Help

My K750 has had a dodgy screen for a while now, it kept going very very bright, almost white and then flicking back to normal all the time. Yesterday I looked at the phone and it's gone totally white and won't shift. The phone does still work, I've called myself and it rings, but of course I can't see anything!
I'm due a replacement and I'm getting a N93 at the end of the month but until then I a) need a phone! and b) need to get my numbers out.
Anyone got any suggestions other than going to a phone shop to fix it (too expensive for a phone at the end of it's life). Replacing screen myself? Source for new screens?
Cheers All

If u never changed the screen on your own, let it done by experts. So imo the best solution is still the se service

The last episode of this I heard on the K750 was when a colleague of mine sat on his when it was in his back pocket.
He could still receive calls but the screen was totally white.
As it turned out, a connector from the PCB to the screen had been partially pulled. Remove the front housing and it is at the bottom left hand corner of the screen.
That is a possibility.
Do a good search using
k750i wsod , there is pictures of this and how to repair it.

You know I thought I was being all clever and original by saying 'white screen of death'

Seems I was beaten to it by quite a way!!
Cheers both of you, I shall try pulling this thing apart as soon as I track down a torex screwdriver somewhere in Soho.
Cheers

This isn't similar to the WSOD problem people are having from recent SE phones which are software-related issues.

Ah fantastic thanks.
I think it justproves what I fear however, and that is that by opening it I have fixed ther grounding issue but broken the screen
Now I have nothing on screen, no light no nothing , regardless of what other parts are or aren't plugged in :'( May have to swallow my pride and nip to a phone shop. bugger.
