No screen...how do i change it back??

Hey guys,
I stupidly dropped my phone in water and awaiting it to dry out, i cant take it back to the store yet as havent changed the ROM back as cant see the screen. Is there anyway of doing it without having to know off by heart the on screen instructions. The screen doesnt seem to repond to anything either. I get the vibrate to tell me its on and that about it, sometimes the SE logo in full oclour before it all blurs and becomes a mash of colour.
I have the stock ROM ready to upload (as kindly retrieved from here) but dont know how to go about changing it now.
Cheers

take urx1 to consumer care center and ask them to look after for u！

Is that a dig at my predicament

eu sorry for my poor english! u use the word “dig”？ does it means know orunderstand？ or sth else？or a slang？

yep best wishes to ur xperia！

I say, do it by yourself !
First buy the LCD screen (example) Then watch this video and go on, just be gently and organized

If I gently tap my phone's case i feel a vibration from inside

Made my day LOL

Hahahahaha

O.O..Sorry if my english is bad and make you funny but mine is a serious question..
I think that the hardware of vibration is not set up correct in my phone and take me the sensation i described in the first post.
Any serious answer?

Now that you mention it...
I don't think it's a hardware fault. It's probably meant to happen.
knowledge is Power. Guard it well.

I don't think its a genuine concern.
I think most of us misunderstood your question.

Mate, mine does the same thing. Sometimes if I knock it gently in my pocket I think it's vibrating for a new sms or email!
I think all that is inside our phones is just a giant spring

It's the same for mine too, and it was the same on my old Nokia as well. Never really worried me, springs must be what people want these days....

yup same here. completely normal on all sgs

[Q] Touch lag!?

Hello all
I have a problem. I've installed miniCM10 JB 4.1.1. Everything was fine. I got smooth scrolling and my favorite game fruit ninja was running well. But as I set min CPU level to 245 to avoid the black screen bug, when unlocking, somthing whent wrong I think. I stared to have, buttons highligts, as thay are not touched. Picture scrambles, for a second for time to time. And fruit ninja has a heavy, I mean heavy lag. The game itself is running smooth, but touches appear after 3 to 5 seconds later. And some times touches are even not detected. I've experemented with various of options, in performance and developer options menu, no success. The menus and the ui are running smooth.
After that, i've restored the stock rom, via flash tool and stock kernel. Updated the phone via PC Companion, the phone running well, but even with the stock rom, I am getting the touch problem. Way ligher then it was in JB but is there. I've deleted any ext partitions on the sd card. Then flashed the alfs 8 kernel and installed GingerDX as it running perfectly on my phone, and the lag is the same as JB in fruit ninja. Other runnig smooth. Screen view is moving, even in recovery. Like you are not fixed your tv antena, and the picture is not centered but is shifted to the middle of the screen. In the upper side I see the bottom of the screen, if you can understand what I mean. So I am feeling that I have some hardware issue I guess. Any ideas.
Thank you very much.

I think that its a h/w issue.
Take your phone to SE.

Yes, it is a hardware problem......I had the same problem - lag in touches, random touches etc. and now the touch is not working at all.:crying:
Your best option is sending it to Sony....:good:

Well it realy smell like HW problem. But the X8 is no more in warranty. So, what do you think will be the price for such repair.

dust in digitizer connector??

Possible, but I don't know where is the digitizer. I suppose I must remove the front panel, but I don't know how. I see there are some six corner screws on the back of the panel.

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..

I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.
WBR

Oh right, fair enough then. I thought it was brand new and you'd just taken it out of the box.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly
so i thought to get some ideas if it could be calibration data or something, as i have already flashed it but it didn't yield any result..

wait wait, you did all of it? first off, please check the manufacturing date of the phone... get the back cover, get the battery and you shall find your manufacturing date like example (10W45, 11W30) do it

no it 12W07

I'm sorry to tell you that you have hard bricked your phone, 11W29+ devices are too risky to have the bootloaders unlocked, you will need to send it to the nearby repair center as you can do nothing to fix it, you should have visited the stickied posts here in x8 general section before you followed the steps in the video
