hi everyone, this is my first official post on the forums, and well i need ur help on my phone, for some reason when i slide my phone the screen shows like random lines etc, then when i slide it back it does the same, and itll take like a good 30 mins to get the screen right to its proper look, usually itll show like blue, or green, and even sometimes i get that "White Screen" where id see it everytime i slide or slide it back so idk, and even when i soft reset, either the screen is out of line or itll show those random lines again also to add to that sometimes the soft keys on the front dont work at times soo idk if its the ROM i just put in which was from T-Mobile or my screen :/.....i need ur help, cuz i might consider getting the screen replace or load the bootloader....appreciate the help and btw heres my video i just posted to give a good clearance of what im talking about and when i show the phone up close im fiddling with the power button to show how it is, thnx

ok well i put the old rom, the one that came with when i first got it, and still no luck....could it be a faulty screen connection? or the screen dying? and btw the phone has a real irritating noise.... and also on bootup he screen wont be aligned....idk what to do...

God..... Vital information you didnt put in... if you hear the noise, then its a goner. it prolly has a leaky capacitor, or the screen is some how desoldered and shorting out the board.

well whats the best bet? should i get this repaired as soon as possible???? or get a new one? and doubt bout the second reason, cuz the noise stops when my screen is off(of course) and sometimes when its in portrait mode, ya the screen would be on and would be white but none of that hating noise
