Hi folks, first time poster and first time owner of an android... it is a second hand SF, rooted and re flashed with Cynogenmod.
I purchased it for next to nothing with a known fault that it occasionally, had a narrow greeny-blue bar across the top of the screen, this I could live with.
Over time this has progressed to a flickering area of greeny-blue that is spreading down the screen. I took a screen shot of the fault and found the picture to be perfect, no greeny-blue bit, which suggests to me that this is a display hardware problem rather than software.
Do the experts here agree that it is likely to be hardware and therefore repairable?
I have no problem with taking it apart to replace the LCD display if this is the case.
Your thoughts and comment would be appreciated.
