Hello guys, my Nokia 6.1 Plus has developed a weird problem. When I turn on the phone the screen lights up as normal, displaying the androidone logo followed by the NOKIA logo before proceeding to the homescreen where it operates as normal. However, when I press the power button to turn the display off or when the display times out and goes off it doesn't wake up. It remains dark when I double tap on the screen or when I press the power button. The screen turns on but remains dark as I can feel it vibrate and respond to touch when I touch anywhere on the screen. I basically have to restart the phone to get it working again. The phone is basically unusable as I can't have the screen stay on all the time for me to use it.
What might be causing the problem and what can I do to remedy it?
Try to backup your important data and perform a factory reset.
May b it's hardware problem

Hello,
After installing the manilla2d, I have noticed my touch is not turning off after I press the on/off buttom. The screen just blinks and the phone returns to the today menu. A warning advice pops up on its screen but after I click over the YES buttom, it blinks and comes back to the same screen. So, the unique way I can turn it off is removing the battery. So, based on this experience, could someone help me to fix it? I have already uninstalled the M2D.. Thanks! Fabiano.
I have had the Touch 3G for nearly a year now and for the last 3 months I have had this recurring problem which is fixed with a hard reset but will recur again after about 6 weeks. The symptoms are:
1. When turning on, the backlight dims just before the HTC flash screen and startup sound (when it says "Smart Mobility")
2. Touching the screen doesn't bring the backlight back on.
3. Pressing the power button doesn't turn the screen off from this dimmed state, but after pressing touching the screen will turn the backlight back on.
4. Pressing the power button again will now turn off the screen, but pressing it again won't turn the screen back on! If I call it from another phone, the vibrator goes on but it doesn't ring, the screen stays off and you can't answer the call. If you hang up on the other phone it keeps vibrating and you need to do a soft reset to stop it.
If I do a hard reset the symptoms are gone and reinstalling the exact same software doesn't cause the problems immediately but withing a month or so it happens again. All I did just prior to these problems was use TomTom a bit more than usual, but otherwise nothing different. I have used TaskManager to see if there is anything weird running in the background but it all looks fine. I have had a cursory look through the registry but also can't find anything?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Sounds like it's going all haywire. If you've had it less than a year, I'd send it in real quick. Sounds more like a hardware problem.
I don't think it is hardware as a hard reset fixes it...it just recurs down the track. I have done a hardrest and reinstalled all my apps and it is working great again but I was wondering if I should be checking somewhere in the registry for an aberrant setting. I am u using a backup image program so at least when it happen again I an restore my system more simply.
But then again, all the symptoms you mentioned point to a hardware defect. You could try to find a tweak, but like all electronic devices, it's the luck of the draw. Try emailing HTC and see what they say.
Hi,
I experienced today a strange behavior:
I used my nook, turn off wifi, let it in my bag for 1 or 2 hours and when i tried to wake it the screen didn't turn on.
At first i though it was SOD but when i looked closer to the screen there was something on it, it was the CM7 boot logo (the tony hawks droid
The logo was not very visible, most like old "ghost image" on CRT screen when he same image is displayed for long periods of time.
I should have taken a photo, i will if it reproduce.
Kinda sounds like it was rebooting without turning on the backlight. Could you see the arrow circling? I've had "n" turn on the backlight with no image, but tapping power turns off the backlight, then tapping it again turns the screen on properly.
Sounds like somebody's state machine has a leak...
i will never know (i pressed power 8s, if it was booting, i just stopped it)
after updation to CM12, yesterday i observe that my mobile is not turned on. when i press the power button the lights at the bottom home and return buttons turned on but the screen is not turned on. I tried to charging the mobile. it gets charged and when i press power along with the volume buttons mobile gets restarted screen is also activated with the display of Cyanogen. but again same problem. i tried to dial from another mobile to yureka. I got the call but screen is not turned on. so that, i was unable to attend a lot of calls. i think its not a hard ware problem. might be some software problem. how do i fix this one........
Galaxy S5 G900F klte with LineageOS/eOS (Android 11) TWRP and Magisk Root.
The Screen works fine after booting the device. But:
- after the Screen Time out starts - the screen stays black (sometimes flickers a bit when pushing power button)
- also if i manual turn off the screen with i.e. pushing the power button - the screen stays black (sometimes flickers a bit when pushing power button)
Rebooting or taking battery out and back in doesn't help most of the time to get the screen back - and after the first screen time out / turning off screen manually it stays black anyway.
So at the moment I can only use the phone at home with my laptop (with scrcpy ).
I don't think it is a Hardware problem because when I boot into TWRP the screen works fine - for testing purposes i stayed for 2 days in TWRP and the screen came always back to life after every screen time out during the whole time.
Also the touch still works even if the display is black - when i see the screen on scrcpy i can see it functions normal when i touch around on the display.
I also noticed that the screen comes often back alive when i first start scrcpy with the --turn-screen-off flag and then push the home button 1 or more times on the phone)
Any suggestions how to fix that?
Is there maybe a graphics driver i could disable/change/switch in the development options?
