Unresponsive Screen and Ghosting When Dark Colours are displayed - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On my Zenfone 2 when dark apps are displayed the screen becomes full with vertical line and ghosting and it recovers after a while.
It even happens on Bootloader and recovery mode

This is a problem with the LCD. You can get it replaced easily.

There was a bad batch of LCDs actually for the ZE551ML. From what I found, all AUO (AU Optronics) LCDs were either defective out of the box or will have this exact issue in their lifetime. The TM (Tianma) displays are good. My ZenFone 2 came with the Tianma display out of the box. The reason I had to replace it after 1.5 years was that the glass got broken. I replaced it with another Tianma display and it is fine ever since. The phone is almost 4 years old and still performs good as new.

[Q] Original AMOLED owners - Replacement question

To those who had an AMOLED screen (hardware version 002) and issued a replacement from Verizon:
Did they give you an AMOLED phone?
If so, how recent was this?
Also, did it have any issues?
Was it refurbished, or certified like-new?
I may have to look at getting my Inc replaced, but I sure as hell won't do it if I get an SLCD.
I just got my replace like 8 days ago.. I got a certified like new one... the only problem that I have is that I have no clue how to find out if I have a sLcd or a Amoled.. I know it should have a 002 number under the battery but honestly I dont see that in mine...
hope my info helps...
Note: I just check and I got a Amoled 002...
Settings > about phone > hardware information

When I got my replacement last month they gave me another amoled. To be honest though, the colors sucked, white had a yellowish tint. Nothing a little calibration couldn't fix however.
I've had four of them replaced, all for blown speakers. The last two I asked them for an amoled. If you ask, they will send you which ever one you want.

I don't mean to hijack, but how do you calibrate the color of the screen? The last two replacements I got have had a yellow screen and it seems to have gotten better, but I think I just got used to it.
EDIT: to add useful info, I have had 3 replacements since last April, the most recent one being last week and all were amoled screens. My wife had one replaced too and it was also an amoled.
I had mine replaced a few weeks ago, and it's an AMOLED. I haven't had the color tint issues, but my power button is a little sketchy. :/
I also can't sign into Peep on this phone when running Skyraider, but my old phone didn't have problems with it. It doesn't seem like it'd be a hardware problem, but it's the only difference I can think of.
Alright, seems safe to get a refurb now. Thanks guys.
And I assume they're all refurbished units by now instead of certified like-new, whatever the difference would be.

There's not a difference. It's either that or you send yours back to HTC to have them repair/refurbish YOUR phone and wait for whatever their turnover period is to get it back to you. There might not even be any history on the replacement you got at all so stop worrying about whether it's refurbished or not.
Second point, if you originally purchased an AMOLED unit, and you need a replacement you will receive another AMOLED. If you purchased an SLCD version you'll get an SLCD replacement. We have different SKU's for both that are automatically populated in the order system.

Here is the thread I found it in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745248
I can only vouch for ASOP however, I don't use a Sense rom so haven't tested it. Just download and flash calibrated-signed-42-Universal.zip. Then boot up and install Calibrator-5.1-Universal.apk. When you run that, you should be able to change each color calibration. It's pretty amazing, I was thrilled when I finally found it.
Got my replacement today.
Works perfectly. Also, it is AMOLED. Screen isn't "washed out" or anything either.
*edit*
Well, ****. It has ONE dead/permanently blue/cyan pixel in the middle of the bottom half of the screen.

My P9 EVA-L19 Glass LCD Broken

My P9 EVA-L19 Glass LCD Broken
Hi
Unfortunately, my P9 EVA-L19 fall down and its glass LCD broken .
I purchased a replacement and I hope it works as original one.
http://www.witrigs.com/oem-lcd-with-digitizer-for-huawei-p9-gold
Good to know...
Cool story.
I have received the LCD replacement and I also installed it by my self.
So far so good
but I compare the new LCD with my friend P9 and I found there is slight difference in color.
but it is good for me.
Good congratulations
I bought an replacement lcd assy from germany.. after cursing with the replacement (mostly with the battery) i powered up the phone and noticed that swiping home screens worked only 1 time in 10..
Checked with the debug tools that touch location works perfectly.. but touch point size shows always zero, and the actual touch point size is displayed in the pressure
Can anything be done with the means of software, or is this gonna be a bad ebay review?
Sigh. What is wrong with these people. TEST BEFORE INSTALL. So you can send it back to warranty without issues and not leave a bad eBay review for a defective screen.
..
yes you have to TEST BEFORE INSTALL
I recommend this replacent so far
I had my screen broken last night, how's the A+++ screen replacements quality compared to factory one (JDI)?, in terms of responsiveness, quality, deep blacks, brightness. color calibration, etc, I'm very upset and worried about this and the fact that I may end up with something not on par in terms of quality...

I bought the LCD the OEM here, work and looks great. Don't know how to tell if it's OEM but everything seems as good as original. I also compared with other P9 and couldn't tell that mine was replaced.
I also bought a OEM battery to fix the suddenly shutting down problem at less than 50% charge, mainly when using camera. Seems fixed.

