Backlight LED components are inside the display
module. Backlight failure can also be in the
connector or in the backlight power source in the
main engine of the phone.
This means that in case the display is working
(image OK), the backlight is faulty.
Pixel defects can be checked by controlling the
display with Phoenix. Use both colours, black and
white, on a full screen.
The display may have some random pixel defects
that are acceptable for this type of display. The
criteria when pixel defects are regarded as a display
failure, resulting in a replacement of the display, are
presented the following table.
