[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] bryce_wsj:
I tried all of that, however, i can't see the screen. So I'm not sure where i stand when i enter those modes. When the phone reboots normally, i have to enter my code manually the first time, which i can do, just by memory of the button placement on the screen, but as i said, can't see anything. I'm willing to try anything. At this point i'm just letting the phone sit idle and let the battery die, hopefully that will do something.

Damn, I got the exact same behavior on my S8+ today! sitting in the couch watching Hockey and I got all excited after the Caps crushed Penguins :) tried to send a text to a friend but the screen won't turn on? Tried everything above but screen is black..SUCKS!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] 0ldskoolz:
I just got the same thing ..tried everything ..however the download did work ..and a blue screen came up and asked if i wanted to download so i pressed yes ...so we will see what happens
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] LynnH:
A friend and I both had this happen within a week of buying the phone. What it turned out to be in both our cases is the screen was on the very lowest brightness setting. We did not set this. Somehow it happened spontaneously. Go to the darkest place you can find and you should be able to return your screen to a normal brightness. I have a feeling this is going to be a recurrent problem with a software fix in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] golgothagecko:
I had a similar issue. I set the power saving option and it looked like the screen turned black. Only after going to a dark room could I tell it was on. It was a new level of dark I never seen even if you consider setting the brightness to its lowest setting.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] waardeloos:
same here,

during typing screen freesh and black out.

as death as a door knop. nothing worked none of the mentioned options by Samsung relieved me from a black and dead screen.

its now being collected for repair,

lets wait and see
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] geminga:
Same here also.

After 7 days of using it I picked it up to check for notifications just to see the black screen.

Never let it fall or anything.

Unfortunately I will not get a replacement from my dealer but a repair. Let's see if we get a BSOD-gate ****storm with this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mefxes:
Another BSOD here.

Less than 7 days of normal use, screen seems to be deade. I have haptic and sound feedback. Even the alarms are ringing all day long and I can't turn them off.

Now I'm waiting for the vendor to collect it since I requested a return due to defect.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Chuck_Daytona:
I FINALLY understand what is going on with Samsung Black Screen of Death-- how it happens and what to do.

First off the bat -- IT'S A DESIGN FLAW IN PHONE! Here is what occurs to induce the Black Screen.

1.) As you lift the phone to your ear, the top of your ear touches the screen. The screen "understands" this to be your finger drawing down the "notifications" bar.

2.) If your ear comes off of the screen, when you place the surface back to hear, the screen "understands" this to be a 2nd time pulling down on the screen.

3.) At this time, your screen brightness "slider bar" is sitting smack dab in the middle of the screen. This 'slider bar' controls the brightness, from very bright to the screen turned off. Slide to the left, screen gets dim. Slide to the right, screen gets brighter.

4.) If your ear next touches the screen, it is almost always on the left side of the screen - no matter whether you are left or right-handed. The Samsung S8 + interprets this 3rd contact to the screen as you "instructing" the phone to turn the screen intensity to "off".

5.) You now have the "Black Screen of Death".

You can simulate this with just using your finger on the screen. Pull down the notifications bar ONCE. Then do it a SECOND TIME. You will now see the screen intensity "slider bar" before your eyes. It is the one with the half sun / half moon icon on the left side of the bar. If you move the little blue bar with your finger, going right to left, you will see the screen go dark.

These are the exact same movements your ear traces on the screen as you use your phone to answer a call or to talk on the phone. 3 accidental touches and the screen is BLACK and you don't understand how it happened.

This is a design flaw in the software. Samsung needs to change how the sllder bar controls screen intensity.

If you go into a very dark place, there will still remain a very faint glow from the screen. All you have to do is 2 finger swipes down, then with your finger push the slide bar back to the right- and VOILA -- you can see the screen again.

Hope this helps everyone until Samsung fixes the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] gp-se:
Doesn't the S8 have a proximity sensor like the iPhone to determine that the phone is being held up against someones ear?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] arl16:
I FOUND A RECOVERY FROM THIS!!

