Multiple problems Neo V

I bought a Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V a couple of days ago. A few hours after playing around with it I noticed some problems. The problems I had were:

1) the Wi-Fi stops working and can not be turned back on. I have seen this in other blogs. Mine now works perfectly. (All I did was format my SD card and factory reset the phone).

2)SD card  issues. Phone suddenly stops reading SD card and tells me its no longer there. Also solved after SD formated for some reason.

3) Screen goes black but can see the light inbetween the keys below screen go on and off when I press the unlock key on the side (as if I am unlocking it and locking it again.)

pls help me out before I damage the phone.... Have opened it up to get the battery out so may times Dizzy_Face doesnt seem to get unstuck any other way. Turn it off to get it back up n running again.

I wanted to get all the problems I am having in 1 blog.

I get that when phone gets stuck. Screen locks on its own after a few seconds as usuall. Then try to unlock it but screen remains black. As I say, its as if the screen stays off but the lights inbetween the keys below the screen go on and off when I press the power / unlock key. Just like when I lock and unlock the phone when its working ok.

ok so the phone's screen doesn't turn on.

are you able to use the phone ? i mean this happens sometimes or you can't even see the screen ?

Are you on ICS or GB?

as soon as that happens to me I have to remove the battery, put it back in and start the phone up again. If I don't do that the phone does not respond to anything else apart from the power/lock key (that just makes the lights, previously mentioned work when I use it). Screen remains black so cant see anything else apart from the lights to give me a hint on whats going on.

when does this thing happen when you play any game ? or app?

Not applicable

Any time. Browsing homescreen, applications screen, downloading from Play store. Maybe it happens when it stays idle. Locks and when I try to unlock screen stays black? Sorry I cant be more precise. Its happened so many times 😕

maybe ICS is not installed properly ... you should do a software update using PCC Slightly_smiling_Face
