    Lg 55ef950 oled screen artifacts

    Hello there, my tv is showing weird screen artifacts whenever I try to play something on YouTube, or connect to any hdmi device

    Menus all look crisp and clear, YouTube video selection looks clear as wel, the artifacts only appear when i click on a video to play or switch to HDMI device
    I have no experience with tv repairs only laptops

    Here some pictures. Anyone have any idea what's the cause of this and what needs to be replaced to fix this?

    Io might take a look at the block diagrams, but for now it seems to me more like a cpu soldering problem, maybe the connection to a certain ddr memory chip where decoding is made.. or it has to do with video rights protections..

      The cpu? I was thinking more about gpu or memory fault as there are similar artificats on laptops as wel when gpu fails, but am not really fimiliar with television.
      Also i couldn't find a diagram for this tv model
      Here on the picture u can see there are 2 logic boards on back of the tv

        I was thinking to try to repair one of those boards or order new one if i could pin point which one of those 2 is faulty and responsible for the artifacts, the middle one should be the tcon board i suppose, but the one on right side is another logic board , that's why I am not sure which one is faulty

            When you switch off the to use the remote after it’s been on a good few minutes, then turn off with the remote and wait until red light turns off, try that it clears the screen…
            Then if that doesn’t work, maybe use a service remote in-stop and In-start

              The BGA with the XD logo left in the upper corner near the LVDS cables could be the culprit. All low resolution is displayed correct but the high resolution is not, had that once and after replacing the BGA it was gone.

                Apple iMac A1311 EMC#2428 | Lines, colors, artifacts, perfectly fine, black screen, no boot
                by blazie151
                TLDR; LCD panel with weird display, apparent boot lock right before home screen, total GPU reflow showed no change.

                Title pretty much says it all. Sometimes the screen looks fine, other times its yellow lines, completely green, blue with flashing areas, etc. I tried pretty much everything I could think of. I tried a clean install to Ventura off of an OCLP USB I made just for it, and it gets all the way to where you would expect the home screen to appear before it goes full black screen and locks up. I tried putting in a disc or USB or anything I could think of to make noise or show...

                Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 14IAH8 - Type 83BF OLED Blank screen
                by Kalman27
                We have a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 14IAH8 - Type 83BF for repair. The original issue the OLED screen is blank.

                We have replaced the OLED screen with the exact model, also we replaced the LCD cable, but no luck.

                I think there is something with the motherboard. I don't really have experience with OLED screens so far, so not sure how it should work. I have seen some laptop comes with a separate controller board, but this model does not.

                Also, there is an error in Windows device manager - This device cannot start (Code 10) - Intel(R) Serial IO I2C Host Controller...

                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...

                LG 55EC930V OLED - swich on swich of no screen
                by maxim2511
                My Oled Tv is 55inch tv, 3 days ago I notice that middle of the screen is getting warmer and on picture I have ghosting, missing red color. Color red was still displaying, but it was not so strong as corners of the screen and watching some movies makes me angry.
                Then I get an idea to take it apart and clean boards from dust.
                In side of Tv was not so bad, I take compressed air in can, and gently blow up.

                Also I was thinking to styrofoam sponge to isolate power board from screen that the middle of the screen will not worm so much. Because Led on screen when gets higher...

                TCL 55S451 Stuck on Logo Screen But Working Otherwise
                by odie34
                I have a TCL 55S451 that's stuck on the logo screen. I've done all of the traditional troubleshooting steps (power cycling, holding the reset button, etc.), but nothing has worked. I thought the main board was dead, but then I realized that even though it was only showing the logo screen, it appeared to be responding to remote buttons.

                So I pressed the reset button again and used the remote to put the TV into screen reader mode. I was then able to navigate through the setup menus (including successfully connecting to the internet) in order to update the firmware. I thought that that...
