Xperia screen going black! - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, hope you can help me!
Lately my Xperia's screen has been turning blank randomly, and after I take out the battery and put it in [or when I soft reset it] it turns on correctly, sometimes.
I tried changing roms but today I have been experiencing the same problem. :/
This happens when I'm in portrait mode.
Landscape doesn't work, I know why. Wear and tear. -.-
Please I'd really appreciate if you helped.

Corrupt screen after charging over night

It have happened to me 3 times already, and I've only had my Diamond for 3 weeks...
When I leave my device charging over night, in the morning the display looks completely scrambled / distorted and the only thing I can do is a restart... Luckily it boots up normal again.
Am I the only one with this issue??
Btw... I've handled my phone with care & not ever dropped it or had it near any moisture, I guess this might be a harware issue!?
Dun worry owziee....
I having the same problem too.........
nothing but a white static/scrambled screen, right? Happens many time to me...the only thing i can do is re-insert the battery (holding the power button to restart doesnt work).
what about soft reset button ?
Sof reset fixes it. I think that the 3D chip is overheated, because it happens when I play sensory overload (a 3d game) too.
But strangely not when I play Call of Duty 2...?
Alteast we could get it back to normal with a soft-reset, kaiser had similar problem where only a hard-reset was possible after the same situations i guess..
Regards,
Carty..
i had a similar situation after i used my device to send a text, turned the screen off then turned it back on immediately, i had some strange screen with all different coloured pixels and it looked broke as hell, but i merely just pressed the power button on and off and it was fixed again :S
Yes i have the same problem and have no idea what is causing it. The most frustrating thing is when it happens my alarm does not go of... I would realy like a fix for this.
phew! It has happened once with me, and frankly it scared me a bit. Removed the battery and then it was Ok again. Weird behaviour. I don't think it has anything to do with heat tho.
I had the same issue too and I had to perform a soft reset fer it to work but after a week the touch screen of mine stopped workin no idea why i had to give to the service center fer repairs they told me it wud take a week to repair it rite now I am without a diamond
Something like the screen shots below?
I've had this problem for quite a while. If you disable Touchflo3d, you will not have this problem at all. This issue only concerns the 3d gpu.
I've since updated to v1.93 Olinex SPL and its more stable now, thou I still get it once a while, especially after a long period of not touching the phone (e.g. when sleeping).

xperia failure: optical joystick, standby screen, illumination

what the H E 2x L is happening to my phone?
the today screen frequently freezes but the os still works. Take battery out, wait a few seconds, replace push power (lost the stylus).
so the screen turns off (standby). just kidding its actually glowing black or dark blue or something draining my battery. i messed with the power settings and backlite settings and im pretty sure it has absolutely no effect watsoever the screen is just as brite.
now the illumination doesnt work. at least, when the phones on. when its charging and off and i just put in the battery i think it flashes green. other than that nothing. settings are normal i tried testing it under settings, no success.
the optical joystick wasnt working, so i went to settings, turned it on and it was all good, until the today screen froze again. now i turn it on and off and nothing. reset the phone and still nothing. on top of that the lights on the bottom around the diamonds dont lite up either.
conclusion: i dont kno watsup with my phone, i think theres something up with the top slider part cause the problems are isolated there. operating works fine, except the freezes.
help please?
do you guys think it might have to do with the registry?
Hard reset.... if problem is still there, come back and ask again.

Screen Distortion Problem

Hi, I've started to have this problem yesterday afternoon and I don't know what to do.
Whenever I turn the screen on everything is distorted, with white and black lines going all across the screen. After putting the phone in sleep mode and going back to the lock screen multiple times, the screen fixes itself. When I look at the screen in landscape mode the same thing happens. I'm not sure if this is a hardware problem or something else because sometimes when I drag the notification bar down, that seems to fix the screen itself. Any solutions? I tried searching all over for an answer but couldn't find any.
Thanks.
bump..Someone help please?
Sounds like a hardware problem, loose cable of some sort I would guess. Try to wipe and flash any 1.6 roms to rule out the bad 2.1 rom. Not likely but worth a try.
Good luck.

Help; the screen

Hello hello, for like 30 minutes ago something bad occured to my phone..
The screen got black, both in landscape and in normal mode.
For like a month ago I dropped the phone on the floor, and the landscape mode, when opening it I had to push it a little harder than normal, not that dangerous I thought, until now.
For like 30 minutes ago, I couldn't close the whole screen so I pushed it harder than normal and the problem occured, the screen got black.
The phone is turned on, I can hear sound from it by pushing the sound volume.
Please, does any1 have a clue what the problem is, or how to fix this?
Yours.
probably something similar

Thank you for the reply, but when I looked at it, they had a similar problem not exactly the same as mine.
They only have the problem when the screen is in landscape mode, I have the problem even if the keyboard is in or out..
I also noticed something, that the touch screen still works?
I can hear sounds when touching the screen.

**HELP**Lock button permanently locks

I have a strange problem, well a few. If I lock my phone (C6903) using the physical button I can't unlock it again. I try for about 5-10 minutes sometimes and it just wont work. If I hold it down I can feel it vibrate as if it's bringing up the power menu but the screen just stays black. Eventually it will randomly wake up then I can play around as normal. If I leave it to lock itself I can unlock every time, fist time no worries. This is what pointed me to it being a SW problem rather than a hardware problem.
I also noticed that when I do have the screen turning off in the dark, I can see that the screen is still lit up! Just it is black, not completely asleep. It's really quite bright when I have it next to the bed. Also when I am outside I can't see the screen at all really, even with the brightness turned right up.
It's really strange all these happened about the same time. I figured maybe it was a ROM problem and a fresh install of stock ROM would help. Tried it and at first most of these problems went, just the fact I still couldn't really see the screen in the sun. I tried another ROM and at first was just the same but then these problems started again.
Has anyone had any or all of these problems or got any ideas what it could be? I am left thinking now that the problem is more likely hardware related as the problems are so sporadic and happen whatever I have installed.
Any help / suggestions would be appreciated but I have the feeling I will have to just admit the phone is dogged
You say that most of the problems desapararecen to install a new ROM, it is likely that installing something extra to be the cause, I was introduced me something similar with Expoxed Notifications Module.
Try a clean installation without installing test applications to determine if the problem recurs.
Thanks, yes I guess I will try that, bit of a pain having to reinstall apps after every install and restoring messages etc so I might just put up for now.
I also have realised that the screen not turning on and the screen staying on but black happen at different times. i.e. I can now randomly turn the screen on and off no problem (don't think I have installed or deleted any apps or changed anything), but the screen stays awake when off. When I was last not able to turn the screen back on after turning off the screen actually went to sleep. Very strange
