when i hook to sdk and run check it says phone is fine and when i check for apps there is none. when i do a bootloader mode nothing comes up no writing could this be a lcd problem

Wow, sorry to hear about that. I have to tell you that I don't know if much can be done, it sounds bricked to me. Let me get you to where you might find some help.

It sounds like a hardware problem, unless you're running something like juice defender, have the brightness turned down the bare minimum, or installed a program. Your best bet might be to make a nandroid backup from recovery (if possible) and then SBF back to stock to see if the problem persists. If it does it's hardware and you need to replace the phone.

so it couldnt just be a week battery??

Sounds more like a dead LCD/LCD backlight to me.

[furbearingmammal]

A weak battery wouldn't hold a charge.

thanx dave thats my conclusion also because it was working fine then when i slid the key pad forward it glinched and stopped working . ile replace that next.

anyone have A LCD FOR SALE FOR A a855

We don't have or allow buy/sell/trade threads here. There are some over on android.net or you can look around. Keep in mind replacing it will void your warranty. How long have you had the phone? If it's less than a year Verizon should replace it unless you got it second-hand. In that case go to Motorola and punch in the ESN. If you can't see that even with a flashlight trained on the screen CALL Moto and see if they can help you track down if it's covered under warranty or not.

Oh, and the part you're looking for would be the "digitizer".
