Did you try removing the battery and rebooting?

Yes , I did, it's the same

If you bought it from a local BN store and it's still under warranty or within the return period, you might want to take it in and have someone look at it. Sounds like a hardware problem, perhaps a damaged screen.

the problem is the device is shipped to me internationally by forward-shipping service,
i checked their website, unless i have extended warranty, they won't cover such defect (accidental damage)!!!
I will check again though
