Sometimes I got these screen display issues, they dissappear after 1 or 2 shutdowns/switch-offs. Anybody else? Idea, what it could be?

Intermittent Hardware issues on the display.

Might be a badly seated connector or two.?

Hence? Open the device and reapplicate all display connectors, you would suggest?

It would be the first thing I’d try.

But I’d give the connectors a good hard look under decent lighting and with a magnifying glass if you have one before moving them. IF you can see a fault yo fix you are considerably more reassured.
