It’s finally happened, my OnePlus has been through with me thick and thin, but this is the second time a screen has broken. The first was a major break, this time it’s just a row of dead pixels, it was really dim until I did a dead pixel repair program, that seemed to make it worse by unlocking whatever pink hell this is and making it fully kill the line of pixels. IDK. This is a OnePlus 8 pro, the one I got before they killed software support only 3 years in and the last “root friendly” one they made.

Think it’s worth it to get another whole screen and attempt a repair? Or rather sell it as is and try to get an upgrade.

End of an era I swear

    Dumb question, but is that pink line in a screenshot? Or did you add it in afterwards or take a well cropped photo?

      No lmao no worries, I added it in post roughly around where it is. I just didn’t have a second phone to take a photo with

        You could have used the selfie cam against a mirror, but I think this one does the job.

      Yeah, I’m confused about that as well. It wouldn’t show up in a screenshot if it was a display issue?
