Why won't my screen stay off?

Quite frequently when I hit the red button the screen goes off and then instantly comes back on. If I repeatedly hit the red button it just keeps going off and then popping back on. Sometimes it does go off, sometimes it doesn't.
Other times it goes off and then later for no apparent reason it comes back on.
Any ideas?

Turn up your backlight
It's a bug. I know it sounds ridiculous, but this happens when your screen brightness is set to 40% or less. Turn the brightness up, and the problem goes away.

Nice, I turned up my brightness and so far so good...
Thanks.

Screen not showing an image when coming back from sleep?

VZW TP with Mighty ROM 6.
Hey guys, I started experiencing this weird problem yesterday. Basically, when the phone is turned on from sleep mode, whether I pushed the button to turn it back on, I get a phone call or text message, whatever...it doesn't show an image on the screen. I can see the screen itself light up (backlight or whatnot), but nothing else. Just a blank, black screen. It happens randomly. I've found that if I hold down the enter key on the d-pad, and turn the phone on, it works fine again.
Any clues, suggestions, advice?

You may want to try a program such as S2U2 and see if your phone will wake correctly.

[Q] Can't see anything on display

WARNING: not a native english speaker.
when I try to start the phone the following occur:
the display light turns on, shortly after that the phone emits that startup vibration, the backlight remains on for aprox. 85 seconds then the phone aparently shuts down. that meant, the backlight of the display turns off.
problem history:
I was at work and as usual i was listenin to music via handsfree. while my phone was in poket it seemed that somehow my poket pressed the sleep button and turned the screen up. no prob here. i got the phone out of ma poket. reverted the volume @ maximum and then locked the phone and turned the screen off and putted back in pocket. after some time i wanted to change the song. got out the phone, turned on the screen but nothink apeared except a horizontal line in the middle of the screen. I tried to shut down/up the screen but nothink apeared. after a couple of tries the screen turn on but it was unusual what i saw on it. I saw a sketch of the energy rom home screen with diferent colors.
Meantime i was tryng to get the screen outta sleep the music still played in the phones.
I thaugt that a reset will do but it didn't. got out the battery and got home. reasembled it, powerd up the phone and voila! the phone started up normaly. got out the battery, introduced the sim card. powerer up the phone but bad luck. the happiness was short lived. the problem camed back. another thing i noticed is that when i powwer on the phone i let it on but it wont output that energy rom bootup sound.
Can someone elude me with whats the problem with my phone?
hope I was clear enough!
Have a great day/night!
UPDATE: LEFT IT OVERNIGHT WITHOUT THE BATTERY AND NOW ASSEMBLED BACK. IT'S WORKING BUT I THINK IF I GIVE A RESTART THE problem will come back.

[Q] HTC Desire not exactly bricked.......but.....read on

Hi
Strange occurrence today. Turned on phone--nothing. Reset battery and it booted fine, but after awhile (when the screen timed out) it went back to black. When I turn it on it goes to dark blue (BSOD?) but nothing else happens, however as soon as I reset the battery, it will boot successfully and as long as the screen is on, the apps seem to work etc. As soon as I lose the screen, I lose the phone again. Volume down followed by power switch brings up the same BSOD.
The lcd is on and the phone is apparently charging regardless.
Can anyone help get me back in business?
Thanks

Phone on screen will not light up

I cleaned the terminals on the battery and phone, rebooted. Phone is on but cannot light up the screen. Hit the power button and you can swipe to unlock and feel it vibrate but it is all black. It will flash once and the soft keys light up. You can hear the notification go off so I know it is on. What happened?

Holding the volume button up and half the screen is visible in landscape mode. If I hold he phone vertically goes black, horizontal and the right half of screen is lit and functional.
I can only see the right half of the screen when held horizontally, flip 180 and still the same side of screen, every thing works just can't see it.

AOSP issue that occurs rarely. You'll need to wipe everything and restore a backup or flash another ROM.

Thanks, I just figured that out. Got into download mode and the whole screen came on. Just wiped it. Too bad I didn't get to make a Ti backup.

Yeah. I know it sucks ;-l. It happened to me a few times with my test ROMs I've built and even to my own daily driver of CM10 ;'(.
