Screen not functioning

Hi everyone

I bought an Xperia T very recently; I haven't even got a SIM card yet. However I have been using it to get used to the way the phone works.

This morning, instead of using the MicroUSB cord with MHL that I was given with the phone, I accidentally charged my phone with a regular MicroUSB cord. I had it charging for about 10 minutes, then I tried to use the phone, and the screen wouldn't turn on. There is a slight flash on the screen as if it's trying to turn on, but stays black. The camera, flash, and vibrate still works, and I've taken the MicroSD card out and proven that the phone still takes photos. So it seems the phone itself is still working, but the screen and touch doesn't.

The Xperia T does have MicroUSB support (I read it on this website) so I'm very confused and distressed as to why the phone isn't working. Is it still under warranty? And how can I fix it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

that doesn't make sense at all, how were you charging your phone? were you updating your phone with SUS or PCC?
