White Screen

Hello All,

I have a question, its not really a big problem cause it only happens once in a while.
Once in awhile when I close my phone the screen will freeze up and fade to a white screen. Does anyone know why it does that? All I have to do is reset the phone and then it works fine.

Thanks

Don't know why mine did that, but one did. I just had it replaced, they said it was a hardware issue.

I have this issue, but only if I am playing a video in tcmp and either exit with the video playing, or hit the power button with a video playing (or loaded for that matter). Is there anything in common when it happens?

I was able to get my phone to reliably reproduce this error by "slightly" pressing on the keyboard when the phone was open... supposedly has something to do with a loose LCD cable... my apache seemed like yours as far as "coming back" after a reset, but I wouldn't be surprised if it DIDN'T come back either... apaches are old, and most are showing their age. It might be time to consider an upgrade, however, your milage may vary.

Did You Upgrade To Wm 6? Cuz It Could Be That You Put Too Much Into The Rom

+1 to the last post... sounds like too much in the RAM...... can't be a hardware issue if it's fixed by a reset.... might also be slight moisture damage, I'd throw it in some rice, lol.
