Hello everyone ! I need your help, i should know if i have a problem with my screen ? When i compare my M9's screen with my M8's screen , I find that whites are yellow on the M9
Look (on the first image the M9 is on the left and to the right on the other image)
So do you think it's a material problem ?
I had the same exact issue with my m9 when comparing it with m8 colors are greenish and not as bright as m8, exchange my m9 once but the second one had the exact colors temperature and brightness I had to sell it and hold on to my m8 and see if the next batch is any better.

Hmm hard to tell from photos.. my M9s white calibrations seems to be pretty cold, rather going to blue than to yellow
I know, it 's what I read, that is why I wonder if I have a problem...
Mine is pretty white, maybe more to blue than yellow or red. On a full white background it looks much more white than my old M8, but it is all personal taste.
I doubt you have a real problem with your screen but if it's really annoying you maybe you could change it.
I had an Xperia Z3 and compared that to another Z3 and the colour temperature of mine was super blue but the other was more natural.

Hi
I've bought yesterday my Desire and I've noticed that in the upper middle screen part there is a small yellowish backlight glow only seen on black background. Can You tell me if there should be one or I should take it back to the shop ? This is probably the new SLCD version. I don't know is this a flaw or all of the sceens have some little glow on the black.
Thanks in advance
yellowish backlight?
is it in a dot size?
have you try different background color (red, green, blue)?

It is some kind of LCD bleeding. It looks similar to the picture attached below.
Mine is just slightly visible compared to this photo (copied from androidforums.com) but still it's the same issue. I just wanted to confirm from a SLCD Desire user if this is a typical for those diplays, or if I should take it back to the shop.
Most LCD screens bleed light to some degree, but that looks totally unacceptable to me. I'd take it back.
EDIT: Oops, should have read the full post. Well that one above is really bad, any chance of getting a picture of yours?

Yeah, I finally managed to do some photos.
The second one is with other light source (a 20W lamp). The first and third are without any lamp, high iso photos, but the first one has added brigthness in Photoshop, and third is on default. Remember these photos are on full display brightness, just to show how the screen behaves on dark, black background.
cant u see if its slcd on the side of ur package?

It is a slcd because it doesn't say it's amoled on the back. I just wanted to know if all slcds in Desire have this problem. I don't want to take it back just to get another device that has the same problem or even worse.
Well that's definitely SLCD... OLED (like my phone) will be pitch black when it's on a black screen, as there is no backlight on them.
Yes that is definitely a flaw. I would definitely take it back. It's unlikely you'd get another one that bad.
I've found a film on YouTube:
So it's just probably the thing with all SLCD's. Still I love the phone and since I know that I won't get a AMOLED version I'll probably keep this and just have fun with it. Thank You all for Your replies
Does HTC use panels from different manufacturers? Because I have two HOX right now, and I can see a BIG difference between the screens. One of them have much warmer colors and is at the same time brighter and have better viewing angels. Or can it really differ that much between screens with the same panel?
Anyway, will test if they have the same screen on time, and if they are made in different countries.
And finally here is some shots I took. The difference shows more IRL then the pics but atleast you can see there IS a difference.
Edit: I have now checked last_kmsg on both phones, and there are indeed two different panels! The warmer one have panel_id=0x294000f while the colder one have the same as some in this thread, panel_id=0x4940014...

drying glue perhaps?
Can you tell us the serial numbers on each one? It should be ht23 or ht24

It always happens with devices from HTC. There is a thread in Sensation forum for the same. There were two types of screens used for sensation(mainly) One from Acer and another sharp if i remember correctly. The Sharp made had yellow tint and less vivid. While Acer LCD had vivid but more of them had ghosting problems. You can check the Panel type in devices using same method i beleive.

Nah, don't think so cuz the one with warmer screen was the test phone at the store and they have both been used ALOT since coming home. Have had them more than a week now.

