the digitizer has been replaced before , and the adhesive used was too thick
try installing this

I've had this phone for 12 months (Typical! Just out of warranty! ), and I'm still running the initial stock ROM, however, all of a sudden last week whenever I took it out of my pocket and tried to unlock it, the screen stayed blank. Regardless of whether I use the power button or press Home, (or slide the gamepad out) it very often won't display the lock screen so I can unlock it. Occasionally it will display the unlock screen fine, but increasingly often it won't.
The phone is definitely still on, as if I press the volume keys I can hear it "Beep-BEep-BEEp-BEEP" as I push the volume at the side to turn it up. Occasionally after lots of trying it might come back and display the screen for me to slide-unlock, but most times I end up just taking the battery out.
Any ideas regarding what has caused this and what could maybe fix this? I've never dropped it, spilled water on it, or done anything other than it was intended so it's really puzzling and I'm concerned that when I receive phone calls I will be unable to answer them as a result.
Thanks in advance!
I guess it's the flex cable damaged.

Is there a way to tell for certain before I attempt to replace this? I just got a phone call and was able to answer it by dragging my finger across the screen, however the screen was off. So the touch screen is still functioning. It's not the backlight as the screen is definitely still "asleep" and under light you still couldn't see any pixels. It's as if the display is asleep and isn't waking up. I have a feeling it's to do with the phone's ability to slide open, but I'm not sure.
Thanks.
Touch screen still working so means the screen or the flex cable is damaged. But most probably is the flex cable because of the design, lots of people having this issue.
As the above poster said might be the flex but the whole LCD might be dameged hold it under intense light and and watch the LCD power on when the phone turns on if not well...

My Xperia play won't slide to unlock I have taken out the battery multiple times trying to fix it but still nothing the screen is on I can hold down the power button and select options everything works except being able to unlock the phone??someone please help!!?
Hello,
I'm having a problem with my Arc regarding the touch screen, the bottom part of the screen, where usually the icons and slide bar to unlock are is not working, tapping or sliding on it doesn't work. I was using CM10 originally and I tried flashing a stock firmware to double check whether it is the ROM's problem, but now i'm stuck at the setup wizard because I cannot click on the next button.
I went through the whole wizard once by accident and went into the service test for touch screen, the bottom part of the screen totally cannot be detected at all.
Can I ask that if I need to get one of phone part replaced (because my warrantly ran out), which part should I replace?
Thanks
Sry mate but i think it could be screen problem,the best thing you can do is to send it to service repair and see what they think of you're issue.I hope you'll get it fix cheep.Good luck

Hello,
I find out that on the right and bottom edge of the touch screen, does not work properly. some times i have to tap more than one time to make it recognize the tap. and also when i pull notification bar down sometimes i cant send it back up. it gous up for half centimeter and comes back down. (as if it were magnetized ) i have to slide it up multiple times to close it. i tried several roms, but the issue is still there.
so i am asking what is wrong with my phone? how can i calibrate my screen. what solution do you suggest?

some gnex have a touchscreen issue. a couple that i have had had bad issues with the softkeys being unresponsive. unfortunately from what i've seen, google has not come up with a solution to this. in your case, it just may be a bad digitizer or something else touch related. i would try going back to complete stock and relocked and see what that does.
