Hi all! I know there're several topics about stuck pixels but my problem is a bit different.
Today I got this phone from a friend and now I've noticed there's a cluster of stuck pixels on the screen (only in black background) - very small dots (like dust) in green, blue and red colors.
Here's a photo of another One V with the same problem, I found it on the net, don't know if it's a common problem.
I've tried different repairing software without any success.
Otherwise screen is working properly and there aren't any functional problems, but these pixels are just irritating.
And I don't know if I continue using it in this condition, stuck pixels won't become more and more...
Anyone faced the same problem? I hope there's another solution except changing the screen.
That is a broken LCD. Needs repair.
Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.
Repair lcd

What kind of repair do you mean? Replace the whole screen or what?
give it to the htc care, they'll replace the display unit
I have no warranty, I bought it used as I said, so if I have to pay for screen replacing, this phone will become more expensive than a new one.
Could it get worse if I continue using it in this condition?
Dude open it ur self if u can or take it to there u can't do.anything externally off its hardware problem

hey all i am currently having a problem with me htc s621.
when my phone is on it randomly turns to a white screen after a 2 day period or so. and after a while of turning off phone/taking out battery/taking out sim card and doing this a lot it goes back to normal. im getting pretty mad and was wondering if i need to get my phone replaced or what.
any advice is helpfull. and the phone is not updated to 6.1 or anything like that. btw it all started to happen after i dropped my phone one time. i am not sure if that helps or not.
thanks in advance

The phone may be damaged. Is it a stock phone or has it be flashed with a rom?
it is purely stock no upgrades at all. today it did something new, it was white then 20 min later wen back to normal without me turning it off or anything. should i bring it in into warintee or anything i can do to help it?
I have seen simular situations before. It is possible that when you dropped it, the ribbon cable connecting the LCD to the board became dislodged and is only making a partial connection. Or the LCD is just plain broken and needs to be replaced. You can get a new LCD on ebay for around $30 USD and do it yourself or take it to a repair shop and have then look at it for you.
i believe i will take it into the store tommorow. get a professional statement and opinion to see what i should do. thanks alot guys

I recall reading some time back concering the cause of the white screen had something to do with the backlight time, try making some adjustments with the backlight. Also do a serious search for that old thread dealing with this problem..............!
You would probably need a new screen and the best option would be to replace it yourself because you could find a cheap one off ebay and then just youtube and you could find on how to install the new screen.
Hi!
I have a strange problem with one desire...
After changing the broken lcd screen, the display is very yellowish, everything witch was "white colour", is now yellow...
I have tested 4 lcd-s, changed the rom (multiple ROM-s), but same result...
Strange is even when i try to make color correction with Calibrator (calibrated-signed-42-Universal)... i can change red and green, but changing blue is not working to obtaining "white"...so it remain the same color with values (for blue) from 0 untill 1000.
Is there an another program to make color correction, or is a hardwere fault?
Any ideas?
Thanks
How exactly are you changing the "lcd"
There are two types of screen that the desire can use (depending on your model) amoLED (led!) or SLCD (super lcd). So unless you replace your screen with the correct replacement type for your specific handset your going to have strange issues.
Maybe you should take a very close look at your display, with a magnifying glass or a microscope and check if the blue sub-pixels work at all. It seems as if they don't work and you get amber colors.
I have received the phone with broken display, after power on, it was dark screen no display...so obviously i changed the lcd with the same model, wich is a Samsung (AMOLED i think), P/N: 60H00287-00.
I'm pretty sure it's the correct type of display if anything is being displayed. The problem might be the connection between the mainboard and the screen. Perhaps you've accidentally damaged it when changing the screen? Maybe you should post some pictures of your assembly showing the connection. That might let someone see the problem and suggest a solution.
if you need to understand better the problem i can upload some photos of the Desire...
The assembly is correct, i checked it, i think it`s a micro crack on the mainboard, suffered during the shock, so i will resolder the contacts... i will keep u updated...
meanwhile, i wait other opinions also..
I have found the problem...It was the filter near the lcd connctor...they are 3 filters...for each color...RGB...so after resoldering all of them, and 6 hours of work...it`s working...