I just got the Black Screen of Death for the first time after owning the phone for 2 weeks - pretty alarming when the phone is unresponsive, you can't reboot with the power button, and you can't pull the battery. (Coming from an S5, this is my first phone with a non-removable battery). Even though I knew my phone was fully charged, I tried plugging it in, and didn't even get the red LED. Not good.

After a little Googling, the solution I found that worked for me was: Press and hold Down Volume + Power at the same time for 7 seconds.

This brings you to a screen with some options, the first being to reboot like normal.

Volume toggles up and down between the options, but be sure not to choose option 2, which is a factory reset!

The Bixby button selects, so I just clicked on option 1, and I was back in business.

This apparently does a "simulated battery disconnect". Assuming it was some sort of firmware crash, this should bring you back to life. It did for me. There are other suggestions on the page if it doesn't work, but I was back to life after step 1. Hope it helps...

[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] sdugoten:
My X performance is now running Nougat. I am going to downgrade it back to 6.0.1. And therefore I downloaded the FlashTool. I can install the Flashmode Drivers and Fastboot Drivers. But I can't find the Xperia X Performance drivers in flashtool-0.9.23.1-windows. Do I need to manually download the drivers from https://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-x-performance-driver/ and right click on .inf to install the drivers in Windows?

Secondly, since I never unlock my bootloader, I am going to backup using the backupTA_v2 via the Dirtycow. However, I wonder if I restore the TA partition after I root my phone, would the root also go away? Basically, I want to have my Xperia X performance in root state while having the original TA partition in place so that I can run the PS4 remote play app. As far as I understand, all the DRM recovery patch out there don't fix the PS4 remote play app.

Thanks.

Let me know how you go, and how you got the MM ROM? I'm interested but I can't seem to find any MM ROM for my model and country variant.

Here is the rom.

If you want to install fastboot driver on windows 7 or later, you must reboot with driver signature enforcement disabled. Here is the video shows you how to install driver.

Restore TA partition will not lose your root access.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] chris_j26:
Does this mean I can flash any country variant rom to my phone ?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] f870103:
Yes. Just download the FTF that match your phone model and flash it into your phone using Flashtool.

So for backing up the ta does it matter that I will flash UK variant marshmallow on my Australian firmware phone? Sorry I know it sounds like a noob question.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] f870103:
We backup TA partition because we want to keep SONY's special functions AFTER unlocking bootloader.

If you just want to flash different variant firmware, you don't need to unlock the bootloader, just find the FTF file and flash it into your phone.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] chris_j26:
Ah but I'd like to downgrade to marshmallow(of available UK variant) and then unlock bootloader, root and then XPosed. So is TA even relevant for me?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] f870103:
Yes. Since you want to unlock bootloader, backing up TA partition is relevant to you. But you can only backup TA partition on Marshmallow (because SONY fix the dirtycow on Nougat). So you should downgrade first, then backup TA partition, then unlock bootloader.

Question: Hi. P8 Lite gets to the B600, what improvements do we get? Some kind of EMUI 4.1 or something? (like we get 4.0.3 special for us)

As I seen, we won't receive Android Nougat, but at least support for Vulkan API from Mali we can receive? (With a new driver maybe) ...

Answer: We mention that the P8 Lite will launch a revision package to correct some smartphone options. It will not change the EMUI or Kernel version.

We currently have no information on the release date.

Pretty sad about these news, I will chose my phone more precisely next time...

Hi guys,

I flashed the ROM throught TXRP 310-2. First I thought something went wrong because it only seemed to flash the radio, but finally everything was ok. I a m now on B598 (DS variant).

But I can't root anymore. If I flash the .zip file from superSU website, I just got stuck in a bootloop and the only way to stop this is to : - flash the upadte.zip again or apply the UnSU zip...

Any ideas ?
[P8lite General] amageek:
Which SuperSu zip did you flash?

Did you use two zip method? Or just flashed the stable version?

First flash the beta SuperSu then the stable one..

If this still fails, then try flashing Magisk.

I flashed the 2.79 .zip @ supersu.com. Which beta do I have to flash ?

If after rebooting you're having problems with root, then do the following:

Flash the first zip file

Open the app once, and then uninstall it.

Flash the second zip..

You're good to go after that..
