Hi everyone!
I am obliged to change my screen since I spilt pure alcohol that caused damage on the screen of my HOX.
A good friend suggested local(in my town) repair guy (tested with excellent results for many years).
Not beeing present my friend told him my problem and he replied that if indeed the screen should be replaced he has to examine the phone to make sure he orders the exact same as "this device has come up with many different screen with minor changes".
Are there different versions of the HOX screen?
I never heard anything about this so I am wondering if you guys do........
Odp: How many versions of hox screen are?
It could be true. Some people have problem with yellow tint on the screen, some with a blue one and some with screen working as it should. So it could be that there are some variants of screen in hox

AW: How many versions of hox screen are?
Definitely different screens!
I got about 5 HOX and there are ones with a really great white display and ones with yellowish screens. After a software update the tried to fix this and depending from the screen used the calibration of the colors changes but there are definetly a minimum of 2 screens.
You can search this forum, it was discussed about a year ago.

As far as I know, there are 2 versions. A warm and a cold version. It has nothing to do with the temperature, but the way the colours are displayed. Both are great quality screens. The difference is not that big.

2 manufacturers actually. Sharp which is the better display with a more balanced blue display and Sony with the slightly yellow displays.
There's three o' 'em.
Green n yellow flex > Sony
Yellow flex > AUO
Green flex > Sharp

Hello,
I have a HTC One X, and I realized recently that my screen (the entire screen) was yellowish. I compare it with the X One of my friends, their screens is white (so white that looks like being blue).
Why do my colors are, overall, yellow rather than white?
I've done the updates, I have the original theme, and brightness at maximum.
Do you have the same problem as me?
Should I bring him back in the store?
I suggest you have it replaced immediately.
The original unit that was given to me had that yellowish tint, I think its a screen burn? or a factory defect.
Had the shop replaced it immediately.
Your screen should not be yellow. It definitely looks like the yellow spot issue but in my experience they do not go away. definitely get it replaced or send it to HTC for repair if they can't replace it.
Is it yellowish/yellow spots or just a little warm in tone?
If it's the latter then you have the better of the 2 screens available as colours are more accurate and the screen is brighter. As you say, your friends phone is too blue.
It can be deceiving as the clock widget for instance is not a true white so can through you off.
Best way to evaluate is display a true white blank image and you should see that it looks white and not blue (cold) or yellow (warm). I use Dead Pixel Tester which has a variety of colours you can display
i own a yellowish and a whiteish one , and surprise surprise.... the yellowish is a lot better than the other
Mine is also very yellowish, compared to my wife's sensation or to an amoled display. The colors look very ok to until i compare side by side..
I do not think it is a defect...
Guys! Don't forget to set brightness to same level when comparing. I noticed my white screen actually looks more yellowish than the warmer screen when on lowest brightness settings. However, at a higher brightness it definitely has a whiter white and it seems brighter.
I got the yellow-dot-issue yesterday :'( I have had the phone since release day and now blah, damn it! will contact HTC tonight and tell you what they say

This is not a defect. HTC One X screens are manufactured by several sources. Some come with a blueish/whiteish tint, others with a yellowish tint. I have had both units. I prefer the blueish/whiteish tint, but both screens are very good.

I also have the Yellowish Screen, I solved this problem long ago when I had my SGS2 as the Super Amoled Plus had a greenish tent with Screen Adjuster, A great app from the market, Just increase the blue to 7 or 9 and all the yellowish tent will disappear.

It's been that way since the Sensation. One display is made by Acer (cool) and the other by Sharp (warm). The XL uses Sony displays exclusively for some reason.
Here's the two different displays on the Sensation...
Yup don't worry too much. Not a problem. Even iPhone 4S'es screens are manufactured by different suppliers. My screen is the cooler one, but both have their advantages. My dad's iPhone 4S has the warmer screen, but colours look more vibrant. My One X has the cool screen, which is less vibrant in terms of colour, but more accurate.

