IPAD mini 4 has green lines that run down the face of device need help finding out the problem.

The IPAD works fine and every thing works. But the screen has green lines that show up. The warranty has expired so I want to know if it would be cheaper to have apple to fix it or if fixing it myself. The screen does seem to be normal until you open apps and it starts slowing showing up. So if any one has any idea of whats wrong that would be great. I'm expecting it to be a screen replacement but I want to be certain.

iPad mini 4, iOS 12

Try Some Troubleshooting?


  1. Restart:  Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
  2. Reset:  Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
  3. Restore:  Connect your iPhone to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory. If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple.


For help with the above on later models, including iPhone 7, 7s, 8 or later, iPad Pro 11" and iPad Pro 12.9" models, please refer to If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen.


If all else fails then make an appointment at the Apple Genius Bar for service. If you need to find an Apple Store - Find a Store - Apple. If you did not purchase it from Apple then you will need to look to the vendor for service or How to find your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or Distributor (AAD).
