Yep. If it's anything like my issue then it looks like multi-colored static ("tv without signal"). The first replacement I ordered did not work. The second worked beautifully. I already knew how to do it because I had already moved one from a water-damaged phone into mine and ordered the first along with a new LCD to repair the water-damaged phone. It took me a little while to isolate just which was which because I had to take apart both phones again.

Hey guys,
first of all i really did research but i couldnt find a solution for my problem.
i had cm7 rc1 on my phone suddenly i noticed that my phone powers on but it only shows black screen with the led light of buttons but thats all.i tried to get into recovery mod by pressing volume button and power button but still it is black and i cant get into the mods.
how can i fix my problem?
more than likely replace the lcd and or flex cable, sounds like hardware as hboot has little to do witht the rom @ hand
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
so is it totally hardware problem? is there anything i can do with some codes or recovery things? or is there way to understand the source of the problem?
bootloader and recovery run independent from the rom, so if you have a black screen here to its hardware. sorry for the bad news. and if you were asking how to tell if its the lcd or the flex the only way to test I know of is to replace on and see if it works

Same problem. On mine, I replaced the LCD and flex cable and still doesn't work. My only guess is that it is either a software problem, or something on the motherboard got fried.
Hi,
I recently got my phone unlocked via testpoint (I think) and it was fine for a week or so but then the touch screen started locking up after i turn the screen on and bring up the lock screen and wouldn't respond to my touches (so I can't answer my calls/texts until I restart my phone), the screen itself was fine as I can see everything still and the phone still responds as the gamepad is still functioned so I could turn it off and on again which then fixed it for a few hours.
This has been happening a lot recently and a new problem has developed which is that it will not boot properly, if I have it plugged in and boot from the "charging mode" its fine but the screen doesn't work until about 10 reboots and on battery it hangs at the Sony Ericsson text screen (On boot) and I have to battery pull it and reboot it many times before it will boot successfully again.
It is running a stock gingerbread ROM (Build .42 - rooted). This worked perfectly and never locked up once before the unlock, so I'm placing my suspicions on that. -.-
any ideas for fixes are greatly appreciated as having this phone doing this ALL THE TIME is very frustrating and seems to be happening more regularly and sometimes even when the screen is turned on and I'm using the device.
Thanks in advance and for reading all of that (If you did )
The fact that you unlocked it shouldn't matter that it's having issues booting up. I had mine unlocked via testpoint and it was all good. Try reflashing your stock FTF.
I think build .42 is Verizon, right? But what phone version do you have?
I have the R800i - originally locked to orange. I flashed a .42 build i fund on the internet, i think it was a Chinese ROM as it came with Chinese keyboard etc. and various Chinese apps
hmm, as I'm typing this I'm waiting for it to reboot - Not working -.- I got told by the guy who unlocked it that i cant update my phone or it may blank screen on me or something? i didn't want to risk anything by re-flashing it as i don't want to have to buy a new phone if this one completely messes up to the point that it's bricked I'm thinking a reflash is the way to go... Can titanium backup backup whatsapp properly so i dont have to sort out my activation stuff again? it's assigned to my old number atm so yeahh...
Same problem over here.
I used to use the Doom kernel for over a year without problem but then the touchscren would frequently lose it's ability to react to touch usually a reboot would fix it, at some point i had to hold a button while bootup for it to react again soon i discovered that sliding the gamepad out was what killed the touch capability sliding the gamepad back in did not restore it only a reboot or as i discovered holding the home button for about 10 seconds how ever it was less and less functional until at somepoint nothing would restore it and the touchscreen permanently lost it's touch. Assuming it might be a software problem i reflashed stock rom and stock kernel the problem still persists and i am not sure if ihad this problem before reflashing or not but i also now have the problem that when pressing the power button the phone does not react for 15 seconds before getting to the sony erricons (or doom kernel) writing to not move one step further no matter the wait while starting with usb plugged in again takes 15 seconds wait time before anyting shows up but then after 30 seconds continues to the next splashscreen to start properly.
Initially i assumed it would be a software problem (like slyhedgehog56) how ever as not even reflashing the entire system fixed it i think that option is out of question. with the touchscreen capability i would blame it on the digitizer but would a digitizer problem also cause the boot issues? With unlocked boot loader i am obviously out of warranty and id rather not have to buy a new phone i would what so ever not mind doing some basic human capable repairs on it (for example exchanging digitizer) how ever i don't want to invest into repairs that possibly wont help anyway.
I hope somebody can provide us with some insight.
Well you've also got to consider is electricals can go wrong weather its a phone laptop toaster ect sometimes stuff just stops working for no reason and something will break just the way it works unfortunately

Well while it certainly is true that everything stops it's not quite for no reason i mean there is most certainly some reason, it's not like the device just randomly decides "im perfectly fine but i wont work anymore" if it's a broken contact a lose cable or a fried chip something IS to blame for malfunctions and if there is a specific pattern of malfunctions it may be possible to track back just what component gave up.
So thank you for notifying me that things break at times i will still continue to wait if somebody possibly has more detail on this particular malfunction though.

