[Q] LCD and Soft keys won't light up?

I've searched all the keywords I can think of to no avail.
I just bought a T899. It powers on and I can hear the "drip" noises when I touch the screen. The LCD does not light up nor do the soft keys. I was able to boot into recovery and root through Odin3 to "cwm6-root-note2." Odin3 said successful. I've looked for a remote viewing app to try to "see" what is going on onscreen. The ones I've found must be installed on the phone before use.
Are there any apps that can be pushed to my phone number or through USB to this phone that can help me troubleshoot this problem? Or am I just looking at a new LCD? I've taken it apart and everything looks connected inside. It will ring and take calls, just no LCD or soft key lights.
I got it dirt cheap so a replacement LCD will let me still make some money reselling this, but I want to exhaust all options before I go that route.
I'm looking for either a known problem with these or a way to remotely view the screen to flash a new rom to see if that's the problem. I'm new to this phone but have flashed and rooted several other models of Samsung phones.
Thank you for reading...

the best way is to pull the battery out and reinsert it and try home button, volume down and power (download mode). if you can see something on screen the lcd is ok. if lcd ok, try to flash another rom

I was lucky to get download mode with no screen. I did flash CMW and connected to Odin. I'm guessing I'll just need to get a new LCD. I was hoping I could troubleshoot with Odin or push a remote screen view app onto the phone. I was hoping for a cheaper fix. I'll just order the new LCD I guess.

[Q] Screen broken, charge online default

Hello XDA,
I have an G2 that is currently broken on the front screen, the LCD is functional however the touch interface is not working. I need to recover my photos and anything else that i could possibly recover with my computer however the phone is defaulted to charge only on a computer. There is no password on the phone and when i use an lg flip cover it will go to the homescreen. Does anyone have an idea on how i could accomplish this? phone is not rooted and usb debugging is disabled. I've looked around the forums and google searched around but i have had not luck, this leads me to believe there is nothing else i can do however maybe somewhere here can save the day.
Thank you

[Q] Help! Phone boots and is recognized by computer but no image

Hello there
Im hoping that someone here can help me since im ready to seel the pho for spare parts... i've tried it all.
Heres the deal:
- The phone boots well and if i connect it through usb to the computer i can even access the folders and all.
- I can take photos (i her the sound of the shutter and all and see the piics taken in the folder when connected to the computer) and screnshots
- I managed to restore the phone back to original settings and even update software with sony official soft.
- Inicialy i bought the phone as faulty to try and fix it since the buyer informed me there was no water damage ( and i can confirm this because the "stickers" only show white). He informed that the phone just stoped showing image on screen.
- I thought it was a problem with the LCd so i bought a new one and replace it. The problem persists. Everything works but the screen.
Any toughts on this one? Could the motherboard be faulty in only one place (image, proximity sensor, etc)?
Thanks for you time
Regards

Try the service manuals...

I have fully same faulty 2nd "spare parts" phone.
All works except screen, all as you described.
I checked, in my case problem definitely in screen because if connect main board to really working LCD panel = screen ok.
And vice versa: if connect normal main board to this probably faulty screen = black screen.
Maybe here broken flexible connector.
Also nothing interesting related to this case in service documents.

[Q] How to view a Dead Screen?

So my brother attempted to repair the screen on my note 2 and now the screen is completely dead the phone still rings when called and can be recognized by the pc. Basically all I want to do is get the pictures off my phone.
The issue is I can connect to samsung Kies but it requires me to unlock my phone to view the pictures. Is there any way around this? I would pay to get it fixed but i upgrade. Also if theres no work around how would I wipe it to sell?
Thanks in advanced!

Have you tried a wireless mouse with an otg cable?

Thanks Mate
not sure how I could have used mouse either as the lcd was smashed and couldn't see numbers. Not to worry I put a new screen on it. All good now
