I have a sensation that needs a new LCD panel. I'm pretty sure it came with an AUO and I would like to replace it with a Sharp panel. Has it ever been done before?

I don't think so l. I have read posts saying that you have to use a certain screen depending on the one you had or the screen will become laggy and unresponsive when replaced.

Does that go for the LCD panel itself or just the Digitizer? Im having a hard time finding out how to tell what type a LCD is before I buy it. They should have printed either Sharp or AUO on the back of it so it would be obvious to buyers lol.

Am I the only one that doesn't have the affect?
People with the sharp screens don't have it some people say they don't have it on the Acer screens this is **** I hope this can be fixed by software but I doubt it...

I may be totally losing my mind but I think rebooting the phones a few times has fixed the problem a lot just throwing it out there

This debate (which I just replied to in the General forum) reminds me of exactly what my Nexus S display looked like after the Gingerbread update from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3.. Lighter, less rich colors. However, after the update to 2.3.4, the colors were SPOT ON and solid.
Also it was not all nexus with the problem. I see them doing an update to fix the color temperatures like they did on the Nexus S

I have an AUO (Acer) panel and I don't have the lines as far as I can tell. The only problem I have is the flickering/ghosting effect when there's white text on black backgrounds.
I have the Acer screen and mine is so grainy that my text looks like the text from the original Nintendo games.. seriously this is horrible!

Have an AUO panel and I haven't noticed any of the grainy lines...so far.
AUO screen, haven't had a reboot in over a week of owning it. Should be getting a sharp as a replacement because this AUO has a smudge underneath the gorilla glass. Will do some comparisons and post them. In the meantime to make this thread more meaningful, the people who have this issue should post their box date and the date in the inside of the back cover.
Having an AUO I did notice some lines on the status bar as well as the icons. As I said I will have a Sharp tomorrow and will post some indepth comparisons.

I'm not doubting you at all, but how do you know you are for sure getting a Sharp?

Has XE edition same manufacturers?
Follow the guide below than post your value!

With the My Touch 4g I'm sure you MT4G users will remember the good screen/bad screen issue. Where one lcd panel was made by sony, and the other was made by sharp. The Sharp lcd screen would wash out more on an angle than the sony. I have read some people speculate that the sensation might have the same "issue"
It has been confirmed that the Sensation has two different LCD panels. One made by Acer (AUO) and one made by sharp. The sensation does not have a good screen bad screen issue. Some people prefer the acer screen and others prefer the sharp. I have had both and they both are really beautiful displays. You can only really tell the difference if they are side by side.
To find out which panel you have:
Use terminal emulator (free from the market) and run the command dmesg (root is not needed obviously)
it will output a bunch of stuff.. look for this line and report it: (if you can't find it you can long press on the output in terminal emulator copy all and then paste it into an email and send it to yourself)
just look for the line (the numbers might not be the same) [ 9178.895111] Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_??????
Mine is sharp so my line is Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_SHARP
If you have searched and can't find reboot and try again.
Pics I took of the two side by side:
AUO on left/top Sharp on right/bottom:

Acer, ghosting and slight screen flicker. In the middle of dealing with htc UK over the issue. Telling me to try a factory reset.... Jesus! My friend has a sharp screen on his and it looks perfect to me.

Let me know how you get on.
Mine one is AUO_NT.....& it's Damn Awesome
Most Europe and US Edition are AUO
Most Asia Edition are Sharp
Kazi639, No ghosting? Try settings > wireless networks and scroll up and down. Mines looks horrible when I do this. It's only really noticeable on black background.

AUO isn't bad. Neither display is perfect they both have their pros and cons.
Mine is Sharp,white Sensation XE bought in Europe
I had both, and I like both. Suo has brighter colors and the actual display is more bright as well.
Sharp, is more sharp but it's brightness is much lower.
So both have Pros and Cons like Sdobron said.

OK, because I've only had the phone 28 days t-mobile are sending me a replacement. Just need to cross my fingers that it has a sharp screen. If t-mobile didn't change it htc UK were willing to look at it and change the screen if "the engineer agrees the screen is faulty".
My friend has the xe with a sharp screen, I will make a video with them side by side to highlight the difference and post a link here.

hi Iv cracked the screen on my htc desire S . does anyone have any details or
instructions on replacing it. or is it a case of going bk to the the carrier 02 ..
How did you crack it?
If you still have warranty, contact HTC and they could replace it for you if it wasn't self inflicted.

What do you class as self inflicted and accidental? Sorry for butting in but I'm curious as anything could be said to be accidental?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
Sorry, i mean accidental
Like the screen cracked when you didn't self inflict it (drop it)
Happened to me before on my old phone! Didn't touch it or anything...
Tool it out my pocket later, and it had a cracked screen

If you replace the screen yourself could you post a photo of the board directly under the screen. I'd like it as a wallpaper I think it would look cool. Sorry can't help with replacing the though

So I just got my new sensation today and straight away ive flashed rcmix sense 3.6 but now ive started to use it ive noticed the screen has a really bad green tint on the screen
Just to make sure I put it side by side with my dhd and noticed a huge difference, the dhd screen is miles better, the sensation screen looks green and washed out
Should I just send it back or am I missing something here?

I tried earlier roms and ics and hated it, really bad color reproduction, defo grabbing a new one lol
if you just hate the blue tint when you are using a ics sense3.6 rom, take a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497740
I had one that went bad a week ago, it wasn't from rooting it but it was from taking the battery out rapidly in a matter of a few seconds. I got a new screen though luckily through warranty for free ;P.
Well in the end I went through 2 contract phones and looked at 8 second hand ones before I found the one I have now which is a sharp screen and it looks great :-D
As for the earlier suggestion about rcmix, I had the same color issues with a stock rom
Hello People... Yesterday my htc sensation 4g died :silly: then i found Out that it was Not dead because i got a call... So the only Thing Thats wrong is the lcd Screen... So to come back to my question can i use the lcd from sensation "G14" for my sensation 4g, and is it possible that the graphics card is broken and Not the lcd Screen ??? Sorry for my Bad englisch :laugh::laugh:
Thanks :cyclops:
people please answer i must buy that screen .. i'm using a wildfire s if u know what i mean xD

I'd say the odds of the screen breaking would be far greater than those of the Adreno failing. In fact, I've never heard of anyones mobile's gpu being broken, whereas I've come across countless of cases of broken screens etc.
As far as I know there is no difference between the screens, but if you get an XE screen, you'll end up with red buttons. Furthermore, the screens are apparently manufactered by two different companies, being Acer and Sharp. This won't affect the compatibility, however. Source
ohh thanks now i can sleep again best forum ever
