Now it wants to die? Blank screen

[VidJunky]

I have two months left until I can officially upgrade, not that there is anything I want or any good rumors for that soon, but that is all beside the point. The point is, now that we hopefully have the whole KeyRing/Sense has unexp... problem solved, thanks Ross, and I have my new uncracked digitizer installed the phone wants to go out? it's like I can't win, and I don't want to invest any more money in the thing just to turn around and hand it to my kid in like two months. The story: Tuesday the LCD seemed to stop working, and I hesitated, but caved and ordered a new one. After all the phone took a nasty fall and the LCD was a little damaged. The digitizer on the other hand was crushed. I replaced the digitizer and everything was so-so. The phone would get really hot, the screen would dim as though I was using some type of battery saver mode, and the light sensors at the top of the phone had a clear window. It was so ugly. If you are OEM your sensors are behind a dotted/opiate window. Plus the nit picky in me could see all of the stuff I trapped between the digitizer and the LCD. I fixed that when I repalced the LCD tonight. It's pretty close to OEM. Close. Otherwise nothing big. Then all the Sense stuff, and now this. I started this thread because I couldn't remember what search terms I used to attempt to gain some insight into my blank screen issue. I wanted to just go back and post on their threads but I couldn't find them. Anyway I know there are others out there looking for away to access their blank LCD phones, and I found one that works great. Two things to mention however, you have to have USB Debugging enabled, which if you can't see stuff on your screen may be a problem. The other thing is no root is required. I saw more then a few that required root, but not SDK. Not sure what the deal is but that seemed to be a notable point. Now I don't know if I would have done this had I not needed to access my blank phone, but if you are looking for something to do it's kind of neat. I just don't know any practical use for it since you can already take screen shots independently with the phone. I guess you can take video if you wanted, but the frame rate is really slow. 9 fps? Meanwhile I would like to thank strider196 for your YouTube post. A little dialogue would have been helpful but it worked perfectly like two or three steps and there it was. Thank you. I would also like to thank the developer Jens Riboe. Your app saved me. It is very appreciated. You may have just made it possible for me to keep a little green in my pocket until I can upgrade. At least postpone the expense until I might be better off. I hope this helps someone.

you post was a little wordy so i may have missed something. i will address one thing. if your phone is overheating that is dangerous. heat can also kill a battery and cause the screen issues.

It was meant to be funny. So yeah it was a bit wordy. Anyway I have like 6 batteries and so far the screen doesn't work with any of them. In the meantime I'm getting by. Reconnecting with real people instead of phone people. Thanks for the insight, have a good one.
