It is time you using flash? sometimes, reflective from flash make it became white

Try hitting the display button(the small TV resembling icon in the bottom right of the camera). You may have accidentally pressed it while using your camera and caused it to turn off your display.

Thank you!

hi this is a known issue with the camera. please contact the manufacturer

The CCD imager is faulty and it has to be replaced. A well known problem with the M1. Contact SONY and see if they will replace the CCD imager unit free of charge. They did but recently they stopped the free replacement for a lot of models.

Quit movin' around so much. ;)

Scratch noise is generally caused by failure of one or more Electronics Capacitors located on the board.

But in smaller devices, it may also be due to unstable soldered connections (dry joints)
Please check out the ear set may be there's a cable which just needs to be resoldered correctly.

Which equipment are you using exactly?
