Screen lines on your Android device can appear due to several reasons—some temporary, others serious. Dead pixels, water damage, physical drops, outdated software, or faulty connectors can all lead to visible lines. These lines might stay in one place or flicker and move.
Before rushing to a service centre, it is smart to understand what’s causing the issue. Some lines result from internal pressure on the display, while others signal deeper issues like screen burn-in or GPU faults.
Quick troubleshooting steps to fix screen lines
Here are some easy steps to try before heading to a technician:
- Restart your phone: Sometimes, it is just a temporary glitch that clears on reboot.
- Enter safe mode: Booting in safe mode disables third-party apps that might be causing screen issues.
- Update your phone software: Manufacturers often push fixes in newer Android versions.
- Gently press the screen edges: If the screen lines appeared after a drop, connectors may have shifted.
- Check for app conflicts: Uninstall recent apps to see if the issue disappears.
If these quick fixes solve the problem, you are good to go! But if not, and your phone feels outdated or sluggish, it might be time for an upgrade. Buy a new Android phone from Bajaj Finserv through their 1.5 lakh+ partner stores across 4,000 cities.

Advanced fixes for persistent screen line issues
If the lines still will not go away, the problem could be deeper:
- Loose LCD connectors: These need expert hands to reattach.
- Defective GPU or screen: May require a full screen replacement or motherboard check.
- Water damage or drop trauma: Moisture or shocks can damage internal circuits.
In such cases, visit a certified service centre for inspection. If your warranty is valid, you might get a free fix or replacement.
But sometimes, repair costs are nearly as high as buying a new device. That is when upgrading makes more sense. And with Easy EMIs from Bajaj Finserv, you can get the latest smartphone without breaking the bank.
How to prevent vertical or horizontal lines on your Android screen
Prevention is always better than cure—especially when it comes to your phone screen. Here are tips to keep your display line-free:
- Use a tempered glass screen protector to reduce impact from drops.
- Avoid keeping your phone in tight pockets that may put pressure on the screen.
- Update your OS regularly to prevent software-induced glitches.
- Avoid overcharging or overheating as it can impact display hardware.
- Clean your phone gently and avoid moisture buildup in ports or screen edges.
A little care goes a long way. And if your current phone is too old to save, consider switching to a newer model with better durability and support. With Easy EMI options, zero down payment, and
exclusive offers, Bajaj Finserv lets you shop smart and stress-free.
