So I slipped and fell with my phone in my pocket and now when I'm on my phone doing something with a white screen (ie. texting) I see a blue cloud across parts of the screen. Is there anyway to fix this?
PS - I have a tmo tp2.
Thanks!
Anyone have any advice on this? Thanks in advance..
Get a new screen, sorry to say it like that.
If your LCD is cracked it needs to be replaced.
Somethings obviously messed up with the LCD, friend pushed too hard on his screen and it made it splotchy like that.
Screen is not cracked. Just on parts of the screen the whites show blue instead. Is there anyway to fix this?
Ok here is a picture of my problem. It doesn't seem to affect use of the touch screen at all, however I do find it bothersome... Hopefully you guys can see the blue dots in the upper left of the picture and are able to tell me what the F it is!
Sounds like "stuck pixels" to me. For whatever reason, the blue pixels won't turn off. I think I remember seeing somewhere a program that attempts to fix it by rapidly turning the pixels on and off. Maybe someone knows the name, or you can google/bing it.
Surely more ppl have experienced this before!! Any help is appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!!!

I got a guy that specializes in fixing smart phones. I'll ask him about fixing the TP2 screen tomorrow.
If you can see any visual problems when the phone is off, like shading that corresponds to the cloudy part, then the screen is physically damaged.

Hi All,
I have a Tilt 2 and today I notice that I have a black stain on back of my screen. I first thought it was due to humidity since I am in mexico right now on vacation. But after playing around I figure out that looks like a burn pixels and also my touch screen fuctionality is not working any more. its like its froozen. I have tried to reset but its not helping.
I am thinking maybe this has happen due to some pressure on the phone during the flight i am not really sure. Do you think the LCD is bad? do I need to change the LCD or is there any other way to fix this. I see these items on ebay. do i need to buy both items?

I would appriciate any help
Thanks.
Update:
Looks like its not a dead pixel. some how the humidity has cause water to go behind the screen between the LCD and front cover. Any ideas how to get ride of it with out opening up the LCD? I tried blow dring but that has not help alot. The strange part is it goes a way after a while and touch screen starts to work but then it comes back again.
any ideas would be appriciated.
Thanks.
Hey guys,
I want to know, if you have such "flashlights" on the bottom of your screen, too.
Just on the bottom - on top of mine everything is allright.
I ask myself if this is a reason to swap the device due to garantee reasons.
Look at the picture and pls. vote.
edit: I have the flashlights permanent - even if the lights of the 3 capazitive buttons is off

That's light from the Capacitive button Backlights, you should only really see it once the screen just unlocks.
Not always, if it bothers you- Return it, that simple.
I have the lights permanent. Even if the 3 capazitive lights are off!

Well that's backlight bleed, just get it replaced.
I have it too
I spoke with an HTC Support Manager at their North American headquarters this morning and they are advising me that this is normal. They apparently designed the display to have these lights to make the viewing angles better and to make the display easier to see in direct light or sunlight.
It's a new technology, so I am told.....
I have the same issue, only noticed it recently. Not sure if it's enough to warrant getting it replaced. Do all people have this? Noticeable when there is colour (ore so on white) on the screen, not when on a black screen.
Dont have the "flashlights" on any color. not even on white.
Should get a replacement if it annoys you..
It's normal. You can see them all the way around the screen if you look hard enough. It's barely noticeable even at just the right angle. You can get it replaced but I wouldn't expect it to be much different. The people in this thread saying they don't have them probably just don't notice. It's a very subtle thing.
they vary between devices but they exist in one way or another
i don't find it hard to believe that these assist view angles

Hi guys
I hope everyone is well
A week or 2 ago i noticed a pink line down the right hand side of my screen
ALso the bottom of the screen was slightly pink although i could see the text.
Gradually over the last couple of weeks the pink at the bottom of the screen has nearly filled the whole screen. The bottom of the screen is now turning from pink to grey.
Obviously i believe this to be a screen/LED problem
I have looked on ebay and found screens with digitizers but I am not sure if this will do the job or it needs another part with it
can someone please point me in the right direction...preferably with links
thanks in advance

