Screen gone blank, won't display nokia n96. the phone functions, but the screen remains black, and won't display anything.

My Nokia n96 does not start up.I had full battery power,I then recieved a call and the battery went flat.I charged it up now it won't start up.
When I press the start button,it gives the start up vibration and then the screen stays blank.The button in the middle is lit up.

ya seems this is a problem of display connector u can fix it by fitting the display connector by opening the cell if it doesn't work then also then replace ur display

The display circuit strip least probably is damaged or most probably is loose from the connector. in either way contact the local vendor to plug it back into the connector between screen n motherboard of the phone. it ll be fixed.

If your handset stop displaying them you know that, it is a LCD problem
The meaning of LCD is in the following details-Liquid, C-Crystals, and D-Display.
If it is a flip up phone, check if it is a detachable one, then you can replace the flex.
But, if it is not detachable flex, then you change the flex and the LCD.
If it is LCD without flex, you use another LCD. If it will display.
GOODLUCK

sir you will have to change your lcd.

I have a nokia n96 and i dropped it and the flip screen came away from the phone and ripped the strip connecting phone to flip sceen. how do i repair so i can retrieve my contact numbers

It is not a common problem. It seems that either the connection to the LCD is broken somewhere, or the LCD is going or the display IC has gone. It it is the last (display IC) then the phone has to be thrown away as even Nokia thinks it beyond economic repairs. Earlier two can be rectified by Nokia Care.

Try a different battery on your phone and try this battery elsewhere to ruleout a bad battery (yours). Your battery could be dead.

If formatting your phone doesnt help there are three possible problems in order of priority (1) your screen is gone and needs replaced (2) your ribbon cable is gone and needs replaced (3) phone needs flashed, I have repaired the first two above on many samsungs with this fault! Not an easy job! Hope this helps.

try reformatting your mobile phone. Sometimes, these phone hangs.