How annoying, I hate products where it is a lottery if you get a good or bad panel.. And unfortunately there isn't anything about panel_id in dmesg on the One X. Anyone know another way to check, aside from taking it apart?
I have also seen that difference in display color, now I have my 2nd ONE X
same thing for me, first device was white with vivid color, 2nd is yellow with worse colors.
Also the serial number from my ONE X Grey starts with H23 and is made in Taiwan
Bugger! How is one supposed to know if they have an inferior display if you don't have another model to compare it with?
Just out of interest have you had any of the display issues that have been posted in the numerous threads on either display?
BTW, i was/am using Screen Adjuster to adjust the screen tone to my tastes. Its not a solution, however better than none. I didn't test it with my HOX yet. Should work.
Any of these has flex or flickering?

The colder one doesn't look as close to the surface as the warmer one...maybe it's not laminated properly?

Yeah, the warmer one have had it ONE singel time, but it felt like a software glitch, with it "moving" the whole screen, so to speak. And both ofc have that problem with the notification bar, but that I know is software. Other than that I haven't seen any problems, yet.

Could be, but IRL I can't really see any difference in proximity to the surface. And would that really make the viewing angels worse? Because the cold one get noticeable darker from the sides while with the warm one you barely notice any difference.
I got a gray one on Friday and a white one today thinking I'd prefer white. The display on the gray one is startlingly perfect. I mean like “OMG, look at that display” perfect. The white one's not as bright and is a lot warmer and looks dull in comparison. They’re both fine and neither flicker or have any of the other discussed screen issues. Oh well, the gods obviously want me to have a gray phone.
It's hilarious how there is a thread like this for EVERY single new phone released.
Just enjoy the damn phone and stop worrying about if you have the "inferior" screen. It's sad really.
my wife's and mine are diff too. mine is little more yellowish but when you did not put side by side you wont notice it.
btw the minor screen flicker is kernel issue with tegrak 3...TF prime had this issue much worst off + multitask screen tearing than one x, currently itz just being solved with latest firmware's kernel.

Do you go from forum to forum creating posts like this in response? If so, it's sad really.
These aren't cheap devices and of all the parts of the phone the display is probably the most important because you'll be staring at it for a year or more. I don't blame people for wanting the best example of the display they can have or *****ing because there's such a broad disparity between them from device to device. If manufacturer's QC and tolerances were better threads like this wouldn't need to exist.
OMG my white one look yellow like that pic
singtel one
I noticed another thing with the colder one, there are some weird vertical lines in the screen. They are only visible in certain lighting conditions, like if you reflect it at your computer screen. Haven't seen that on any other phone. Haven't had the chans to check the warm one yet. I'll report back then.
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

Which one of those is the yellowish one?

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.

I had a yellow bit at top of my screen, and took back to tesco as my contract was only. 11 days old.

Hey guys. Just wanted to ask a thing.
When I see my One V at steep angles (or even at certain angles), the screen appears grainy. I mean, it looks like cluttered pixels. The Grain effect on screen is only visible on white backgrounds with high brightness. Is this a defect ? I read somewhere that this Grainy screen is visible because of the Adhesive glue. Please let me know if you experience this. Thank you.

Perhaps you could look at it normally? A phone isn't made to look at it from steep angles. And if it only appears on white backgrounds with high brightness, maybe use a different wallpaper and lower brightness (=better battery life). People want everything these days...

I completely agree with you. The purpose was to just find out if this is a defect or not. Do you experience this or get this grainy effect ? (I'm just asking)
i think you should go for a replacment..i dont have any such problem..and no1 here has it...you're the 1st one to report such kind of issue
I've already had my One V's screen replaced.
replace again then i think you got old stock of the phone///
whts ur manufacturing date written on the box?
It's been around 6 months since I've got my One V. I don't think that HTC will replace it.
Manufacturing date - July 2012
Other users of One V. Please see if you all get this Grainy Effect. Or am I the only one.

you cannot choose as they are not meant to be released like this. its by luck and i think the blue tint its better! screen looks brighter as i had my HTC one x screen replaced with a yellow unit and i didnt like it at all.
there is another thread talking about this so i guess this thread will be closed
