Screen problems

I wonder if anyone can help. I did search the site but couldn't find anyone with similar problems.
The problem is the screen colours are 'messed up' and it rarely displays the screen correctly. I know its a problem like a lose or damaged connection inside the phone but I want to know if it will get fixed out of warranty? If so where do I start?
If the warranty is useless then I will crack the phone open and have a look myself, but I didn't want to open it if HTC will fix it.
Its an O2 XDA IIs by the way with the latest O2 software.
Here is a pic:

It doesn't look too bad in that pic, but it gets worse and sometimes fades to white.
Thanks

F355,
Akthough I'm no specialist, it remonds me a problem I had with a graphic card a while ago. It could well be that the graphic chip on the main board is giving way.
If such is the case and the device is still under warranty, u know what to do!

Thats the problem I think its out of warranty. I remember I had a Nokia 8210 about 4 years ago and they fixed that even out of warranty, just wondering if HTC are as good customer service wise. Its probably wear and tear but surely it should be designed to last. My XDA I is much better quality, shame its so big, slow and has no features.

Well I contacted O2 data support and they said that O2 XDAs come with 2 years warranty (the phone is 1yr 1m old) so they are sending a pre-paid envelope and hopefully fixing it.
The only problem is because its 'screen damage' they might not fix it even in warranty and I will have to pay £17 handling fee. :roll:

$100 if someone can put WM6 on this phone

I am looking for a total guru to help me put WM6 on this phone, it is not made by HTC. I would pay even more if the WM6 had my own splash images on it. This is not a hobby thing and I have real money to pay for someone who can help me out, it would not be a one time thing either I would have other things to do down the road. [email protected] if your interested or reply here. You can be anywhere, Russia to China. I am in USA.

Model?????

$300 n ill put that on there for ya

Your device description is incredibly vague. Are we supposed to guess what it is and hope it works?
--James

Oh man, isn't this a device made in China? I saw similar devices here in China. But surprisingly the price of the device is little more than 100$. Besides the specs are somewhat far from promising. I prefer to spend another 100$ to buy one of these devices for which WM6 is available in one way or the other: xda stealth, Imate pdal, imate jaq3. Just a suggestion and not meant to disappoint you.

word, you may want to just upgrade

That phone is not running a Window OS in the first place.

It does come with WM5 for PPC. I saw totally similar devices only with different brandings. Also they are cheaper than other known WM devices. Have no idea if those devices are licensed by M$ or just a product of reverse-engineering.

that is a chinese phone
and no windows ce 4 it at all
they fake mobiles as if they are windows based and they write windows mobile on their covers
but for truth they r not
there won t be a wm6 for it at all

more screenshots here: http://www.m8cool.com/mobile/1/632/4113.html
the price is 1420 RMB, so it is less than 200$. i think it really is a WM device.
and a different one with price about 120$: http://auction1.taobao.com/auction/...88c75d2e6f9cf9f8e.jhtml?from_item_detail=true
such devices have popped up suddenly in the market in bulk and i wonder whether it is due to the popularity of WM or to the ability of the reverse engineers.

microsoft my phone should do it

Sorry to hear that man, as I feel you as I too had my HD2 stolen just last month. If you are in USA there is nothing you can do as no GSM carrier supports IMEI blocking, they can but they don't. In theory they can view the phone when its online as when when makes new connect with stolen phone with diff simcard it will be registred. But simply they don't care for it unless Big Brother steps in you know or used in emergency to locate someone.
Normally there are GPS service which can make the device send the owner its coordinates also giving remote capabilities like if nearby SMSing it will provide audiable alert or by backing the data and syncing online and locking it. For it to work one must have it installed before this takes place.
When I had my HD2 stolen I just finished flashing new rom and GF called so we went to the bar and didn't have time to install my software packages. I checked Craigslist/eBay couldn't find it. I was very ticked of as I paid 750 for HD2 + 200 or so on addon accessories. The most important thing was the data on the device contacts till this day I don't have they are gone unless they contact me as I only recovered parietal though recent audit call logs.
I know the feeling my whole world ended lol I became totally handicapped without my device, it makes you think hard how depended we become. I use it for everything and showed it off as I had very good reason as I extremely modified it beyond extreme with my own tweaks and things. I even left the prick SMS saying I would pay more than its worth if kid returns it, but he is not dumb he knew WTF would happen to him if he shows up.

Person, i don't understand you, you buy a phone which has the capability to bake cookies,make coffie,wash dishes but is limited by the manufacturer and/or network, its like buying a sports car that has been limited to 30 mph, the first thing you should do to is is remove the limiter.

Either me or the op is really thick.

I think I'll close this as it has the potential to go into meltdown

[Q] VZ Navigator on LG Spectrum?

I'm considering buying the phone because i loved the phone's light weight and crisp display. But, a reviewer(for pocketnow) said that the VZ Navigator always crashes and makes the phone almost unusable until he reboot it. So, I wanna ask if this problem occurs in every Lg Spectrums...

So just uninstall VZ Navigator? I mean, I don't know why all these carriers slap their own navigation on top of the G-Maps one.

Well.... Maybe I should.
But I don't like installing a custom launcher or jailbreaking the phone.
I received an message from a reviewer works for Wirefly, saying that his LG runs VZ navigator smoothly. So, maybe that's just his issue.

I don't mean any offense by this at all, but if you're not going to root (jailbreak) your phone, you're pretty much on the wrong forum. That's all we do around here.

I have a reason for that;
after i use the phone for a month, i will bring this back to korea, where LG provides excellent customer service. But they don't take care of handsets bricked by rooting. So, I want to root it at least 1 years after I bought the phone.

Before you do anything to your phone, would you please make a screenshot of Settings -> About phone (scroll to the bottom)
I'd like to make sure our unbricked phones have the same data there.
Screenshot can be taken by pressing at the same time power button and home button, the images stored in /sdcard/Captured Images/
(first time I see a linux with spaces in the filenames..go figure)
