The ROM change would have reset any software issue and you have checked the connections, so I''m afraid it does sound like a hardware fault. I presume the backlight never comes on and you see ?? nothing on screen?
Perhap there are others who have experienced this?

yea the backlight never comes on but i dont see my today screen and stuff i can still use it but its preeetty hard using it without the backlight haha. hopefully someone has the same problem and fixed it. i hope its not the hardware.... thanx for the reply thought i was going to be left alone hahah
can anyone help me??? or has a solution to this problem??
i just put in a order for another screen hopefully its the screen that is defective....
The main backlight is generated in a pcb of the Flash unit(camera flash). It´s located inside of the rear case, and have a small screw that the subject one to the internal antenna. This pcb have a connector in the under side. If this connector (or the complete pcb) is disconnected, removed, liquid damage or broken, the main backlight don´t works.

Hi folks!
Has anyone here by chance had an issue with their Hermes Jogwheel? My phone's carefully looked-after and has only ever been dropped twice but for some reason my jogwheel has stopped working.
I tried a hard reset to make sure it wasn't a software thing but no luck with it working again

I have only seen one previous report of a hardware issue with the jog wheel. Not likely a repairable component, but might just need re-seating.
NB also has flashlight on the reverse (does that work??)

Yeah it's strange... The light is fine (tested with the camera flash function)
Just weird that it stopped all of a sudden and can't see as it's a software problem because of the hard reset etc.
I may have a look for a "how to disassemble" guide and see if it's been unseated as you suggested, cheers!
EDIT: For others who may see this and have a similar prob, the guide is here:-

Nice, cheers!
Ok my screen works, alignment is whack because the CENTER of screen doesnt work. I have seen a few people have had same problem but saw no results that worked. so open invitation to those that are skilled.
KJAM with WM6
Problem: the exact center of the screen does not work, its about exactly 1 centimeter to each extreme. on screen alignment it takes about 10 tries to finally exit alignment mode, *i dont know if its tired of trying to align it, that it just gives up* but screen center still does not work. everything else is fine but it doesnt work.
Tested the problem: to see the exact affected area i went into notes with draw mode. i made tons of horizontal and vertical lines through the inner part of the screen to see which was th area that didnt work. and it looks like this.

efforts to fix:
HKLM>drivers>touch panel>pressure threshold (couldnt find the folder)
Hard Reset
moved stylus around screen
soft reset
landscape & portrait mode
keyboard open & keyboard close
safe mode
synced & un synced
I think i have tried most of what i could guess and what i have read in related threads but no luck.
I haven't flashed the rom because i have a latest one and it was fine at first when i upgraded to WM6 until about a month later.
so i am in mexico right now and easy to say that wizard parts & wizards are hard to get here so i am thinking of getting a new screen all together from the US, so before i spend 40 dollars, i am asking for help to you guys.
I hope yall can help me. thanks.
your touch scren or digitalaizer is bad, you should remplace it.
it happend to me and had to change the digitalizer. on ebay there is a lot of chinese users that deliver arownd the world
Just got my adam today....
Been having issues with the accelerometer seems like eveything in games or apps that use the function wants to go to the right..no other holding place works.. just veers sharp right. then when I twist it at around it will go the other way but then back to right if I keep turning it ...
also when I hold it with my left hand only in landscape mode you see a spot of pressure on the screen push in as if my pointer finger in the back is pushin on the screen.
any one have any ideas.. already have wiped and tried again still no luck
The crazy part is the homescreen (launcher pro) always orients the proper way all the way around.. but maybe its a different sensor .. i dont know.
EDIT: I ran the program on my G2 and the blue points up to sky, the green points the right and the red is pointing in my direction...
If there is no way to reset the center in that accelerometer than I might just have to send it back.
Below is when the tablet is on a flat service.. if anyone else can run Z-device test to see what it should be that would be awesome.. i need to know if I need to fix this or send it back

Also here is a video of me use the "Swing Ball" app which shows that the balls swing straight up.
They move recklessly when I move the tablet around.
i've been having the same issue, and a little poking around has not yet yielded a fix. i'm still looking, but if anyone else finds anything, it would be great to know

