Crashed my bike last week and after this the screen on my note 2 wouldn't turn on, the buttons lit up and it received texts and FB messages.
Gave it to a repair shop the same day, in shop I saw him check the display flex cable and it was normal. He tried it with multiple screens and it wouldn't power on.
Got it back and at home, using the MHL cable I can work the phone through my TV, the touch still works as does the SPen.
The screen doesn't have any visible crack so I assume it's still fine.
When I crashed the phone was compressed on it's left side (pretty sure, could be right side). I found a post here suggesting the screen connector could have come off the motherboard, what do you guys think?

After a lot of work, I got Screen Mirroring to work on my Tab 3 8 inch only to find that media such as Netflix wasn't full screen. I have since borrowed a Chromacast intending to purchase one of my own to work with my Note 4 or Chromebook. I tried it on my Tab 3 for the hell of it to find it was, in fact, full screen. I'd love to save the money and not buy a Chromacast if I don't have to. So does anyone know why Chromacast would be full screen and the built in Screen Mirroring would cut off the sides?
I'm finding a lot of dead ends in search as no one ever seems to fix the issue. Or either they claim it use to work prior to Lollipop of whatever Samsung device they have at the time whether that be S5, S4, or Note 3. I'm still on 4.4.2 though.
This guy on Youtube was having the same problem. If you go to the 1:55 mark, you can see what it looks like when using Screen Mirroring while Chromacast fills up the entire screen. Thank-you for any suggestions or expertise you may have.

Hi Folks.
I searched the forum for related issues but only found one other user who never got a response. I recently took it upon myself to replace the usb/charging board and mic on my stock sph-l900 note II running 4.4.2. Prior to the repair the display was perfect. Anyhow i replaced the board and when I powered up the phone the display seems to have lost the ability to display black. The Note II launch screen looks brown, so brown i would call it woodgrain. I double checked all connections and messed with every every display setting, none of which solved the problem. The touchscreen still works, the phone runs everything beuatifully, but the display gamma is too high by at least .6 everywhere on the screen.
Is this a matter of dust between the digitizer and screen? IS this even a problem anyone is remotely aware of? I have a cheap replacement glass but that was not an endeavor I wanted to attempt. Any ideas what to attempt short of replacing the screen? Any ideas at all?
So somebody gave me a tablet that they had "dropped in the bathtub" .. Figured I'd take a gamble at fixing it as when powered on , no display or backlight but all the sounds and digitizer seemed to work ok.
Got the lcd+digitizer on Ebay, powered on ... back light works but no display .... figured i'd go deeper, bought a used mobo .. I did this as a gamble knowing it'd be easier to toss the thing and try and sell the screen locally but mobo+screen should be a sure deal to get it going again.
When I power on into recovery mode/flash mode the resolution is still interlaced which leads me to believe it could be hardware ...
Just charging it now to give it a flash with Kies but wondering if anyone has experienced this or can give guidance on what to troubleshoot. Google has yielded nothing.
Touch works, but my touches don't line up to what's on the screen.
After I updated my Galaxy Tab S4 to Android 10 with One UI 2, the screen became like the picture attached. Now half of the screen is occupied by black and white stripes.
I contacted Samsung and tried all the possible troubleshooting solutions but in vain, the problem still existed.
I also started a thread on Samsung community about this issue, and I got a lot of replies about the same screen problem that happened with many people.
https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5...en-issue-after-android-10-update/td-p/1837825
Still no response from Samsung about that.
Please can you help me with this issue?
I got 100% same problem
I try downgrade and same
But mine its from damage during shipping, the glass covering the amoled is cracked but I hope the screen its not affected.
Now I'm waiting the HDMI to usb type c cable to arrive to see if its screen or motherboard problem

Do you fix it or you find what is wrong?

Hi at all the community, and Merry Christmas, oh oh oh
I made this post because i want to clear the situation about this very diffused issue that occur on samsung tab s4. I'm going to buy a tablet in the same screen condition in the attached picture, but before i want to know if the problem is related to the screen only or it's an hardware issue that affect the motherboard.
Please if anyone has fix this, please share a solution because in internet there are tons of user that ask for that and i haven't found if it's a screen or motherboard problem.
Thanks and wish you a merry christmas to all the community

unfortunately this is not screen issue, this is RAM or CPU issue, i did a Reballing and RAM replacement on Customer's TAB S4 and the issue was solved.

Thanks biohazard for your reply, i'm going to examinate the motherboard I really trust in yor words and is what i believe..
Anyway someone else can confirm after changing the screen this kinda of issue persist?
I want to clear the situation share your experience!
I can confirm what biohazard16 said, it's not oled screen problem or display coonection problem but hardware problem on the motherboard. I've tried to connect my tablet using MHL cable to a TV and the picture on the TV is perfect without any glitch, clear of any half screen issue. I've tried to install another original screen 100% working and i've still had the same half screen issue, it's not a screen problem.
I search a lot in internet for complete schematics or boardview for this Tab S4 but i've only found a service manual that doesn't help. If anyone have boardview or any other Oled pinout please post.
I think that Samsung after made a good tablet, wich a large amount of these have the same screen issue, must be release the complete schematics because people with good skills can repair a Project/Assembly mistake made by Samsung, but till now from Samsung 0 news.
At this point i want go through the problem and i've attached a picture of what IC need to be reball/resolder.
biohazrd16 or anyone can confirm i'am right?
I start thinking that reapir this kind of issue is like the 3rd secret of Fatima ;-)
