8210 Fadding screen

**Stigma** · 05-02-2003, 07:38 PM

My 8210's screen fades in and out. sometimes it's so bad, I have to press the screen with my thumb in order to see the screen. Is there any way to fix this without replacing the screen.

Thanx

u have to replace the lcd

That's the only way? Thanks

But I thought it was just some bad contact in the phone, and could be adjusted.

you only have to replace the elastomer. the thing that connects the lcd to the pcb. Nokia will actually do it for free as they had a recall for this problem

Cool, I'll send it back to Nokia then. Thanks

You can also do it yourself, I think it's faster that way, you'll have to purchase elastomer though... it's not very expensive, I think I buy mine for 3.95 £
