    The wall seems vulnerable and squishy at the moment, and this might be the chance to break through and find reason on the other side! It's a long shot, but I don't lose a whole lot by responding.

    New information. Please update the OP to reflect this
    https://www.cultofmac.com/540953/ios-11-also-breaks-genuine-apple-displays-on-repaired-iphones/
     
    OEM displays are also being affected by this. 
     
    Only Apple serviced parts seem to be working.

    I've been able to put dual slot cards in those optiplexes. All that needs to be single slot is the bracket on the back of the card, there's room for a dual slot cooler

    UPDATE: OEM screens are behaving the same way if installed by a 3rd party as well!

    So even if you can get a genuine one, it'll still brick if you or a 3rd party install it.
     
     
    UPDATE 2: Apple releases iOS 11.3.1 with third-party display repair fix
    Sauce
    I'm glad this update was pushed out, but its still a bit crap that they would have this issue in the first place. I hope next time they also test their updates on phones repaired with third party parts before pushing them out to the public.

    First it was the home button, and now its the screen? This is getting insane.
     
    At LEAST give the end user a heads up that their phone is about to be turned into a paperweight before installing an update. This is just nuts.
     
    As we've seen with Linus himself, apple doesn't always fix your device, often leading to 3rd party repair as an only option. And now apple's going to kill your device because you had to bring it to a 3rd party repair store. Fantastic.

    The only way I can see apple making this right is to make another update that re-enables the 3rd party screens, and offer to put it on the phone, for free, right there in the apple store, since the end user can't exactly update the phone in its current state.