Hopefully one of you can help me
I currently have two huawei p9, wife's and sister in-laws, my wife is on her second screen already and needs to be replaced again.
The screens I found, cheap ones on eBay (lltrader I think) they don't look too bad at all.
First screen I replaced on my wife's was awful and the glue melted and the glass seperate and cracked within a week.
The second was from the seller I mentioned above, but she is a clumbsy woman.
So for this third one I am looking for for a glass screen protector, the problem is the replacement screens don't have the curved edges. So all the screen protectors for the position are too small or are designed to fit the curved edges...
Do any of you know a phone with very similar dimensions that I could try a screen protector from. I am sick of replacing screens now...

Infamous screen tearing :(

So my beloved ZE551ML which has 2½ years now has the infamous screen tearing, like found in a lot of thread like this one:
https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-67186-1-1.html
As it happens even in the first bootloader that displays the message that my device is unlocked, I know it's not a SW problem but HW one...
Does changing the LCD hard? has to play with glue and heatgun? Can I buy the LCD with the bezel of some kind so it'll be easier?
Or do I buy a new phone? LG G5 or something?

very first of all, i would suggest you to flash raw firmware with commands. and after first startup perform a factory reset. if the problem remain same. order a new LCD with frame from china.

Changing the screen is not terribly difficult. I've done it. There are several YouTube videos on how. Cost me about $20. And solved the problem.
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using Tapatalk
Yeah I saw the videos. I changed screen on Nexus7 (on two tablets, pain in the ass) and MotoG2, so I bought the zenfone2 screen with the frame, should take 10 minutes to change, no heat gun, no messy glue.

Smashed screen arrrgh

My phone whyred has always been in a case/screen protector since new
A couple of days ago my 4 yr old threw my phone violently and has smashed the screen :crying:
I can see on Aliexpress there are replacement screens for sale: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/For...09-47d6-b983-9f29fe68067d&transAbTest=ae803_4
I am based in the UK and this phone is not as popular as in India etc and there are not many places to get screen replaced
I have watched a few videos online, can this be done without all of the fancy machines?
For example do you really need a press? could you not just stick a heavyish book on the phone or is it just not possible
Clutching at straws I know
No, it doesn't work like that... if u want to replace just the glass.. you must have a UV lank to dry the glue..
I think he has to change the complete screen .
Did you look to the tuto on youtube ?
Just buy a new display and replace it. It is much easier but it costs a bit more. Make sure it comes with the frame as well.

I can see the complete display on Aliexpress
I replaced the display on my Redmi Note 3 pro and it was never the same again
The replacement displays are not a patch on the original
I may have to go down that road, is there no one who has attempted to replace the glass themselves?

It is very hard to do a glass-only repair. You have a 60-70% chance to break the display during the process
Broke my display, digitalizer and screen still intact only glass shattered.
As I live in Brasil, there is no trustworthy shop to replace screen.
Searching at aliexpress I saw lots of people complaining that screens are subpar to original.
Can someone recomment a place where I can buy an original replacement, or at least a good one?
My phone screen is "tianma td4310".

Hi, I bought 3 different OPO screen replacements at Aliexpress. As you said, the quality is so different. The first one was simply very pale and dark, the second one is the screen itself is OK, but touch screen and cable was so fragile. Te last one is completely fine. This is not the original, but if you just use it, you don't see the difference.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/One...l-With-Frame-Replacement-For/32449686228.html
They offer the screen with and without the frame. ( Some said with the frame is easier for the beginner) I myself bought a screen without the frame. then you may need a double side tape (2mm) like below.

You may have already replaced yours, but as other poster said, quality is a crap shot sometimes.
First one I bought from Amazon. Great packaging and looked great, but frame was 1mm to wide, so volume buttons were permanently depressed (so each reboot went to recovery). Returned that one.
Bought another from eBay here, frame is PERFECT size. Screen has a slightly blue hue, but not noticeable really. No tools come with this one, so you need a pry tool and screw drivers.
Word of caution, the internal antenna can break very easily if you are not VERY careful when disassembling. Additional antennas are here. I recommend getting a couple.
Hi! I need a replacement screen as well, because a stripe in the middle of mine stopped working.
After tons of research on Aliexpress i don't know which one to decide between these 2:
1) https://it.aliexpress.com/item/Orig...ml?spm=a2g0o.cart.99999999.259.30453c00U4QgqW
This one costs almost twice the others, but i contacted the seller and he said it's an original one (don't know how much i can trust him).
2) https://it.aliexpress.com/item/Tras...ml?spm=a2g0o.cart.99999999.259.30453c008Kl1tr
This one has same price as most of the other screens and has lots of good reviews, but i know it must be a clone.

I have attached screen samples. OPO original, low quality and good quality replacement from Aliexpress. I don't think that you will get the origianl OEM screen replacement from Aliexpress.
It seems that Replacebase (UK supplier) sells the OEM (original) screen replacement for OPO. I haven't tested this screen, but their OPO red battery is really great. (See XDA forum discussion)
