Pinetime Screen issue after bootloop troubles
#2
@Spater I posted your thread to Discord, hopefully somebody will see it there and help you out.

One if the people there have already stated it shouldn't be possible for software to cause the display issues you see.

Some questions (from me):

1. Which PineTime firmware are you using? (Just encase it does end up being related to software)
2. Has the watch received any water or shock damage? (It looks like the display has received shock)
3. How snug is the PineTime inside that case? I would suggest it is possible it has be exerting significant pressure over time and has eventually broken the display.

FYI I've been using my PineTime daily for years now. The only thing that seems to have caused a small amount of issue are the x-ray scanners at airports.

@Spater Now I look at your display again, the bottom right and left seem to have some cracks in the display? I assume you printed the case to prevent further damage, but it could be that damage has been slowly (and silently) happening until recently. It could be as simple as some stress or moisture propagating around the display, and only now has it fully broke.

If that's the situation, you may be looking at a new display, or more than likely a new PineTime. I would in than scenario suggest a new PineTime as it looks like the aluminum is a little dented on the bottom left.
