    Dark cloudlike smudge in middle of screen

    I am hoping somebody can help to explain a couple issues I have with a Toshiba Regza 37WLT66 TV. It has what looks like a dark cloudlike smudge in the middle of the screen, which I have tried to show in the attached photos. I can't seem to see it when I have the menu screen up though. There is also something that looks like a frame to the right hand side and bottom corner - shown in one of the pictures attached. Other than that the picture and sound our excellent. The marks appear on all sources.

      I would say bad lcd on this one I have the same tv where the screen glitches out like crazy due to failed tab bond.

          Would the smudge in the centre of the screen be due to tab bond?

              Diffuser shifted ? Lay the tv on its back overnight and see if the shape of the smudge changes/disappears.

                  70LE660U dark cloud or black screen with sound.

                  Hello Everyone,

                  This is my first post so I will try to be as precise as possible without making this post too long winded. Unfortunately I don't have pictures of the original problem but I included images of the TV internals.

                  I have a Sharp 70LE660U. The problem started a few months ago with the bottom row looking out of sync and was dark on the left side and then fading to transparent on the right side. Shortly after, a dark cloud appeared in the center of the screen. The dark cloud started small and shaded but the image was visible. It also affected the menu area....

                  Samsung UE55JU6800K half screen dark
                  by Chrissygizmo
                  Hello everyone, I’ve just been given a Samsung UE55JU6800K smart tv as it had white spots on the screen due to the led lenses falling off. After refitting them & putting the tv back together I thought it was a nice easy fix for a free bedroom tv , then I tried it before screwing the back into place. I realised that the right side of the screen was darker than the other side, I removed the screen again as I thought the backlights had failed but they are fine.
                  I put the screen back in place & turned it back on . The screen seemed to be ok again but different screens on the same...

                  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 Aquos LC-70C6400U Half Screen Dark
                  by scubacamper
                  I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
                  Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
                  when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...

                  iphone XS turns off when press on screen.
                  by smic717394
                  Hi,

                  I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...
