Dunno, today I looked at my calculators LCD and there's faint lines in the screen...

Is that normal, and how do I remove them?

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is the Blue Lines of Death. It happens when your LCD crystals are overloaded with power, and they turn blue. AFAIK, they're irreversible.

It could be a failed solder joint in the screen's flex cable. Kermmartian supposedly deals with these a lot. When you say they're faint, do you mean the lines aren't as dark as usual, or are they off completely?
