I purchased this monitor second hand a while back and it's been working fine for me until now. Every time a cable connects to an hdmi port my screen either flickers every 3 or 4 seconds or no signal.

It's kind of complicated but this is the best I can explain it:
The monitor has two outputs, HDMI or VGA, and I get flicker or no signal if I use the HDMI port. Even if I use a converter(i.e. HDMI to DVI) it still gives me the same results. Now, VGA works, as long as the end connection isn't an HDMI(i.e. VGA to DVI, VGA to DP).

I have no clue what the issue is, and I hope you understood my explanation. Thanks in advance for the help!
