Just got my unit today and love it.
Only notice a soft sparkle (like when you splash water on any LCD screen) but it's very soft and only noticeable at certain angle.
quick call to friend who has HD2, same problem.
anyone else have that problem ?
it is not a problem, it's how this capacitive display is built. at certain angle You will also notice a grid of lines and tiny dots.

It sounds to me like you've noticed the grid in the screen. This is part of the capacitive screen design, and not a fault or issue. It's there on everyone's phone, but as you've obviously seen, it's so unnoticable normally that you just forget about it.
Is it that, or something else?
Edit:
Or you could you read the post above
just curious, how come I didn't notice it on iphone ? lower screen resolution + smaller screen ?

I couldn't say why you didn't notice it, but it is there.

I noticed this small shadows at the screen bottom especially at all white screen.
Try to do a screen alignment to see it....I tried 2 HTC sets and it's the same.
The hermes screen is NOT like this...they are perfectly clean !!!
Anyone has noticed this ?
Ya, I noticed this too.
I can only notice it on all white screens. The shadow is uneven and wavey and seems to extend upwards for about 5 pixels.
Sorry no solutions from me... just confirmation.
Me too. Another thing that I noticed is that the screen is fisically slightly too much aligned to the left.

Yep, mine too. I think that they are all like that. I've heard of this issue in another thread as well.
The shadow on mine one isnt that bad, tbh, you have to really pay attention to notice the shadow.
The screen is very slightly aligned too far to the left, but it doesn't really bother me.
i have applied the de-sensitive cab but when i use my finger to press down and drag selections, i can never be precise .. the screen starts to "shiver" around like Jack from the Titanic ...
hmmm is there any tweak to reduce this?
BTW, do i need to align the screen regularly?
thanks!!!
appreciate any help on this
I too have the same problem. I have read the other exhaustive thread on screen problems but couldn't come to a conclusion. Is this a software issue or hardware fault?
Do you mean the built in tactile feedback vibration where the screen buzzes to let you know it's been touched?
Settings/Personalise/Vibration/and then uncheck the box
Try the screen sensitivity reducing tips, or better still use BSBtweaks, it has a toggle to reduce sensitivity that works.
also, i found being too gentle with my fingertip makes it juddery. a firm press with the pad of teh finger works better for me than the tip.
I align my screen after any hard reset / rom flash.
i had this issue too, it appeared suddenly a few days after i upgraded the radio on my previous rom. with the current combination everything is in place now.
I would say it is a hardware fault. My first HD2 was perfect with no screen sensitivity issues. Unfortunately, it was accidentally damagaed and I had to replace it. The replacement unit did suffer from the sensitivity issue and although the sensitivity fix improved things substancially, it it still wasn't anywhere near as good as my original unit. So it went back to the store and they game me a replacement which I am happy to say doesn't have the sensitivity issue and is a joy to use again.
The new unit does however have an uneven backlight but I'll probably live with that as it's the lesser of two evils!
omg why cant they built it right one time!
Are you guys using a screen protector?
I used to have perfect screen behaviour. Recently, I saw the multitude of cheap 3 for $x screen protectors, and tested about 8 different brands.
Some were pure crap, didn't prevent fingerprints or oil...
The mirror ones and some clear ones killed sensitivity!!! Made my touches jump all over, my presses inaccurate.
Some matt screen protectors were too thin and were absolutely useless (and easy to scratch).
Only a few were good enough not to cause a problem.
Can only suggest you try remove the screen protector if you encounter the same issue.
Cheers
Unfortunately this is a known problem:

Getting the device changed has helped to reduce this in some cases.

