Hello my friends,
long story short, I totally destroyed my screen, so I ordered a new one from ebay, for my XT1032, replacement went without problems, everything works perfectly but screen turns black for 0.4 second every 9 seconds (aproximatelly) - do you have any experiences with this behaviour? Or any suggestions where is the problem?
Aditional information:
1. as I said, phone version is XT1032 and the new display too (I have not found any difference between old and new one)
2. I checked contacts 3 times, I think, everything should be well connected
3. touchscreen, cameras, battery, speaker, sensors are working as they should
4. I tried to factory reset, didnt help
5. I have old Cyanogenod 6.0.1., so I have made some customisation
6. My last guess is that as I made different customisations to the software side of my phone, maybe the new screen isnt set up for something like that, and I need to do the same customisation from scratch, with the new display.
EDIT 1:
Display in Bootloader and Recovery is working without turning black
I tried to factory reset and flash a different ROM, but didnt work and display still turns black
(I wanted to destroy it because new Moto G gen5 came out , I tried hard to destroy it, but everything is working perfectly, just screen was unusable, so I said: Hell yeah, this phone is godlike, I will keep it )
Thanks for any suggestion.
So old screen doesnt do this strange black screen, so definitelly it is an issue of the new one. My last guess was that something can be wrong with the proximity sensor, but it turns out that probably it is not the problem. I will try to return the display. I have enough and I end this.

The other day, I hit the power button on my touch pro, and the screen didn't come on. I did a soft reset, and it started working again. Now today, the same thing is happening, but a soft reset isn't helping.
The screen's back light comes on, the LEDs on the buttons come on, and the phone seems to be working fine. I hear all the sounds, including the HTC sound while it is booting, and the new message sound, but the screen stays black. It still recognizes touches, it just doesn't show an image. I want to do a hard reset, and will if I can get it to come one one more time, but its been about a month since I backed up my contact list. Lesson learnt there. I'm afraid it might be a hardware problem since I don't see anything while its booting either.
Anyone know if this is a known hardware issue with the touch pro? The phone is less then 3 months old, and I've been real careful with it. I haven't dropped it from more then 2 feet, and even that was onto carpet. Its the Verizon version if that makes a difference, and I'm running one of the NFSFAN roms. Its not the newest one, but rather the one posted on October 19th. I doubt its the rom, though, as I've been using it for around 2 months with no issues.
EDIT: Ok, I went into the bootloader to see if it was hardware of software. I figured if it was hardware, the screen would be black, and if it was software, it would be the rainbow. Sure enough, the screen stayed black. Hit the reset button, and the screen actually came on! Go figure. Went to do a backup, and the screen literally crapped out on me while I was watching it. Definitely a hardware problem.
similar with Touch HD... kinda
I've been having a similar problem with my Touch HD. The problem is very intermittent though and is sometimes hard to reproduce. The screen and phone will be working fine then once in a while when I push the power button to lock the phone, I'll unlock it and the screen stays black. I know that the phone is still on and even unlocked because pushing the buttons at the bottom makes the phone vibrate. The only consistency in reproducing the problem happens after I do something major on the phone such as making a phone call, browsing the internet, sometimes charging the phone. Other than that, I can sit here and push the power button all day and it'll come on and off with no problems. When the screen does go black I've taken the battery out repeatedly as well as repeatedly rebooted the phone until it comes back on. I've tried doing hard and soft resets to no avail. I've tried deactivating "turn off backlight if device is not used for" and "turn off device if not used for" without any resolve. After this I've even left the screen on (disabled backlight off) to see if it flickers or shows any sign of being faulty and it seems to be fine. I'm currently on Dutty's HD WM 6.5 Leo R5 WWE rom, but this has happened with two other roms (NRG, LIA). Other info include:
OS: 5.2.23016
Manila: 2.519192828.0
Radio: 1.14.25.24
Protocol: 52.64.25.34H
I guess the only consistent software has been my radio. Please help! Any advice would be awesome. I've tried google search and xda search without much help. Thanks
Hi,
I've flashed my phone (HTC Touch Pro) with Hardspl and then the latest Energy ROM.
Everything went perfectly and I was impressesd with how simple and easy it was and how much difference the ROM made to the phone.
Today, while using the camera, the screen went blank.
I tryed turning the phone off, pulling battery and a hard reset but its still the same.
Even after hard reset, the screen is blank but if i press the power button, on the second press, I get a flash of whats on the screen and then it goes blank again.
Should I try to reflash the phone again?
I've searched but not found the same issue
Thanks
The touch screen is still working and sometimes i can see the display, but its very dark and hard to read. Is the flex cable that needs changing?
Why would it stop working so suddenly?
Should i take it apart to reseat it?
Ok, I've found the same issue in a few other peoples phones but they seem to have beeen resolved by sendin the phone back under warantee.
I dont have that option unfortunatly so need to find a fix.
The only thing wrong with the phone is the screen backlight that suddenly failed
Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction please? I cant find a definite diagnosis anywhere
New Flex cable?
New Screen?
Pray?
Thanks
Back to stock SPL and stock ROM
Still no luck
Hi! I am owner of HTC Magic (still android 1.6, no idea how to flash new version ) and i have 2 problems from this morning i woke up.
PROBLEM #1: For some reason i boot from power button and all i see is a black screen with a blue led (this happens 19/20 times). The first time it started up, everything went ok(tried every single button combo, but i found out that it's just a matter of luck)...System was fine,nothing deleted except one little thing...Trackball was not working properly and many times it did anything it wants and had some hard laggy times!
PROBLEM #2: Even the battery is 100%, in 1 hour it's 0% with the phone being able to cook eggs(The temprature goes really high)!
Also, i tried many times to start it up, cause i didn't notice the battary was flat out...Again ~20tries...
Checked solutions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=533240 Nothing matched my problems 100%... :S
UPDATE: I just opened the phone to clean everything.
1)I noticed that the trackball's sensors where REALLY dirty and connectors didn't have a good contact with the board. So, i cleaned them (i disolved it whole) and trackball works fine but up and left is not working at all(maybe i placed the sensors wrong?)...
2)i found out some sand (damn vacations in beaches...) over the battery board and now it works perfect!
3)I still haven't figured why blue led lights up on power up effort...
Any ideas?
Please i need some answer so i retrench for new phone...
Hi guys,
I replaced the LCD a week ago, but still have some minor issues:
- I only have backlight but no image on first boot. When I see the backlight disappears and thus know the phone has fully booted, I press the button and image is perfectly fine again. This is only with a first boot, when pressing restart it works just fine.
- I restored the phone using Xperia companion. At first start, the whole screen turned white and had all kinds of color deformations. I thought the screen was toasted! After that, image slowly came back leaving white edges around the corner. But also these slowly faded away and now it's fine again.
Does this sound familiar to someone or do I have a possessed phone??!?

Have you done the screen yourself? Have you transferred several sticky items (from the original sceen) that provide shielding from electric/magnetic fields? Are there any other problems with the screen: uneven patches or spots? Also, just removing the flex contacts and putting them back may fix the problem. Also, some after-market screens may not work properly with a non-stock kernel. If nothing else helps, try to flash pure Sony stock, reboot and let it settle. Rumour has it there is a screen calibration going on when you install original stock rom...

Thank you very much for the quick reply!
Yes I have done the replacement myself and transferred everything from old to new. I have done the Z3 before and didn't notice something unusual. No other issues except for the deformations when restoring with xperia companion. I will try to reopen the back and clean the connector again. How do I flash stock Sony? Is that different from using the repair function from the Xperia Companion software?? Thank you again!! :highfive:
Hello guys,
This is not necessarily a specific S8 plus thread, it's more of a software/hardware general related issue. I just replaced my display two weeks ago because I cracked the screen and the display a while ago.
After replacement, I got the phone, everything was good until I dialed *#0*# and started testing the touch. It appears that theres a portion in the middle of the display that is not working (the boxes wont go green when touching them). The thing is that, sometimes, the touch passes this test as in everything is ok and sometimes, it fails.
From time to time(pretty frequent) it randomly freezes and I have to hit the power button to open and close the screen to make it work again.
I just flashed the android Pie hoping a complete erase would fix the thing but it appears it didn't. Do you guys know any solution to my issue besides returning the phone in the service?
Thanks!
