What's wrong with my screen?

I got a secondhand T-Mobile MDA and while the screen works fine - the touchscreen works, there's no cracks or anything - everything is colored wrong...
It's like if you suddenly decreased the color depth on your desktop version of windows... everything goes to a washed out version of the proper color. In addition, there's kind of... lighter stripes that flicker across the screen when it's displaying colors.
Since I can't really explain it that well, I took a video of it. It's a little flash video like you find on YouTube... I also have a raw MPEG of it here for people that don't have Flash.
That's the default Windows Mobile theme in the video... the blue is washed out, and you can see the stripes flickering on the right as I move the slide up and down. While there's little "arc" of discoloration across the top some times, the stripes are usually the major discoloration on the screen.
There seems to be little problems when displaying things with a primarily white background except for washed out colors. The little water damage stripe under the SIM is still there and white.
Is this fixable? How much is it gonna cost me?

Anybody have any ideas? Would a new LCD fix this?

Maybe it's a flex?
Can't tell much from Your video

i also have this problem... it just happens when i slide my phone up...

Problem with screen replacement

I have recently replaced a broken screen of an apache with a new one and when i turn it on the screen turns on and is white, when I look at it side on I can see the devices screen is working but it is faded, e.g the today screen is there but very faded.
I was wondering what could be the problem?

moisture shorted out the screen

screen replaced, sometimes i have ghost touch when touching screen, why? :(

i have broken my screen (touch amoled, all the screen) and i bought another one from ebay
looks original and arrived in a samsung service pack box
this new display have something strange in colors when the backlight is low, looks like...don't know how to explain but the colors are not perfect as they were with the factory screen...somehow a little bit green (always when light is low)
anyway sometimes now, like one time every week, after i while i'm using it, the screen go crazy and when i touch it, i see (developer, show touch dots) random touch around my fingers
some days ago this problem happened when i was in a call, me and my interlocutor, we heard a strange noise like bzzzzzrbrbzbrbrbzzzz when i was touching the screen, so there was the touch crazy problem and some strange noise when i was touching the screen
a reboot and everything is ok for some day....
i hope you had understood my poor english
opinions? what can i do? :crying:
ps. i have a 9506

It's probably a fake screen. That would explain your color problem and touch problem.

the screen resolution is correct and with high backlight the colors are perfect, looks like original on the front and on the back
how to check if it's fake?

S7 edge weird blurry screen

Hi everyone one
I'm not sure this is the right section for my topic, if not I'm sorry and pls direct me.
So I got this phone from my brother whith a weid screen he has no idea how he got this problem, it had a charging issue that he already repaired after that this problem appeared
The phone screen looks a bit weird no scratches or visible damag. but the screen is blurry the contrast is a so hight that the colors are a bit off and are not seamless, and there is this stains as if the screen is brocken (see atached pictures), so far if I hide the upper bar the rest of the screen will looks normal as if there's no problem with it
Any Idea on how to fix this problem is the screen damaged ?
Thanks in advance

No fixing that I doubt, unless the cable for the screen is loose, in which case I still would not try to fix it yourself unless you're very patient and have steady hands.

To fix, you need screen replacement.
According to samsung technician at service center, the purple strain damage are caused by having the phone being press on or under high pressure such as putting the phone inside tight jean pocket or being sit on etc.

Now the phone work well without that app

Replaced lcd but notification led doesn't work

Hi there i helped my friend with changing his xa lcd we succeced and everything works but notification led is not working(it works but does not show up on lcd screen) can you guys tell me what did i do wrong.
We checked lcd before replacing it has a led place on screen.
Have a nice day.

I have the same problem. The LED does work, but because of the way it's designed it doesn't line up with the window in the display. There should be a little plastic tunnel that uses total internal reflection to direct the light to the hole in the screen. However, the replacement screens you and I bought didn't have the plastic light tunnel that directs the light to the window, so you can't see the LED. You could steal the plastic bit from the old one, but you'd have to remove the screen from the frame (which it's glued to) so I wouldn't recommend it.
