Hi hope I'm asking this question in the right place.
I have a Star Note N9770 which had a smashed display - daughter knelt on it. The phone still appeared to work, though we couldn't see anything. I bought a "bricked" N9770 on ebay and used the display unit from that (it really was bricked - wouldn't turn on or charge) to replace the smashed unit.
We now have a display and everything appears to work and it charges. Except for the colours on the display - they are very pale/faint/washed out (hard to describe and I'm not allowed to post an image yet as a newbie). I've tried the brightness and contrast levels, factory reset, hard reset, etc, but it makes no difference.
Tbh, it reminds me of a driver issue in PCs - the colours and resolution don't look right. Is this possibly the problem? And is there a solution that anyone might know? It really was just a project - I like fixing things
But to get this far and it not be perfect is frustrating.
Our original smashed phone, from where I got the motherboard was not rooted.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions
