Hi All
I got my Desire yesterday and played around a bit with it. What I am noticing is that the screen seems to be a little bit uncalibrated. For example, when I want to click on App1, I am clicking on App2 which is underneath it. Seems like my click is effectively being hit on the screen lower than where I intended. Hope I made myself clear.
Can anybody tell me if this happens and if there is anyway to fix that?
Thanks

As there isnt a calibration utility on the desire i think that you may have to contact your provider or htc to find out whats wrong.
aww
provider you mean the shop I bought the phone from?

Yes or if its on a contract to a network like t-mobile you should contact them
ok thanks
Its not that bad actually, maybe I have to get used to it. Thought there was some setting to fix it. If it gets annoying will contact the shop.

It can be a bit different i felt like this when i first got my desire but i have now got used to it!
actually its not a fault in the touch screen cause everything works, its just when I have a list of apps and I want to click lets say on the third one, the fourth one gets launched, and not always happens.
As I said, maybe since I am new to it all so its maybe my fingers that have to get used to it.
I do not think its a fault with the device actually
I had exactly same problem, when I switched to FroYo no problems, so software issue
Hi Benko
thanks for the message. So I guess I will have to wait for the Froyo update, or else I have to root my device, however since I am a complete newbie, I am quite afraid to do that.
Hopefully the new 2.2 will also allow for SD card installations!
You can try the new ROM update from HTC, if you don't have it, personally haven't tried it but maybe it will help
Serch for latest official rom(I believe it is 1.21.405.2)
try calibrating the keyboard, I think it calibrates the screen for other inputs as well.
How do I know which ROM I have presently?

I have an idea, that I'm willing to test. This is my first post in the Dev Section, so go easy on me if I have made any mistakes.
I'm sure many of you are aware of the issues with the One X, Flickering, Glitchy UI etc. So, I came up with a idea -
I have 2 HTC One X in my possession, one works flawlessly but has a Yellow screen (Because it is possibly made by Sharp), the other which is my first one, has flickering and every problem you can imagine.
So, If I was to get the ROM from my working Yellow screen One X, onto my first One X, is it possible that this would stop all the problems AND work on the clearer screen (possibly made by Acer)?
I'm willing to test it. But my time is running out. Both phones are due back within 3 weeks now as I've filed for a refund from Amazon. And before I do this, will it stop me from getting a refund? Regardless, the phones have issues (I guess the yellow screen is not a bug, but it is not the phone I purchased - if you get me).
So, what do I do? How do I dump my ROM, and how do I get it on my first One X?
All I know is to unlock them both on htcdev.com, but rooting and getting Clockwork/xRecovery (whatever it's name is now), I haven't got a clue. I've done it with all my other devices (around 6 or 7), but this is a different kettle of fish.
Thanks!

Are you assuming the screens are made by Sharp or Acer as they are the suppliers HTC chose for the Sensation?

Yeah, it's just an assumption. It's very probable.
I don't know if it's possible to return an unlocked phone, because unlocking the phone voids some parts of the warranty. But i believe that there's a way to return the phone to it's locked state by re-locking and flashing the stock RUU, but i haven't tried it, and i don't know if it's possible to do with the one X.
You really think the phones have different ROMs? Because that's what you are suggesting, and in that case there would be different RRU's also. And also a clean RRU install would fix the flicker in that case, which I'm sure it doesn't.. And also, I think the screens are made by Samsung, but I'm not sure. The few I've tested have had the same panel ID even though one is warmer (yellower) than the other.
And lastly, you won't be able to return it if you've unlocked it though htcdev.com.. Maybe, if your lucky they don't check, you could re-lock it and hope for the best. But I guess Amazon know's what to look for. You better leave the dev'ing to the devs.

Your right. Not unless the FW is stored on a server and somehow is locked to you when you download the FW for reinstall. I'll give this a shot. I'm back on Ubuntu now, so I'm not 100% sure how to update my HTC using it... I'll look.

Check the software version number, if it's the same then there is no benefit to "copying" the rom from one to the other.

