9900: Backlight-timeout leeds to black screen

this problem occured suddenly:
In case the backlight-timeout elapses the screen gets dark and does not awake any more! No matter which keys are striked, the trackpad and the keyboard will get lighted, but the screen does not.

Fmpov it can't be the display itself as it works well after having pulled the battery and restarted the gear. Until the next timeout elapses and the BB gets dark again. Even shut-off does not work

Wipe and new installation did not help either: V.7.1.0.746

Can anyone help?

If you've already reloaded the OS, that only leaves a hardware problem. I'd contact your provider and see about a warranty replacement...if the device is less than a year old.

Re: 9900: Backlight-timeout leeds to black screen

Thanks John,

 

My 9900 has already been replaced twice (due to an other problem each). Bad luck.

 

Thank's nevertheless!
