Hi,
I've got a friend who dropped her S7 edge. The glass hasn't broken, but the screen flickers/flashes, to the point where it's hard to look at and almost impossible to use. Given the cost of new LCD units, replacing that isn't looking a likely option. I've taken the back off and disconnected everything in the (admittedly very slim) hope that it could have been a slight loose connection from the drop. When I connected everything back up and turned it on it was still flickering to start with, but after a while it returned to normal. This lasted about 20mins before the flickering started again.
Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong, and if it can be fixed, or has it just damaged the LCD without breaking the digitiser glass and it's time to go shopping for a new phone??
Thank you in advance.
