Random white screen?

Hi there, I have a random problem, that I have had on the 1.5 ROM, the beta ROM, and now the new ROM.
Occasionally, the screen goes completely white. It seems to be working, but the screen is not. This is not to do with an applications that are installed, as this happens even with a factory reset unit.
I can't figure out what causes it. Has anyone else seen this? Any comments?

have you find a solution
I know this post is quite old, but I can't find a clear answer about this problem...
My Atom stop with a white screen (colored,thin lines appear on the screen.Then the screen slowly turns to white)...
I must remove the battery and reset it to launch it again
I tryed everxthing... ROm update from the original firmware, PDAVIET (3 version on WM5 an WM6)
lot of resets, hard and soft...
This problem appers all the time... but randomly... 1 hours, 5 hours or 2 days after a reset....
Can you help me...

May be a hardware problem. To me it looks like a loose connection inside to the screen.

Do a search in the forum for "White Screen of Death" and you'll find lots on info regarding that problem. I don't think this was a problem with Tornados. I've read about this problem, mainly on HTC Dash. Good Luck.

i had similar problem with my E200 afer fall from 1 meter. I think its hardware problem. Dont know how to fix it

with mine tornado, it was a connector that wasn't attached anymore from the screen to the board..
you can always give it a try to look inside

Whiet row of 2 pixel width on the screen

Hello,
From some of my latest update of the firmware, I noticed that I had on the screen all along the left side a white raw that seems to be 2 pixels wide.
I have this from the wery first image that is displayed during the boot.
So it is not an OS issue but somethink more related to the hardware.
I tried to come mack to WM5, back to WM6, I also tried to reload the IPL
but nothing worked.
It looks like if the whole display have been moved to the right letting these white rows on the left.
Does have any guru an idea?
(Is there some tool for WM that can move the display same way it exist on windows for some videocards ?)

Sounds like a harware issue to me... Try a hard reset, and maybe flash a different ROM.

As I said I tried different firmares WM5, WM6 and reloaded the IPL (and any time hard reset was used).

TomTom logo on the today screen

Hello people,
For the first time ever I bought a smartphone and the choice fell on the TC. Now I have it for a few days and I'm really happy with it. I installed TT 6.030 and it's working like a charm.
However, on the Today screen the TomTom logo (and text) has white pixels around it, it's clearly made for a light background. However I like dark backgrounds (like the default) so it's kinda bothering me. I searched the forums and tried Google, but I can't find how to change the logo. Copying the logo to my pc, editing it and setting it back for instance. Or maybe TomTom comes with 2 logo's so that I can pick another version.
Is this possible? If so, how and otherwise why not?
Thanks

ISTR experiencing the same thing with the version of TomTom I had previously bought. However, the version that comes with the cruise on the CD is slightly different and displayed properly on the homescreen. You can still use your existing maps with it.

Indeed, you should install version 6.032.

Black Screen Problem Solution

hello everyone,
i've seen throughout the forum, many users having the same problem as mine, it being the screen of the VOX going black, but the phone still working on the background, receiving calls etc.
i've seen that after the first timeout, the screen when its in a less brighter screen, it shows the phone perfectly
as no solution for this problem has been found yet
i wanted to know, if it is possible to someone to figure out if you can make the VOX work only with the less brighter screen, instead of the normal one.
maybe change something on the reg. i dont know
can someone please help me? or i can lose my phone for good because of this problem
cheers, and many thanks in advance

please, can someone help?

Yep. I have figured it out, but it's really booty how I have it working. I am binding a key press to kill and restart Tornado PowerControl with a dim/toggle argument. Attached are the 2 small scripts, I am sure it can be done cleaner than this however I didn't feel like it, heh. Simply remove .txt off the attached files, place them on your device and once you have TPC installed to main memory and MortScript, it will toggle your display when you run kill.mscr.
EDIT: Attached load.exe as per request.

How can I turn off the light?

Hi
The light of my imate jamin is continuously on. Normally, this light blinks only when blue tooth is on but now it is no more blue it is yellow just like the one above it. Now out of two lights, one is continuously on and one blinks at intervals. I have refreshed my phone twice but to no use (and suffered the loss of all my contacts etc!). The blue tooth light is still on.
There's one more problem: the programmes which I installed on my phone and removed are still in the list of installed programmes. I have removed them through 'add and remove' built-in programme and then I deleted them from the storage card as well but they are still there in the list. Please help.
regards,
Shahzad Ahmad

I would backup data and hardreset

It sounds like to me ur still on wm5 yes? This was a problem with winmo 5 in that apps did not always properly uninstall properly lol.
Have you thought about flashing to latest 6.1? Vincents roms are awesome and you will not believe the speed on your jamin compared to wm5!!!
It may also sort out you other issues.......
