Xperia TL Screen doesn't turn on!

My AT&T Xperia TL screen isn't turning on. It happened all on a sudden. Phone is all stock - never been dropped. Phone still works as I can hear camera shutter clicks by pressing the camera button. I can also hear other notification sounds. The display itself just doesn't work. Interestingly, I saw the backlight once or twice during startup as I restarted it 7/8 times. Screen never came on though.
Already repaired twice through PC companion - didn't make any difference.
Any help would be appreciated!

Take it back to the shop. If its stock, not been damaged and you have done the official repair, get them to replace it.

Thanks! Problem is I have to ship it to their repair center and it'll take a while to get my phone back. I was wondering I could probably try out something on my own if it's some kind of software glitch. Even though, it's more likely to be a hardware issue - then I'm gonna have to take the longer path.
I'm a bit of surprised. This is my 10th Sony (Ericsson) phone in last 5 years. I have never had any issue till now and I really take good care of my phones.
Did anybody experience this problem?

I have not seen any threads on here work a similar problem

Try holding all the buttons for 10 seconds or the power button alone if I remember. This happened to my brother once and had to perform this to get it back working

I've got the same problem with a Xperia T! The annoying thing is that the phone has just come back from the Sony repair centre.... Never had this problem before... 3 or 4 times in a day the display doesn't turn on and I have to force a soft reset, but the phone still vibrates, still receives messages and the notification LED works! I guess those idiots messed up with something during the repair.... It's gonna be the third time i send them the phone and they keep giving it back with a different problem! Tired of these retards, I hope that they can give me a new device... This one's fu**** up...

It's probably a software related issue, as always

If it is completely stock, it seems to be a hardware problem. Either mainboard or a fault in power circuit. You should consider returning it for repair.

thanks for answers, after a little playing with it i don't have any idea how but it got to safe mod and was running ok, and when i rebooted it got stuck again, no idea how again it booted ok! this happened before but after a few seconds buttons blinked and a pop out said press and hold home button to restart and a count down for 3 seconds!
I guess the problem was with volume key/power button that got stuck !? because when i got into recovery and was fast enough to pres volume down the power button random ally worked ! after googling i got to phone but flashing bright light into sensors and covering it ! this is ridicules but worked few times and phone boots fine to OS with sensor covered! it turned off again after some time but i turned it on again with covering light sensor again and hasn't acted weird yet ! (my father also dropped hes phone and volume button place is damage a little)
this is the weirdest thing that ever happened to me why is it acting like that? he's phone is out of warranty so he can't do anything anyway!

As I said, it probably is defective. After the mentioned drop, something might be broken. The only way out will be repair service, warranty or not...

XT1095 suddenly switched off and wont boot

I have a problem with my Moto X 2014 - XT1095. Phone was fully charged and in the morning suddenly went off and wont come back on after that. I have been over 24 hours now without a phone.
I have tried to force restart and done external factory reset as mentioned here: https://motorola-global-portal.cust...prod_answer_detail/a_id/101072/p/30,6720,9197 and the same problem is still there.
When I press and hold the volume down button and the power button at the same time while plugged, a green light blinks briefly in the middle of the top speaker grill and nothing more happens.
This phone is about 6 months old. Can anyone help me solve this problem and get the phone back?! :crying:

It sounds like your battery died and might need replacing. Does it attempt to charge?

When plugged to the mains, nothing happens but when plugged to the computer, green light briefly show up in the middle of the top speaker grill and computer makes that connecting sound.
Cant also get to boot Mode Selection Menu

Please give us some details. Which rom did you use? It was a custom rom or the stock one? Did you have an unlocked bootloader? Did you have installed a custom recovery or not?

I was having stock ROM, never rooted and no unlocked bootloader. This is a vanilla device and totally untouched.

Using moto's charger, charge your phone for about 2 hours. After this time and while your phone charging, press and hold power button for about 3 minutes and see if your problem solved by this way.

Maybe i'll have to do this again but unfortunately that hasn't helped earlier when I was advised to do this by Moto's support rep

I have tried that again @Jim_C30 several times and the phone is still dead. Any hope for this phone anymore?
Would have been nice if the computer recognise the phone and at least can try and flash a ROM to it

Without charger hold the Volume Down and the power button together for at least two minutes. Is there any difference?

thanks @Jim_C30 for your assistance. Unfortunately no difference ?

Is your phone under warranty? I read that is only 6 months. Why don't you visit a Motorola Service Center?

well yes that's where I've got problems... bought the phone in the US and I'm now in the EU so warranty only works in the US. Sending it to the US is impossible because of lithium battery inside the phone ?

I am more than sure that the warranty is global. Make a question at motorola but i think that i am right. The warranty is global not only at the place you bought the phone. They could find anything by your imei.
Do it, don't be scared!
Just make a question...

thanks I've asked already Motorola before I came here for assistance. They said it is having only US warranty. Motorola's warranty isn't global anymore unfortunately. I've to send the phone from here to the US for repairs - this is just terrible from Motorola.

exactly the same problem here and at the same moment, yesterday morning

I have the same problem here. Do you find any solution ?
It is stock ROM, never rooted and no unlocked bootloader.

