Strangest thing just happened to my phone.
I did a rollback to stock rom, and after that, I suddently see the LG boot screen logo blinking in the background all the time
Even after a reset of the phone...
Anyone seen that before?
I'm going to re-flash the phone again btw, it's too annoying to look at...
Thank God for backups...

Hey, I have been given a phone off a friend to fix but it wont turn on. Booting normally, I get a vibration and then the backlight comes on but i cannot see anything. When i try to boot into the bootloader by holding the camera button and powering it on, the backlight comes on but nothing else. I cannot see the bootloader. Under both circumstances, I cannot turn the phone off. I have to pull the battery to turn it off.
Does anyone have any suggestions about a possible fix? Thanks
Havie you tried send when trying to enter bootloader? If it resets then you can still get to bootloader. If not, your friend has soft bricked and only way is to JTAG which takes strong hardware knowledge and steady hands.

ok im having the exact same problem. actually i thought it was a battery problem so i spent 77$ on a 3700 mAh new batter i guess tripple life... and got it yesterday booted gave same problems. black screen where T-Mobile should be yet the rom loads with scribble screen meaning u see part but it looks like the pixels are messed up. so actually decided to resort to what someone told me a Factory Reset so Pressing Camera + Power i got a Black Backlight screen yet wont show... and I cant turn it off without Taking out the Battery this has become a issue after installing cyanogen 5.0.7 T5... since then i Re-rom'd to superbad 1.2.5 same problem screen scribbles and stops im thinking did I fry it i dont even know how to google my problem because its pretty unique it isnt a battery issue its something in the hardware ... or am I wrong please send us some feedback... ill keep this thread in mind
Sorry, what do you mean by 'send'. I am a complete noob when it comes to G1's. I have worked out i can shut off the phone by holding call + menu + end but thats it. I still cannot see anything at all on the screen. I still only get a vibration on boot. How would I know if the boot has been sucessful but i simply cannot see?
Could the flex ribbon cable be nackered?
Hi Guys, I put my G1 in the drawer after I got my SGS, and just took it out to wipe and give to my Mother. Battery fully charged btw, and i was running CM6 before (working perfectly)
now the device powers on, i can see the screen backlight is no but nothing happens, cant get into fastboot, cant get into recovery, no logos, but the thing is definitely powered(vibrates once).
any ideas?

i got the same with my dream.... still dont know whats wrong
maybe your screen is bad?
It started about 30mins ago, was on a call which the screen locks off when u on a call like stand by, but when ending the call the screen would turn on back no matter what. anyways i took out the battery thinking maybe the roms just buggy or the battery dead since it was on low. puttin back the battery the phone wouldnt turn on, took it out and tried again same result.
so i put it on charged nothing, gave it about 2mins charge it came on, but the boot screen with the X just had some green pixel dots all over and horizontal lines for about 3 secs then back to normal, but the phone wont boot pass that.
took out the batteries again, back in then try boot into fastboot or bootloader but nothing, just the boot screen, then the rom booted after waiting, took longer than normal. so i turned it off and try the bootloader or fastboot but it wont load just the rom, so i restarted to recovery mode from the rom it worked, turn off and try bootloader or fastloader mode they worked, now it seems all working fine, also my touchscreen is responding perfectly and the rom loading ok.
but anytime i boot the phone the bootscreen has the green pixels and lines just the same. im abit worried as i dont want things getting worse, is there anyway to fix this, is it some virus? could i just flush everything and start over???
any help would be greatful, thanks.

You guys think updating my radio from 4.06 to probably 5.08?
Almost similar with few different colors but I dropped my n1. It took me almost a day to see that the LCD was broken. Turn off the phone or screen and look in sunlight. They really were hard to notice and I showed to 4 different peoples whom all failed to notice until I showed them. Hope yours is just a minor software problem.
well i just check its not broken and it didnt fall from me so im guessing its software but im wondering if it can fix but i dont wanna flash my phone and things get worse or even brick my phone, so im asking before i try anything more.
plz help....was using Zeus v6.39n overclocked to 1100Ghz and underclocked to 200Mhz..downloaded some Lg stuff from Heuxx's blog(car home & smartshare)...rebooted my phone to flash it and it won't boot after that....tried everything, no use...then finally use smartflash and flashed to v20B....phone booted and I was installing my apps...after some time the display went off as it got locked while I was not using and now its not coming on....Iam getting calls and messages and the LED lights are blinking but the screen is blank...tried reflashing....now its not booting at all....NO LG logo also...although I can see the LED blinking...plz help
try flashing with smartflashtool again
i think it might be your lcd itself or the cable
i have alredy flashed 2-3 times....also after I remove the battery and put it back and switch it on, I can hear the sound of LG animation like when it comes in stock and the led lights are blinking normally as it happens during powering up...But the screen remains dark...
sumthing happened to ur screen then... if u still have ur warranty then bring it to them.
if it's because of the screen then they will replace it for ya
thanx....I went to the customer care...they also tried flashing(I guess)...then they told me that its not due to software but hardware problem and that they will replace and give next week
This morning during a call my phone shuts off for no reason. It is not rooted no physical or water damage. I tried to power it on it will vibrate than attempt to start get stuck at boot screen than eventually turn black. I tried booting into recovery to hard reset I will get to the menu do all the prompts and get the lg logo and back to black screen. I don't know what is going on. Is this a common issue? Admins if this is in the wrong section feel free to move it.

Not sure what caused the issue but if wiping from recovery doesn't work I would look into restoring phone with kdz file. Sucks to do that seeing as all data will be gone but hopefully you have a backup. If restore doesn't work you need to call T-Mobile for replacement

The replacement has been processed. Unfortunately trying to factory ? reset doesn't work because the phone ? wouldn't stay on long enough for that to happen. Love to know what actually caused this issue. Kinda kicking myself for not doing a weekly backup.
I actually got the same problem on mine but mine is rooted and was working fine but then randomly my phone is doing bootloop. I don't have terp installed and I'm I only able to boot up to software upgrade mode. Ive tried the step for format everything with holding the volume up n on button but after I did the reset stuff still does boot loops. Also another problem is that whenever I plug in phone to computer it doesn't show up, so I have no option to add roms or anything like tht to internal or sd card. Is there anyways too flash anything of the software mode, if so can you plz let me know thank you.
