Sorry I misread your first post!
You say it works but black screen. Sounds like a hardware issue mate. If its still under warranty, get another or if not I'd take it for repair.

my w890i starts OK but when i take it out my pocket it's dead - i have to take the battery out and start over

i have just taken out the battery, sim card & memory card and wiped them over with switch cleaner on a cloth - hopfully that might cure it

next stop i am going to order a new battery

next stop download new firmware
