Sorry to say that but i have thrown my mobile so many time on the floor and i was wondering why nothing happened for the screen. . But from yesterday onwards i am getting a horizontal black line on my screen. :'( . I think i may have to replace the screen. Does anybody experianced this before?? . How much it may cost??
How big is that black line?
Also, are you able to use the portion occupied by the black line. I mean is the touch screen working? If yes then you just need to change the screen, which is for some 1000 rupees. If touch screen is not working, you need to change the whole pannel, which famn costly. There was person with the same prob. Check his thread in the general section

Yah touch screen is working . it is across the screen with around 1 px width.
this happens to all electronic devices with a screen.
with damage and/or time it will get a line of vertical or horizontal pixels not working.
happened to my psp to....(a pink line)
nothing much u can do. either wait a few months till u get a new phone or pay a bit and fix it. phones arnt sturdy as they used to be. remember the first few black and white nokia phones? they were indestructable! they could go for more than 5 years!
but now most phones stay alive for 2 years till they start showing their age.
but i guess changing the display wouldnt cost too much either.
but i would suggest waiting a few months for a new phone. our phone is already outdated and i think in about 6 months to 1 year before even deving stops...
hit tks if i helped!
i had the same issue with my cell...i went to d samsung service center as my cell was still in warranty...i got it repaired for free..

black band may appear, and because of the impact (fall, pressure), or many other reasons that there is not a warranty case

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.

So, some One X owners got thoose yellow spots, at some devices they disapear after some time, for you, too? If yes please tell us how long it takes for you.
I started with 2 spots and now, 5 days and around 10hr screen time later, one has disappeared. The other one is still visible so I'm thinking of returning the phone for a new One X
Just noticed that min yellow spot on the bottom (in place of the whole dock bar) starts to disapear. Seems really to be the glue (like Organofunctional Silane Z-6011) on iPhones. I will watch and reprot if it totaly goes away
I had one in the top left corner. After 10hours or so it's completely gone

I had a couple of yellow spots on my phone from day one (had it a few days now), most are not noticeable anymore (bottom right of the screen for example). However the one on the bottom left doesnt seam to be fading at all to me.

Is this normal and should it still fade or do you guys think I should be asking three for a replacement (want to do it in the 14 days returns policy if I have to do it to make things simple).
(I've emailed three the pictures asking them about getting it replaced).

Get it replaced mate, I've got two yellow,more like swipe marks than spots, on the bottom right of my screen as I look at it and they are really obvious. I've rang o2 and I'm getting a doorstep exchange on Tuesday,which will be a week to the day I got the phone, and there is no sign of them fading. I ordered online hence the exchange. It's pot luck for me whether I get one without the yellow spots but I'll keep exchanging until I do coz I love the phone otherwise.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
yup its the same for me I will just pester them and keep asking for exchanges until I get a good one. I was hoping it would fade and its been really annoying because I want to unlock the bootloader etc but didnt until they faded just incase. As I bought online it should be ok to swap hopefully, im wondering if they will let me take it to a store as then I can stay in the shop until they find a good one.

O2 told me I couldn't do that because I didn't purchase it from the shop,but it won't do any harm to try.

I have a yellow spot on the bottom left. After 1 day's use it's already significantly less obvious.
I wouldn't bother exchanging handsets until at least a week or so, as the chances are the spots go away on their own.
I hope they do just fade away!
I've had this one since thursday day, and used it a lot since I got it the others on the screen faded but this hasnt changed at all.
Mine are almost completely gone after only a few hours. I had a really bad one in the bottom left, and then another in the bottom right and top right.
I may have sped up the process by having the backlight on 100% for a while when I was doing screen tests.
I can just about see when the brightest one was now, but I have to be looking for it, on a uniform white screen. Otherwise they have gone.

