Fixed Ipad Air 2 LCD with inverted colors, white static, shadows. Hit it but replacing LCD fixed it.



Disclaimer: Boring Video.
Long story short,.. I had a broken ipad air 2 which would display the colors all wrong. The colors looked like they were inverted. When I used the camera app, and looked at anything dark or black, it appeared as white static dots. Sometimes, it did appear as green colored.

So as you may have checked.. plenty of people have made suggestions on this:
inverted colors, green colors, snowy or static background. Blacks are all messed up.

1. Hit the back of the ipad. No luck!

2. Updated the Ipad. Factory Reset the Ipad. Itunes firmware restore. No Luck.

3. Replaced Battery. No luck

4. Reseated the LCD connection to ipad mainboard. (multiple times. no luck)

5. Tested screenshot, video, camera, and screen recording. When images/video transfered to a different computer. It looked just fine.

6. What was left? Replace the LCD.

Yep,.. it was hard securing a decent LCD replacement since for the ipad air 2, the LCD costs around $100 new. They don’t sell used ones, but on ebay you can find parts ipads. This is what I did. I found a parts ipad for $80 and purchased that (so I wouldn’t have to deal with moving over parts like the home button).

Long story short.. I replaced the LCD.. and it fixed my inverted colors, white static, and shadows on the broken LCD.

I did test the broken LCD on a different Ipad.. and the problem showed up their.. suggesting the LCD was indeed broken.

Good luck