I ended up installing the utopia beta 1 rom . The games that didn't work before are working now...I think its a problem on eden roms
hey there!
some days ago, I had new problems with my digitizer.
began 4 months ago, when I have replaced the broken digitizer with a new one bought on ebay, and so i had some issues with its sensivity. at first i had a problem on the bottom. I couldn't scroll up the pull-down menu of the status bar or scroll through the bar of the music player (red).
recently the sensitivity of the touchscreen is worsened and when I adjusted the smearings inside the digitizer, the situation got even worse, and now I am unable to use the keyboard on the "zxcvbnm(del)" row in portrait mode and I can't open new page of the browser in landscape mode (yellow).

right now my screen is literally gone mad! it automatically picks up touches on each side of the screen and I can't no longer use it. I must do a lock/unlock of the screen to get it out of this loop and so here's that it happens again in half a minute!
What could I do to fix my digitizer? I should be grateful if I might avoid to purchasing a new digitizer one more time, I wasted so much money on my phone that I would have been able to buy a new one!
PS. I'm sure that someone will say that it's only my fault if I have the phone in these conditions. not for really. I had great care to replace the digitizer on the phone and vice versa, so I would like a bit of professionalism to take my issue in a certain way and not that you always criticize the user, fool or not to be. I will consider any advice aside the usual criticisms.
I ask forgiveness for my clarification perhaps a little cheeky, but I felt compelled to say these things because I have experienced similar cases, and I wouldn't to happen again for better mine and yours, and thank you again for your unfailing support and sorry for my bad english I believe that you may solve the problem
Dear
I am also faced such difficulties. You can find my thread regarding "touchscreen malfunction" . But now the problem almost solved. Previously i was used froyo kernel based wiui. Then i change kernel to gb and flashed wiui for gb kernel.Its all before 3 weeks. I cant see the problem Till today. So just try it. My digitalizer was original and not replaced yet. I think the touch sensitivity of froyo kernel is more atleast in my case

Hi there,
My phones touch screen broken last month, I ordered a new digitizer with frame from China, I replaced broken screen carefully, then I turned on my phone, but I saw white lines on the screen.

Then I saw this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52414185&postcount=122 I thought it may be a kernel- digitizer incompatiblity.. I rooted my phone first time in my life, then flashed that kernel in the post, then phone is completely bricked.. now I see a black empty screen, it says "fast_boot started" etc. I googled and I saw some posts however nothing solved my problem.
I believe my phone is not bricked since it gives a response of black fastboot screen.. Can you please help me? I am a total Android noob, please don't just say "go to the download mode" tell me how to go to the download mode as well you can share links as long as they works..
I hope I can make my phone work again.
Finally, if I managed turn on my phone, can I really make the white lines disappear with software tweaks or my new touchscreen hardware is broken?
Thanks in advanced,
Eray
anyone?
I don't personally flash non stock roms, but if you read on the post with those type of roms a lot of them talk about a "JDI kernel" for the white line issue... Once again I have not personally seen it so I am not sure if that is what you have pictured, but it is worth a shot... Go to the forum where you got the rom you are on and look for a JDI kernel..
Reading your post it sounds like you had never installed a ROM until the screen issue arose with your new screen, if that's the case then redoing a ROM won't work for you as far as fixing the lines. Most people have found that issue to be permanent anyway and there is some debate on whether or not it is a flaw with the screen itself. Check my profile, I have a thread I did when I replaced my screen. It covered where I got it from and had a link for a great how two on youtube. If you get the date one it'll be a lot and not job. Your phone isn't bricked BTW. This forum has a wealth of knowledge on how to go about anyhing you wish to do. Whether it is to fix an issue or tweak to your hearts content. The search tool is your friend. Feel free to scroll my posts via my profile too. A while back I helped someone and covered a lot of different steps. If that doesn't get you any where let me know and I will see what I can dig up

I had the same problem last night. The solution is:
do you see that little tongue at the bottom of the screen full with resistant?
That little thing is sort cutted by the white antenna connetor when you put it together.
