[Q] Sony Ericsson Xperia ray - Blank/Black screen issue

So, I personally taken my Ray to the repair center, and guess what, since they "couldn't fix it" (I think they had no repair parts for it), since the wait was going to be very long and Sony has a policy for a maximum of 3 weeks wait, they told me that I could have it replaced with an Arc S. And I obviously said yes, as going from Ray to Arc S is a massive upgrade in every way.

I guess Sony isn't too bad after all when it comes to customer service. I had my Xperia S fixed in just one hour for the yellow screen issue, and they gave me a car charger for free, now they are replacing my crappy old and busted Ray with an Arc S.

All they need to do now is release a JellyBean update for the XPS that isn't a bugged pile of **** and I'll be a very happy Sony Mobile customer.

Just sent it to repair shop.hope they can fix it..

sorry for bumping, but i am curious, cuz i have the same problem with xperia ray. did they repair your phone, and what was the problem (hardware or software)?

any solution??

is there any solution for this?

I am starting to think that this is hardware problem. I've tried flashing every custom kernel and custom rom there is for xperia ray, android custom roms, stock roms, muiu, firefoxOS but problem persist.

Mine is starting normal when is unused for 10+ hours, and when I want to lock/unlock, the screen goes blank.

Is it motherboard, LCD screen, kernel....

in attach there are logcat and dmesg from successfull starts.

The problem is this one explained here: talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-ray/FATAL-Ray-Problem-After-ICS-4-0-4-update/td-p/179784
And the solution is changing the motherboard, nor the screen or the kernel...

It's an overheating problem but I have find a quick & different solution: press very fast the power on button 8-10 times and the screen will come back visible. I have tested for different day on the xperia ray opf my brother and it's work all the time.

Bye

I solved my problem with changing LCD screen.
Now its like a new phone.
