My phone seems to be working fine, but it is hard to tell since the screen usually won't turn on. I say usually because once or twice a day I can wake the phone up and the screen will work, but as soon as the screen turns off again it usually won't come back on.
I am wondering if I wipe the phone back to stock if that might make it work like normal again, but my question to you is, Can I restore the phone to its original state without using the screen? Every time I try to boot to recovery or bootloader the screen stops working and I am stuck. Can I use ADB to do everything? If so, I need to know the commands to type in.
Is your ribbon cable loose?

My phone also has a problem that sometimes appears.
Sometimes, the screen won't turn on at all. I would use the phone normally and lock the screen. Then, all of the sudden, when I pick it up again it wouldn't turn on at all, it's like it shut down.. After pressing the POWER button, it reboots and then works.
I am still thinking this is a software glitch rather than a hardware problem. The screen came on the first try this morning and I went into Our Groceries to add something. When I backed out of it the screen turned off, and hasn't come on since. Also, last night it was also working and I went into settings to lower the screen brightness. No matter what I set it to it stayed the same, and the Auto setting was unchecked. I think I need to just reflash the rom but I don't know how to do that without the screen being on.
Some phones have problems handling low voltages in sleep mode if you have underclocked it. On one of my g2's i had to 384mhz or something like that for the screen to turn on.
I think it was the underclocking, not shure. But something with the screen voltage

If all else fails, flash it to a stock rom. Try to make sure all the overclocking features are turned off. Try finding a rom that's just a clean and rooted stock rom. Do that first, then if that doesn't work then flash to stock.
Remember overclocking isn't for every chip on every phone. Not all chips are made equal, and some can be amazing at overclocking or under volting and some not at all.
That is what I am wanting to do, but how do I do that without being able to see the screen? Every time I boot into recovery, or even bootloader, I have no screen to see what I am doing.

If you can't see the screen even in recovery then it must be hardware. You might have damaged the flex cable to the LCD+digitizer. You can try to flash it to stock with HTC's tools. I remember doing it to my phone without needing to touch it at all. So long as the phone is on and charged, you should be able to do it. Just do a quick search on the forums, but make sure not to flash a rom that you can't root.
You can get it on Ebay for $26. They sell them with tools for a bit more if you don't have the tools.

Here's the flex cable with tools.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-Main-Fl...758?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c65ba56ce
Wow. So the cable is actually user replaceable? I guess I need a YouTube video or something to show how it's done. Of course, my screen works SOME of the time, so I don't know if I have the guts to perform this type of surgery without a viable backup plan if something goes wrong. This looks like something I would try after I have a suitable replacement phone already. Still, I find it impressive that this part is so easy to find! Thanks for the links!
If you decide to replace the ribbon, go ahead and replace the hinge spring as well, worked wonders for my G2.
i replaced the screen ribbon and the spring at the same time.
it wasn't too hard. takes about 15 - 20 minutes to do it the first time.
you can buy the entire ribbon assembly for pretty cheap. just be VERY careful with the USB/SD card ribbons on the side of the main board. one is a clip, the other is a pull tab. if u dont know which one is which- the phone will not have SD card capability when you break them :-(

This is the dirty secret of smart phones, in that nearly everything is replaceable, and usually for cheap.
Damaged the phone physically = housing = $60
damaged screen = lcd + digitizer = $50
Even the speakers are like $3, and I know cause I had to replace mine. The only thing that'll make you want to throw the phone away is if the main board or logic board is damaged. Even then you could probably find a broken phone that at least has a working board for cheap. I actually bought a $15 broken G2 that I plan to repair and give it to my sister as a gift. I have enough spare parts to make it work.
As for changing it, there's plenty of guides on how to replace the digitizer on YouTube. You have to replace the cable to get to the lcd+digitizer, so just follow the video up to that point.

I just wanted to say Thank You to everyone who helped me on this. I bought the ribbon, watched the YouTube video, and now I have a working phone again! $25 sure beats $350 for a new phone, and it was more fun , too.
Now my screen has trouble displaying colors with gradients. It looks like it isn't showing all the colors, so there is a weird muddy area between the dark and lighter portions, sort of like playing an old Sierra computer game from the 80's. Did it revert to only showing 65k colors instead of millions? Still, not a deal breaker in any way. The phone works and i couldn't be happier!

