I forget something....................I can turn it on when i take the 4 screws out from the phone.... and when i put them again in the phone it turn off again ....why the screws turn it off ....do you think that  there is a part is not in the correct place????? please help me

It sounds like the phone internal components are not positioned correctly with the case. Try making sure everything is aligned properly.

You can try using a flash light to look through the hole to pinpoint the tabs. Its forward towards the power button.

Please find the larger image of the back cover here: http://www.digimissi...s/detailed2.jpg

I too have the same problem of the white screen, just like yours mine just went white one day.  I have tried opening up my phone, but i dont know what the connecter is supposed to look like, if anyone could explain it in a little more detail that would be great.

THANKS

It sounds like you have a loose LCD ribbon. Behind the LCD screen there is a connector for the ribbon. Flip up the dark grey tab on the connector to loosen the ribbon. Push the ribbon back in, close the tab to secure the ribbon.

If you choose to open your phone please do so carefully.

Thanks a lot. I just did it - good instruction!

Hopefully everything will be fine, time will tell.

well ive done it, thankyou, luckily im based in a car plant, and they use 3m tape, so coming by some was easy!!.
Took me about half an hour, but most of that was trying to fix the  volume button on the earpiece, which i still cant do, as the contact has snapped....
all i need now is the registry values to alter the volume, and its all good

tried them instructions on my SPV C500 just after few hours after getting it..it wasnt new hence had a good bit of dust in it..so i thought, what the hey, lets try that.
Reassembled the phone, all connections intact, and guess what... WHITE SCREEN (keypad lights up too)
so i was wondering, has anyone come across any solution to that yet? Please let me know, your help will be appreciated.

Just wanted to say thank you for the dust fix repair tip! Great forum too :-D

Although I have a problem now that i tried to disassemble the phone again..  (it was harder the second time since I used double-sided tape)

After putting it back together, the LCD backlight does not function anymore :-( I do not know if I broke something on the PCB or if it's the loose LCD ribbon (which causes the white LCD display as I have followed above)

Can anybody help  me with this problem ? I would really appreciate it!

And for tips taking the phone apart, Be VERY careful! :-P
