Why is my screen purple with lines that flicker across the screen?

My tab has been playing up and i cant do anything on it as the screen does not focus. The screen is purple and then lines come across it when i finally unlock the tab. It gets worse when i open an app and the screen just flickers and i cant see anything. Is there some way it can be fixed?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Sounds like a loose connection with the LCD ribbon

To fix remove the back cover and make sure the LCD thin strips are properly plugged in.

The black strip will say STI_LCD

On it.
