Hi there
I used to be a proud owner of HD2 but decided to get Desire. I bought one with cracked screen on ebay. Got it replaced but the colours look more yellowish and distorted. I've noticed that when I'm browsing the websites screen changing its background from yellow to white. So I know it's able to reproduce white. Anyone had the same problem ?
Hi,
I have a HTC Desire Z, one day I pulled it out of my pocket and the screen was black with white lines. After reading that it was most likely a faulty LCD, I purchased a replacement from ebay. I installed it following the instructions in this video
watch?v=C0LJnqTlBVQ
After installing it the screen remains black. I can hear the start up music playing but the screen is black, no white lines like before. I even tried reinstalling the original lcd and the same thing, no white lines. Also after starting the phone up the front seems very warm.
Could my replacement lcd also be faulty or does the problem lie elsewhere?
Thanks in Advance
Ok, I took it apart again just to double check the lcd ribbon. It was on good, however I took it off and put it on again and now the screen works!
However the brightness is set to the lowest and even if I change it to the high setting it remains the same. Also the automatic change doesn't work either. Any Ideas?
Hi,
I unpacked my new HTC One X grey yesterday and quickly noticed a little dodgy pixel down at the bottom left corner. It isn't a dead pixel, but it doesn't seem to be a stuck pixel either.
What I noticed was that when using an app which has the little black menu bar down the bottom one pixel was always shining white.
But when I used the 'Colours Dead Pixel Detect and Fix It' app I discovered that this little pixel can be any colour, including black -- but that it just doesn't take the colour its supposed to - the detect and fix app has a black menu bar down the bottom so the pixel should always be black, but the pixel takes on the colour which is flashing on the rest of the screen. When the screen is blue the pixel is blue, when the screen is white the pixel is white, when the screen is black the pixel is black. But it should be black all the time with that app.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem is? Is it a software problem? I tried restarting the phone with no luck.
Thanks!

get a replacement, it's a hardware problem properly.
I also have one pixel like this.. thought about replacing the phone but my unit doesn't have other problems so i decided to live with it for now.. gonna send it to repair some day.

if its only a pixel i wouldnt worry about it, your eyes and brain will get used to it, however if you can return it still then go return it otherwise if you are out of return period then just keep it if everything else ok
thanks
What do you think it is though? So I can tell them when I call to have it replaced. It's not a dead pixel as they're just dark, and stuck pixels are just a single colour... ?
Thanks!
white pixel? visible at bright area and angles?
probably hot pixel
It's not just white though - it seems to take on the colour of whatever is brightest near it - so if the bulk of the screen is red then it's red, if the bulk of the screen is green then it's green. But if the rest of the screen is black then it's black. If it were a hot pixel wouldn't it always be white even if the bulk of the screen were black?
Thanks!

yup this is what im talking about, i returned my second HOX for this reason
its either a hot pixel or spec of dust under the glass
I've left it flashing with that stuck pixel fixing app in the probably vain hope that it will work - really don't want to have to wait for a replacement!

sorry bro don't bother pixel fixer wont help with it
its not a dead pixel
had the same and returned phone. for me, the pixel was always black.
where exactly was it located at yours? mine was in the left corner as well. more exactly: when you are in the homescreen and have the google play icon in the down left corner, the pixel was in the word "play" under the icon.
Mine's in the black menu bar at the bottom - on the home screen just to the right of the green mouthpiece on the telephone icon.

It doesn't sound like a faulty pixel in the typical sense, more the pixel connection has become coupled to another one, sort of a short circuit somewhere. This could be a fault in the LCD screen, the ribbon connection, or the LSI driving the display.
Either way just call it a dead pixel, as long as you describe how they will see it so they confirm it isn't right it shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks guys, much appreciated. They're sending a replacement on Tuesday. let's hope this one is flawless!
I got the Tab S4 a week ago and have been impressed with everything about it - screen, camera, excellent tablet.
Anyway - I am at work today and turned on the tablet only to find a Bright Green line exactly halfway down the screen (in portrait view) can't get rid of it -
I haven't dropped the tablet or treated it roughly or done anything could have caused this. I put on a glass screen protector yesterday - but didn't even have to push hard on the screen to get rid of bubbles or anything. It was an easy install - and the screen looked great. BUT this morning - with a bright green line thru the screen - well, it doesn't look so great any more.
Taking it back to Best buy today - just wondered if any one else had a similar problem?
EDIT -I was going to get a screen shot of the Green Line (if I could) and when I powered the tablet back on the Green light flickered and then went away. So now there is no green line there. = turned on again - and green line is back.
one other think I noticed - when the green line went a way, I noticed there was a SINGLE very small red pixel in the middle of the screen - when the green line went away, the red pixel was present - a tiny little dot of red - but when the green line came back - the red pixel went away. (by the way - the red pixel is in a different location of the screen than the green line.
This is a known problem with amoled screens. You've got a dud. Get a replacement. Even the iPhone X had some reports of it
Line on screen
I have the Galaxy tab S4 also and I have the line halfway down the screen too. I have to send it to Samsung to get fixed. I took such great care of it. I even put the rubber tpu case on with gloves to avoid leaving finger prints on the gorgeous glass back. This sucks. The LTE version is like 800 bux!
Yeah, sounds like you got a faulty unit. Just take it back to the retailer for a replacement or take it into the Samsung Service Center for repairs.
Hello, today I replaced a broken lcd in my Redmi 7, my problem is that before replacement, I could see something on the broken screen (red, green and blue lines), and now after I replaced it the new screen shows nothing, even the backlight doesn't work. The phone boots normally, and even the digitizer works, but the screen is black. Oh, and also now the old screen doesn't show anything. What could be the matter of it? Please, any help would be appreciated.
