No backligth in SPV-M1000 - pls help

[Skipper_dk]

Hello,
I just became a owner of a SPV-M1000 - a sad owner :?
This device just dont want to turn on the backligth. I have been thou settings, manual, tried severel profiles ect. Still without resault. I could really use help on this one :cry:

I have not yet d/l any updates atall or patches yet and I really doubt that the backligth in this device is defect.

Also - I dont quite know wich model the "Orange SPV-M1000" is, but its is very identically with the third illustration from the rigth on this forum front page.

Best regards & Thank you,
Skipper

you can toggle the backlight by holding down the on off button for awhile
that is unless it's broken

I just learned a new future there - yes, but it did not solve my problem. I have now been in touch with a repairs shop and the technichian had a very hard time to belive that the display backligth was malfunctioning and that it must be a user error. I dont belive that..
A new display is pretty expensive and before I buy this i´d kinda hoped that someone else had a more experience know-how in this area before I purchases this.

Btw - if it comes to buy a new display do anyone know where on the net this can be done. I was thinking change it myselves.

:wink:

have you tried hardreseting it just to in case ?
if the backlight dont come on when it gets to the calibrate screen and such i would say it's defect
and if it's under warrenty first ½ year the orange guy have to prove that you broke it or give you a new one

I just bougt a used display from a companig that had the same model that had a damaged chassic - pretty cheap :D .. And it works, perfect.

Now I have to install all the latest software and drivers for both the device and computer. I will try look around the net for this but if you maby would be kind and guide me, would be great.

Thanks
