  • oled display showing only static

    Hello!!

    I'm new to the community (yay!) - bought my Deluge used, and it arrived today - but the display is showing only static (boo).

    Picture here: https://ibb.co/LRpKCH0

    Other functions seem to work, but it's a new machine to me, so I'm limited in my understanding. Lights are on, buttons make sound.

    So far I have tried:
    1. Downloaded the Official firmware V4.1.4 - for OLED Deluge and loaded it onto a NEW 128gb SD card. Put in the new card while holding down SHIFT - and the screen had static for a moment and then went blank. After a while I turned it off and then turned it on. Each time I power on it shows static for a moment and then the screen goes blank. If I put the original 32gb card it was sent with, then the screen just shows static. 128gb card shows static for a moment and then goes blank.

    1. I took out the screws and carefully took a look at the insides. The cables connected to the display seemed to be affixed firmly. There were four very small screws that had been rattling around loosely that I removed. I put it back together but there was no change in the device behavior.

    I would like to be able to resolve the issue rather than return to the seller. Any suggestions? TiA
