Hello, my phone is having a very weird issue, I will be ordering a replacement, but I was wondering if anyone knew what was up with the phone before I do so.
Basically the problem is that the phone's screen blacks out as if the power was cut off (the pixels don't refresh back to black normally). The phone works while the screen is black, and may even come back from time to time, however, if I hold the scroll button down, and press end + home twice the screen re-appears until I let go of the scroll button, and the screen once again goes black. If I am typing a number while the screen is blacking out, it will keep beeping until I press the end key (assuming I have it to beep when you press keys). When I power into boot manager (Power + camera button), it shows everything, and it does not black out...
Sometimes it shows the G1 logo, at other times it does not. I've tried factory resetting as well, with no success.
Whenever the phone does come back from the black screen I get a message with 'Sorry <AppName> is not responding. Force close or Wait'. No matter what , the android core, or any other app (even Setup Wizard).
On the day that this started happening I installed a wifi program (I can't quite remember the name, something like WeWifi - it searches for community wifi spots), and the day before I installed 2 sound boards.
So, any idea what could be going on? I could post a video later to demonstrate what I mean by holding the scroll button / blacking out.
