    did your order the chip from china or did you get it stateside from a reputable source?

    It is not out of the realm of possibilities that you got a defective chip.

      Your gamma voltages look ok, they are monotonic and symmetric (if you mirror about the middle point, the difference between each step is similar) so yes it could be something else that is wrong.

        Got it off ebay but from a UK supplier. It was in a reel pack.
        I do not believe that I could have possible had a 1st original faulty board, buy a second hand one which produced the same fault, then replaced the chip on a suspect board and still have the exact same results. I would at least expect some different visual fault if this was to be the case. No one person could be that unlucky to replicate the exact same fault 3 times over. And as I mention, the bright white screen fault only occurred AFTER i pulled the LCD assembly apart to examine the tab bonds. Prior to this I had a different fault, which manifested itself on BOTH tcon boards in the EXACT same way. I really believe this is something else I have inadvertantly done, but can not fathom what.

          thanks Tom66, that re-assures me and mirrors my thinking also.
          So what else governs the gamma. I would suspect the tab bonds normally but I have been pressure pointing various points of the tab bonds with the screen on, but there has been no difference in display, so my gut feeling is not tab bonds.

              Bump!

              I have noticed on a couple of occasions after booting from cold, that the picture seems good, but withing less than 30 seconds, the screen has gone bright white again - is this an indication of anything I wonder?
              It does prove that the screen is capable of working correctly, but I am out of options as to what to try next.

                White screen repairs
                by harp
                To ask here... I have few devices with white screen problem, actualy nokia 2220 and some fuji? camera, and try to understand what is common problem to cause that issue.
                Yes, both devices work everything else probably ok, I mean, I hear intro melody and keypress click sound, DTMF tone, power on off... all ok.
                On desk is nokia 2220 slide, and I check all screen connectors and components arround it, measure voltage drop, but all looks ok. I suspect on slide flex cable, but it look ok and white screen is not interupt while flexing board, pushing conectors, and sliding up down. In attachment...

                samsung galaxy ao2s very temperamental after screen replaced
                by Chrissygizmo
                Hi , I've recently replaced the screen in my Samsung galaxy ao2s, at first it wouldn't even turn on, it had the charging symbol on the screen when plugged in but the green circle wasn't going around to show it charging....
                Ive eventually managed to get it on and working but it's very temperamental...

                The battery icon always reads as 50% , when the phone goes into lock screen mode i sometimes can't get the screen back on unless I plug the charger in to get it to light up, also it keeps putting the camera app on.. u think it could be something to do with the side buttons. ...

                Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
                by Ryan.man
                Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

                Sharp LC-65Q620U White Screen
                by EazyBone
                Another TV topic!!
                I got this sharp TV that when I first plugged it in it showed the sharp logo and then went to the input screen. This was about 30 seconds and then it showed white screen. Now I can't see anything but white screen. This has a separate TCON and Main.

                The TCON is getting 12V and several parts are as well but the VGH line is only .5Volts which I thought is totally incorrect.

                Am I on the correct assumption that the TCON is bad somehow if I'm only getting that voltage or is there something else I should check?...
