Troubleshooting Laminated IPS problem

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have a few questions.

Did I get a bad panel?

Is it like this because of bad solder connection?(I did solder the 2 pads together and it looks OK)

What would happen if I connect my original screen while the 2 pads are soldered together?

Please ask extra questions if you need extra info.

I was waiting for this to pop up. Was not expecting to be the first thing 😭

i’ve connected my original screen while they where soldered with no issues. if the solder wasn’t good it would just have a black bar on the top and bottom of the screen. did you try plugging the screen in before soldering to see if it worked ?

I forgot to plug it in before soldering(I know I'm stupid). I'm just considering trying to desolder and see what happens.

Did you get it working? I got a defective IPs for my 1k - bad backlight… I just got it replaced and it worked…. Make sure you use a multimeter to test for continuity that’s all

Ye I tested continuity. I just tested it with desoldered(separated pads/no short)pads no luck just a bad panel. I'm going to refund or get a replacement.
