Purple Splotches - additional info
I did see another user asking about something similar, but no response.
Attached is a pic of the screen in it's misery -
Klue, thanks for the response. No, I don't have a screen protector, nor has the phone been dropped or jarred. Weird pattern, yeah.
Angela, I'm 'assuming' the screen has a crack or something, too small for me to notice. Earlier this year, in March, yes, one of my cats bit the corner of the screen, causing a small crack. She's such a sweetheart. I did have an Asurion tech come out back then and replace the screen, so this is NOT the original screen.
As I said, I'm thinking there is a small crack on this and have placed a service ticket.
Even though I don't have a circuit diagram, I'm pretty sure these phones have a memory chip dedicated to the screen. I'm wondering if maybe that memory chip isn't allowing the pixels to be written or read back properly. Also, the logic that drives that function could be faulty, as well as maybe a loose or damaged ribbon cable. I'm hoping it's the latter.
Nonetheless, the display is getting progressively worse, so it's tough to read the bottom area, now
Attached is what the screen has progressed to.