I just thought it might be worth a shot. No one seems to have an answer as to why the screen flickers. I'm just trying to narrow what could be wrong down by doing tests.

The answer is most probably faulty hardware, I've tried loads of roms not one fixes the flicker, mine gets replaced Monday.

It's surely not software. Maybe if the nand is broken and your screen drivers just happens to be at the bad blocks every time (and don't get remapped) No, don't waste your time and possibly money on this, it's most likely faulty hardware anyway. You could "adb pull /proc/last_dmsg last_dmsg" then open that file in a text editor and check if the both phones hade the same panel ID. If not, then it could be driver-related. Or maybe it's as simple as a loose connection.
I am pretty sure the flicker is software and not hardware. I get it, it normally starts ( but is not limited to ) when on the home screen. If you are experiencing flicker navigate somewhere with the option to bring up a menu. When I bring up a menu over the flickering screen the menu is solid and does not flicker while the activity underneath is still distorted.
I have tried killing sense to let it restart and that normally gets rid of the flicker.
(I call it flicker but it is really more like the image on the screen warps from the bottom but stays still at the top in a fluctuating way.)

hey guys,
so my friend got a One X, that's Dead...pretty cheap...and we're trying to revive it.
up till now, the phone only vibrates when pressing the power button, screen doesn't wake up. how to access the bootloader "if it's even accessible"?
any way to know if it's fixable?
Uhh, it doesn't sound too easily fixable. If the screen isn't even turning on, you're off to a bad start. Sounds like some kind of hardware fault, not something you'll be able to flash to fix.

That's a hardware fault maybe faulty flex cable

if you look at the phone, it's very clean, i can tell it never had a smudge or any fall...also the screen is clean, no scratches. quite a catch! what could have made the flex cable go bad?!
in the boot animation the screen is quite good!
You say in the boot animation the screen is good, does it ever clear up entirely? You COULD get a display like that from software, but it's more than likely hardware. For example, running Gingerbread ROMs on the Infuse with Froyo bootloaders cause similar rainbow effects due to a change in coding, so you can POSSIBLY have a scrambled display without a hardware failure.
It may have just been a faulty phone and that's why it looks like it's in good shape. It's not necessarily something that someone broke. It could be a bad GPU chip, it could be a flex cable as mentioned, it could be a lot of things. If you (or rather your friend) got it for cheap, and you want to try opening it up to inspect the cables, you can find disassembly threads and videos to tell you how. You could be going on a wild goose chase though.

sometimes it boots up with that white messed up screen, sometimes it boots with the sense 4 lockscreen. lags a lot while trying to unlock the lockscreen, after that all hell breaks loose and screen becomes messed up pretty bad.
thanks for the tips man, i will try opening it up and having a look inside.
it could be a bad factory outlet as a friend suggested...

Well, hell, you can try reflashing the software if you can see enough in recovery mode (vol down and power at the same time). I can't see how it would hurt it any more. From the sound of it, you either have VERY messed up software, or more than likely, faulty hardware. Does it seem like the display works any better when it's been off for a while (cold)? If it gets worse the longer it's on, or if it had been on and you just rebooted, it would point more towards a faulty gpu chip to me and the heat causing the problem to come out.
Not sure about how warranties transfer or if they do at all (might depend country to country too), but you could see if it's still under warranty and can be sent in before you open it up.

actually, the screen gets better when used more to be honest. first we got it, the screen never turned on, then after many tries, it finally came up...first time it was like in the pic, second boot it was sense 4 lockscreen, but messed up later on.

Hmm... weird. Not sure what to say. Well, good luck. I hope it works out!
What honestly it looks like to me is that they tried to flash a american version of a rom on to the phone so you have the improper bootloaders and such. hopefully this works for you.

