Hi,

I turned on my phone this morning and it started in boot mode. I had a look in the 'fastboot' section of the boot menu and stupidly clicked on - I think - an option called 'bootloader', although I may be wrong on this. . .

Anyway, then the screen went black.

I've tried restarting phone several times by taking out the battery, but the screen stays black. The charging light also doesn't come on when I charge the phone, and there's no backlight.

The phone still rings when I call it, and vibrates when I restart the phone, so I presume that it's the screen that the problem?

If anyway has any clues to help me out, that would be much appreciated!
 
As richgm says, it is worth a try... my wife's Kindle (the original version, with a keyboard) went south a couple of weeks after the end of the warranty... when I spoke to Amazon, they sorted a replacement straight away (only cost the postage) :)

If they say no, you can always find out how much it would cost to repair with HTC and go with the cheaper of the 2 quotes :D
