I took the battery out, later took in again, to solve, but nothing happened. It's still showing white screen for few days. I don't know If I pressed on screen accidentally, but I don't remember anything such.
So far, I have a white screen problem, I noticed some other had too, they took to the repairs.
The case is, I connected 8100 to computer, entered the password and backup the address book, sms etc. So, does that mean problem is only at screen, so the software works fine?
Also, is there any other way to delete every file (called hard reset, or wipe handheld, isn't it?) with using Desktop Manager only, because, as I can't see the menu because of white screen, I can't wipe handheld through settings?
I hope someone answer me, and tell me is there anyway for hard reset in such conditions. I want to use my blackberry back surely (using nokia for now, that is so bad.)
Thanks!

Try pulling the battery again. That may do the trick. If this doesn't work, you may want to wipr the device OS software and reload it. Here are instructions for doing the wipe:

Have you ever backed up your device using the Desktop Manager?