I know I don't own an one x, but I do have a HTC Rezound, and I cracked the screen in it, and mine did the something while watching YouTube videos, but then it just went back to normal, this happened twice to me. I thought my screen was going out, but if yours is doing it and there's no physical damage, had to be something in the phone, or maybe software is that even possible? Lol.
Just thought I'd share what happened to me..

yes it could be a software issue. so your phone had that issue after changing your digitizer/screen? and then became normally by itself later on...?

yes, check your PM.
I'm having some rather annoying issues with my G4, the camera barely works, sometimes it opens but i get a black screen, like my finger is on the lens, but it's not. Sometimes that results in an error message "Unfortunately, camera has stopped" or "camera unavailable", sometimes it just stays black and sometimes the phone reboots.
And now lately i can't use the flashlight anymore, says it's already being used.
The camera works again after i reboot, but most of the times i have to reboot multiple times.
I read quite a few forums and even threads here and tried pretty much everything (clearing cache, uninstalling LG Smartworld or something like that, removing the battery, etc.) and nothing really worked, so yesterday i finally decided it was time for more drastic measures and i unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and then installed Imperium ROM v14 and it seemed fine but today i get a black screen again. I didn't restore any of my previous apps and settings on purpose, to see if they were causing the problem.
Someone here suggested (to someone else) to try flashing KDZ or something like that, i and probably the other guy, have no idea what KDZ is or where to get it.
I bought this phone used almost 2 years ago, so i have no warranty. Didn't have any issues until about 6-9 months ago and they seem to be getting worse, battery life isn't what it used to be either.
My only options are to try a non-stock rom like CM, to go back to an android 5.0 based rom, or to sell the phone as a semi-defective product, maybe i can get a used S5 for it.
This is very frustrating and somewhat ironic, since i bought this phone because it had the best camera at the time and i barely use it for anything else than taking pictures.
I'm never buying LG again.
This is a fairly common issue, maybe common enough that it should be a sticky.
Got the same issue after display repair. Camera got broken. I always needed to reboot phone so camera gets working again. Only fix was to send it to repair. They replaced camera, after that it worked again normal.
For me it was guarantee because before display repair I didn't have issue like that.
You can replace your camera, I don't think it's so difficult.
It's also not that expensive:

OK, that's something i didn't even think of, so it's definitely a hardware issue ?
I read up on this KDZ thing and it seems to be a firmware updater for LG phones, would using that help ? and/or is the risk of bricking he phone too great ?

It is hardware issue. I had exact same issue. I was in stock. Didn't modify anything. After display repair they completely reflashed it. Of course you can try other firmware, but really had the same issue.
I didn't spend so much time on it, therefore don't remember exactly if i got force closes.
I only remember that the camera worked, later i got black screen, i could see the buttons, but no pic. After restart it worked again.
I also thought software issue because after restart it worked. Tried really everything which was possible without unlocked bootloader, but didn't worked.
I can't say it is definitive, could be also a motherboard issue. Or an other part of the camera (flash light, ir sensor), I only tell you what was replaced on my phone.
I would try it, camera is not so expensive.

Flashlight is camera related. I believe i had the same issue with flash light.
I think I tried to use other camera apps, i always got the message, that it is in use.
If it is mainboard, you should buy a new phone. Mainboard is too expensive.
But I don't believe in it, mainboard issue your phone wouldn't start anymore as we know how sensitive G4 is.
Flashlight would only freeze camera while making photos. You can check ir sensor, use an other camera and check out if there comes light from sensor.
I don't think that would be the reason to stop the camera from working.
So if the back camera is broken then why doesn't the front one work ? is it because they both run in 1 app and are kinda tied together ?
The replacement back camera should be arriving in 1-2 days.

Back on my g2. It was a refurb. And ended up being corrupted firmware and or kernel. After a reflash of firmware worked great. Ures sounds firmware related if the front aint working either. Have u tried any 3rd party camera apps to see if same results

Strange way to write 'yours', so using KDZ to update or reflash the firmware might help ? is it risky ?
I haven't tried it since i installed the Imperium Rom, but with the stock rom any and all apps that used the camera wouldn't work.
This all started after i sideloaded the google camera app (to take VR photos), which was not supported by the G4, i wonder if doing that is what caused all this.

