Same thing happened to my desktop monitor a few weeks ago... If it's only backlight and not the screen itself, you should still be able to see something by pointing enough light into it :)

Update ....after running back and forth from the window at the shop and the computer ive managed to flash back to stock and s-on and then had to flash a different RUU went from RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.27.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_192098_signed.exe to RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.29.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_193714_signed.exe and now its all good ....realy hate to sent this phone back its by far the best htc device ive owned .....just hope the replacment is a new one and not a refurb
