Is my S10 completely fried?

[Eldast]

Hi folks, back in 2021 I bought a refurbished S10 via Amazon.fr which I mainly used as an improved webcam and taking some shots. It was mostly used on a tripod with a clean hdmi capture card adapter. So: I once I turned on the camera, my laptop captured the signal as video input for virtual meetings, obs, etc.

A few weeks ago the camera started "glitch", showing some extremely weird behavior upon starting (flashing elements on the screen, freeze, no picture through the viewfinder). I then went through the process of updating all the corresponding firmware which helped a bit.

Yet, now when I turn on the camera the screen turn slightly brighter (still black) and does not interact with me at all. The screen keeps on with that subtle dim light, even if I turn off the camera (I can just discard the battery to actually turn it off). 

I was able to record the booting sequence of the camera and took some screenshots. Unfortunately, I can only upload one image. (If there's a best practice how to share those issues here, happy to follow that suggestion)

If anyone encountered this problem, appreciate your experiences. At this point I just wonder if there's a chance to salvage the camera of it it's something like the mainboard/chip that is completely broken.

Thanks

Doesn't look good - maybe you could contact the FujiFilm support group in France and ask them - they might also be able to estimate a repair cost.
