What hardware is causing screen splitting issue on LG G4?
Testo:
-
I did a screen repair on a LG G4 because the screen was displaying a vertical split. I honestly believed that the lcd was at fault because usually that is what would cause something that looked like that. I replaced the screen only to have the new screen do the same thing. I have read tons of forums to find out that this is some kind of hardware issue, but have yet to find a solution. I am positive that it is hardware. But now I'd like to know what to do to fix it. There has to be something I can do. I watched a youtube vid of a person just holding a phone with this common issue. I read in the comments that somebody had heated the 'screen contact' on the motherboard (his words, not mine), and that worked for him, but he has no vids explaining that and no further comments on the vid. Any suggestions? To be more clear, half of the screen is either static or frozen.

I never really solved this issue and it was returned to the customer. However, I have some better theory as to why this happens. My suspicion lies on the LCD connector itself, although I can't be sure as I no longer have this phone. It would be really helpful if someone could get some close-up pictures of that area. I'm sorry that I didn't :*(
