Screen all out of phase and no color? quick fix at all?

[dahui9]

:confused:

well I turned my phone on the other day after letting it sit for a week, and its bassically all white screen but still has a little bit of the blue range, and the letters and icons and such looks like a screen thats out of tune.

when I go to boot loader for the red ble green white, its completely white except where it shows in blue/purple the boot loader information.

anyone know if I can fix this or do I need a new screen?

I also took the thing completely apart thinking it was a bad connection but nothing helped when I put it back together, also have tried another os to the same avail

You might need to reseat the lcd screen cable/ribbon.

Well I took the phone completely apart but did not wipe all the contacts like a doe doe, look like the ribbon cable has some scratches on it but doesn't look like anything is contacting metal so I tried to mend it with electrical tape and I still have the problem, looks like next I'll take it apart again and use some alcohol on it.

and yes its safe for work haha most places block it off

i read somewhere here on xda that if the screen's colors are out of whack, it is recommended to REMOVE the battery and let the device sit for a few hours/days.

then put the battery back in and see if that fixes things up...
