Hi everyone.

This evening I was going out for a walk, took my trusted N900 out of my pocket, but it would not let me type my unlock code, just one key, and erratically. Wow. This is new.

I reflashed it (Fiasco rootfs only, should I go further ?) ; This was the first time ever. I managed to connect it to my wireless because the screen registers a tap or two now and then (and could enter the WPA key because the keyboard works flawlessly) but then again ssh-server is no longer installed so I can not ssh into it anymore. Apparently I can't receive phone calls either. Yikes.

I have this phone ever since it was out in the medina around here parts, and have been living a true love story. If it's really dead I'm going to buy as many machines as I can find, because this is my idea of a phone.

Is this "dead screen" issue known ? I saw a lot of related messages on this board but the info is really scattered.

What can I do to exactly diagnose what is going on ? Please help. The sky is blackening.
