    LG 65uh5500 screen issue

    Replaced LEDs and found screen has cracked corner - didn't see it originally when I got the TV, no illumination. Unit delivered from back of a pick up truck wrapped in a drop cloth. �� Should have known better to check it first but didn't. �� I'm wondering if there is a way to salvage the screen by eliminating ribbon feeds to the damaged section. Thinking I may also have a T-con issue too. Removed & cleaned T-con ribbon cables & connectors to no avail. I have heard that the ribbons go bad and a lot of complaints online about the failure rate of this TV, that even LG techs can't remedy. Any suggestions appreciated, all ribbon cable checked for defects, none found. I've dealt with cracked screens before but they run horizontal and kill the screen, hoping this might be a different case.

    thanks,
    rich

    You can rip off the flex ribbon on the leftmost side (on the bottom) to block signals to that section but looks like there is other damage as well.

      Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100 - BIOS Issue, Black Screen
      by wizard13
      Hello everyone,

      I am experiencing a BIOS-related issue with my Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100. When I power on the laptop, the screen stays black, and there is no response from the system. I suspect a corrupted BIOS.

      I have checked the forum and the available documentation but could not find a solution specific to my issue.

      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...

      HELP - Contrast/brightness issue with subtitles on screen
      by cloudy
      Hi everybody
      Since day one I'm having an unpleasant contrast/brightness issue on my Asus laptop.
      Basically while watching movies, if subtitles appear on screen, the contrast or the brightness of the entire screen increases a lot (not sure if it'is brightness or contrast), disturbing the viewing of the movie.

      Last year I replaced my screen because got damaged and this contrast/brigthness issue persists. It happens only on the laptop screen, in fact If i plug an external HDMI screen the issue does not occour on it.

      It occours both on ubuntu and windows...

      Samsung UE48JU7000 screen issue after backlight replacement
      by ScHAmPi
      Hi all,

      Because of two bright spots and a couple of dark spots I decided to replace the backlights in my Samsung UE48JU7000. See attached photos:


      I thought all went well, but after full assembly and testing it out it turns out not all is fine. The backlights are completely fine but I have some weird issues on the right half of the screen. Since I didn't really touch the T-CON board (apart from taking out the ribbons of the display and reconnecting them on assembly) it would be weird that the issue is with the T-CON board... But based on the behavior of the service...

      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...