Hi mate, I recently changed the screen and digitizer on my phone. If it's just the screen thats broken then you only need a screen, however you need to be VERY careful when taking out the screen from the digitizer, as if you break the connector to the digitizer then you will need to buy a new one too! Search youtube for "bravo disassembly procedure" or something along those lines, it's the official htc video.
It's actually pretty straightforward to do, and you don't need to treat it as gently as nitro glycerine either, as long as you don't use too much excess force.
Thanks
Hi mate
thanks for the reply
I have seen those videos around and got one in my favourites already
By the sound of my problem do you think i will just need a screen and digitizer or will i need more

Hi guys
Anyone managed to have a look at this?
anyone
sorry to post again
anyone able to comment on this? please
Hey sorry mate.. Hmm if it wasn't the screen then it must be something else... I don't want to tell you what it is for you to aimlessly keep buying stuff, because it's just not worth it. If it wasn't the screen then it could be so many other things.
Hi guys, I don't quite now how to explain this, but I'll give it my best. I've had my g3 for almost two weeks now and I've started to notice very faint vertical lines on the screen when on a white background, I can see them right now while writing this. It also happens in the settings screen. I'm not certain if there's something wrong or if it's always been this way and I hadn't noticed. Has anyone else noticed this? I wouldn't even say the line have a colour, it's just an alternate of darkish and white lines. I could just be looking too close, but I'm not certain.
Also I have noticed a slight black blur when using knock code, like when you would touch an old lap top screen, although a lot fainter. It only happens in one little section of the screen, but I noticed it when using the white stock wallpaper. It only seems to happen when I tap for knock code and I have noticed it when I apply slight pressure to that area. I have been delicate with the touch screen since, but I don't believe I used much pressure in the first place.
Hope I explained it well enough. Anybody else noticed anything similar? Am I being paranoid and these things normal?
There is large discussion on the "lines." I see them too, but think it is a result of the resolution itself. Nobody can say/prove what it is AFAIK.
If I press real hard on the screen in certain spots, it seems like I can replicate the second thing you're talking about. If yours does it when just lightly tapping, I'd exchange it.

Hi,
Thanks for replying. I'm glad that the 'lines' aren't just in my imagination. Can you point me in the direction of the discussion on the lines?
I bought the phone online, but took into the store today to compare it to their demo model. It definitely doesn't have the same issue when I tap it. The salesperson wasn't sure what it was but she's going to send it in for repair/replacement. It sucks... now I'm going to have to wait till I get it back. The shop said they would have replaced it on the spot if I hadn't bought it online but from the store too.
Hopefully they get it back to me quick.
I hope no one else has this problem.
I think it's not the resolution itself, it's more about the software or kernel or something, LG implemented an oversharping thing which makes texts appear too sharp, but it's not only about texts, it's about the overall display! Notice when you scroll through LG Health page, you can see the lines moving, or changing in visibility, etc..
I have the same issue on my phone. There are very faint vertical lines most apparent on white and green colors and they seem to be rainbow colored. I have seen this issue with the at&t, t-mobile, and sprint versions of the G3 which my friends have.
It's not caused by the over sharpening effect because even after I flashed a fix for it, it still appears.
Almost as if it's like one of those 3d card/poster effects.
Hi guys,
is there any news on any fix on this?
I have the same problem. Should I RMA my phone?
Hey guys. Today I noticed with a shock that my screen gets blurry when I press it in a certain way. The best way to describe it is to use the example of tft computer screen. I mean when you use your finger and press kinda hard on the screen surface than somehow rings are expanding from the pressing point, like when there is a drop of water on a still water surface. It is weird because it is more in the lower part of my screen. Now my question: does anybody have similar issues or is my screen broken?
Thanks a lot for your help guys!
