Hi all, hoping someone could help me. Hot a new desire yesterday and have noticed when no a black screen these is a faint light in the top right corner. You can't see it when the screen is light though.
Is this faint light a problem or will it be ok?
Cheers all

Not sure how common this is but I have the same problem and have heard about it before. I was thinking of returning the Desire for a different one but if it is a common problem then I won't bother.
Silly suggestion, it doesnt happen when your notification led is on does it?
As that would produce a slight glow from underneath the screen.
I have the faint light in the top corner even when the led is off.
Anyone hot any other ideas what it could be?
Cheers

Is this while the screen if off?
Looked on my Desire - can't see any other light source?
Any update on the uper right corner issue, I have same problem and even went back to store to change the device, but the new one had same issue. Dont know if its only my bad luck or what.
Its plain backlight bleeding, could be possibly solved by some ghetto disassembly and sharpie, but I wont sacrifice my warranty to fix something that doesn't bother me (and of course it's a feature/bug of SLCD screened Desires)
So you think i bought desire with slcd not the amoled one. Didnt know slcd desires are already on the market.
Hmmm, I have this issue as well, only really shows up on a dark blank screen, so not to much of an issue in day to day use.....Looks from all the posts that this is a "feature" of the SLCD screens that HTC are using......;o)
Substituted mine today in warranty...no differences, the same problem on the new one.
Thanks htc...good work...
Same story here. Bought mine (SLCD) about week ago and this screen "feature" was there from the very beginning. I was thinking about to return it, but I went through your posts guys and looks like this is a common problem...

Hi,
I bought a Desire few deys ago and unfortunately it has slcd screen.I have noticed with screen checker that on black screen there is back light bleeding on the top right corner and on the left side as well. is this normal? are there any other people with the same bleeding issues?It is very annoying,i thought for this money i get a good phone...
The bleeding is similar like on the How to know if your HTC Desire have Super-LCD screen? on youtube at 50 sec(sry i can't send url)
and i also attached a picture.
Can i exchenge it?Is it faulty or normal?
Thx for the answers!
I downloaded a display testing app, and didn't see this problem at all. I went into a completely dark interior room and ran it again, and could barley see a tiny bit of this in the upper right corner. Since I haven't noticed it once in actual use, even at night, I'm not going to worry about it. However yours, as shown in your photo, is much worse than mine. I am uncertain how the warranty folks would feel about it, but it's your call whether to try returning it. Does it bother you when using the phone?
Hi,
If i'm using it nightime i can see proper bleeding on the right and left side as well if the background is black otherwise it is ok.Daytime i can see only bleeding on the top right corner with black background, but i think it shouldn't be like that, that's why i need info from other people who has Desire with slcd screen. As you wrote you did not realised the bleeding only after i metioned it.
I am waiting for more info, after i can make a decision to take back the handset or it is normal.
Thx
Hi guys,
please share with me your feedbacks if you have SLCD screen. I am very confused now, that this problem is common or only my screen is faulty? Because if it is only for me I have to exchange the phone.
Thanks
Hi,
If it is really looking like on this photo... i dont need a slcd screen to tell you that this is not acceptable... return the phone.

