General :: Star N9776 JB - Phone Screen Goes Black When Calling
May 18, 2013
I bought a cheap (all I could afford) jelly bean Chinese Star N9776 phone 6" and on the whole have to report its great for the money. The only problem is that when I make a call or receive a call the ALS_PS sensor I think turns the screen off and it will not come back on until the call ends.
I have searched for answers and have found that this is a common problem. One thread suggested that if you enter the boot menu with the volume and power key you can sellect an option to disable this feature. However the menu is in Chinese !!

I have recently Bought an S9300 phone and when received all was working OK. And I was really happy with the phone. BTW the phone runs on Android 4.1.1 OS (MTK6577).After a week I started experiencing problems with the camera and gallery. The seller instructed me to reset factory settings. This didn't work.
Then he sent me the firmware so that I would Upgrade it. This has been done but know, after upgrading firmware, when I turn my phone on all I get is a blank white screen. Although the hardware seems to be responding to button commands, the blank white screen persists.
To Upgrade the firmware I used the Smart Phone Flash Tool.

4.7 "Android 4.0.4 MTK6577 1.2GHz 3G Smartphone Android Phone com Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, Capacitive Touch Model: 9930
Yesterday, i decided to factory reset my phone to wipe all data and i done that this way: Settings - Backup and Reset - Factory Reset. After this, my phone reboot and now the operative system does not launch. The screen lights on but doesn't do nothing, neather the logo appears. I've tried to pull out the battery, full charged it and some other things and remains the same.
I've tried to go to Recovery mode but i don't know how to access it in this chinese phone. I've tried Vol Down + Power Button, Vol Up + Power Button, Home + Power Button...doesn't do nothing, only black light screen.

A few months ago I bought two N8000 phones and I was glad they came with full Hebrew menus. But now I bought a device that came without Hebrew.
So I tried to update the version with this method bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.it/2012/05/mt6575-flashing-tutorial.html#comment-form
And now the device turns on and works, but the screen remains blank white.
I saw on the forum that people have asked for the problem and you told them they have to replace the DSP_BL file and reflash
The problem is that the links are broken and I can not find the appropriate version for me.
I have tried full and partial update with many versions:12.06.12 firmware.rar
20120705_e1808_v75_jbl1.zip
I downloaded also this tool SP_MDT software fot flashing.rar But I was unable use it
I downloaded also this two packages, (Taiwan101_STAR-N8000_V.05-1.zip + Taiwan101_STAR-N8000_ICS_V.09.zip) but they are not suitable for use with SP Flash Tool v3.1216.05 (they not have scatter.txt file)

I've had this problem in a few different apps now and I can't seem to find a solution.
If, in the onCreate() of an Activity, I start an activity that uses the dialog theme it doesn't draw anything to screen... the whole screen stays black. All the views are there (e.g., I can tap where an EditText should be and it'll give me the keyboard), they're just not visible. code...

My phone: Star B943 quad core MT6589, linux kernel 3.4.5, JB 4.2.1
At the phone start, deep sleep mode works fine, but as soon as i receive an email or SMS, the phone will never go back in powersaving mode. Just as if the service crashed and the phone still "Awake". I've tested several solutions and apps:
- Deep Sleep Battery Saver: Failed
- One power guard: Failed
- Powersaving tweaks from Pimpmyrom: Failed
Of course i've checked if a service or apps aren't involved in the problem, but there is nothing. I've checked with Betterbatterystats, wakelock detector...Deep Sleep mode just crash and never restart . And we are a several people in this case...
i imagine the gotosleep void in powermanager can't do his job
"public void goToSleep (long time)
Added in API level 1
Forces the device to go to sleep.
Overrides all the wake locks that are held. This is what happens when the power key is pressed to turn off the screen.
Requires the DEVICE_POWER permission.
The time when the request to go to sleep was issued, in the uptimeMillis() time base. This timestamp is used to correctly order the go to sleep request with other power management functions. It should be set to the timestamp of the input event that caused the request to go to sleep.

