This line is always the opposite color of the background. ie. black on a white background or white on a black background and on the sleep screen it is a contrasted gray that is relatively easily discernible.

The question is this: hardware problem? Or some sort of firmware/software problem that a refresh/reset could fix. I've emailed customer support at Banggood but they've yet to reply about warranties. Or are all such done through Onyx?
Most likely, Onyx will ask you to perform a factory reset. You may as well try to use the Mfg tool (post 176, pm me if you need the files). I had some strange display effects when updating until I reflashed the device using the Mfg tool. If this doesn't help, you hardware is most likely defective.
