I managed to fix mine! It takes some doing and is probably not for the faint hearted. You have to disassemble the Ocean from the battery side, removing the qwerty keyboard, to gain access to the slider assembly.

Disassemble the slider (pay attention to the spring!) and clean all contacts and make sure all of the flex cables are seated completely. Mine was working OK the qwerty way, but was blank and/or garbled the long way. Now it works great!

my screen goes either blank (black, but with the backlight on) or garbly when i open it the long way, but works normally when opened the qwerty way. it just started doing this a couple of days ago. i called tech support and they think it needs to be replaced. lame!

Comment by jennyt71, posted on Nov 29, 2008

Mine just did this today - the screen shows ok when I slide it open sideways, but not when I open it long ways..??? Also in the past week, the small speaker stopped working, I can only hear people if I put them on speaker phone. :(

my ocean's backlight and keys are responsive. It's fully functional EXCEPT the screen is completely blank/black.
