IT MAY BE HAVING SCREEN PROBLEM, SO NEED TO NEED TO REPLACE WITH NEW ONE

Hello,

The problem with your phone is just flex problem, the flex on the screen of your phone is weak or worn out, this is a common problem among slide or flip phone.

What you need to do is to replace the flex on the screen of your phone, you can get this done by going to any local phone repairer within your vicinity to help get it fix or replace.

Once the flex is replace, your phone display problem is solve and the screen will start displaying.

Take care.

check if the time on the phone is correct, if it is, ask the sender for the original time the message was sent.because messages get delayed by the network sometimes.

if it does not correspond then the problem is from the network.

take note if it happens all the time, then you contact your customer care center for your network service provider.

goodluck

it crapped out either the system software or the switch that recognizes when its flipped open -- shut the phone down.. crack it open a few centimeters so u can kinda see the screen i.e less than a 1/4 the way open , using a toothpick or something similar use that to press the power button, wait and the phone should load up. note allow it to completely load to the main screen and try to navigate the software while still in this position you may be able to flip it open to work it more comfortably but definately WRITE *pen/paper* your important info from the phone i.e #'s and ect.. and prepare to buy another phone

Call your provider.

I hope that when you say blank it means partially lit, with a kind of background, but no image.
This solution is not for an abused phone, as it does not seem to be mechanical, or due to a loose connection. It rather seems like a firmware failure. It will not make your phone usable, instead, it will enable you to retrieve your saved numbers. Once these cheap things start failing they become disposable.
Tried removing battery: No cigar. Tried opening it carefully (under 90 degrees) still no solution.
Here's what worked for me. Phone off, either by powering it down of by having removed the battery.
Get a toothpick, and with the phone CLOSED in the off position, pinch the power-on button and let the phone come on closed. It may not work the very first time, but you should be patient. Once it comes on, you can do just about anything with it until you power it down.
**Make sure you have charged your battery prior to this, since will be spending some time retrieving your numbers**

Good Luck!

mymomcallsme solution works, I had the problem, removed battery fer a while, viola! Screen is back. Thanks mymomcallsme

if you never changed your unlock code it could be the last 4 digits of your phone number or the standard 0000 or 1234. could also be 6 digit code 000000 or 123456 or 654321.

if your changed your lock code you may need to contact your cell phone service provider for the master lock code or phone reset password.

don't forget to have your account info ready when you call.

what did you do

I had same problem, I found if you do not open phone past 90 degrees from keypad, screen will stay lit and is usable, but when fully open, screen shuts off after a few seconds, apparently a faulty connection when fully open. I use mine like this, with a backstop attached to phone body to prevent it from opening more then 90 degrees, and after a few months, it is still working.

well you are going to have to get a life then HA HA HA HA HA HA H AH A AH

To reset it you have to take the battery out for a short time, a minute or so. I am also having problems with mine turning on and charging. I have also heard that the battery life is not good.
Hope this helps some.

Hi,

I had this problem once and on my phone I would get one ring and then it would stop. Checking the phone I saw I missed a call. I live in the mountains of Puerto Rico and I believe what is happen is the network plays the rings for the caller but the phone isn't doesn't get the signal or start ringing until 3 or 4 rings later. In other words the caller has already heard 4 or 5 rings and has given up. While you have heard only one ring and when you got to the phone you already missed the call. I told my friends to let it rings more then 5 times before giving up and that worked.

This phone cannot recieve picture messages because it's not a camera phone. With this phone company only camera phones can recieve picture messages.

Shine a bright light on it and see if you can see and resemblance of the display on the screen. If you can see a display, the backlighting on the screen is broken - if you can't see a display, it's likely the screen is broken or the display controller is broken. Backlight would be the cheapest fix, usually. Also, you should be able to transfer your phone numbers over to a new phone by using the same SIM card so long as the phone numbers were stored on the SIM card - the only way to find out is to put it in another phone and check out the address book.
