Display does't light

Keon82 — Thu, 06 Sep 2012 12:02:58 GMT

Hi, couple of time I gone to unlock the display after a missed call and it doesn't work! The iluminated bar turned on but the screen remains off!!

The only solution is to remove battery,

Anyone knows this problem? Is there a solution?

...and sorry for my bad english...

This could be related to a software glitch, I suggest performing a software repair on the device, I have supplied a link below that will allow you to perform this task,

Is your problem similair to this?

Repair/Reset won't help in that case.

Yes it's similar, but my device did not overheats.

For battery I did not notice a consumption but it may depends that I remove battery in a few second after that.

Another time I switch off the phone at 20% battery and it will not turn on, when I connected to the charger and turned on the battery was at 1%!

I think I'll need to bring it in a Sony service center if it will happen again

Next time you notice this, wait a few minutes (that's all it takes here), and see if the battery heats up. If it does, you have the exact same problem.
