Did you ensure that you got the correct firmware for the model in your location? With Samsung the firmware can be dependent on where the phone was first bought i.e. which country/area it was designed for, even if the "model" is sold worldwide
With the phone turned on, try shining a flashlight at an angle close to the screen and check for any images. They will be very faint if they are there so trying in a darkened room may help to see them.
If they are there then there's a backlight problem. Either the software is not turning the backlight on or it is a hardware problem.
Hi,
Why did you have to reflash the firmware?
