There is no signal for an "illegal screen". All such infractions must involved contact and are actually fouls. It could be a push, block, or hold, illegal use of hands, or a handcheck depending on the specific action...usually a block.

There is no specific jump ball violation signal. Just an open hand in the air with the whistle.
