Flickering screen on HTC Blue Angel - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Blue Angel users (PDA2K / XDA IIs / etc.),
I recently got a 2nd-hand unit, and noticed some really bad flickering near the bottom of the screen. They seem to be especially evident when viewing the screen outdoors. It is so bad and obvious that the screen almost seems to be bouncing!
Anyone else have similar experience, or did I get a lemon?

bummer...it looks like you may have scored a lemon....
i just recently bought a sx-66 on ebay and got it with a blown speaker
luckily, the ebayer i bought it from was awesome and replaced it....
got it about two weeks ago and so far all is good...the hardest part is getting to know it after using an SX-56 for almost three years....
i need to learn more about pocket pc wifi....
good luck with your 66...

Qtek 9090 keyboard

Hi!
I know there is a couple of topics, similar to this one.
But this time i would like to hear if any Qtek9090 (og similar model) owners, HAVENT had the problem with the keayboard slider getting loose.
Mine got loose after a week, I send to repairment, and they changed to whole slider.
now, a week after its loose again.
Is there anyone that havent had the problem? Is there qtek's out there that perfect?
Mine is still firmly sliding after 7 months
I even dropped it on a concrete floor , all kinds of damage but the slider is still perfect
ps : can I buy a replacement casing somewhere ?
I have exactly!!! the same experience as you do Paradroid...
:>
Well Mine is &/(), its loose, one of the screws is missing and I have gone to 7 shops to get a new styalist as the old one fell out never to be seen again due to wear it go loose as well.
When I pull my PDA out of my jeans, it comes out in two sections first the screen, followed by the Keyboard, I can't even get it out unless I am standing.
When I talk the keyboard justs drops down as if it wantes to say hello. Hey you can even see day light between the Keyboard and screen.
I think its a crap. Sorry My thoughts but happy for all of you that ended up with a usable model.
Thank you!
My point is to know if there at all is usable models, because then I will demand them to replace mine untill I have one that works.
I love the machine and couldnt live without it. But this is just to stupid. I dont want to send in my PDA in every 2 weeks, and then wait 3 weeks before getting it back, just because they have made crapy mechanism.
I paid almost 1200 USD for this toy!!

[Q] dead/stuck pixels, how common are they on the Defy??

Hi, I have my Defy for about a month and just now noticed 2 tiny stuck pixels of green/blue colour. They are actually visible only on black screen and in normal usage you can only find them if you know where they are, otherwise it only looks like a tiny particle of dust.
Since I only noticed it now it's too late for me to send it back
Have tried different software solutions and ran them over some nights, but nothing helped. So it seems they are permanent. I'm still on stock firwmare and havent flashed it yet.
It's sort of psychological thing... personally, I find it frustrating and it pisses me off because I know the problem is there and I have paid the full price for the phone to be perfect.
I was wondering how many of you experienced this and is there any chance that motorola would cover this problem under warrianty (in EU)?
My first Defy got a stuck pixel within the first week of me owning it. I phoned T-Mo and they sent me a replacement the next day. Before I did that though, I asked a T-Mo employee in one of their shops about it. He told me that if I couldn't get it sorted over the phone, to come back into the shop and they would help me get it replaced under warranty.
I don't really know how it all works but that was just my situation - hopefully it's of some use.
My defy that I just sold had two dead white pixels. One in the middle of the screen and one about the height of the volume rocker. Only visible on black screen though.

The repair, not really

Sent it off for repair because it had screen fitment problems out of the box (screen was loose but didn't ripple, no yellow spots), the casing was perfect and not damaged. When I got the device back from repair, screen was replaced and tightened, but it now ripples on normal touch, has 1 dead pixel, light bleed around the bezel (can be seen in the video, top part of the screen, also around capacitive touch buttons), yellow spot in lower right corner when the phone gets warm AND the casing was damaged in several places.
I'm sending this video to HTC and will demand either my money back or a new device, it is unlocked, but this cannot be caused by software, so they should accept the warranty. Video:
Did they tell you which repair center they sent it to?

My screen is like yours out of the box... They don't repair...