I have a serious problem. I noticed a bug in the Desire alphas where sometimes when the backlight went off during a call it would not come back on when the i took the phone away from my face. It always came back on eventually.
Ok now yesterday I flash alpha 8 and it worked fine. Now all of a sudden I reboot my phone bc the battery dies and the backlight won't come on at all! I know the phone is on because the haptic feedback and cap buttons are on and if I leave it on I can tell it's getting notifications.
How am I supposed to fix this?! I can't even see anything to get into recovery! My phone is unusable.

Load into bootloader
Press power button once and wait about 20 seconds
press volume down once then hit power button once
Wait about a minute and move the trackball down slowly 3 time and press it
Scroll it down once and press it four times

Unless your screen is broken you can always boot into recovery.
Take out the battery, then put it back in.
Hold the trackball down as you power on, this will boot you into fast boot.
Select bootloader, then select recovery. and bam your in recovery and can reflash.
I can get my phone into recovery. When I adb in i can push the phone into recovery, then when i hit adb devices it shows my phone and says recovery.
the problem is the backlight is not on even when i am in recovery. i would say the screen broke, but it seemed like a software problem, because it was just slow to come back on. It still always came back on. then I left it in my car chargine and it never came on again. The phone seems to be working fine though.
Kind of off topic, but did your call screen do this before flashing to Desire at all? Did you recently install a screen protector? I had problems with the PhantomSkinz screen protector making the proximity sensor less sensitive and behaved exactly how you're describing...as soon as I took it off it started working again. I'm now using a dcmugen88 screen protector and it works great.
interesting. i have one of those bodyglove or whatever protectors. best buy glued it onto my lcd. i suppose it could have started around that time. but would the proximity sensor still be deactivating the lcd even when its booting up or in recovery?
Oh, I must have overlooked that. The screen protector wouldn't cause any issues on startup or in recovery... guess it must be the rom then.
well, figured it out.
warning to n1 users: watch that lcd screen under the glass. its not nearly as sturdy as the glass cover.
the lcd/digitizer screen under my glass got cracked and stopped working. no drop, no warning, no funny colors. htc does not cover this in the warranty no matter how good the actual phones condition is.
i almost didnt get another n1, a phone thats inherantly weak (i found dozens of similar reports over the web) is not exactly a good case for a system with no insurance, no store to walk into, and very unhelpful support. they try to be very nice, but the rep i talked to couldnt even tell me whats covered and not. he just said let us charge 500 bucks to your card and we will ship a replacement, then decide if we think you have to buy it once we get your old phone. i demanded to talk to someone who did know. his manager denied hearing about lcd screen problems... after the original rep said he and htc knew this was a common problem. google didnt even return my email when i first contacted them saying my backlight was broken.
so again, be careful and get a good case.

Hi!
I recently noticed that an area of my HTC Desire Z's Touch Screen is dead. It might be related to me dropping the phone accidently about 1 meter on the ground, but I didn't immediately notice the effect.
You can find a video of my symptoms here:
youtube.com/watch?v=bHB41nXtwns
(Sorry, I can't use a direct link since this is my first post here)
Which part of the phone could be defect, according to the symptoms? The digitizer? Even more? Are there maybe any workarounds I could try to get it working again?
What I tried so far is turning the phone off, removing the battery, turning it back on (no difference). Also, I tried with and without a charger connected and with and without touching the phone's body to establish a common ground level (so not the usual touch screen problems here).
Thanks in advance!
If there's a screen protector on, try removing it and see if it behaves differently.

There is no screen protector on it. The device is unmodified with regards to hardware / accesoires.
It could be a loose ribbon cable, tear down the phone and reattach the cable that goes to the screen, or call in a warranty.

I advice not to do this... first call your mobile carrier. Tell them about your issue, try to get it replace if possible. Tear downs should only be done if that's the last option you have...

I didn't buy the phone from a carrier but from amazon.co.uk. I wanted to avoid using warranty because it's a lot of trouble (phone needs to be sent to the UK, i need to S-ON and restore the original ROM/recovery firmware first, phone will probably be away for some weeks).
As it's only a minor issue, I would try to repair it myself (I'm confident that I can do that). What I am looking for is just a hint with which I can confirm that it's just the digitizer so I don't order the wrong replacement part and have to open/close the phone several times.

I'd recommend against that, as its still under warranty. Its too easy to mess something up when you do-it-yourself, and you would void the warranty.
Hello,
I dropped my Nexus 4 (EG960) couple of months ago, ordered a new LCD + Digitizer and started to replace the screen myself.
Everything went just smoothly, I removed the broken screen, put the new one, put everything back together, slowly and safely connected all components, turned on the phone and.................
Guess what? The phone is turning on, but I can only see stripes of different colors all over the screen. I can see that the Google animation is working in the background and that the phone successfully booted. I can actually still see a line where the previous crack was.
I tried reassembling and reassembling everything slowly but still see the issue.
I can attach a picture if needed.
Am I missing anything?????
Thanks,
Liran.

Well it's great and all that you took apart and put back together but I'm not a big fan of repairing screens, digi,etc I think no matter who fixes it will never be the same as before if you could I would try to sell it and just get another one.. Or take it to a professional and try to get a warranty with repair.. Just a thought..

We can just guess.. Maybe you damaged a flex cable or a connector/plug. If the problem persists with a second screen then I think its something on the mainboard as suggested..

Hello peeps,
I had just recently got this phone, its been 2 months exact and yesterday this happened. It was upside down when it rolled over it (was on the road), I was surprised to know that its back merely seems damaged (see pictures to have better idea).
- Speaker seems to be working fine. (SIM working in it!)
- LED indicator is blinking too and working as it should.
- It turns on/off without any problem.
- The power and volume buttons are also working fine.
I had lock screen passcode on so can't access the data, but it connects to computer fine. I wonder if replacing the display and screen digitizer will be the only things I need to make it work.
PS : I had no screen protector/back case or anything on it.
EDIT 1 : Touch is still working. I just somehow like entered the emergency mode and I can hear the dial pad tones.
EDIT 2: Data accessed!!

If you had usb debugging enabled, you can completely remove the lockscreen and access your data. There is a reddit post detailing how to do it step by step. Please Google because I don't have a bookmark. I did this to my Z3 when i got damaged. If you didn't have USB debugging enabled, you'll have to find some hack to do that before attempting.
Also replacing the screen and maybe the digitizer (if damaged) should get your phone back up and running.

Hey there, thanks for sharing...been away on Thanksgiving. You want to save your data? Hmm...good question. Here's what I would try to do:
- Contacts should be backed up in Google - so no worries there...you can access via. http://contacts.google.com I think
- Connect the phone to PC, Install ASUS PC Link. You should have the app running on the phone.
- I would then try to drag all the files you need to your computer,
- Or the other thing you can do is if the information is crucial....And I don't promote doing this, and this is not an official ASUS fix...because you will void your warranty..sooo anything issue that happens is on you and ASUS will not help you if something goes wrong...is to root your device, install Titanium Backup, and use that to save all your data (apps and everything) into Google Drive, or Dropbox. Then, you can restore that data back to your phone when it's fixed.
What about micro USB to HDMI and then follow on the big screen what you're doing?

Haven't read the whole thread, not sure what your plans are, but thought I'd share a recent experience.
My wife knocked her phone off a table at a restaurant a few weeks ago. Landed on the corner when it hit the tile floor. Screen shattered. Was still usable, but bits of glass were flaking off.
I ordered her a new screen & digitizer from amazon. Took about 3 weeks to show up. I replaced it using a plastic spudger tool I had from an old iPhone screen replacement kit, and some patience. The screen replacement kit I ordered came with some double sided tape to reseal everything. Took about 90 minutes to complete as I was taking my time. The replacement went flawlessly and you can't even tell her screen has been replaced. I'd recommend trying that before replacing the phone, unless you want to.

Okay, a couple of days have been past now. I was using my phone back then, playing a game and then suddenly the notification led lighted blue and then the screen turned black. But it's still working. I thought it got hanged out or empty battery but it didn't show the samsung logo. So I restarted it. It started and I can unlock the lockscreen but it's all showing black screen. Can't see anything. Menu, home, power, volume and back buttons are all working.
I brought it to phone repair centers and they all said it was LCD problem and I need to pay for like $100(converted) for a new LCD. Are they saying the truth or I can still resolve this?
Yes, there seems to be a physical problem.
I cant say if its the LCD itself, or a cable, or a conector, or the graphics chip on the board. But yes, it seems to be a hardware issue.
If you are able to work on stuff like that, open the phone yourself, clean the board with Isoprophyl, clean the connectors and put it back together.
Maybe that will already fix it. If not, let them take a shot.
If you are not sure about that procedure, there are a lot of videos on youtube showing you how to dis- and reassemble an S4.
First things first, Hi
Second, Only the S4 Active has an LCD screen, the others are AMOLED.
Third, You say that all the keys are working. Are you basing this on the touch sounds, or are the any visual indicators?
what reaper said... if you go ahead and get it repaired insist that you get an AMOLED panel and not an LCD, you'll regret it if you don't...