i was trying out the iphone, i noticed
iphone screen is matte.. no stickiness if sweat and swipe is smooth..
hd2 glossy if you sweat, you get friction... swipe depends on friction
if i were to put a matte screen protector, maybe it helps? anyone knows about this?
IPhone 3gs and HTC Hero both have an oleophobic coated screen which greatly reduces fingerprints and smudges. HD2 does not. Don't know why HTC don't use this tech on all of their capacitve screens.
ok i used a matte screen protector... result = smoother flicks and less finger prints.. but shivers is MORE...
hmmm what is wrong with our screen? * i tried iphone... NO ERRORS in typing..
could it be our software compensation for errors is screwed? u know as in the software is predicting the center of the finger wrongly

all people i know has this issue i think it is software htc is not a fool company to release all devices defected
and i wonder why they take so long to fix it..
i have this strange backlight problem since i bought my HD2. At the bottom you can see it in the pics attached. any one having the same issue?
no pic attached
sorry its my first attempt at posting pics. corrected.
It's not a backlight "problem", you're simply looking at the backlight LEDs that you can just about notice from that particular angle. Perfectly normal.

Do you mean that all capacitive screens have this? i had before an HTC HD with a resistive screen and didn't notice those LEDS.
yeah its just a slight bit of backlight bleeding and then the leds you can see as posted above. This is normal for led backlights and is certainly not as bad on the hd2 as it has been on other phones/lcd screens.
isnt that a ccfl?
i'm sure, the hd2 hasnt got a led backlight!.
got it too
DN41
As others have said thats perfectly normal.
You can see it on almost any backlight device. Even TVs at the right angle!

Capacitive / resistive doesn't affect that, it's a layer put above the actual LCD module. The LEDs are INSIDE that module. But some module types will have it more noticeable than others. Anyway, they're made to be viewed within a "normal" angle, who would watch his screen so much from the side...
Already think a moment on how clever these LED-backlit screens are designed... now you have seen where the LEDs are, all on one single screen edge (and the short one to make it more difficult), and how perfectly even they manage to light the entire screen surface with that... the light guide sheet assembly under the LCD is amazing.
All phones with color screens have used LED backlight, CCFL was just too huge for phones.
Hello, I change the screen to my Z and I have this problem.
I noticed the screen flicker when you touch or press the edges of the screen / phone. It's like if you increase the intensity of light.
The display properly reacts to the pressure of the fingers, sliding screen keyboard ...
What can happen? The screen? I open it?
The 2 Connectors of the screen with the board?
Thanks
are you using auto light? if yes try to disable it
I'm guessing it's an issue with the connections. Are you using too much pressure on the screen? I've never seen that happen on mine.

I think this is, I will dismantle it and see what happens.
Repair fail !!
Well I'm back to open the Z and I've broken the screen.
I get those lines and a black spot. 25 euros lost.
I hope it's only the screen and the digitizer.
this happened to me now i cant get anything but the lowest brightness
if you have the same as me its not the screen i think its the cable but i cant find a cheap replacement to test it plus i am thinking of going to the droid 4 if/when it gets its gsm update
Did you manage to fix the problem with your Desire Z screen, I had exactly the same problem after replacing the LCD. I took it apart and put it back together again & again but couldn't find what was causing it.
I think when you take the screen out the first time, you remove that clear glue stuff, and probably make it slightly loose. So what I did was take some of them sticky labels for printing. With a scalpel cut some very thin strips (about 2mm in width and almost the full length of each side), folded them into an L shape and stuck them aroud the 3 edges of the LCD, before sinking it into the housing and the problem is fixed.
Just in case I've not explained that very well, here is a really bad diagram.

Merci all
i have broken my screen (touch amoled, all the screen) and i bought another one from ebay
looks original and arrived in a samsung service pack box
this new display have something strange in colors when the backlight is low, looks like...don't know how to explain but the colors are not perfect as they were with the factory screen...somehow a little bit green (always when light is low)
anyway sometimes now, like one time every week, after i while i'm using it, the screen go crazy and when i touch it, i see (developer, show touch dots) random touch around my fingers
some days ago this problem happened when i was in a call, me and my interlocutor, we heard a strange noise like bzzzzzrbrbzbrbrbzzzz when i was touching the screen, so there was the touch crazy problem and some strange noise when i was touching the screen
a reboot and everything is ok for some day....
i hope you had understood my poor english
opinions? what can i do? :crying:
ps. i have a 9506
It's probably a fake screen. That would explain your color problem and touch problem.

the screen resolution is correct and with high backlight the colors are perfect, looks like original on the front and on the back
how to check if it's fake?
