1) How do you reboot with Odin? I know how to reboot using adb, but Odin just pushes firmware to the phone, it doesn't normally reboot it without pushing firmware.

2) Either a connector came loose, the screen is bad or something went bad on the motherboard. Someone (I don't suggest that you try it yourself*) will have to open the phone up and determine which one it is.

*For one thing, you'll need a spare, known-good screen to replace yours with to determine if it's a bad screen. For another, opening a cellphone if you have no experience usually results in tearing wires and breaking parts.

I'm also having the same problems here. Please help? Just this morning my phone started acting up the same way. Earlier this morning my phone's screen colors changed. It was like when you reduce the number of colors on a pc monitor to 256-colors or something like that. I did not paid it any mind since it went back to normal in about ten seconds or so. But then after about an hour while I was in the middle of starting an android game ("mini puzzle" from com2us) the screen went all white and I couldn't do anything else on it. I tried power cycling it but it went back to the same white screen while booting up. I tried taking out the battery and memory card and it went the same. Then I tried turning it on while charging it. It booted back to the normal logo screen then to the home screen as if nothing happened. In a stupid move I tried staring the same android game and it went back to the same white screen. I immediately turn it off, take out the battery and put it back and charge it then turn it back on. It didn't work but after 3-4 times it worked. This time I uninstalled the android game and even tried playing some music. Well it was working fine. THEN... this afternoon when I tried to use my phone it went back to the same blank screen and my supposed fix is not working anymore... I don't know what to do. please help.

1.) My phone is Galaxy Y GT-S3560 model, openline and NOT rooted. Technically it was almost the same as when I bought it from the shop about 2 years ago. No customisation done except appearance-wise.

2.) WHen this problem happened today I only had a task cleaner, torrent downloader for my comics and the 2 android game installed which was perfectly working before

3.) I'm not sure if it was a virus or anyhting since I only download the aps from trusted sources and the torrents are clean since I scanned them on my pc.

4.) I tried backing it up with KIES and the pc detects my phone so i was able to backup some imoportant files (phone numbers, memos etc)

5.) I search the net for a fix and I tried to flash it with ODIN 4.42 but it was not detected which made me unable to continue. (It would have been the first time I tried to do something technically with my phone)

6.)Neither Dowload mode (vol down+home+power) or Recovery mode (vol up +home+power)| is not working since it only shows that dreaded white screen.

7.) Then I checked with my pc and sure enough there was no usb drivers installed eventhough with KIES it was detected and was backed up. Not sure why it is so.

8.) I was told by a workmate that it could be the LCD display but no accident happened on the device hardware like getting wet, or getting tremendous pressure or anything. I still suspect it was a software problem. Hopefully I'm right with my suspicion since a hardware repair cost a lt which I can't spare right now.

I'm not very computer/tech savvy but please help me in what to do step by step. I tried to follow some other guides online in what to do but I got lost. I'm afraid to continue as I might do more damage than repair it. PLEASE HELP.... and thank you for reading this far (I tried to make it as detailed as I could). Thanks in advance.