HTC Evo was working fine, started noticing screen flickering but phone continued to work fine. Updated to froyo 2.2 and did sprint updates, phone still worked fine, then next day in the middle of playing with phone screen flickered and went black. Tried removing battery and rebooting several times but no luck. Left battery out overnight and tried again in the morning white htc screen appeared and then flickered out to black. did a hard reset, with the screen still black and still nothing. I've gone back to my phone after it has set for hours untouched and press the power button I can see the lock screen but it too goes away after a second or two. Phone is functioning lights at the bottom of the phone are lit and respond when I press them just no visible image. I don't have the insurance so I'll have to pay for all the fixes myself and I've had it since August so there is no returning it to the store. I've searched the web and I haven't seen a solution to what the problem could be is it the LCD screen or the motherboard. I'm ordering another screen but I'd hate to find out it is something else.

Several times now my Desire's screen has just stayed black when pressing the power key to unlock it. It's like it's in a deep sleep with no way to wake it. If you call it the screen will not light up but the phone will either ring with no way of answering it or just flash the missed call light. The call can still be silenced or rejected with the buttons.
So my question is this a hardware or software issue? I'm inclined to think software because pulling the battery then rebooting solves it, until it happens again, sometimes the same day others a few days later. I always switch the phone off at night to give it a fresh start each day. I do not use any task killers or obscure apps. Phone has minimal virgin mobile UK branding on it, and running firmware 1.15.405.4 with no option to update to the newly released version.

The other day I was sending a text message on my phone and after I exited out of Handcent, my home screen was completely black. I thought this might be a fluke so I powered it off and back on and it still came up black. The lock screen will show, but when I unlock the screen, it was showing nothing but black. I was using Lock 2.0 for lock screen and helix for my home. Finally, we were able to get it back working, but I can't for the life of me tell you what we did to get it working again. Has this happened to anyone else? Anyone know what could have caused it and how to prevent it in the future?

I have a problem with the new HTC Desire HD.
When I make a call the screen goes blank, but I cannot get it back again, even if I press the button on the top of the phone. None of the other touch button function either meaning the only way to finish a call is to pull the battery out!

I've been banging my head against a wall this afternoon trying to get a WebView to work. Below is the code in the main class:
public class fkyougoogle extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
WebView webview;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
// WORKS
//webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
// DOESN'T WORK
//webview.loadUrl("http://www.theregister.co.uk");
//webview.loadData("<html><body>hello</body></html>", "text/html", "utf-8");
//webview.loadDataWithBaseURL("fake://", "<html><body>hello</body></html>", "text/html", "utf-8", "http://www.theregister.co.uk/");}}
This is Google's "Hello, Webview" example. If I use a WebView and try to access www.google.com then it works fine. If I try to access any other site then it fails including loadData and it just displays a black screen in the emulator. In the end I would like to read from a local file.
is included under the manifest tag and the XML schema is the same as the Hello Webview example.
Am I missing something obvious here?

Are any of you having trouble with this? The sensor doesn't seem to be working the way it should. I have a problem accessing the keyboard during calls to automated services and sometimes the screen won't stay lit long enough for me to end my calls.
Aside from that, my Droid keeps freezing up today. I haven't had any trouble with that before. I've got a week to go before I pass my 30 day trial. I'm not sure what to do. This phone has to be mailed in as I got it online. If there's a way to fix these problems, I'd rather not send it in and wait 3 weeks to receive a new one.

When I try to run the app Neocore my moment screen gets all black and white and the only thing that shows up are squares, I can't even see a picture of any kind. I don't know what else to do and also when I run the game raging thunder I get maybe 5 fps to the game. Can someone explain to me what is going on? Is it possible that my hardware on the phone is defective or maybe the update I got from samsung for the 2.1 is not gonna work with it?

My HTC One X Plus fell down recently, and has got a ' triangle flag' like mark on the top left part of the screen. (But not on the Gorilla Screen). But each day, when I see it, the black mark getting disappeared , as forming lines in the triangle flag (the original screen getting viewed through the lines).
When I try the phone screenshot option, the complete screen is captured with no black mark on it.
When I contacted the service center, they asked me to replace the screen. That is very costly
Is it really needed to replace the screen or will it get disappeared eventually?