I have the same problem as you, is it possible to post instruction and a picture .
I would like to fix the problem and don't know how.
Best Regards
I have 2 desires, 1 motherboard water damaged, but screen is ok and says amoled on the box, it turns on but does some weird and strange things but screen is good,
when i say water damage a bit of condinsation not flooded,
The second one has a damaged screen and digitiser again turns on but screen black and white, on the box for that one also says amoled
I all i have done is swapped motherboard over to make one good desire but i get the blank screen with working buttons and the buzz just as if its been flashed with the wrong rom as the slcd brick, it has the exact same symptoms, so with the help of some fantastic threads here I have a working goldcard, downgraded with teppics tool used unrevoked3 and flashed a couple of correct roms and still nothing, I have swapped motherboards back an forth to make sure i haven;t bricked or damaged anything and they contnue to be the same as before i started, I've swapped ribbons and other bits of hardware around and still the same.
can anyone give me any light or help please its been very frustrating, i also have spent an eternity with a magnifying glass to see if any plugs/ conectors have any problems, still looks like a software issue but i think i have done everything, I have also been able to enable usb debuuging with out the screen, (that was fun lol)
Shoulda just sent it back to HTC
in hindsight i wish i had trying to save myself a few pennys that i haven't got at the moment and with 2 sitting here with different problems i thought to get a good one out of the 2 and pass the other onto some one for spares
the box i'm using the motherboard from hasn't the imei number on it so it might not be the right box, so it possible the motherboard i'm using is from an slcd phone, would there be a problem using an slcd motherboard into an amoled screened phone even tho i've done all the above, and now running RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed ?
hope your following me
can anyone help me get rid of these spots. i dont know how they appeared. 3 days ago my mobile was switched off. when i switched it on i found these spot. they r green,yellow and black in colour. whenever i switch off my mobile for like 7-8 hours these spot becomes lighter in colour but after using for sometimes the colours get darker? can someone tell me are these dead pixel or stuck pixel?? and is there any way to remove them??
It is something happen wi th you screen and it happen when some hard wad put on screen. You need to change your screen,but any cheap from amazon.

Thanks for the reply. So do i have to change the lcd only? Or the digitizer as well? Bcz touch screen is working as it should.

Before changing the screen you can try with some applications.
On the play store there are some applications meant to resolve this kind of issues, altought thery're useful when the pixel are struck on one color (red, green or blue): search for applications like pixel fixer and such.
A similar problem occoured to me (on a different device) and I improved the situation with this kind of app, but in the end I had to send back the device to HTC (my stain was four time bigger compared to your) which repaired the screen for free (the device was still under warranty)

That burn in is really bad. It's got to be a problem with your screen, and not common to all G4s or we'd be seeing others complaining by now.
I've seen phones that bad in stores, but their screens are on all the time. How much screen time have you had with Opera running?
Good thing the provider is replacing it!

hmm not that long troug. if i use opera a while not it disappears almost completely.
use it agian 2 minutes. its bck
and restarting my phone does not help.
removing opera does also not help.
if i got my new phone no opera anymore.
I just can't believe that's from Opera alone. There had to be a problem with the LCD in your phone.
I understand if you don't want to risk it by using Opera anymore but I don't think it'll happen with your new phone.

Lcd on mobile phones normally never get burnins, it's an amoled thingy (samsung phones) and it's an important reason I wont get a note 4 but a G4, so I really hope it was a single defective screen.
Did you try one of the screen retention fix app?
Did you try a factory reset? Call me crazy but it's not normal that a screen burnin doesn't affect white pixels, and it shouldn't do a green stuff, it could be a crazy bug

That's not "backlight leak" or "light bleed" as it's generally called. It's a bad LCD panel.
FYI This is how light bleed on the G4 can look like (It's mine).
I have a new device. So it's solved. But I see more people getting problems with the screen.
That's more likely to be just image retention and not an actual burn in.
Burn in = actual damage since the material gets burnt out than the rest of the other materials in the screen.
Image Retention = the liquid crystals on the LCD haven't fully returned to their original state for the meantime only.
A burn in commonly happens on crt, plasma, oled screens. For the reason that these technologies "burn" a specific material on their screen to produce output. LCD screens like IPS are very less likely to have burn ins but image retention is always possible but not permanent.

So is image retention common, because I've never had this problem until I got the G4 which is my first flagship: every other phone I've had was a budget and never had a problem like this.
I've never had image retention or burn in on any of my LCD phones but have had it on all my OLED/AMOLED phones.

LG used this "Quantum Display" of theirs (A modified type of IPS LCD) which had a different arrangement of pixels and whatnots which would have likely been the reason why image retention was much more common on theirs than other manufacturers' IPS displays, but in return.. the color gamut of their display actually expanded in range and also provided less energy consumption.
Same here LG G4 "screen burnes" all the time!!! - previous screens stay faded over current screens, just like on my old plasma TV... WTF???
I don't know what is screenburn but sometimes I see vertical narrow black stripes popping for a second in the same place, any thoughts what this can be? Is that a faulty display or some software bug, anyone had this issue?
What did other people who had this issue?
Now I'm also having it. Own the phone since ~11month. I recognized it 2 weeks ago, researching the problem. Before I though it would be a graphic error.
Have the plan to write LG about my issue. But have rooted the phone the official way. I must lookt at the LG root condition, I think this is still covered by waranty even with root because of HW issue not caused by root.
BR
I had a image retention issues on my screen (few months ago came from service for bootlooping) AND I have bootloader officially unlocked. And they still changed my display. But I live in Finland EU and we have this mandatory 2 years warranty regardless of rooting the device. Only if they can proof that rooting caused the device to broke then its not covered by this mandatory manufacturer independant warranty.
But image retention or bootlooping aint such a case and they replaced my MB and now my screen.
It just shows how **** the G4 is in case of build quality, I have experienced screenburn and I'm after a bootloop issue as well, so glad my OnePlus 3 is coming at Monday. G4 has a great development and thats why I love it I wouldn't buy ever again.