I agree with this. If my Desire looked like that - it would definitely be going back to the seller.
As to test on my phone - I can't as I have a AOMELD version of the phone. However, I too, don't need to see an SLCD to know the above is simply not acceptable.
I have the SLCD screeen. I have the exact black light bleeding on my screen also .
If all the SLCDs are ike this ,a replacement phone also will be similar .So no point in returing .Also there is no return possible in INDIA . .
I'm sure this is normal for LCD screens, there is a YouTube video comparing an AMOLED N1 to an SLCD N1 and there's a lot of backlight bleed on the SLCD...
Hi
thanks for the answers.So no point to exchange it, this thing is normal if you have slcd screen...Very strange and annoying.I thought this handset is almost perfect, i am going to sell it now.
thanks
Looks like Samsung's decision not to supply the AMOLED screens to 3rd parties is going to be the downfall of the Desire...
Hi! I just got a HTC Desire (SLCD) and have the same problems with the backlight bleeding (in the top right corner and in the left side but more at the middle point). You concluded it is a normal issue, but however there is people saying they don't have the problem in their SLCD Desires... Perhaps it would be worth trying to exchange it? what do you think? is out there more people with no bleeding SLCD Desires?
SLCD
i have an SLCD but no bleeding that i have noticed mine is 4 days old so maybe they fixed something definitely return it
im so glad ive got an amoled desire in all my previous htc phones with lcd screens, i neva had any bleeding like that so i'd take it back and get a replacement
Hi,
I bought a TELUS htc desire with the new SLCD screen thing. I have a yellow stain/tint at the bottom of the screen, but futureshop (where I bought it) says that all of them have that problem and as I already exchanged one phone once because of dead pixels, they just want to give me a new phone that isn't HTC. So, I was wondering if this is really a problem and you guys just accept it and it doesn't bother you much.
My stain is about 1 cm from the bottom of the screen, and not really apparent on darker backgrounds, but as soon as it turns out to be white or gray, it's clearly visible. On blue, the screen turns out green.
I am not sure what I am supposed to do, I like this phone a lot and the Htc sense...they said i could have a TELUS samsung fascinate with Android 2.1 (2.2 will be updated early 2011)...
Thanks
is your stain growing?
i noticed a brown/yellow stain in the left bottom corner a couple of weeks ago, starting with the size you mentioned. now the stain is atleast 4 times bigger and still growing.
wasnt there something like this on the new iphones when they came out. something about the glue used to bond the screens coming away??
Hi there,
I am an owner of MIUI rooted HTC Desire (GSM), installed new radio too. I had no problems so far. But in last few days I have noticed strange things happaning with device's display. There is some kind of strange pink illuminance when screen is displaying totally full screen black colour. This weird problem slightly shows up also on another dark colours. Here is some pictures describing the problem:
(click on image to make it bigger)
Maybe somebody has experienced something similiar? Actually I am very frustrating seeing that, looks like "Me - gusta" face, haha. But if seriously, then I am afraid about device's condition.
It looks to me as if you have pressed too hard at some point
and damaged the screen
Well, it might be. How do you think guys is it repairable by guarantee?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Yeah I was just gonna say that's not a symbol mate you just screwed the screen.. how hard did you press that thing?? I've quite literally smashed my Desire's screen and got nothing (maybe AMOLED is tougher )
also highly doubt warranty will cover since you did it.
Hello, I have searched the forum for someone with a similar problem to mine but I cant find any info anywhere.
I cracked my screen by throwing my phone at a radiator It still worked and was nice and bright with cracked screen.
I have now installed two screen's off ebay from diffrent suppliers which are dull and pinkish in colour when the phone is turned on. I have tried to turn up the brightness but it has no affect on the screen.
Can anyone please help or come across this before. Surely I have not had two bad screens?
regards
Nick
I have a similar problem but it is greenish hit on the screen... I presume it is quality of screens, i have 2 screens replaced on both my desires and from 2 different seller, one is darker and pinkish than original one and second one is even darker and going to greenisch when black screen is on... Both desires slcd... hope this will help you

It is far to dark to use. I think its just these cheap chinese screens that aint up to the job. Going to try and find a propper htc one.
Did you originally have an AMOLED and these are LCD?
Hi, just wondering if anyone has this problem. On the white screen as well as camera, a yellow stain has appeared on the top, like a coffee stain on a page. Can't take a screen shot because it only appears on the screen. If pressed, it disappears for a moment and comes back. It's not as clear as before but still there. Most likely a hardware problem but wondering if it's possible to fix. Cheers.
probably not fixable by any software means mate,if its still under warranty, get screen replaced. its common thing with one x, along with speaker problems, creaking sounds etc.. what can you do, nothing is perfect
Been lucky til now. Thought of holding out for sense 5 but guess it's time to get the one. Had this phone for a year now.
