So my son got the tablet wet. I let it dry out for a few days then turned it on. Everything seemed fine. It went to home screen but the touchscreen was unresponsive. After about ten second's the screen went negative kinda then blank. It still vibrates and makes noise from notifications and volume buttons. But the screen will not work. Is there a screen replacement I can buy and would that work to fix my problem? If so is there also a video on how to do so? Thank you

Well i was on my phone and everything was fine however when i reset my phone with the stylus it turned back on but the screen was just black... now i can touch the screen and i hear the clicks and beeps as if the touchscreen is working but i cant see anything
I have a black screen also
I'm having a similar issue. It just began a week ago. My screen began fading out but when i'd open the keyboard it return to normal for a little while and then start to fade again. now its completely black and i can't use it at all.
i charged my phone completely and when i turned it back on it worked and it seems thats all i did because everything else was not helping but when i charged it complete it worked again
My n1 dropped on his screen and got a nasty cracks all over, but the phone still works as well as the touch.
However, after 3 days of the incident, when the phone goes standby it doesn't wake up again, only the capacitive button light up.
What can I do about it? Is it fixable? Can I fix it myself?
Hello.
The other day my phone suffered a little water damage. Not submerged in water or anything, but a couple drops found their way into the phone. The phone was turning off/on and functioning, but the display was black. I could feel buttons being pressed and stuff...the screen just wasn't illuminated. Well, I left it alone for a while, and now the screen works to a degree.
It's functioning perfectly, except it can't go above 40% brightness or the phone's screen goes black. As soon as I move the slider at or below 40%, the screen works perfectly again.
Obviously whatever illuminates the screen is damaged to some degree. The same thing happens when using apps like Lux...so I'm pretty sure it's a hardware problem now. I'm wondering if anyone has any idea what exactly could be damaged so I can fix it myself, or have anything to try before taking it apart again.
Thanks!

Did You ever get to the bottom of this?
Having the same exact problem?
my d800 was immersed in the pool for a few minutes.
tried heating it with a hair dryer immediately. then left it in rice for a couple of days.
after charging for a little bit, i hit the power button. phone turned on like normal, but lcd was all messed up.
it was like distorted rgb dots all over the screen. and there was no haptic feedback to my touch.
the phone functioned perfectly - ringtones, led notifications, etc. only, i couldn't see anything.
i left it off for a couple of weeks, and switched it on again today. the display is only black now, but i can see it is backlit, compared with when the screen is off. and the phone vibrates now when i touch the screen.
so i'm guessing the digitizer works?
looking to repair it myself, whatever might need replacing.
any ideas, guys, on what i have to change here? or just leave it like this and hope it eventually works again? :laugh:
also, suggestions or links for items and instructions that might've helped you will be much appreciated.
Hello,
My tablet dropped on the floor yesterday. Small fall, and it has a cover. There is no visual damage, but ever since, the touch screen acts weirdly. Works on top and bottom, but not in the center area. So, I have a hard time to even shut it down, as the Stop button is in the center of the screen. I succeeded in rebooting and the problem was resolved for maybe an hour. But then it came back and now even after rebooting, touch screen is still faulty. Also, the screen will turn on by itself every few minutes, even if I don't touch the top right side button. Never happened before the fall...
What can I do to fix this? Is there a software fix? Is it hardware? If so, how much is it to change a touch screen? Am I SOL and will have to look to buy another tablet? This really sucks anyway as this tablet was still perfect for my needs.
Thanks for any input.
