hey dude i have the same problem with my iphone 4 let me know what was the problem pls

@jeyran278 Apple didn't tell me, they just sent a replacement with a letter basically saying "sorry your phone broke, here's a replacement." It seemed like the ribbon connector to the display came loose, though, so if you can't send yours in you might be able to repair it by taking it apart and securing connections. I think ifixit has screwdrivers for the funky anti-tamper screws. Good luck!

I actually just sent it in a few days ago, a replacement is on its way. If it's not covered under warranty you'd probably have to open it up yourself and make sure the ribbon connector to the display is secure.

I think it's the display connector coming loose, but it isn't doing it very much anymore. I can't send it in for repairs for a month or so >.<

It could be a bad connection or a old or bad graphics card
