Hi,
I replaced the my ELF's LCD, but I'm not getting any picture of it. I also put my broken one back, but nothing. Got some sound of it and blinking blue, orange and green LED's.
Did it brick up or something, or did I mess up something?
Didn't put in ribbon far enough. 2 white stripes go all the way in... fixed...

I just replaced the screen on my T-Mobile Wing.......but after turning on the phone the screen wont turn on...i thought maybe i didnt plug it in right so i did it about 3 times and no luck....I just put my old screen back on and it works fine...could it be defective? or something i gotta do to the new screen before plugging it in?
OK so I got it to work.......but the screen has a slight yellow tint to it.....is that how its supposed to look? (I got the screen from ebay)
Screen went white & buttons didn't work.. took to get phone fixed... and...now buttons work but the screen has a weird yellow tint
what is the problem, and how to fix
bump. anyone?
Can you say a bit more about it. How strong is this yellow tint. Can you upload a picture.
It's difficult to know if this is caused by a new screen that has a faint yellow tinge or whether it's a definite fault.

My phone started getting the white screen issue, the buttons stopped working.
When I'd turn the display on, it would be all white, id have to press it a few times then it would be ok, the buttons seized to function.
I took it to get fixed, the buttons now fully work, but the screen has a weird yellow tint all over. It didn't have it before. I was mad at the repair shop, the guy told me that its the LCD screen connector cable or whatever... but I don't believe him, as he doesn't seem to know wtf he is saying..
please help
Mine started doing this recently. Screen fades to white and nothing works but I can still hear if I'm on the phone. For me, turning it off and back on resolves the issue (I can see the display again). I suppose some aren't so lucky..
More than likely the LCD connector cable has a problem. Why he didn't fix it, I have no idea. If you feel up to taking it apart, you may be able to push the connector in further, OR you could buy a new screen. Then again...
Hi there
I have rebuilt many hermes with the same problems. I researched the issues on here and elsewhere - Its nearly always related to the entire Dpad/cable/connections . I have repaired nearly all of these quite simply by dismantling them and adjusting/cleaning and reassembling them - things move and get out of contact etc and this is what happens with these - get a torx driver and have a go - after a few tries you will usually solve the problem
Happy to assist anybody who would like a hand
Kind regards

So, I guess I screwed with something on my phone, but my display now shows "color bleeding" mostly when i open the phone up in horizontal mode. Would this be a problem with the flex cable? if so, just replacing that cable should fix the problem right?
I am able to disassemble the whole phone no problem.
I am experiencing the exact same issue, its bloody annoying.
I'm fairly certain it is the ribbon, but I wouldn't know where to get a new one, so havn't tried swapping it yet.
Did try disassembling and cleaning it out a bit though, no luck

Could you post a picture of what you're talking about?
Sadly enough, I do not have a camera other than the one on my dz... a screenshot wouldn't do anything since it just looks fine.. but it's something with the physical hardware part. I'll see if I can borrow a friend's camera when it happens again, but essentially the red and blue colors look like it's splotched in different parts and sometimes it even "pulsates"
it doesn't do it in vertical mode, but in horizontal mode.. it appears instantly.
Thanks to someone in another post that led me to the amazon link for the ribbon cable.. the phone now has no color bleed. Woohoo!

It works great and looks exactly like the original.
I'm experiencing a slight color disfiguration. I traded my girlfriend my phone for a few days and when i got it back, the bottom half has a yellowish tint. Is the flex ribbon the reason why it's like this?
is it the same tint whether or not you're in vertical or horizontal (keyboard open) mode?
if so it might be your flex cable or it might be the actual screen itself.
Yeah, the yellow (and now with blue) tint is in both modes. lower half of both sides (vertical and horizontal)
wait, does the tint change on the screen? as in does the tint stay in the bottom half of the vertical screen and stays in the right half in horizontal? or does it shift so that it goes to the bottom half in horizontal? if it stays in the same physical space in both modes, then it might be the screen itself, but if it shifts.. it's most probably the flex cable.
yeah, it shifts. but now the blue and yellow lines is throughout the screen. initially, i thought it was a ROM thing, so i changed it to see it in a different rom.
sounds like a flex cable problem. I can't guarantee it since it's one of those "replace it and see if it works" deal.
Had to buy a screen replacement for my Nexus 4.
After the replacement i can see one distinct vertical line to the left. It's purple on white background.
I can also see it in recovery mode, but when i take a screenshot it doesn't show on the picture.
Is this a malfunction of the new screen, or did i mess anything up?
The screen i ordered missed the frame so i had to buy a front frame seperately and glue the screen to this.
I used this guide:

everything went well, except one thing; when i connected the flex cable to the frame (check @ 23:19) i removed the little blue transparent plastic sticker, i thought it was a protective sticker cause my screen was new.. (the guide also said i had to remove a sticker if it was new)
but i found out right after it was actually supposed to be there.. i sticked it back on, though i didnt take care to align it 100%,.
This was the only thing i did sloppy..
could this cause the vertical line? think i'm going to open it up again and try set it straight if the line annoys me too much, but does anyone know what the purpose of this little blue sticker is? it looks like plastic so i thought it weird that this should lie between a cable and the frame?
anyone know?
Not sure about the blue sticker but it's either a defective screen, or more likely a badly seated flex cable.
I haven't had to change a screen since my old Nokia n95. That had something similar. Though mine was a line of purple and the backlight would only come on if I squeezed the phone.
Taking the screen back off, removing and reseating the ribbon cable fixed this issue.
I'd say it's likely to be the cable because the colours are sent as rgb values.
In your case if your only getting red and blue to x row on the screen then that will appear as purple.
I'd be less likely to think that it's a screen problem because either the whole row would be black, or there would be specific pixels that would be missing an rgb and not the entire row

hi everyone, after some white stripes show up from nothin while i was using the gps and the weather was a bit hot and that maybe damaged my screen. So i changed the wole screen. Some white stripes shows up on screen when i put the back cover on. For example if i turn of and put the back cover and turn the phone the stripes will appear. But if i remove the back cover and turn on the phone it wont show up. And sometimes when i turn on the phone with the back cover the screen gets grey aand i cant see so i have to turn off and turn on again.
I think maybe the flex cable might be broken.
I tried dissembly the phone twice but the problem still here. I tried going back to stock rom(JB, KK and LOLLIPOP) but nothing help
if any1 know what is problem plz tell me adn sorry bad english
Edit:
The problem Was the flex cable that was broken
