My 12.2 Galaxy Tab Pro just started having a greenish blinking vertical 2 inch wide strip on the right side of the screen. When I put pressure on the sides of the screen or twist the screen a little it goes away. It also goes away sometimes then the screen rotates from horizontal to vertical. I took a screenshot but it didn't show the green strip. Is the digitizer failing? Something else? Any help is greatly appreciated.

The screenshot cannot capture the vertical line because it takes a copy of output from the mainboard. When pressing on the LCD to make it goes away is the sign your LCD starts to fail.

Thanks for the info. Looks like I will have to replace the LCD or the tablet.

A used LCD assembly is around $170 to $180 ( with frame ) or new one without frame is only around $180 to $190, this one you have to re use the frame and home button.
Your mainboard can last another 2 years if you know how to do the maintenance ( fix battery connectors ).

So, few days ago my Touch pro(GSM) started with this weird issue. It looks like a circular spot <1cm diameter. It looks like pressure is applied to the display from back of the display. I tried to take photo when I disassembled phone and tried to resolve this, but display is glossy and camera cannot properly focus :-( spot i located in place where there are hatch(door) mechanism on back. When I dissasembled phone there was nothing causing pressure. I found out that if I press corners on diagonal axis spot disappears. I think that back of the display is arched in some way and pressure on chasis of phone press arched back againts lcd crystals. It happened when I was wearing my TP in jeans pocket. So first thought was that some stich in pocket, or something was presing againts display, but I am almost sure that this is caused by pressure on body of phone. Its night here so I will see tommorow If dissasembling, tinkering with screwdriver helped, but I dont believe this much. Question is: Did someone experienced this kind of issue? How do you resolved it? Will buying new display from ebay help?(I think yes, but there is possibility that display is ok and body is deformed in some way)
Thanks for your time.
Does it look as an oil spot?
Try to raise the membrane with vacuum or sticker and you'll see,if it disappears for a moment.
If so,I am affraid,you have to replace display/digitizer.
I got this oilspot on one of my Himalayas.
Also touch isn't working on this place,anywhere else is working,but after raising the membrane.
Well, I am 100% sure that digitizer is ok, because spot was on display. Touch functionality was ok but display was having strange colors and after disappearing light yellow tint in place of spot. As I took apart my Touch pro, I was ok with buying new display so I looked how old si attached to the case and bended it a little. Spot disappeared and display is still ok and I consider it repaired. Maybe it was really only the bended back or it was one of those self repairing defects.

-sorry i have poor english-
I have an Lg G2. Works great.
Yesterday I noticed some weird behavior. The screen was finicky and hard to use. The screen is cracked on the two left corners of the phone but the display area is perfect. The picture looks perfect...
I decided to open up an app where I could draw and it turns out I can't get any input on a perfect row about an inch or so from the top of the screen, and about half an inch across, all the way from one side to another. I can color in the whole screen but it's perfectly blank on that one row.
I did some research and figured it might be some loose connector with the digitizer.
Is this possibly an easy fix?
I have warranty but no insurance
Thanks!!!
Bump
Check the connectors
You cant really cause anymore damage by just checking the connectors going to do that when i get home tonight, I'll tell you if it works
As i could not find a thread of my phone i'll post it here instead...
so i have a problem with my phone...
today i started noticing kinda brighter lines on my 5.95 inch screen, like horizontally really close to the bottom edge of the screen,covering about 1x5 millimeters and then some more tiny stripes there, and also like vertically some stripes really close to the right edge of my screen.
I first tought that something is on my screen or under my screen protector but then i realized that its like under my screen...
I tought that these were just some dead pixels or smthng but
When i turned my screen off i was still able to see these lines
i tried removing the battery but i was still able to see 'em
I literally have no idea what it is and i have never heard of it or seen it.
Hi,
Will need to know your exact device make and model to help point you in the right direction for help. ?
Hi guys,
I have replaced the screen in my nexus 5 twice now. I purchased the screens from Amazon. The first screen on white backgrounds I would kind of see a square image on the screen in white. It kind of looked like the outline of the battery. It also had a few white spots on the screen. I tried loosening some of the screws but it didn't help. I contacted the seller and he recommended another replacement. He sent out another screen plus digitizer and frame.
The new screen arrived and I put it in. This screen is a lit better. I know only get 3 tiny white spots about the size of the screws in the nexus 5. Two look like they are where the battery would be inside the phone. The third is about 3 quarters of the way up the screen in the middle and slightly to the left. Why does this keep happening? Anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this?
One thing I have noticed is in the dark with the screen on around the sides of the phone in places I can see slivers of light shining around the screen. It seams that the tape that the screen provider used was not sticky enough. Could this be what is causing the white spots? The screen seams firmly attached at the top and bottom just the sides. I heated it up with a blow dryer and held the screen down till it cooled. It slowly goes back to the way it was.
Thanks,
Rocky
Light bleeding from the edges of the frame in a dark environment is not uncommon with 3rd party screens. Putting on a case can help a lot.
As for the white spots, it may be a manufacturing defect that has nothing to do with the way you assembled the phone.
So there is nothing that can be done about the white spots? I don't understand how both screens did this. Seams like there is a very high failure rate. From comparison and matching numbers s to the stock digitizer the replacement seams to be a stock digitizer and frame. The white spots are annoying.
It's possible that both screens came from the same production run. I used screens from aliexpress and only one had a bit of light bleed around the frame. Once I put on a case, you could not see the light bleed.
None of the replacement screens had any dead or stuck pixels or hot spots.
