Screen

The Screen Appears Blank

1. If this is the first time you are turning on your device, you need to take out and reinsert
the battery to turn on the screen (see “Replacing the Battery” on page 378). Alternately,
connect your device to a wall outlet using the USB AC charger (see “Charging the
Battery” on page 26).
2. If you’re on a call, when the time period specified in Backlight Settings expires, the
screen dims. (Pressany key except End to turn on the screen. Pressing End
hangs up the call.)
3. Look closely at the screen, and if you can see a dim image, try adjusting the
screen brightness (see “Adjusting the Brightness” on page346).
4. If that doesn’t work, perform a soft reset (see “Performing a Soft Reset” on page375).
5. If that doesn’t work, connect your smartphone to the USB charger (see “Charging the
Battery” on page 26) and perform a soft reset again.
6. If you’re using a third-party application, make sure that the application supports
320 x 320 screen resolution.
7. If that doesn’t work, perform a hard reset (see “Performing a Hard Reset” on page377).
