Is the fact that you can see the light from the bottom of the screen mean that the screen is uneven?

some people have this issue but im not sure if its as severe as in the image...
but mine seems to have a perfect screen
I think I'm having this issue.. where have you read about this?
I'm not sure about this problem, but I noticed that mostly users with Desire S from Asia have the screen popping issue. UK Desires seem to be fine.
From Asia here but no problem with the screen. I think it's random.
No screen mounting issues here on german Desire S.
On the picture it's a reflection on the metal edge.
Hi my first post on XDA but have been skulking about.
I'm in the UK and have had my DS 3 full days perfect no floors and set up with current OS and skinned.
Though day 4 bottom corners lifting by Home and Search keys and also have the smallest gap between unibody and screen near Volume rocker and touch keys, the gap is enough to see back light coming through in the dark/dusk.
Hope this helps i have a new replacement coming first thing tomorrow will report on that with any news.
Ok so brand new replacement handset and i still have these issues the bottom right corner is already showing that it's raised in comparison to the bottom left corner and there is still a visible gap on the left of the screen can see the charge port through this and light still shining through in the right light.
Looks like bad quality control from HTC will be contacting orange in a mo as i'm still in my cooling off period. I am really disappointed Android OS is great for the customisation but this handset seem's to have been rushed in the build quality.
Hope this helps.
I have a friend with this issue.Mine it's ok.
Greece.
Duplicate post sorry.

Hello all, i have myself an 02 XDA Exec, but during the light of a soft reset
the screen is now working with fault
it looks like there is some sort of high contrast or the in could be bleading on the inside, but the touch feature works, will display pictures
Notice how the screen has different shades, but also patches in the corners of the screen, as ive mentioned the touch sensetivity works fine but the screen looks to be a bit pixelated and and in a different sort of contrast (i am currently reading up on the dis-assembly of it so if its something internal please say something about it)
and no i havnt banged it, smashed it, tried beating it up etc, i honestly dont know whats happened to it.

this is my today screen after a hard reset, basic windows mobile default, look at the different tones of colouring, the sort of slashes across the screen and the shades in the corner of the screen, and im not sure why, although i dont think it really can be ink bleading as when the phone is turned off the screen is as it should be, just off.
Now i will try out the camera on both sides, from the phone and from my camera
Camera's Side
Notice how the screen is in a sort of negative/contrasted style, not one im enjoying thats for sure, but coming from the phone the results are different
Exec Camera
notice how the camera still processes the image properly
which leads me to believe something is wrong with the screen
maybe some part of the frame is being pressed against it or something like that
i will be monitoring this thread closely and please help
With Many Thanks
Exemike
Does it have this pink tint in reality too? (not only on the shots?)
If it does (and a hard reset doesn't help), then, one of the color transfer wires may be dead or have "only" developed a contact error (or, plainly, they have just been removed from their socket. This happened a lot with other models.)
That is, I'm pretty much sure it's a cheaply fixable problem. Try disassembling your casing and try to rearrange the wires.
pink/purple tint, but the screen apears in perfect shape
any guides on getting into the screen,
thanks very much.

there are several; see the "smashed my Universal screen" threads; some of them link in the official HTC disassembling guides
Hi i have to change the touch panel due to a big scratch,anyone here know if i have to disassembly all the phone?Or else someone with a service manual?
My phone was out in the rain for a bit so my digitizer is all messed up. Only thing I can do is touch the bottons on bottom. Not much function in the touchscreen besides that. Have ordered a new digitizer and will hopefully get it by the weekend or next week. Can report back how it goes with the disassembly or have you already done yours? Please give a report on how to do it if that's the case.
I m still waiting for mine from hong kong.look s like someone else had changed the syntetizer in the forum,but i had no reply to my question
Ok. I guess we'll have to wait and see who gets his first. Whoever does though it would be nice with a report on how it went.
Hi i ve received the touch panel,but i tried to disassembly the phone,but i can not get the cover to open.I unscrewed the 5 screws on the rear but the cover is as strong as before.Have you ever tried to disassembly our phone?
And the touchscreen i received it s not the new one but the old engineering example,i think it s the same but i want to try the respone so i can give the seller the positive or negative feedback.The panel differ from the classic one for the acer logo on top right,not at the bottom center,and...there is the trasparent hole near the headphone for the front camera as you can see from this old sample picture

