Blank screen thrown in backend

Saving a K2 item works like a charm.
I have enabled maximum error reporting but the resulting blank page is completely void of any content... visible or not. And no source code whatsoever.
Anyone with any ideas on the matter?

Have you tried development error reporting?
Are there any fatal error recorded on your error_log?

I have tried everything when it comes to error reporting. Nothing is logged whatsoever.
The strangest thing: Now, the same thing happens with ALL modules (ie, pressing any button like Save, Cancel etc throws blank screen). Also the same thing started happening with the Global Confuguration as well. I can't seem to be able to save any changes there either.
I replaced the database with a previous day backup dump, and for a while Global configuration and the rest of the modules worked OK. The K2 User module (which was the one where I first noticed the issue) was still throwing blanks. After a while, the rest of the modules AND GC started throwing blanks again.
The only thing that I can think of is Suhosin but I disabled it from the account completely. It is still logging every now and then but it won't drop or block anything.
This is really bizarre and it's driving me nuts!

They will not cause error or alter your site's functionality.
Is there a Fatal Error recorded?
Also since this is a global issue it is probably unrelated to K2.
Is your site experiencing heavy traffic? It could be mySql crashing and causing tables to lock. Have you tried repairing your DB tables?

Yes, they are warnings and they have nothing to do with the issue.
There are no Fatal Errors recorded whatsoever.
I understand that the issue might be unrelated to K2 but what puzzles me is that:
I do a fresh install from a backup. Everything works, Global Configuration is accepting changes etc.
I am making changes to other modules, not problem.
I am trying to make changes to K2 User module. Problem arises. And after that, Global Configuration and other modules are affected too. Like something is triggered by the K2 User module and gets corrupted for the rest of the installation.
I have tried to repair the database via Joomla's function and also tried Repair and Optimize tables by Admin Tools. No cigar! :(

If you are using 3.3 then you should use the DEV version.

I have tried reinstalling K2 as well as the whole Joomla but no luck. Is the DEV version suitable for a live site?

Everything seems to be working Ok, except that at the backend, when I try to edit a K2 item or category, the title field is empty and impossible to edit. The title itself is there, it shows both on frontend and backend list view but when trying to edit item/category, it's disabled and looks empty.

The most probable explanation is that a plugin that came bundled with the template is causing this.

Also, saving any changes to the K2 parameters is still throwing a blank screen. All other configurations (Global or other components) save OK.
I am checking with the template developer and getting back to you on this.
Needless to say that K2 seems more buggy than ever. I have been using it for ages, almost since day one and I was also quite happy that it is a Greek origin product but its recent issues it makes me think twice about continuing to use it. Just saying...

Keep in mind that template providers use frameworks which are compatible with only certain versions of K2.

Also, like I said, rolling back to 2.6.8 fixed the issue.

If some of them are outdated, then issues will arise.
This goes for the front end and the backend as well.
