Hi,

My girlfriend owns a SE Z520 and the other week she was using the phone and the screen went white then it started flickering very fast and now has just turned pure white. Strangely as i was trying to use it last night, as i closed the flip it happened on the outside screen but eventually stopped doing it.

I was just wondering if this is possibly a software fault and if i tried to do a software update with sony ericsson would it possibly cure the faults?

What do you guys think?

Cheers Si

Unfortunately we went to the local carphonewarehouse and they found it was out of warrenty but do the Z250's like most newer SE's have a 2year warrenty in the UK?

You may try EROM update first then. Use KulanKendi/Wotan for this.
