Phone freezes

Hi,
My xperia x1 is freezing. When i slide out and touch the (i dont know how to say) 'mouse' (the black square button in front), the screen blinks and flickers... and then the screen give more light and freezes.. i cant do nothing then. I must take the battery out to get it working again. And sometimes it freezes it self.. i dont know why or how..
Can you guys help me with this.
(I hope i made myself clear , sorry for my bad english)
I searched the forum for a solution for this, button with no results.. google wont help to.
Soft-Hard Reset wont help.
I have the latest official rom update from SE Update Service.
i think this happened after i got the latest update, but with the previous update i had problems with slowness, and that i get sms but cant read, that is solved with the new update. But now i got this freezing thing.
Well, if a hard reset hasn't helped then it's a hardware problem. You will have to send it/take it for repairs...
Is there no other solution, are there no more users that accured this problem.
Because i wanted to send my phone, but they ask for the contract, but i dont have that
Go to another repair shop...

No light on my HTC

First I want to say hello to everybody because this is my first thread.
I found a lot of solutions for my problems on this forum but I can not find solution for brand new problem that appeared yesterday. The thing is that my phone fall out from my pocket and now I do not have any picture and light anymore. I can turn on phone, synchronize with my laptop but no flashing light on buttons and no picture. The LCD seems OK (no scratch or visible sign that is broken).
Does anybody know what is wrong or what can I check? Phone has no warranty anymore.
try and get the help from general options.
if you cant get this fixed.. please let me know..
i am badly in need of dead Touch diamonds..
we are working on a college project....
please be kind
I managed to repair it. I opened it, put all together and it works now. I think that one (or both) connectors on the back side of main board lost connection when the phone fall on the floor. So lucky me, I have a working phone.
Sorry asnaveenkumar, now it works.

after putting it all back together it runs fine... checking the landscape camera wifi etc..
i decided to change rom because i think i could make it so new that even the os is changed...
i follow the basic process and it work fine..
after a week i notice that when i connect to the internet 3g... it jumbles the pixels of the screen in the upper part of the x1 even on landscape mode.. it is still there....

same with my phone, may be digitizer was broken
Are u using a custom Rom or the Original ? My touchscreen had a similar issue, and reflashing the ROM solved it. It took 2 flashes, but the issue is gone.
Dont know if yours is the same, but if the issue still remains, atleast it can confirmed that its a hardware issue and not a software one.

I have used CM6 on my phone, but when i got this issue, i made my phone back to 2.1. The problem is still standing.
uh oh. Looks like a Hardware issue then. U still might wanna take to the store and get it verified. Is it still under warranty ? Any possibility of an exchange ?

Havent seen any such issues.. Thanks god..
it's similar to my problem, I had the back button through the top of the screen not working..
I have tried flashing, factory resets, and whatever I can do, but still no changed,, so I tried to ask the closest customer service and they said that it's the touchscreen panel must be thrown away to get the new one..
is it really true ?
please share this problem,,
thanks,,

Hi all!
I was having the same problem with the column of numbers 3, 6, 9 of dialpad. Looking for the solution in google, I have read that this problem is probably caused due to the moisture... so yesterday I turned of my milestone, removed the battery, SIM and SD cards and left it inside an enviromental chamber @ +70 celsius degress for 1 hour and guess what? Problem solved!
I hope that it works for anyone that are having the same problem!
Regards
Lucas

I have had good success with a combo of rice (inside a ziplock bag) to absorb humidity and/or a toaster over at the lowest bake setting.
Worked on MANY electronic devices over the years.

Same problem here. I've solved it by changing the digitizer (ebay 25 euros). Works fine now but in the mean time I change for a Desire HD... good by Milestone !
If you decide to change the digitizer, be patient, fixing th Milestone is not an user friendly task But if you take your time it's ok !
ive the same problem, and i believe that's because of moisture. because every time when its raining except the problem with right side of screen im not even able to use the phone touch screen doesn't work at all and the phone just does something by itself! this issue started with small vertical bar from right side of screen and it growing everyday now im not able to use right side of screen till home button.
i want to know do i have to replace touchscreen or i can fix it with something to absorb humidity?
thanks in advance

Bluetooth Fix

Hi to all
Suddenly my bluetooth won't find any other devices even though it's on it says searching, it can't be seen either even if it's set to be always visible, tried searching through service menu no luck either, my phone is only 2 months old and was working great with my Nokia Bluetooth headphones with my cars audio system, and of course other phones.
Allready repaired phone with Sony pc companion with no luck there, everything else works fine.
Please any help or tips to fix bluetooth please can't afford to get a new phone, in my country there no Sony service center.
Thanks in advance

is your bootloader locked? or unlocked?
you can report here about your problem and please do explain it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530747
My Xperia ZR gets the same problem around a week after purchasing.
Recently I found a way to temporarily solve it (most of the time it stop working right after I release my fingers).
My English is not good. Hope the following elaboration is clear enough.
Use the thumbnail to give some force on the right side (when looking at the back) of the flashlight over the NFC icon, and at the same time use another finger to give force at the edge on the left side of the front camera (when looking at the front).
The Bluetooth usually works when I do so.
YES! it does work i did the same thing looks like something is loosy in there there should be a connection problem i will open up my phone tonight and report it back, i just came here to say its a hardware problem in my guess cuz cyanogen rom didnt solve the problem either thank you sir
for those who dont know where to push, open the back cover and put some pressure on where you see "2nd MIC" push on the whole of microphone itself

Thanks for confirming!
Hope you could give us some guidance in fixing it ourselves. My phone is still within warranty but I doubt if the service centre will listen to my explanation of the problem or would simply try fixing it by reflashing the firmware and then tell me it is not fixable.
yes the bluetooth does starts working when pressing at the back near the nfc icon..thnx for the temporary solution..:good:
You are welcome.
The solution doesn't help much as Bluetooth will soon stop working (on my phone it stop working once I release my fingers), but it may show that there have been some problems in the manufacturing process as a lot of people encounter this problem.
ok what i think is this is a weak connection point in there and i wanted to disassemble the phone but some parts of it are attached with some kind of tape that makes it water proof, so i dont wanna lose the water resistance option on this phone at all and i stopped right there till i find a disassembly guide somewhere before i go further
and if anyone found something please let us know
thank you
and yes its just a temporarily fix to push in there and push a little harder to make it last longer but again not permanently!
EDIT: ok guys check this out
http://www.etradesupply.com/blog/sony-official-reveals-waterproof-cellphone-repair-process/
i dont think that we can fix this problem by ourselves, it needs special equipment and we dont have anything like these so ummmm no option for fixing it by ourselves i guess ...
Thanks to everyone luckily pressed in the right place and bluetooth is working again, so helpful even if it's not a permanent fix, now is it possible to identify which group of phones have this issue??? May be by date or color of phone or place it was manufactured....
