Accidentally thwapped my phone. It now has a line of white pixels in the middle that came up some time after thwapping. Heard this can be cleared with a lighter flame to the bottom. Is this true?
God no. Don’t be stupid.
No. If you’re lucky, you could take the phone apart and reconnect the ribbon connector that goes from the display to the board and it will be fixed. More likely the display is damaged and would need replaced. No chance a lighter will fix it.
Where did you hear that setting your phone on fire works fix the screen? Out of curiosity.
probably from “a tiktok”
Dunno, but I heard some were that you can fix your phone by microwaving it.
This recharges the bars, too!
(/s, if it was t obvious. Don’t microwave yer phone.)
That sounds like the connection itself to that row somehow got fucked up. A flame probably isn’t going to fix that.
You can put a flame to a screen for a few seconds and they are usually fine. But really, you should be looking into a screen repair or a new/used phone.
Just get a new screen kit online. For most phones, they’re fairly reasonably priced. (But not Pixel, not even a 5 from 2020).
Try thwapping it more.
After heating it with a lighter. 😆
Try putting it in the microwave.
If you try , make sure you film it.
