Hey everyone
So I recently installed a custom android lollipop rom on my S4 and my backlit keys lights were working fine for a little bit, but now they won't turn on at all. I tried to look up some solutions and all I got was turn off power saver. My power saving features are off. I have flashed my phone about 5 times now with 3 different roms and still they don't come on.

Today I noticed my hardware buttons aren't working(camera,red,green). I can't figure it out and it's making it super hard to use my phone. The lights on the buttons are also on full time. I can't do a hard reset because my buttons aren't working. Ive also tried installing other roms but i keep getting error 262 in the rom installer. Please help me guys.
Ok, I couldn't hard reset the phone, but I was able to reinstalled the bell 6.1 rom. THIS DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. The lights on the buttons are still permenently lit, even if the phone is turned off. The red, green, camera buttoms DONT work. Please help me. I've tried leaving the battery out for 20 mins as well as countless soft resets
Same problem
I have the same issue, but my lights aren't staying on. the phone will sit there and i can turn it on, then i can't turn it off or use the hardware buttons. I'm curious as to what you have installed on the phone. I had an issue with the hard lights staying when i used google latitude in their maps application.
Do you have the new version of Skype installed? Vers. 3?
Hi all.
Got a tweaked XXLB1 rom on my Note. Can't remember which kernel that came with it.
Tried out different kernels, but no matter which I try I have gotten this new problem.
Everything boots great. Rom starts. But as soon as I turn of the screen (click the power button) I can't turn it on again. Well, it turns on "underneath" i could take a screenshots with power+menu and heared the "shutter sound".
But the screen stays black, but the backlight increases very rapidly. And many little 'stars' (from the AMOLED screen) appears.
Have to reset the phone by holding POWER.
EDIT: Google found me something: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22737711&postcount=882
I am currently running BlissPop ROM on a VS980.
I thought that this problem was ROM related but I've had it across three roms so far.
I read through some threads about Content Adaptive Backlight, but my problem seems to be different.
Whenever I unlock the screen, it lights up just for a second and then the backlight turns of.
Knock on and power button produce the same result.
I was willing to live with is since after pressing the power button about 5-6 times the screen would finally stay on,
but today the backlight started flickering.
Unlike CAB problems, the screen flickers, on the home screen, or on any screen randomly, regardless of the content changing or not.
Any help is appreciated.

Click to expand...

Got the same exact problem after software system update. Am thinking it could be software related,,,,waiting for lollipop, hopefully it will disappear
Try wiping the phone clean (all except internal) and then re-flash the rom of your choice.
Hello,
Recently I have installed slimkat 4.4.2 on my old Defy MB525.
Kernel 2.6.32.9-Aerokernel
After the screen turns off (due to time lapsed or pressing the power button) I can't have it back on.
I tried everything but the phone keeps "locked" with the screen off.
Even if there is a incoming call the screen keeps off.
I have to take out the battery and start the phone again to see the screen turning on.
Have you noticed something like this before??
Thanks a Lot in advance.
Greetings from Brazil.
Hi everyone!
I'm having something similar to black screen of death problem. When I turn on my phone, it's working until I lock it.
When I try to unlock it, my screen is black and only the buttons at the bottom and the notification LED is working.
I've tried pulling out the battery and the sd card and holding the power button for 1 minute, and many different variations of this method, but it didn't work.
I'm running on CM 13.0 but it happens on every ROM.
Please help :crying:
This happens on a the latest stock ROM too? If yes, sounds like a hardware problem.
