    could be a screen problem. If you are totally clueless, then take it to a repair centre. If you want to take matters into your own hands, then you can disassemble it and see which version LCD it uses and purchase one online.

    Yup it is an LCD problem. My friends 9000 had the same fate. Any physical damage occur to the phone lately?

    Yep, my 9700 died the same whitish death.

    As posted by others, my research on this showed that replacing the screen might solve the issue, it doesn't seem to be a software issue.

    I didn't bother doing that, since I was afraid the issue would come back. Through my IT dept I was allowed to upgrade to another phone, even though I was only 14 months into a 2 year contract. You might want to try that with your carrier if you're still under contract.
