I don't know what this is called, the screen has a ghost of what it was showing before, rapidly flickering around ~0.5cm and ~2cm above the original position. On reboot it initially returns to being black, but by the time it gets to disc decryption, ghosts appear. Sometimes the unlock screen's clock can be striped over the phosh apps dashboard, sometimes it's just the apps dashboard split into two. Sometimes it goes back to black stripes.
This started happening on my second time booting the pre-installed Manjaro + plasma, when I was expecting the phone to boot into the SD card's PostmarketOS + phosh but didn't due to partitions being messed up. The problem persists in all successful PMOS boots.
I asked for help in the chats, got some advice on re-plugging the monitor ribbon cables, and I think I did that but nothing changed (it seemed to have made things worse at first, but maybe that was a placebo effect). I say I think I did that because I can't figure out which ribbon cable is the monitor one, so I just unplugged + re-plugged all ribbon-like ones that I saw.
I'm quite thrilled about everything that's working, if the screen can look stripe-free that would be just perfect.
