So my sister's blackberry just white screen'd out and now as a curious brother, I wanted to tinker with it and fix it. I have invested numerous hours scouring threads to see what works and what doesn't.
Some People Claim:
The 4 solder points by the micro usb port creates a short
The cable connecting the camera and micro SD reader is corroded.
Some People's Fixes
LCD screen is busted, just replace it
Place electrical tape on solder points
Press the screen tightly on the top two corners of the screen.
What I did:
So I first check to see if the screen was an issue. I wiped the device using JL_Cmder and then reloaded the latest os6 onto it. I could hear that intro music as if the device was being used for the first time, but the screen was still white. At this point I figured I'd replace the screen. I made sure as to check the model of the screen and used the exact same model for a replacement. When I plugged in the phone to power it up to see if this would do it, the screen now comes back with a fuzzy colored background, like colored static and you can see a somewhat resemblance of a loading bar. For me it loads about 1/3 of the way. So determined to believe that this screen I bought wasn't the problem. I performed several hard resets (battery pull) and kept getting the same thing. When I pressed really hard on the screen and had the camera cable unhooked, I finally saw the blackberry logo on a black background. Here's the odd part. This time and every other time after it, as I mentioned there was a loading bar and it loaded part way, but now there is what seemed like a mirrored loading bar this time about 1cm down from the top of the screen that loads at the same time as the other one. Other than that, it stops loading and then ... hard reset.
Anyone know of any other methods to be used, or know what this colored fuzzy screen mean? Loaded and wiped this thing many times. Open to suggestions
Just to make sure the phone is working and all I found this link to display your blackberry screen onto your computer:

using JL_Cmder Java loader which you can get here:

i was able to see if my blackberry was working or not. you can see that although the brand new lcd screen partially loads and looks frozen, the phone works flawlessly because of the live stream via USB cord to the computer.

So anyone know what a possible fix could be. Phone works as seen on the computer screen, but brand new screen on phone. No go.
