yesterday, my cellular's screen, sometimes, get back normal but if you use too much he appear the white screen, i guess it was by the overclock i've made when i've put the doomkernel, but everyone said the 1,6ghz was the max the proc. can handle and now i'm outta options.
I hope that anyone can help-me. :/

This is actually a common problem that happens to xperia devices. It's the flex cable that's busted. Here's a link to where you can buy a new one

By the way the lines run accross the screen it looks like the cable to your screen is loose and is not longer attached all the way.

It's actually less of making the cable loose, and more about the friction from the plastic on the track. Every time you slide out your game pad, you are fraying the cable a bit. After time, your phone gets that white screen.

i was thinking that it is the flex cab that was busted but the cel's boot shows normal, appears the DooMLorD logo, but get stuck in this, if i lock n unlock the cel, it shows that screen i have attached... waiting a answer to make my move...

my R800at did the same thing . white weird screen but still operates fine. i ordered the ribbon and yes installed correctly. same problem it didnt fix it. i too installed a custom rom and it went white shortly after. im just asking someone to think out of the box on this one. i love the work you do here saved my butt a hundred times. i inspected both cables and even sent my old one back in my return package and got a refund . It looked like the other no fraying or any unexpected wear and tear.
