MacBook Pro EARLY 2011: White screen, this's what I have tried...

Hi everyone

I am using MacBook Pro early 2011. I have upgraded it awhile back with an SSD and 16 RAM. It's running the lasted Mac OS, MAC OS Sierra.

My issue started yesterday, my MacBook Pro screen started to flicker and switch the image many time as my monitor. I had one plugged in (An example image would be this: https://i.stack.imgur.com/zGHEP.jpg).

RIGHT NOW, every time I turned my MacBook Pro Apple logo will load then I see a white screen.

BTW, Apple changed my motherboard or the graphite card awhile back because a manufacturer issue.

What I have tried:

1. Rest NVRAM.

2. Rest CMC.

3. Verbose mode.

4. Recovery mode. It will load the the Apple logo then go into white screen.

5. Internet recovery. It will load the globe then go into white screen.

6. Cmd + s.

7. Apple hardware test both regular and the extended one. It said no trouble.

8. Single user mode.

9. Switch the ram with the old one. Tried to leave just one.

10. Tried to boot using a usb had the os x on it. I can choose the usb to boot then see a white screen.

When I run the Macbook Pro and hit option, it will show me the ssd.

EVERYTHING I had tried will just lead me to the white screen. I tried to plug an external monitor and saw the white screen again.

Do you have any suggestion? please help!

I changed the icon to the 15" model because you said Apple fixed it.

There are couple of know issues on the model. The first you are familiar with, the GPU issue. The second was the hard drive/IR cable.

Usually a white screen is indicative of a failed hard drive and/or cable. To eliminate this, unplug the hard drive cable at the logic board and boot from your external source. If you external monitor exhibits the same problem, it is the GPU again. There was a class action law suit that preceded the extension program. I would first contact Apple directly, ask for a warranty exception since they did not successfully repair it the first go around.

UPDATE 7/18/17

I'd like you to boot from an external source,using the USB, either a external enclosure or a USB flash drive with 10.11 or 10.12 on it and disconnect the hard drive cable from the logic board before doing it. Please let us know your results.

Let's first see if the cable fix will do the trick and then address the possible GPU issue:

Do you know a video tutorial which explains the process of doing that?

They have fixed this issue for me in 2015. Right now, they won't take it!

According to them, I need a new logic-board which is not worth it.

I don't know what to do to be honest...

THANK you so much for your comment :)

Had this problem. Replaced the cable part and it works fine now. At same time upgraded to 16Gb RAM, 1Tb SSD and a new battery. Rejuvenated the MacBook to almost what it was like when originally bought.

Hi Mayer

I tried to do that, but still didn't work.

What worked for me was baking the logic board in the oven :)

Thank you so much for your help

p.s. I forgot my original account password so I have created a new one to reply to you

Baking your logic board in the oven?!

Where did you learn that trick?! 8-/

What does that men? How is that “oven baking” process? Please details.

Reflow is not repair, and it will fail again :/. When it happens again, expect it to fail sooner until you bake it to it's death. Get a 2012 MLB, or a good 2012 15" and migrate your old drive if your old one is better.
