Hello everyone,
I have a Note 2 which has witnessed frong glass changes twice and whole screen change once (thank you, sister). The problem is, the last time I needed the whole screen replacement, I bought it 2nd hand from a guy who was either using dead phones' working screens or the ones he fixed.
Apperiantly my new screen is coming among those have been fixed. Because the screen is not correctly aligned to the outer glass. As it's a white phone I can easily see black frames (which are the areas of screen but no pixels there) are not equal when the screen is on. One more thing; my front camera is blurry and the notification LED is glowing a "half-circle". Other than that no problems there.
So my intention is; I want to seperate them and clean the adhesive completely so the camera and LED will be clean and I will be able to re-allign the glass to the screen.
My questions are;
1) How can I clean the whole adhessive without harming the screen
2) What can I re-attach the screen with? I think that Optic Clear Adhesives need Otoglav Machines and they are probably more expensive than a brand new Note 2 I am open to any suggestions about this material..
Thanks
No one?

Oh my god, I just noticed that my "new" (~ a month old) desire has a bunch of dead pixels . I counted 6 spots on the display wherer there is at least one dead pixel. One is clear to see, must be more than one pixel dead there. I can clearly tell that they are dead pixels, because if i tilt the phone they change color.
I tried PixelFix App but it did not help. (btw: having SLCD screen)
If nothing helps I will have to make use of the warranty. Will they repair/chang the display?
Anyone with the same problem / a solution? Or should i just go to my providers shop?
Should I remove the screen protector first? If they think I am stupid they might tell my its my own fault, because I am using the screen protector with glue (or whatever).
Well, dead pixels don't change color... remove the screen protector first and wipe the display with a clean, soft cloth the screen, see if they still show.
The warranty should cover this fault when a certain number of dead pixels is reached.
Otherwise, a whole new screen goes for around 130-140 $.
With monitors you need 2 dead pixells so I would say the same about screens.

On a black screen they clearly shine bright white or cyan (can't really tell because they are so tiny). If I change the view angle it changes to some kind of red.
Do such apps like PixelFixer help at all?
If I remember correctly, the colored stuck pixels that have other color than black are called sub-pixels and are the components of a "full-fledged" pixel, so a stuck sub-pixel could be your problem. In any case, neither should change color when tilting the screen.
I never heard of a single case of "healing" a dead pixel problem using a software, although in theory they all say could do it...
Did you remove the screen protector?
Just talk to HTC or your insurance or your carrier and see what they can do. Your still in warranty so best to take the safe route.
Hello, found a few scratches on my Xperia Arc screen and got very disappointed, I thought it had scratch resistant screen, later I took a close look to the screen and found out that it had one more screen layer, could anyone tell me if it can be removed or not, because when I asked SE support team, the operator told me that it can be removed, I just wont a suggestion, help guys.
I would not touch that layer it is part of the capacitive sensor on the screen if I'm not mistaken
yeah, I'm afraid of that too, but support team convinced me in opposite
Yes, you can remove it without problems. I did it in December without problems so far.

how did you remove it? any suggestions to peel it off? It's a bit hard to do that ( with nails )
With my nails
It takes a while to pick up a corner, but once you got a corner picked up it's easy.

Part of capacitive sensor ?? Lol
Anyways..it's just a screen protector..if got scratched,replace it with a new one..
And in this case,i would suggest you to seek some professional help as you might end up making new scratches in order to remove the protector.It's a tough job and needs a lot of love and care d(^_^)
Thank you all, I did it, it really was a screen protector, if found layer like this on your arc , you should peel it off, as a result you get Better colors, touchscreen enhancement and sharper image.
I dont think that we should remove the screen guard. SE provides two screen guards with the handset. One comes already pasted on ur handset and other comes in the box. we need not remove it as it keeps the main screen safe from scratches..
I really agree with your, but that screen protector makes touchpad less sensitive and colors are less vivid, so I prefer being extra careful with my phone then looking at Less Attractive screen
Last time I checked the screen protector I have on doesn't change the quality, clearness or the color of the display. Just saying.
Protect your screen with one. Most of them now a good and leave your screen feeling normal.
i know its an old question but anyway i have one question.how hard is it to peel of the screen protector? im trying it right now and im afraid of braking something, should i force it off or what?
It is glued there so you may have to use some force to peel it off.

Hello community.
I've recently replaced the glass on my SIII, and is a tad worried.
I replaced the glass only, not LED & digitizer, and it mainly works fine.
However, the new glass touches the middle of the digitizer. From time to time, it will also register as a touch, messing with the usability. When this happends, I have to turn the screen on & off again, and it'll work fine for a bit more - as long as I don't press too hard on the screen.
I read someone claiming that this might be a sign that the screen isn't hard glass, but flexible plastic, which will destroy the digitizer (due to the constant pressure).
So I'm basically looking to talk to someone who knows anything about this.
Or anyone else with experience from replacing glass.
Ball tossed to community.

I wouldnt know i replaced the glass my self and the screen broke so i never tried it again :\ i no at work we get a new screen aswell and replace the whole unit saves alot of hassle just alot more money
like
:good:
Well I just replaced my glass after a destruction of my original glass.... this on the fourth day of the phone with me...
And now the glass reflects a lot (compared to the original glass) also there is a little bit of blur on the screen which really was annoying, tried to find a solution to these problems but they said everything was normal and that this flaw in the screen was due to replacing only the glass not the whole screen..... also the colors of the touch buttons changed.....
But..... guess I'll have to survive with the device for a year like this.... only a matte based screen protector saves the quality. .

I am having an issue, My phone for a while now loses responsiveness along a section of the screen from time to time (see attached image)
Recently it fell and that issue has become more or less permanent with the strip not showing any responsiveness most of the time and the entire screen not responding from time to time.
I was hoping someone can help me decide which of these 2 items I should buy to fix the issues since all the test I've run using screen calibration/testing apps show no signs of dead pixels and the screen itself has no cracks or anything that suggest the LCD is damaged. I'm currently on CM11 M8 and using developers options I've turned on the "show screen touches". this showed that from time to time there are constant touches on the right hand side of the black area between the white shown in the image.
Also if i'm in say whatsapp the send button falls exactly on that (right hand side) resulting in messages/voicenotes being sent before i finish. Do you think I have to buy 1 or 2
1. Full LCD Display + Touch Screen Glass Digitizer Lens Assembly for HTC One X
or
2. Touch Screen Glass Digitizer Lens Replacement for HTC One X
Would post the ebay links but i'm not not being allowed

Hi,
please have a look at the attached image, cause its hard to explain.
It was kind of strange... it started with some cloudy pixels in the middle of the screen, they went down to where they are now and got more intense.
Its now there since about 4 weeks without change.
Anyone experienced it? I guess I need to replace the screen, or is there any other chance? In case I have to replace it, what would I need to get? The touch screen digitzer or the full lcd display?
Thanks
Susi

Although i'm not an expert on this, But i should suggest you to replace Digitizer only because it seems like Display is okay just chemical imbalance between digitizer and display panel.
If you've proper tool to disable the device and with some flat hard plastic or something try to take this to the edge where it easily go out. To me Display seems okie. Because such things happen when we put phone in tight jeans and due to over compression such happens but it has nothing to with display panel, its just chemical in between display and digitizer.
I had an iPod 4th Gen,. Same kinda Dark black spot i've noticed after single drop on top right corner and later it disappear automatically. So just saying try that first rather buying whole new panel or digitizer. Flat blunt plastic to take that bubble to the side