Sony, at least for AnandTech's review unit:
"I did some poking around, and my HTC One X (AT&T) review unit has a Sony display:
[DISP] mipi_video_sony_hd720p_init: assign initial setting for SONY_NT id 0x18103 Cut1, PANEL type = PANEL_ID_ELITE_SONY_NT"
The display on the Teg3 One X is from either Sharp or AUO (Acer); HTC uses both. The AUO display is cooler and seems to be preferred. The One XL only uses a Sony display.
so sony rules!! :good:
btw i found this comparison by anandtech
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6425/google-nexus-4-and-nexus-10-review/2
in this test the LG screen seems the better one...
Read the Nexus 4 reviews they are stating the screen displays more washed out colours. It will be a good screen burn good as the One X hard to tell until those with both phones can compare.
Also remember the HOX will have the larger screen despite being the same size as the on screen buttons on the N4 takes up screen estate.

Do all displays look like that http://www.kitguru.net/mobile/blair-mcclelland/htc-one-x-smartphone-indepth-analysis/ ? By that, i mean if you enlarge that image, you can see parallel alternating lines with different color. It is visible under certain lighting only. If you also turn on the screen and put a white background, for example, and look very closely at the screen at a 10-15cm distance for some time, you can see parallel lines of alternating brightness. Does that have to do with the technology?

Those marks are the electrical tracks written on the glass to enable it to detect touch. Chemicals are used that are electrically conductive and are almost transparent to light, but not completely transparent to light, so under some circumstances you will see these marks.

I see, thanks for the information, i guess i have sensitive eyes

I don't think there is such thing as "best" screen. E.g. nothing can beat the AMOLEDs in terms of contrast. They suck at everything else (and I mean "everything"), but their black is unbeatable. Our screen has the advantage to be laminated to the protective glass which gives it great appeal. The butterfly has the highest ppi on a screen (higher than the N10 I think), but at the end of the day it's which screen looks better to YOU. And that's something only you can decide by looking at them. No benchmarking or reviews can do that.

Both current mainstream screen technologies have their advantages and disadvantages.
I like both IPS and AMOLED for different reasons.
Screen technology will improve further next year.
So just enjoy whatever device you get as there will always be something better coming along.

There are 3 different types of screens for the HoX. Some manufactured by sony, others by acer and the rest by sharp. Maybe that might be the case and there's no actual fix to that. Having experienced two type of screens.
I had the acer screen and my friend had either a sony or a sharp. We never checked, however, i can tell you that both were very nice.
While mine had whiter whites, his had much nicer, vibrant colors. Nothing to be butthurt over IMO.

Different manufacturer. There are 2 types of panel for the HOX. One of which is dimmer and also cooler colour temperature. If your whites look bluer or colder then you have the dimmer panel.

Thanks a lot mate
Bad news, this is not the case. The same screen on a diffrent One X is bright as hell, like it should be, but not on mine.. Any other ideas? The phone itslef has a waist-height fall on pavement, sahttered the glass, the screen was ok. Now the repair guy is startled and doesnt know what to do - why the screen is dimm, could it be a backlight problem caused on the motherboard?
It might be a cheap, non oem screen.
How much did you pay for it, proper ones are not cheap.
Its 85Ls so in dollars its about 170$, but its hard to compare because of the currency.
Hi,
I've noticed that the colors on my HTC One V are slightly yellowish, compared to my iPhone. Especially whites. For instance, while viewing any thing with a white background, the One V's screen positively looks yellow, like it's contracted jaundice. However it's barely noticeable if I hadn't compared it to the iPhone.
As far as I know, both have LCD displays, so why should such a discrepancy arise?
Is there any app / kernel setting that can change the color (gamma?) settings for the phone to make it more realistic and less 'yellowish' ?
many of these cases arise due to faulty LCD screens...consider sending it for repair or replacement...
Isn't our screen an amoled? I think that may have something to do with it.
