I've been having a problem with my xperia play screen over the last few days. Some times when I press the power button or the home key the screen stays black.
Today though I've rarely been able to get my phone screen on
I've got to the point now that my screen won't even come on. Even after flashing my phone again with a new firmware. Then when I tried to turn on my play the LED flashed 3 times but RED :O
I'm now charging it but when charging, the LED is permanently red.
Is my Play dead or is it something simple like my battery dying?

I just skimmed your post but is this problem linked to this problem at the main sony site...
talk[DOT]sonymobile[DOT]com/message/259712
If it is it maybe a software glitch which harmed your phone/device...
------------------------------------------------
Sorry I'm new to this XDA Forum
Hey its me, the same guy from the official sony post,
I tried flashing new firmware, but that didn't work. so i ended up relocking my bootloader and trying an official update service, but that didn't work. I had to send it off to the sony repair centre.
one week later I got my phone back: fully working. they reprogrammed the phone with stock .42 FW
so send it off to the repair centre!
one note though. i flashed official .62 fw and installed doomkernel, but the next morning the screen went off whenever i tried to open settings. after 3 times it didn't com on again. after leaving the phone alone for 20 mins the screen would turn on again (after rebooting) but i'm sending it off to the repair centre again.
too bad the phone isn't fixed, still...
-this problem ( black screen or delay to turn the screen on ) is happening on some custom roms , which rom do you use ?
- sometimes when you change the cpu governor it happens , for example when you set the "powersave" profile for screen off , or when you use interactivex on your CPU .
i'm sure that related to your rom , your phone is alive mate
or according to 3raserNL information
- another way is : just flash a ftf .54 , .62 ...
good luck
Hi,
My phone has been working fine since I did S-off and installed a LeeDroid 2.3 ROM a year ago. This wednesday I had to install another ROM because of boot loop problems with the previous one. I used VJ CM10.1 v5.3 which worked amazing for almost 2 days. Yesterday at night while the phone was charging I couldn't unblock it (black screen) and the orange led kept light event without usb cable. I removed the battery and since then the phone only vibrates continuously when I turn it on. Even without battery if I use an USB cable it starts vibrating inmediatly, of course with any screen response (in the dark you can see a very light attempt to start the screen but nothing else). The PC don't detect anything when I plug it and I can't use any key combination to get to Recovery.
I wasn't doing anything dangerous, only charging but the ROM was only 2 days old. Does anybody now what is happening or how could I fix it? Sorry if It has been responsed but I think not (It's no the 7 vibrations problem).
I can provide more information if needed.Thanks a lot.
Take out the battery, hold the power button for 10 seconds, then try to boot.

Same result. It only vibrates. I'm considering hardware fault (is 2 years and half old) but as I changed the ROM this week seems to be somewhat related.
Before we come to a conclusion, let's try all the stuff we can.
Does the phone boot in hboot?
No, all key combinations apparently have the same result.
The last thing i'd like you to try is putting your phone in the freezer with the battery taken out. Who knows, maybe it will boot afterwards.
If not, then send it to a service.
Thanks a lot, I will try. By the way, I've started saving money to buy the Nexus 4
AW: [HELP] Screen off, vibrating continuously
You will love the N4
Anyway good luck on saving the life of your desire!

Pls help, I am facing same problem, :crying:
Same problem any help guys?
Hi!
I brought my Xperia Play phone USED two years ago and I've never had any problems with it.
However, recently, the phone has started to freeze itself in "screensaver" mode (Where the screen goes black after 15 seconds and locks the phone), but the screen won't light up no matter which button I press. I've had to restart the phone every time this happens.
It's been behaving strange at start up as well, as it sometimes take 20 minutes just for it to turn on, while on other occasions, it won't turn on at all!
Is this problem caused by the battery, or is it the hardware?
Is it with stock firmware?

Yes.
I've never modded it or installed custom firmware/apps.
Have you tried factory resetting it?

