Hi Guys,
I have recently cracked my HTC WFS touch screen and got it replaced from a local retailer. After replacing , the screen's top most part is not responding properly. I mean, If i try to power on the WI-Fi using the notification drawer , it is selecting something else (may be a message that is kept unread in the notification drawer). The guy who repaired it told me that it is not a hardware issue but a software issue. He told me that recalibrating will fix this. For this purpose, I have flashed a ROM (Wild child 3 - thinking this is almost same as the stock ROM) and still i have that issue. Please help me on how can i recalibrate the display and thus solve the issue mentioned above.
Thanks
I have seen this thread and sadly nobody answered it. Hence adding a new thread with more info.
Send it back, it's definitely a hardware issue.

Thanks a lot for the response guys
Hi @omnomnomkimiiee, The seller himself told me that this ain't a hardware problem and I have to calibrate this again for this to work . But i don't think that this is a calibration issue, since all other parts of the touch screen is working fine. Only a particular part is not working. So, i guess this could be a hardware issue. Please correct me if I am wrong and Thanks a lot for the response friends

You should most definitely have him take it back. You trusted him with it to replace a broken screen, and he returned it with a broken digitizer.

I have the dash for two weeks now (wm6.5)... about 3 days ago and out of the blue the lcd started to show this white scanlines. It was just placed next to the pc and connected by the usb cable when i noticed the problem (it wasn´t phisically damaged). I hard reseted it...nothing. Installed wm6 and wm5 and nothing.. the lines are still there. I am pretty upset with this matter
Is it the lcd or something else..?
How can i fix it and prevent this to happen again?
Does anybody know if this problem is covered by the warranty and under which arguments?
Thanks.
Here is a picture of the screen so you can get an idea...

Maybe something is loose regarding your lcd (hardware), If you haven't dropped maybe you should give a shot with your warranty and probably you will get a new dash
sure you have problem with your display.you must change,or if it is new go to store,for change.good luck,and a happy cristmanth
if you say you already did some hard reseting then it's a hardware problem.. if the warranty does not cover it then try to disarm it following the instructions that you can find in this forum.. suerte amigo!
Thanks guys for the advices. I purchased a new lcd, relaced it and now it works right, seems like the problem is solved. I hope i don´t get any more problems in the future cause the dash has everything i want in a mobile phone.

Good to know that you solved your problem
Hi guys
This is my first thread, in this forum. Personally, i've never moded my cell phone, but recently attempted to root and mod my wildfire s.
I succeeded, this forum was really helpfull!
Even before the mod, my screen was driving me crazy. In the begining it took my attempts to unlock the phone. Some other time, in the messages section, keypad would act on his own, literally Even if i typed "A" it would typed "enter" or anything else but "A". So I enabled touch trace to see what happens.Here is the thing, like i suspected, touchscreen's reactions are spoted away of the point i touch. Sometimes, two touch traces appear on the screen.. Some other times, its extremely difficult to unlock the screen, hang up the phone, or use the menu.. So that's the story. With the mod nothing changed..
Is it a hardware problem? Is it a software problem?
Thanks in advance.. :good::good:
PS: I use cyanogenmod 10
Only a couple of apps installed
PS: english is not my mother language so, maybe some unusual expressions and dictation could by used :angel:

It's not a big problem..
your hand is wet, and the screen also, but if you dry it with a polyester (of your t-shirt) it will work..
only dry the display and your hand
so..

Hi, ghost inputs is a known issue caused by the charger delivering incorrect voltage/amperes. Are you using the stock one ?

Yes im using the stock one. I ve never measured the output though.. I maybe check it tomorrow.. But the problem is constant and happening, not only when the device is plugged... The other thing is, there isnt only ghost inputs, there are freezings too. Or a thing, where ex: im trying to unlock the phone, so i slide to the side, and visually im almost unlocking it, but in real, nothing happens. Its still on lock screen.
any other?? im kinda desperate with this phone.. :crying:
Perhaps a recalibration might work.

yes, If re-calibration is not helping then you need to replace the digitizer. Am also suffering the same issue now. Just got my digitizer replaced two days before. But am still suffering from some issues regarding touch. Gonna have to recheck with the retailer

Recalibration was succesfull it didn't come up with any change though...

ITS a hardware problem

Have you tried another charger?

That issue applies while we try accessing the phone while it is charging , right ? I mean, the touch response will be strange while the phone is been charged. But, here the OP is having issues with the touch screen all the time (charging / not-charging) . And re-calibration didn't work too.

It will take another two days for him to find out and clarify the issue. If it is a digitizer issue or some other hardware issue, I will update the same here ASAP.

I thought this was the error in the first place i measured current and voltage on the output of the charger and it seems legit..
I did change the charger thoug. So i didnt know how to proceed on this one. The way im thinking of it right now, i might let the battery completely deplete and charge from the new one?
Hey,
I just purchased a HTC Desire 820 dual sim about 3 days back, and on clicking pictures with flash on from the primary 13MP camera, an evident greenish tint is noticed.
Is anyone else having the same problem, or should I opt for replacement? Is it a hardware or software problem?
Attaching samples.
Please help ASAP. Thanks!
same problem here with me
I have exactly the same problem, however i requested the new replacement model from the retail online site. It's a software glitch, because playing with the setting like using florescent option it solves, so it is complete software issue, but in a replacement warranty scenario i am asking for the replacement, lets c what happens next..

I have opted for a replacement myself, but I doubt that will solve the problem. It is not a small issue, I don't know if I should persist with the device. Will HTC rectify it? Was it there before the software update too?
Urgent!
Guys please test on your own devices and post the results.
Do surely tell us

Dear when getting phone, do first is take picture firing flash and see whether the problem remains, do not update the phone, do it before updating the phone, and do tell us here. My new replacement phone is on the way, whenever i will get it.. i will surely share the experience..

Received the replacement unit, issue still exists. It is a problem with the device itself I feel.
Same greenish tint issue
Guys,
This might sound funny to you that i first purchased this device on 25th Jan 2015 and there were no greenish tint issues in that phone but it was automatically rebooting itself when i tried to click pics with the FLASH ON. This didn't happen when I purchased the device, happened at a later stage (after a day). So I went up to HTC and asked for the repair of the device (I knew i'll get the DOA bcoz it was a faulty piece) and I got the DOA after they tested it.
Got the replacement and I'm seeing this issue on my phone. Searched around the forum to find out that I'm not the only one facing this issue.
I first thought that it would be a hardware issue but its not guys, its a software issue. Change the settings to "Flourescent" and the greenish tint disappears, though you'll see a light blue effect on it.
Lets just hope HTC releases an update for this.

Not software, hardware. It was there on my unit even before the software update. It's there only on a specific batch I guess. I returned it. Can't tolerate the faulty piece.

Okay, As I suspected that it would be a SOFTWARE ISSUE and NOT a hardware issue was TRUE.
Today I went to the HTC Repair Center and opted for the issue to get fixed. One of its representatives pointed it to be software issue.
They took my phone and FIXED it and now the camera works perfectly fine with FLASH ON.
Hope this helps other guys out there.

Hi to everyone.
Last night my smartphone (HTC One m9) fell to the floor, like at 30cm of height. It have plastic cover (official Dot View) and apparently it doesn't have any damage. But today I noticed that auto rotation doesn't work.
I tried to calibrate it, and one of the axis doesn't move. I restored an old backup to view if its a software problem, but it still not working.
Someone have any idea? Because auto rotating is very important for my normal use of the smartphone, and without it...
Thanks for everyone.
Since you dropped the phone, it is possible that you may have caused irreversible damage. You could try the solution posted in the linked thread. If it doesn't work, you are probably out of luck and will need to send the phone in for repair.

not yet brother. I'm really disappointed with this issue Is this happened to you after update to Android O? What did you try?
I don't know the fix for this. I just kept my phone is my drawer for a few months and when I took it out, it was fixed.
Although I did note 1 thing - The display had started to show white noise as soon as it became hot. I had to keep it on a cold plate to make it normal again. The only thing I can recommend is putting it in fridge or something and then turning it on. Listen to me at your own risk. I ain't no mobile fixer, but just a random guy.

That's literally the biggest no-no with electronics.
When you can't repair something on your own, you would usually seek out a person who can and, eventually, pay for the repair. You do not ask for possible solutions which you would probably not be able to perform on your own.

This certain advice is being given everywhere. (Even I'm a bit skeptical on this). On that repair thing- I literally asked every single repair guy in my local city and not a single one could fix it. This nexus had just become my tinkering toy so I had nothing to lose. If anyone still has the value for it, please take it to your repair guy.
I think this is the same issue that I have. I talked to Larry from India at Google. He had the same issue with his phone and LG was fixing the issue for his phone. He said it was a connector from the board to the screen.
So he hooked me up with LG. I talked to Holly and she sent me an label and repair under warr. They extended their normal warranty. LG previously fixed the bootloader issue by replacing the motherboard, so this issue may have been caused when they fixed the phone. May want to try contacting LG, see if it helps.
Hi, i have the same issue on my Nexus 5x. did you find any solution?
This is the second time happened to my Nexus 5X. but it fixed with no reason after about 3-4 days i put into drawer.
then this happen again since last night.
Did you try to clear the delvik cache or something via recovery mode?
sorry for bad english
