Hey guys
I am really sad because my wildfire became handicapped today...
I was playing around with it surfing and playing games
Then I put it on the table played abit on the pc but when I picked it up again the screen didn't turn on when I press unlock I felt feedback so it means the phone works the screen isn't tried restart it vibrates but doesn't turn on screen...

What can be the cause?
Is it because I updated nightlys every two or so days?


Thanks

battery pull out, charge it, remove sim\sd... anything...

oh and forgot to mention

right before the screen died it went white then it never turned on again



is there a way to flash an rom to the wildfire without touching the device? i.e cable?

i currently have no screen but the device is alive...

Is your screen completely dead? Or only after booting? I.e can you see the bootamimation? Try booting into bootloader mode (volume down + power)

If your screen is completely dead it might be a hardware issue.

Yes perhaps it is in the wrong section but by posting that your basically spamming up the forum.

Anyway on topic i agree find out if it really is your screen or just a dodgy flash of a rom :)

Hmmmm you could get sdk and get mobile on pc screen.

not too sure but exhaust all avenues. Have you tried soft reset?
Vol down + power + trackball

In my experience with ipods, a white screen is usually a hardware issue (ie it needs changing), which seems to be consistent with what you experience (no startup logo).
I hope it is not the case for you, and that your problem will be solved by flashing a different rom.
