[Q] Dropped Xoom - now screen random displays like this

[lchiu7]

I recently dropped my Xoom (in a case onto a carpeted floor). It semeed to survive but now the display shows distorted colors like the sample attached. I thought it might be a loose connection but I can be working away and the screen will revert to normal and stay that way for days.

And I can suspend it while it's okay, come back to it and the display is corrupt again.

Can anybody work out what could be going on? I would prefer not to have to replace the screen but I don't really know if that is the issue if it reverts back to normal all the time.

Thanks

The screenshots look fine to me, how about upload the images of your LCD screen not screenshots.

Silly me. The screen shots look distorted to me also because I was posting on the device!

Yeah looks like a loose connector to me. You may be able to fix it if it was a soldering joint. I guess the repair can do the same thing.

I dropped my tablet recently and the screen got screwed like yours, but mine is worse. I don't know too much about hardware, but I think that it's the crystal that broke, so it may be hard to fix :/. Anyway, if you get it back working I hope you to share some info with me, as well I will do if I get working .