In my opinion this is the repair shop faults.
Either way this is unacceptable. Very sloppy work.
I am very curious how HTC will resolve this.
My last resort is to send my HOX or any other future devices back to their so called repair or service centers. Your major problems will be resolved but additional cosmetic problems will surface such as this gentleman's screen. My first and only experience is purchasing an EVO 3D gsm version from a local yahoo auctions seller in HK. I didnt want to nitpick but the screen had leaks of light when viewing in datkness and it wasnt aligned properly. So i thought what the heck..send it in for repair or servicing...got it back in a week with less light bleed but some of my capacitive lights werent lighting up completely. As if they never checked after other problems were resolved. I ended up selling it for a good 150 dollar loss since i am extremely picky with these screens. Just last week i got the HOX and the darn thing seems to be perfect from the factory but guess what..that small yellow spot pops up when the phone heys to 36 or 37 degrees... Much more annoying than a single dead pixel. I am having an EXCHANGE for another unit but i doubt they will be perfect. For some people stating they have no problems at all...they arent looking hard enough. There is always something imperfect with all the htc phones i have bought. Since the hd2. But whatever...their outter appearance are simply the best looking and i just couldnt pass it up.

@Tw1tchy I just know it was serviced by HTC Germany.
I think I'll get this one replaced, and when I get the replacement, I will just going to sell it and be done with this One X story, too much risk and I don't want to send my phone 1000 km from Croatia to Germany every time I find a problem.

My first HOX was like that, small yellow spot when the phone got hotter it was even worst, i send it in for a replacement and i got a truly perfect HOX no yellow spots, dead pixels, dust or whatever! Really happy with HTC right now!

or i'm just waiting JB to send it to repair again
Seriosly guys...what do you think they do with those opened ones? I guess they just sell it to those other not as picky as us customers eh? since they arent factory sealed like the Samsungs. I personally would never accept one that was opened up and fiddled around with. Just bad!

So, long story short.
I received my device which had screen flex and PUSHED the sevice senter to replace the LCD.
Got back the device today. The LCD Module (LCM) has been changed. But, they made some pinch on side of polycarbonate body, while replacing the LCD.
Also, the screen is more flexible in both left and right edges with loosely fixed screen on left center. Hope it becomes hard after some use and heat.
Just for information, i have replaced 3 devices and sent the fourth one to service center three times till now.
I have given up now & keeping the device. After owning HTC from HTC Hermes times, this is the first device i have seen this much quality control issues.
Earlier, I was confident enough to order HD2 and EVO3D from UK (Iam living in Dubai) when they release those.
Now, i lost that confidence with HTC. I still didn't unlock the device for the same reason. My first time with any HTC device without modding the ROM. HTC should be proud of themselves
I have light bleeding on my one x as well. Its quite annoying but you have to get used to it. I'm not risking sending my one away after I have already been without it for a month

Yellow spot on the screen

Started something like a week ago (don't remember precisely). It's not that big (like 0.8cm) and is visible only when there is a light background (when you're browsing for example) it's not that bad but is really annoing considering that I've bought it 5 moths ago. I read of similar problems on nexus 4 (which has the same screen that we have) , on Htc One x , on Iphone 4 /4s and Sony's xperias as well. Someone says that the problems is the poor manufacturing process of the LCD display (principally the glue between the LCD screen and the gorilla glass). I think i'm going to take it to assistance only that it takes a lot here in Italy (like 30 days, not considering we're in august). So I was hoping for an advice. Wait and see if the spot goes away or take it directly to assistance?

Screen problems

So I've been having some issues with my G3 and have been searching around with little luck. Does anyone else have these issues?
When I use my touchscreen, I can see distortion from the pressure placed onto the lcd screen. I'm not pressing hard on the screen at all.
Also, I've seen some people write about being able to see the digitizer in the background of their screens. Is this common on all G3's? It's very noticeable on mine and is really bothering me...
Also, this is my second G3. The first had a perfect screen (without noticeable digitizer), but had a VERY sensitive touchscreen (also viewable distortion from just normal swiping). My phone came from BestBuy and the only store with a white one in stock is 40 miles away from me. All the other BestBuy stores that are close to me all have black in stock. I know it sounds dumb, but are the problems I mentioned isolated to the white models only? So far both the white G3s I've had are having these problems...
Don't have either of those issues, but mine is a Best Buy purchased black version (AT&T)
Don't see how the color of the phone would have anything to do with this, doubt there is a difference in production. Good luck.

I owned a g3 for a month and my lcd distorted with even a light touch as well. I also messed with one at best buy and it had the same problem!! Shame LG, this phone just about pulled me away from my s5!