And this is mine
I read in the screen replacement forum. There are two more screws at the left and right sides of battery house.
Hope that helps. The guy in hongkong that sent me the digitizer sent it by registered air mail first but sent another one by EMS so hopefully i'll have it this week.
Ok i ve found the way by myself,it s not so difficult,i ve seen the two screws after...You have only to pay attenction to not force too much the plastics when you try to open the cover and when you try to detach the touch panel.The best way is to use a guitar plectrum and start to open from the bottom right,for the touch you have to go carefully.Now i ask in the forum if they need a guide with high res photos,because i ve taked pictures with my nokia n95
Well I would be really interested in seeing the pictures. Please do share. How's the new touchscreen working out ?
You can see my guide in the general section,maybe will be sticked.The panel is working good,but it seems a little less sensitive than the official oem one.Maybe the engineering sample is a little different.In plus the light from the touch keys is not diffused good,and i have an hole for the front camera,wich is not present in retail s200.But if you go to the guide you can see pictures
I have now changed my digitizer and thanks to your guide it went pretty smooth. Was done in about 10-15 mins. I got the oem one but the buttons on the bottom is diffuse as you said yours was. maybe i can move the white from the old one to make it nices. Probably won't bother though. Don't really find a difference in response from before the change.
Hi XDA! convolution here with another review on a product. This time, it's a privacy screen protector:
http://www.tmart.com/Privacy-Screen-Protector-for-LG-Nexus4-E960_p171644.html
I actually just wanted a normal screen protector, but I didn't read carefully when I ordered the product, so when I opened the package, I was really surprised that it was a privacy screen protector. Pictures are below. It comes with one small microfiber pad, and one screen protector:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
RIGHT: WITH PROTECTOR
LEFT: WITHOUT PROTECTOR
The screen protector affects the screen color and brightness a tiny tiny bit when you look at it straight on, but one gets use to it really quickly. If you tilt the screen 35°-40° left or right along the vertical axis, you will not be able to see the screen anymore. I actually had a man comment about how he was trying to look at my phone but couldn't, even though clearly he could see me texting away. He was standing about a meter away on the train at the time.
So I guess bottom line is, if you're a girl who gets creeped on all the time by guys, you will definitely want to get this. If you want to watch porn on your cell on public transportation, get this. If you like sharing the screen with friends, you would want a maximum viewing angle, and this is definitely not for you.
this can be useful if it can be peeled off and reapply again... which is what the product cover seem to suggest?
Hmm screen protector to have bad viewing angles ! See people not everyone wants good viewing angles ( Sonyhaters)
i ordered the exact same one, got two both have dents. screen protector is not perfectly clear of bubbles. very thick and indeed very bad viewing angles (well it is called privacy protector).
Is it normal for the screen to like this after applying the screen protector? Or should it disappear after some time?
I just got my Nexus 5 in the mail and have some questions about its screen
First, what's the material used for the screen?
Second, is anyone having some serious yeloow hue going on with their screens????
I own both the Z1 and the N5 now and will decide to sell one off in the near future. The Z1 was notorious for their yellow hue screen and comparing the N5 side to side with the Z1 the N5 is even worse when it comes to the yellow hue. Can anyone else confirm?
Want to post a side by side comparison pic but the only cameras I own are on the phones haha

Do a search on the forum, there are a number of threads about the yellow tint. Some N5s have it, some don't.

Finally got around to taking a photo with my friend's 5S
On the left is the N5 and Z1 on the right.
The yellow hue is definately more noticable when viewing screens with slight hints of blue
The comparison of both white screens came out decent in the photo with slight yellow on the N5 but in person it's much worse. (keep in mind my Z1 already has a yellow hue problem)
Definately feel like my N5 has serious screen issues I will contact Google and see what they have to say

Yes, it's very difficult to photograph the issue because the device used to make the photos has its own impact. I've found that you can take whatever the photo shows and multiply it by a few times to get a real indication of the difference.

This used to be a lot easier with a SLR... haha
I have had the nexus 5 for about 6 months now, and i'm starting to notice a part of the glass coming off. The area around the volume buttons to the center of the screen makes a sticking sound when pushed down on, and i can feel it pushing in a little bit. It's most noticeable on the edge directly next to the volume buttons. There are no visible cracks as far as i can tell. Phone works fine besides this. Should I be worried and replace the screen or just let it be? I don't notice it if i don't push down too hard.
Never had this happen to me on a phone before. Thanks!
That definitely shouldn't be happening.
Mind sharing a photo?
Freshly baked from my Nexus 5

It's not very visible and pictures don't show the problem.
It feels like the glue in that area is just dried up in that area and isn't holding down the screen correctly. but its only a small area so right now its not too big of a deal.

Ask for google support, they will replace it. Mine was losing the back cover letters and google replaced it
Hi all. Wasn't sure if I should reply to this old thread or start my own...
I have a Nexus 5 that's over 2 years old. So no warranty. It looks like my screen is starting to come off in the bottom right corner. I think it's just the glass. Take a look at the attached pic/video and let me know what you think I could/should do. You can see I can move it by pressing on it.

It works fine otherwise. Touch/display etc seems all fine. I don't care about this problem if it stays as-is, but I'm worried it will get worse and come off further.
I'm thinking a bit of super glue would do? .
Thinking the same…
