The display used to flicker, now it's completely white! PLease HELP!

Question

So, my display used to flicker with horizontal lines all over it, and slightly adjusting the angle of opening would fix this, but about a week ago it lightened a few times, then got stuck being really light with the desktop being barely visible, though better from way down angle (if you open it all the way out) and looking like a negative from the way up angle. I restarted it, and the problem persisted. I shut it down for a day, and, upon startup, the screen is now completely white with nothing visible on it. I had connected the PB to my tv using the s-video out jack on the back and I can see the desktop clearly on it, but it's extremely difficult to read any text, largely due to my tv being big and not hi-def. So far I had tried fixing or diagnosing it by switching resolutions and calibration in the "display" area of System prefs and also in universal access "seeing" tab, I've reset the PMU and still nothing. Here's what's going on: if I start visualizer on the iTunes, both the TV and the stock display flicker to black, then the TV does the visualizer thingy and the display goes back to white. The apple logo backlight is on no problem at all times as well. The laptop was never dropped, handled roughly or subjected to extreme temps. The flickering problem had first appeared when I had relized that I only had about a minute for the battery to go completely empty (my 'puter is almost 3 years old). The recall for the displays covers laptops manufactured about 2 months after mine, otherwise all the symtoms listed in the recall match. Does anyone know what I should do next? I had read about getting a new LCD inverter, but at the same time I am now unemployed and really have no dough.... I'm a sound engineer, and I need my PB to be mobile. The only thing that had happened recently is that I installed the newer version of Pro Tools on my machine, LE 6.9. Please HELP!

You might have to restore the pictures from your ""backup" you have on iCloud. But, then again, that would put your iPhone back to the last state it was in when doing that backup. But at least you would have all your pictures back.
iin any case, I wouldn't do any further backups or any changes to your iCloud account, until you've got your pictures back again. Proceed cautiously and carefully at this point, until you get an answer that will safely restore the pictures.
