Typically a green screen is a chip ram issue. Check all traces for breaks. If you have a microscope it helps a lot.

Well, I finally got a few minutes to look at it.  Found no continuity between D1 and D2 and the U105 and U106 buffers.  It seems the traces erode right at the vias.  So i jumpered across those but still a green screen.  My guess then is a couple more of the vias closer to the battery, I need to trace those out.

Also the schematics I found online have different ram chips than my board.


Dont forget to do jumps on back of board too when you have a broken VIA. Thats what they are after all.
