[help] w200 when power on shows display with nothing.

Posted by frascio
2 days ago my w200 begin to show this problem, when I power on, display is backlighted but completely any word is on it, so I cannot do nothing, cause I dont see nothing.
I've tried to rewrite display drivers 2 times, but nothing happened.
What I could try? Reflash totally the firmware?

thanks, regards

Hello!

You can try with MyPhoneExplorer and use it as a Remote Control. Check if you can control the phone and see the display in the computer. If so, then the LCD screen or any other component(LCD flex cable maybe) is damaged.

Your problem may be caused by a software or hardware issue. If you have a warranty you can replace your phone but if you don't want to do that yet, you can try these quick fixes:
-Charge your phone fully and then remove battery from the phone for sometime. This will restart all processes. Then return the battery and see what happens. If the display is clear it could be a problem with coordination of your phone memory.
-If there is a repair shop for Sony Ericson near you, take it to seek advice.
I had the same problem and I used to resolve it by removing the battery as indicated above.
