Yes both Left & Right softkeys together and pres the stylus into the reset holes and hold for a couple of secs. Then follow onscreen instructions.
ya but the screen is a blank black screen so i cant see anything ><
Do what he says, and if you did it well (i.e. didn't fat-finger on other keys than the 2 you need to press) it would NOT load the OS, so you must see the "instructions" appear immediately. Or your screen would be dead.
okay i did that and then it rebooted and i redid the screen calibration and then it did the update afterwards it softreseted automatically and i got stocked. after the bars again black screen appeared. grrrrrr

Go to bootloader screen press and hold camera button and soft reset. Then reflash rom. Make sure you hard reset after flashing; before set up.

so all of a sudden my cdma heros touch screen got messed up. I tried restarting the phone and where it used to say android at the boot screen is just a blank screen now. It does restart but i am stuck at my lock screen. If i touch my screen at all it freezes up. I cant even click one dot on the lock screen. I can receive calls but the screens blank and my hard buttons work. Also i cant go into recovery and i tried wiping my storage by holding the home button and back key but when i go through with it, it does not hard reset and all of my settings are still their an i get stuck at lockscreen after restart. can anyone please help me out?
I did a factory reset from the settings menu and and while it was reseting it randomly turned off. I thought that means it was done and I needed to start it back up. After I tried to press the power button I get no response. A complete black screen and not even the M logo. I tried charging it overnight and it still has a black screen. Any help please?
Edit: Apprently it works now right after posting on XDA...
I've had my Nexus One for some time now, and i'm having a problem with it. Whenever i turn it on (sometimes i have to try more than once because it just stays black) it works ok, but when i lock it and try to unlock it (with the power button) the screen stays black. The action buttons at the bottom of the screen turn on but the screen stays black. I have CM 7.2 and i just flashed it and formatted all the partitions i could think of and it's still doing this.
If i call the phone after locking it, it will ring and the trackball flashes but the screen stays black.
Any help?
When the phone is on everything works fine.
P.S. I've searched the forums and found a few threads but none offer a good answer.
EDIT: If i leave it for like an hour or so i can turn the screen back on with the power button, but only once.
i have the same problem, am using the stock rom .. it happens after ending a phone call the screen stays black and i have to restart the device
waiting for solution !!
So I sideloaded 5.1 and was fine all day long. Was down to 8% then I notoced the 1% warning 30 seconds later. It shut down before I could plug it in. I booted up and everything seemed normal but the screen wouldn't turn on after the boot screen. I could take a screenshot and power it off but that's it. After a few times cycling it, It started going into the boot as it did when I first installed the update. Optimizing apps, I figured that would fix the problem but sa,e black screen. I tried booting into recovery mode. It just shut it down when I chose that option. I can see the time and unlock screen when I wave my hand over it. Unlocking it does nothing. I get red LED when I hit the power button one time.
I ended up doing a system wipe and it's back to normal now. I'd still like to know the solution in case it happens again.
If it happens again try first to reboot by holding power and volume down buttons for 10 seconds and/or wipe cash
I am having the exact same issue. Has anybody had a luck resolving it short of a factory reset?
My phone battery died last night. I plugged my phone in, let it get about 15% charge, then tried to turn it back on. The phone boots like normal, but after the boot animation goes away, the screen is black. Active notifications still seem to work, and I can hold the power button to get the Power Down option. I can boot into the bootloader & access recovery just fine. However, my phone is fully stock (no root, no bootloader unlock, no anything). I can't seem to access ADB when the phone is powered normally (ie, when I'm at this mysterious black screen), but it's possible that USB debugging isn't even enabled.
So far, I've found a bunch people who've said a full factory reset will fix the problem, but I'm looking for another solution, or at least a way to grab my data before I reset. Since my bootloader's still locked, I can't seem to use fastboot boot to boot into TWRP, and I can't find any other way to access my data to copy it off the phone. I've tried wiping the cache using the stock recovery to no avail. Any suggestions?

Please stop bumping up every topic that says black screen with the same copy and paste message. Once was enough!