Yes, but it didn't fix it. The problem still occurs.
tldr: Black screen, no display, everything works "under" (I can answer the phone etc). Not a flex cable problem because occurs randomly, regardless of the slider being open or closed. The problem also occurs during boot up, so rather not a software problem.
I think I have something similiar. Everything was fine until a few days ago the screen didn't want to unlock..or at least I thought it was that.
Basically the phone sometimes works OK but sometimes if I turn off (lock) the screen, it won't go back. To be precise, the phone works and if someone calls me I can pick it up moving the finger where the slider should be, it's just the display doesn't turn on. Same goes for booting, bootloader logo etc, so IMO it's not a software problem.
Strange thing is that it just randomly pops back, sometimes when I move the gamepad slider, sometimes when I put in a jack cable or if I hard reset the phone (remove battery). I've had problems with the flex cable in the past and this time I know that it's not it (no difference if I open/close the slider).
My guess would be some power supply or LCD driver IC issues, because the screen stops working almost everytime if I put the phone into the dock. Moreover, if the screen doesn't work, the orange charging LED is not working (green and blue are OK). The moment the screen starts working, the orange charging LED starts working too.
it's very strange but I'm used to electronics doing strange stuff. Just wondering if I should give a try disassembling the phone and trying to fix it or just buy a new one or something?
I might add that I have bought a new battery ~3 months ago, but it's been working fine to this point. I have tried if the same problem occurs with the old/original battery and it's the same.
well, any ideas?
edit: This video shows something very similiar (except the backlight): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4p0-kv1cxA
Same problem. And I guess this guy has it too.

Any help?
Hello everyone,
I have a problem with my note 8 ,
I flashed a custom ROM (stock based) and a month later the screen started to blink rapidly while working with tablet.
It's like every 15 minutes I'm working with it, suddenly the screen starts going off and on rapidly each 0.1 seconds (yes, that fast)
Not like when I turn it off, it just rapidly goes off and on for a limited time,and sometimes it blinks-refreshes so much that the device reboots itself.
ONLY when I plug my charger the problem solvs. But as soon as I remove the charger, the problem comes back
I tried another custom ROM but it didn't solv the problem.
Anyone else has seen such problem?!
My same problem of my note 8 n5100
with original rom only
It aparently clear reason
Battery fail
It's logic
if u plug in it solve
My note 8 was like yours
with time
after flikering & blinking it shotdown , restart or even freeze
We need search for premium replacement battery
Device stuck in loop.. "Mi Logo" then battery icon.. this keeps repeating.
Friends,
My redmi note 5 pro was 50% battery and it suddenly turned off. After that when power connected no response. Connect via USB and Mi Logo appears first, then the battery icon with a flash symbol in middle. This repeats continuously. Some help, please ?
The phone is not rooted. Still in warranty period. No recent update. The last update was 1 month ago. No glitches after that.

Seems like your battery is dead, try charging it for some hours.
Any solution. I'm also having the same issue.

Woh.. its been a long time, though I am still using the same phone. ?
Try a hard reset first, if it doesn't help run to the service center. Don't worry about your data, service technician can easily recover it.
Back then My phone came into contact with sweat moisture and it fried few chips on the mother board.
Fluid damage is not covered under warranty, yet they gave me 50% discount. ?
All the data was restored afterwards and the phone still working fine.?
Hope you will find a solution soon. ?
Hey, it might be a bit late but i found a solution: i charged my phone for a few hours in fastboot mode (volume down + power button). Then turn it off and on again.

Same issue here. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
I was also facing the similar issue yesterday. Actually my phone fell down while charging after that it's started behaving like that and I kept on charging for 2 hours and tried to switch to fastboot mode still no luck and after that I left the phone idle for sometime witout charging and I gently pressed all the edges of my phone and tried fastboot mode and it's started working.
I know the solution which I gave looks silly but it's worked for me