There havebeen a few camera failures and a good majority have been hardware related.
As long as u dont downgrade ure firmware not risky. And yes if thats when ure issues started i would safely say that is the issue. U may just try reflashing the rom ure on clean wipe all but ext sd. And start over and see if it persists

Well i just went from stock to Imperium and while unlocking the phone everything was wiped anyway so doing that again won't change anything, unless there is some cache or something i don't know about.
Anyway, i ordered this new camera so i'll wait for it and if that doesn't work then i'll try reflashing the firmware.
Are newer LG flagships (G5, G6) just as poorly built ? cuz i'm pretty sure i'm going back to samsung after this.

I think they are. Dont know forst hand. I love my note 5. My battery xied in it the other day so im waitin on a bettery hopefully it works. Im been so fed up with lg.
got the new camera but haven't installed it yet since my phone has other issues right now, like freezing, random restarts, the quick toggles are gone, my wallpapers seems to have been removed, etc. and now it's stuck on booting (not bootlooping though)
I would like to reflash the firmware (KDZ) but the get the right one i need my IMEI number (the one underneath the battery seems to not be the one) or to see what software version the phone is running, i would need a working phone for both.
Would reflashing the Imperium rom fix this ?
The imperium rom is v20P, but there is no kdz firmware like that only V20D or V20G
Have that for months
That freakin camera issue is haunting me for months. I have tried reflashing EVERY freaking rom(stock,cm,everything) and it doesnt change anything. I have teardown my g4 to parts,plug them in and still the same.Sometimes works for a week,sometimes doesnt work for 1 month. I don;t get it. Finally someone with my problem! Man can you replace the camera module and tell me if that works so i order mine?

Man can you replace the camera module and tell me if that works so i order mine?

Did you try reflashing the firmware ? (the KDZ thing)
Also no, i can't try that for you right now, like i wrote previously i got bigger problems, also i got my camera locally for like $15, if you tried everything else that is not a lot of money to spend, and if it doesn't fix your problem then you can just resell the camera. Now go do it.

i reflash using kdz and other programs. To give you the prespective that even deletes the twrp and fully wipes all phones data and flashes the new ones.If you flash yours it sould be fine because i have flashed nearly all the letters (ex. v20d,e etc). Flash it see that the camera is not fixed and then change the module to tell me..in greece new camera costs 30 euros so it's not that cheap for me to spend and then does not fix nothing

Well i didn't buy a new one, i bought a used one from local listings site (like craigslist in the USA or Kijiji in Canada, every country has their own) and if the new camera doesn't work you can sell it for the exact same amount, all it will cost you is shipping and time.
If i can fix the booting issue and i still have camera issues i will install the new camera, but don't wait for me, it could take weeks, or i could just get angry and buy a used Samsung Galaxy S5 and throw this in the trash (or most likely sell it for parts)

It's not a shop, it's a website like ebay, anyone can sell anything there, you have many sites like that i'm sure, every country does. 99% of things sold there are by regular people like you and me.
Google "used lg g4 camera for sale" (in your language) and the first 5 websites will probably be what you are looking for.
This is what ours looks like https://www.olx.ro/oferte/q-lg-g4/, there are at least 10-20 smaller sites, there are even facebook groups, where people post the stuff they don't want anymore.
You're saying you have none of these ?

If you do a system wipe, and still have the issue, you'll either have to get it serviced or replaced... or strap a vibrator to it.
I had the same issue and its in the settings somewhere I can't quite remember where it was that I changed it

It's probably a hardware issue if you did a factory data reset and it still vibrates constantly after your done.. If you made any changes or settings adjustments then try putting them back to defaults, or uninstall anything you may have installed recently (maybe a rogue app).
You can try going to safe mode and seeing if it still vibrates all the time.
IMHO the simplest approach (if possible) is if you can get it replaced by Amazon I would just do that and not try to delve to much more into it.
Happened to me shortly after purchasing. Had to get phone replaced. Actually happened to quite a few people.

Yeah Samsung won't touch my international phone. Ubreakit said they'd fix mine, and for cheap. But fortunately for me, the seller was kind enough to replace the phone. And it stopped working after ten days of opening. Very irritating when something so simple, yet important and expected to work without issues can cause such a hassle.
