Chosen Solution

ok, so i replaced the screen following this iFixit guide (great guide BTW), powered on, but all i get is a bad day at the black watch. nothing but snow. any ideas, do i need a remote to change the input to hdmi, as i bought it with the cracked screen sans accessories. or could there be a problem with the control board, all the buttons work, sound from speakers briefly until the mute kicks in. initial startup shows the Gaems ‘G’ logo on a black background, which hints that the screen is good. thanks nae

What I did to resolve this issue was unplug the display and wait for the red light in the power button to disappear then wait about ten seconds to plug in back in then turn it on. Repeat if necessary

there is nothing you can do. you’ve bought one with the known channel change bug. i think the guy, where you’ve bought it from, did used an universal remote and accidently changed the channel to one that is not the hdmi channel. i wrote to gaems and there is no known way to change it back to hdmi. i’m sad to say, but i think your g155 is scrap.
