Display malfunctioning - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with my xperia play. When I click the power button on the phone works but the display does not light. The phone works because tapping the bar release feel the vibration or if I press play on the widget music it starts. The only solution at the moment is to open the slide of the phone 5-6 times and then press the home button and the display lights up. Can anyone tell me how to solve? I have stock rom with .58 build root. I have used many roms and this problem occurred after installing the MIUI australia. thanks

It's not a Rom issue, I think you need to replace your flex cable or something is wrong with the display, likely the former.

Hi, when i take a picture with my sony LT15 the camera button didn't work, and i can not use the camera button to open the camera, what's wrong with it? Can any body help me?

You need to press it harder till you heard click sound...

physically broken phone

I have an xperia play that works just fine. But a friend has asked me to look at his xperia play which has been physically damaged.
After looking through a few lil videos, I found out that when turning on the Xperia play, while the phone is on the SONY ERICSSON logo I can press BACK or SEARCH or the MENU button repetitively and it accesses the recovery menu. I was under the impression you had to hold the button down.
In any event...recovery mode isn't working on this physically broken phone. If you leave the SONY ERICSSON logo on too long, it eventually goes to this "static tv" screen.
I know it's a far shot...but is there any hope for this guy? I've plugged it into FLASH TOOL and it detects it...but any button I try and click on gives me an error message.
As far as I know, in a stock phone there isn't a recovery You need to install it (market, etc etc)
What error?

Reflash your kernel and rom. From what I know, its kernel related
From The god of gaming, the R800i Xperia Play
And if you have a case that might be blocking the proximity sensor this happens to my friends sgs2

I cut some case over the proximity sensor, reflash kernel and still the problem persist.
There's any apk to "dia"l and "force cancel dial"?
thanks

Two reasons:
-Button itself is damaged or have dirt where is suppose to make contact. If you don't know how to open your Play, leave that to proffesionals in repairs
-Flex cable is damaged. Replace it yourself or in repairs/service (wichever is avaible to you)
-Software error. Highly unlikely, but maybe. Flashing stock firmware will tell is it software error or not
The thing you can do to see what is damaged is next:
Power off phone and start flashtool in PC
Hold back button and doeas flashtool that you are in flash mode.
Repeat again, but this time with various combinations:
-press in different angle button itself (if it's button damaged, it might make contact in specific position)
-Open slider and see is back button working (in case of flex error, sometimes it works when slide is open, but not when slider closed)
-In case of software error, even circle button won't work as "back" in launcher/menues
Always remember costum roms can do anything

Circle on the gamepad acts as back button as well

Vibration and feedback

Hi guys I kept having a problem on my xperia s recently where sometimes the vibration and haptic feedback on the soft buttons and keyboard stop working. At that time I was rooted on stock .96 firmware.
So yesterday I decided to reflash using SUS. Set everything back to how I had it. However I'm still receiving the same problem. Sometimes vibration stops when the phone rings or when I type or press the home and back buttons. Then sometimes it starts itself. If I reboot it doesn't help. Sometimes doesn't even vibrate when I press the power button to turn the phone on.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Might be hardware problem. ..Check if your vibration is correct using this keycode : *#*#0842#*#*
Hi I have tried your suggestion and it works fine when I do a service test.
Correction: only works sometimes.
Should I buy a new vibration module?

yep...better get it checked to a sony center and see what they have to say
Well I have no warranty left and can't afford the repair cost. I used to work in a mobile phone store myself so I know what I'm doing just haven't had the chance to open up the phone. So I'll try and flash it again and see what happens. After that I'll open up and inspect the handset. I've order the vibration module just in case but I'm gonna have to live with the phone like this for a while due to the holiday period
