Hi guys I just have a question....

I just revived my MPX200 a few hours ago thanks to this post:

CODE

http://www.mobilegadgetnews.com/index.php?showtopic=6080&st=60&gopid=57258&#entry57258

Now my other concern is the screen looks like ink has been spilled in the background...If i move up and down through the menu the blackness moves places...Now i was just wondering if its WM2003 that could be corrupt or the drawing engine or something like that? (i flashed from WM2002 a few months/weeks before the fuse blew). The screen is also a little fuzzy or blurry....

I was wondering if there is any chance a Hard Reset will fix it? I went to *#**372# (FQC Menu) and i select the Indication.... option and the colors look fine by themselves....I haven't installed any new apps that i remember.

Wot does it actually do when its hard reset?

Do you suggest:

1> Hard Reset.
2> I reflash WM2003 on it or go back to WM2002. (i wont request the flashes )
3> Take the phone apart and check the connections to the LCD screen or something.

Anything else I can try?

Thanks In advance....

Those three things you listed is where I would start. I would even follow that order of things.

I wanted to clarify, when you say the blackness moves places you mean it isn't always on the same spot of the screen, correct? When you scroll around the screen, it moves around the screen? I agree, the 3 things you have listed is what I'd do, an the order I'd do them. If none of those work, I don't know what would.

@GrYph0n Ok thanks will do.


@smeg36 Yeah it moves around when i scroll through then menu...Its not like a stain, rather like ink floating around

OK gonna hard reset now now...

Thanks

EDIT:

Just did a master reset and it did nothing.

I tried to take the screen apart but its really resistant...I took the 4 screws out but still nothing...

Ill try flash it, if it dont work then i'll try the screen again...Any hints or directions to remove the screen?

Thanks

OK just flashed it again with WM2003 and the black *&^% is still floating around as i move through the menu's...

So now my last resort is to get this screen open...Can someone please explain exactly how to dismantle the screen?

I removed the 4 screws underneath the rubber plugs and pushed the flat screwdriver in there to try jack it open but it seems stuck! Are there any internal clips or which direction do I start from?

Kind Regards

This is a very odd case. The fact that is moves around the screen when you scroll up and down suggests it's a software problem, not hardware. But if it remains after a ROM flash it is almost definitely a hardware problem. There are directions here on how to disassemble the MPx200. The directions for the screen portion are about half way down the first post. Good luck.

I got good and bad news...Last night i flashed my MPx200 about 3 times with 3 different roms

mpxland2003.img
SUPER_MOTO_2_MPX200_2003.img (it had this orginally)
MOTOROLA SMARTPHONE 2002.img

For both the the WM2003 the screen had the black stuff on the screen. When i flashed to the WM2002 it was fine. There was no black anywhere on the screen when scrolling through the menu.Do you thinks there is a higher resolution for the display on WM2003 that my phone can no longer handle? Maybe is got something to do with the way graphics are rendered, i'm taking wild guesses.I remember when I first upgraded to WM2003 there was a huge performance boost from the standered WM2002.

I will stick to WM2002 but was wondering if anyone has seen any modded or super WM2002? I just need names....

Thanks for the continuous help!

Now I'm really confused. There should be no reason WM2003 would be any different than 2002 in this case. I'd love to see some pictures of it as I've never heard of anything like this. I wonder if you flashed back to WM2003 after having 2002 without the issue if it would reappear.

Im not sure why it does it....Will flash back to 2003 and take photos with my other phone and post them....Strange :$