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

Hello , so I bought today a new Nexus 7 32GB Wifi Only , after i played with it a bit i decided to check for dead pixels , and have found one , its located on the navigation bar , so when in portrait you can't see it , but in landscape you do notice it right next to the edge of the screen .
Now i am not sure what to do , even if I am able to get a replacement unit nobody can guaranty that it will be perfect , for all I know I can get a device with a dead pixel in the middle of the screen and not on the side where its less noticeable ..
Does any one have a word of advice? I have read about a lot of people replacing nexus's one by one and still can't get a "perfect' device.
BTW, its even manufactured in September , so its not some old defective butch i guess .

If it doesn't have light bleed or any other issues, my advice is don't replace it.
My 1st Nexus 7 2013 32GB had 1 dead pixel near the side. After advice from this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387900) I replaced it, again and again. I'm on my 5th unit now, and two months wasted, I have still not seen a perfect unit. Infact my current unit has a dead pixel and major light bleed (none of the other units had light bleed). Now, the store won't accept my returns and I'm stuck with it. I WISH I kept the 1st nexus, had 2 extra months enjoying it, instead of repeated re-visits to the store, waiting for more stock, and discovering it's worse than before.
I think the vast majority of people who have said their unit is perfect are simply unable to notice a dead pixel (they are tiny). I've been through 5 and they all suffered from dead pixels. Unlucky or not, 5 out of 5 with bad pixels is terrible statistics. My guess is 1 out of 10 is perfect.
Its really sucks ... The pixels are so small but yet in landscape you do notice it on backgrounds like white and light gray ... When portrait the navigation bar covers it so its not that bad I guess ...
The delivery guy should come tomorrow afternoon so maybe I will call in the morning to cancel , and just stay with my current device ..

Up to you, many people are saying their unit is perfect, so maybe I just have terrible luck. I tell ya, you won't be happy if you get one that suffers from light bleed.
I'd return this again if I could, but Future Shop has basically told me to jump in a lake after I returned so many units for dead pixels.
The sad thing that this are latest batches , new stock that came to the store just yesterday .. I would get if there was poor q/c on the first units , but things like that should be fixed within weeks , poor q/c after 4 months of production is a complete joke ...
To be honest this is my first Asus product , when I buy computer parts I always go for Gigabyte and others , Asus products are always overpriced , which is funny as their q/c is so bad .
@Overon
I felt that the black dot was on top of the screen and not part of the screen, so i turned on the flashlight on my phone ,looked at the display when off and its a dark particle between the display and glass , now i think i will just keep it and live with this dust under the glass .
I am sure its better then having a real hardware problem.. annoying yes, but as you can relate - could be much worse.
Well, I got my Nexus 7 back .. the said they didn't found anything with it , so the only factory restored it and send me back ..when I turned it on I saw that they didn't restore it at all, interesting thing i notice a minor light bleed on the top and bottom of the screen , which i don't remember being there before...
Today i noticed a red small red spot on a black background ... so ASUS what's next with your quality ?
Hi, I got this OnePlus 3, it had a very slight pink tint in right half and no tint on left (on white screen) so I got it replaced. Now the replacement is even worse,bottom and right side is much more pink than before, only top left side is fine, even on grey, I can see the top left portion is more bright than rest. What to do guys, I'm afraid third replacement will be even worse, I previously owned Nexus 6 and it had only pink tint in low brightness not this kind of uneven hue. Please suggest something.
Well, there's nothing you can do except replacing it ...
It can't be worse every time, you'll run out of bad luck eventually ?

They may not replace the phone. But they should change the screen again.
Go to the one plus service center.. the ones they own and manage.. not the ones outsourced.
Btw, I have a similar issue.. on specific greys, the left side (about half a inch) seems brighter than the right side. Only on greys. All other Colors are just fine.
I took it to the non-company owned service center, the guy there couldn't really tell the difference as much as I noticed, but he agreed that he can try changing the screen. Though I haven't really gone that route yet since the phone is less than a month old. Will wait for some time and see. The color variation is fairly minor and not many people I have shown it to have been able to tell the difference.
