Help! Screen lcd not working

[alvia]

LCD on my Storm is not lighting up. When I look at it from the right angle I can see that it's working but it's not lighting up. When i put pressure on the back of the phone sometimes the screen will light up. I took the phone apart and disconnected and reconnected the screen and it's still not. What could it be?

Thanks!

It sounds like one of the components has died. Any chances it's still under warranty? If so, take it in for a replacement. If not, you can try getting a replacement LCD screen (the LCD component - you likely don't need the exterior part), or you can buy a new phone. If you are with a carrier like Verizon, Telus or Bell, you can often buy refurbished phones from them at a discount when dealing with lost or damaged phones.

Refurbished phones at Verizon are 50 bucks. I know because I've been known to throw my phone a time or two
