Default Green/blue line on unlocked iPhone

I unblocked my 3GS at a retailer and noticed afterwards that when and only when I turn the phone on a electronic-type, blueish-green horizontal line appears a quater of the size of the screen. It disappears as soon I am prompted to enter the 4 digits to unlock my phone. Nothing else appears to be off. Has anyone seen this? Or know about it? I googled it with mixed results.

I talked to the company that did and it they told me that it happens commonly when you unlock iPhones. He said all they did was install Cydia, unblock it and reload my iTunes on it.

Thanks

My 3g did it when I jailbroke it. Probably has something to do with the hacked spring board loading.

I had that line on my 3G, even after I restored it to factory settings, is that normal?

It's just the by-product of a hacked bootloader. Jailbroken devices only.