I'm not gonna lie myself as the same thing exactly happened to my phone and it died week ago.
Here's how it started
1 Touchscreen died for 5 Seconds when I didn't use phone for long.
- Over two weeks this dead time longly extended.
3 Touchscreen became completely dead and unusable.
- Tried stock rom, Markpython's Ics Rom and Slimbean (no result so hardware problem).
5 Relocked the bootloader, flashed stock fw.
- Device won't boot unless in USB Mode
7 Phone turns unusable (Yes I can navigate using gamepad) and goes to Sony Centre

Sounds like the exact same problem yes (including the gamepad navigation) would you mind keeping me/us updated over how it goes? what they blame to be the culprint etc?
friends too..
Turns out a friends Xperia play has the EXACT same problem so the test point unlock isn't the issue here tried reflashing this one and no help at all, it will boot if I gold the power button then plug a USB cable in but the screen doesn't respond to touches. The same for both phones, they won't boot without a USB connected and will occasionally work once every 50 or so tries without the cable -.-.
I'm at a loss, I've searched the internet to find no help and everyone just saying "use the Sony repair tool" no. It doesn't work!

Awesome! Keypad fault interesting
hmm you said you had flashed another rom that means you had your bootloader unlocked and your warranty voided right?
Did they charge you for the repairs?

Yes i know that you mentioned it however i thought they would/could check the status using the IMEI and could tell if it was locked nlocked though admittingly getting the code to unlock it using th IMEI does not actually mean that you unlocked it... ut alrigh thanks again

whole LCD, i saw the technician did it.
Hello everyone, About 6 months ago I cracked my screen on my phone. I used it for about 3 months after that until the LCD went black. The phone still booted and I can hear notifications coming through, so I figured it was a hardware problem with the LCD. Today I replaced the LCD and it is still just a black screen, and I can hear it booting just fine. I would like to try to restore my phone to factory setting to see if that will help. How can I do so without using the LCD? Does anyone know what other problems this could be? I appreciate the help
It has a custom rom install, I am trying to remember what it is so I can post it on here. I think because its custom I will not be able to use KIES

If you can't even see a boot logo when you first turn it on, restoring factory rom won't help sadly. You have deeper hardware issues then you initially thought ( mainboard possibly or a bad new lcd ).

Was playing around with my CM10.1 powered Galaxy W when it shutsdown by itself when its on sleep mode.
I tried switching it back on and it just shows the "Samsung" brand name in verry short seconds and then repeats from the start. How to fix this manually? Am i suppose to go for SSC???

If you didn't install any custom kernel/mod/system tweak, then from CWM recovery, you could try the "wipe data/ factory reset" option. See if it helps in any way. Although...from what you're saying...looks like you've got some custom stuff in there. For this case, I'm afraid your only way out is by making a pristine install of that ROM.

I only flashed MonsterV15 ROM after i pristined everrything. Also, I can't go to CWM properly as my phone keeps rebooting. The boot sequence i guess is Samsung -> Model no. -> bootanime' but i can only go for the first step and then it reboots. Another thing i discovered is that my phone switches on by itself when i insert the battery

Well, both sound like ROM issues to me now. But apparently at least one of them (the reboot issue) should be fixed. So head over to the dev thread. Looks like there is some new stuff in there. Also if the auto-turn-on thing when inserting the battery is not fixed too, you might as well report this in that thread.

Uhm, actually, the auto-turn-on issue & reboot issue thing happens when i insert the battery as well. Also, i can assure you that this ain't ROM issue. Previously, when i used OneOfAKind ROM, i switched SIM cards and then the auto-turn-on issue & reboot issue happened from there. I left my phone and battery apart for a day and then tried putting it backand BOOM it came back to life. So from there, hoping tht THANG won't happen again in my whole life, i pristined installed MonsterV15 and all went well when the THANG happened once more and i ended up heree .___.

Standard battery? Could you try with another (maybe stock) battery. Also...does it happen with any CM version?
This ain't software related....it's hardware related.....guaranteed.
It's a faulty power button.
The power button is behaving as if it were being continuously held in.
If you continually hold the power button on a normally booting W I bet you could replicate these exact symptoms. The results would be the same on insertion of the battery too.....
I answered an identical question a few weeks ago in this forum....and having done some research on the issue, I can tell you the only way you're going to fix it is take it to a service centre where they'll replace the entire main board......the power button is soldered directly to it.....
I'm guessing you can't successfully enter download mode either? So flashing back to stock beforehand isn't an option either....that shouldn't be a problem though.....if you can't get the phone to boot, they won't be able to either.....so they won't be able to tell what OS you're running. Even if they can, there's NO WAY they can argue that running a cusROM caused the power button to fail. Don't forget that the warrantee on Samsung phones is 2 years........

yea... I totally agree with keithross39. it's hardware related... Me and @hurtsky have this problem before too~ what i did is, insert the battery (and it will power on automatically). then spam the power button while it's booting... and it successfully booted (because the power button is not 'holding' anymore), you will see the reboot dialog pop out or screen turning on and off automatically. If you are lucky (like me) i fixed it myself by spamming the power button add don't press the power button anymore.... For now, I use the notificationbar's widget as screenoff, use terminal emulator to reboot or reboot recovery. I know that's weird, But I don't want to send it samsung because my phone is not original, it's AP