Solved for me :laugh::laugh:: I disconected the battery for about 10 days. Then I conected it again and with the solution " press and hold the volume down button and the power button" but for about 3 minutes, and MAGIC
I've tried this like 5 o 6 times during 2 weeks but at first I only saw the green led on at the top of the screen and a vibration but finally it tuned on yesterday!
This problem was produced after two hard resets due to the hard battery draining cell stanby

Should I press and hold the buttons with the phone charging ? Or disconnect?

Screen not working after some minutes

Hi everyone I've got a big problem with my wife's Mi 5. After some minutes/hours of usage the touchscreen stops working and the only solution the make it work again is to reboot the phone (by keeping the power off button pressed).
I've tried some rom (MIUI stable, MIUI dev, Paranoid Android 7.3.0) but all of them have the same problem, someone has got the same issue?
I think it's not only an hardware problem because the touchscreen works most of the time... Any ideas?

I'm having the exact same problem with my wife's Mi5 too. I thought she was talking rubbish until I started using the phone full time over the past few weeks.
Symptoms:
Screen switches on and accepts one touch event.
Screen is then unresponsive to touch events.
All other buttons (home, power, volume) all work OK.
All functions work OK (calling, SMS, etc) via remote control (MyPhoneExplorer)
Screen then becomes responsive again after reboot
Tried so far:
Clearing dalvik/cache
Clean flash - using MiFlash and China dev ROM
Opened phone, cleaned all ZIF connections and reconnected.
It almost feels like something in the touch firmware or driver crashes and does not reconnect - as the phone is clearly usable save for the touch panel.
I'm going to ask Bruno/bgcngm and see if there's anything I can do to try and diagnose the issue.

In my case unresponsive screen to touch events, all phisical button works and the only option to make it works again is to reboot. I didn't try to use it with some "remote" control.

I didn't try to open the phone, but I installed all roms with TWRP and format data/wipe cache/dalvik before.

Well on my old mi4c i had similar problem. I mean sometimes when i pressed power button and tried to unlock it screen didn't work. For me solution was simply to press power button again to turn off screen and then turn IT on. Maybe this will help u. Have u try that ?

Do you think it's something related with Doze or standby? I think so because today (and yesterday and so on...) I wasn't able to turn off the wake up alarm (the phone was in standby with the screen off all night) with "the screen" but I have to force restart the phone with the button... and it's very annoying.
Maybe we can try with some Marshmallow ROM instead Nougat one.

I'm facing same issue.I've changed my display panels but it doesn't solve my problem.it is quite painfull.i don't know what should i do.

any update sir?

My MI 5 has a different issue. There is no response if I place the phone on the table, but it is fine if I held it. It seems the touch panel is only responsive when the sort of sensors that a human is holding the phone. I have no idea why it starts to happen in these weeks. This symptom happens even in TWRP, so I don't think it is related some particular ROM. Tried firmware 7.7.6 ~ 7.9.22 with no luck.

skip lock screen
Hi
I know I am late to the party, but just faced the same issue yesterday. To bypass the issue, follow the following steps
1. Restart your phone .
2. Enable developer options from about section in settings. (google enable developer options for specifics)
3. In developer options, there is an option to skip screen lock. Enable that.
4. Voila!!
Hope it will help other mi5 users..

Hi,
I had the same problem. I found this video and I tried to fix it. It worked pretty well. Bye

In a situation that I can't do any service for my Mi5 as of now - is this really loose cable thing ?
Can more folks confirm that this cable solution from above video works ?
exactly same symtoms :
Random screen freeze - only option is to reboot phone or phone goes rebooting randomly itself.

Phone Screen Issue when on a phone call

I have a s10+ from tmobile with the latest update installed. I have an odd problem and am not sure if it is just me or the software. So when I place a call the screen is on of course. I then move the phone to my ear to take the call and of course the screen turns off. Now this is where the issue is. So while the call is still going on if I pull the phone back off my ear to be in front of me normally it should turn on the screen again, however it does not. No matter what I do, the only way to turn the screen on is to press the power button. Is this normal, because all my other Samsung phones did it correctly. Please let me know if this is a widespread issue / normal or if something is wrong with my phone specifically. Thanks!

You probably already restarted the phone, but what about turning it off, then back on? The proximity sensor on my S10e at times may take couple more seconds to show the screen after I move my phone away from the ear

Thanks for the reply. Yes I have tried restarting my phone no luck. Also when I pull it away from my ear I have waited 10 seconds or more and still nothing.
Anyone else, especially with a s10+ from tmobile with the latest update?

OK, well at least I'm not alone. So now if more people post maybe it is a software thing instead of my specific phone.

One thing that did seem to work for me earlier was to turn the phone face down then turn it back over and the screen came back on. I have only tested this twice though.
Sucks when you're in a call and need to use the keypad but the screen won't come back on.

Thanks for the reply. Yes it's very frustrating...
So I tried your suggestion and for me it doesn't work.
Looks like this might be an issue for several people just not wide spread. Time to exchange the phone.
