Screen is black

At work yesterday my phone was fine..I pulled it out of my pocket during a break and the screen wouldn't turn on..then I noticed the backlight was on and I can feel the screen vibrate when I hit where the home button should be but no picture. I am able to hear notifications and use my moto360 to make phone calls etc but no picture just a black screen and backlight is on.. Using my nexus 5 currently but wondering if anyone else has experienced this..T-Mobile said they would replace it under warranty.

Hello.
I have the exact same issue, I got a phone with a broken screen, it only had black backlight, then I changed the screen with a new one and still the same thing happens. Tried with two screens.
After replacing the screen I repaired the software via Sony PC companion, but it didn't work.
Does anyone know what the issue is here? Is it a dead motherboard or something else? Just so that I know to stop trying to fix it.
My unit isn't under warranty anymore because it had physical damage so replacing it via Sony is a no go.
The phone boots fine, I get audio reading of menu options for the initial setup, even the touch works, I can select options but I have no image, only the backlight.

Black screen please help!

HI! so i've been using my phone this morning playing music.. it's functions normally until i close the music app because i have to do something.. and when i check back on my phone my screen is just black.. the creen slightly lights up but wont display anything just black, i can hear apps sounds and by adjusting volume.. i tried rebooting and it's all black.. i flashed stock rom via flashtool but after rebooting it's still black.. please help me, i didn't drop the phone or anything..

I have the same problem and don't found a solution...

That really sounds strange.
You guys are making me scared about my phone cause I've never faced such thing

My lcd broke when a printer tonner hit the screen. I send it to replace to Spain because it was the Xperia C2105 and here in Argentina it's only the C2104, the parts are diferent. So when it's came here I could switch on, all work but the screen it's black, I don't know how to repair that.

Xperia Z3 Keeps restarting by itself

My Xperia Z3 just started restarting by itself every few minutes.
The phone functions normally for a few minutes, and then suddenly, the screen turns Black and you cant do anything with the phone. You would need to reset it in order to temporarly fix it.
I also have noticed the screen was flickering a bit, and the brightness was fixed, but it looks like the flickering and brightness issue went away. The phone heats up a bit as well.
I have factory resetted it, but the black screen problem still persists. Its running on Android 5.0.2.
Does anyone have any answers?

help my nexus 5

Could you see images on the old screen?

Hey! The display probably isn't the problem. It may actually be the battery not being able to supply power to the screen by being burned out. Try replacing the battery then take it to your local carriers store

Don't think it is the battery if the phone functions other than the display.
I have changed the screen on roughly 10 nexus 5 phones and, even with a so-so battery would boot the phone no display an image.

did you find a fix for your problem? I'm having the same issue. Everything works, I can hear sounds, notifications, receive calls but cannot see anything

Unresponsive black screen after booting

[F8332/Locked BL/Official] Screen goes black and doesn't turn on when booting. Tried software repair with Xperia Companion but still the same problem. Phone is working even with black screen because it can still receive calls but no display so you can't answer calls. Tried restarting/power off. After the sony logo and xperia it goes black when android os starts. Tried searching this forum for same condition and I think there is none so I posted this concern of mine. Please help.

Hold UP, and Power button for 30 sec. It turn on on settings it will work on.

Hi there.
I know this is an old post but did you ever find the solution for this? I have a xperia xz1 with the same problem. Display goes black right after sony and xperia logo when android OS starts.
Thanks.

Hello guy, I also received a phone with this same issue, screen goes off/blank after successful boot up, but the phone is still working, just that you can interact with the screen.
After several attempts, (replaced screen, battery. Yet nothing).
So, I pressed the corners of the phone and it came on ( not immediately though).
Then I saw a notification about cover settings.
To cut the story short. This is the cause of the black screen and solution.
Go to settings > Display > Cover Settings> turn off.
