The apps aren't working at all, any possible ways other than that? Thanks

I've had luck with tapping LCD monitors to get some pixels unstuck but I guess that won't work on a screen behind glass! Some warranties do cover dead pixels. I guess you could try that route?
I have that option but of like to not. Thnks

The HTC One X has a LCD, a liquid crystal display. The black is the liquid moving around. If it cracks the black will leak under the surface like ink. Stop pressing so hard. I think all lcd screens do this if you press hard enough.
Well this didnt happen on desire, lg nitro which has lcd
This phone is designed differently, the LCD is fused to the digitizer so there is no space between them
So when you're pressing you're actually pressing through the digitizer onto the screen

So, I dropped my phone and it didn't crack or anything but when the screen turns on it starts slowly turning really light with colorful lines depending on what colors are on the screen. It's still useable, but really annoying. What needs to be replaced to fix this, I'm thinking it's the LCD, but I want to be sure before I buy it and that's not what it is. Thanks ahead of time.
It sounds like an LCD issue. I work at a phone repair shop, we would test that first. Buy from gounlock.com or repairsuniverse.com or a top rated seller on eBay and you should be able to return it. Plus the part us cheap if I remember correctly. If its not the LCD it might be chip damage. Also make sure nothing got disloged and is pressing on the LCD.

Thank you, I don't know if this helps but the brighter the screen is the faster it does it. If it's darker, it almost looks like it's fine and then very slowly spreads down the screen.
NP. The LCD has more than just the LCD. There is also circuitry. While the LCD may actually be fine if that's damaged you'll need to replace the whole thing. Sounds more like that to me. Phone LCDs are NOT forgiving unfortunately.
Remember watch a few videos and go slow when doing the repair. Its fun but you can trash any device if your not careful. Also be organised with the parts and screws they are usually all different and HTC devices are among the most complicated.

Are you saying an LCD display screen replacement, or a whole new phone?

Just the lcd should be fine. I was saying there is a bit of stuff on the lcd part if you damage might cause the issues you describe. I think youll be ok. Good luck and have fun.

I have one or two maybe even three pieces of a spec of dirt or may be a pixel. I'm leaning more towards dirt because with any screen color test the dots always remain the same color. Black. They don't change. And they aren't green or white etc. Always remain black.... Help?

I know it would be kindof difficult but is there any way you can post pictures? But honestly it doesnt really matter which it is to be honest. I recomend just asking for an RMA from Google.
Is it possible to RMA later months from now for the same reason? I'd rather wait for quality control to get better or a newer batch. Unless I got like ten bad pixels
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
the Nexus 5 comes with a 1 year warrenty so waiting a few months to RMA should not be a problem.
Yeah i figured as much. I just hope to RMA maybe sometime 2014, rather wait and see if it gets worse. Or remains the same. One or two pixels even three depending on location no big deal. But if I have 5-10 or more by then... I'd want to swap out for a revised not defective device from Google. However at this moment with them rushing these out. Playing the RMA game isn't worth it.

Dead pixels are black. Stuck pixels are any colour but black!

Update. So what I thought was 3-4 dead pixels turns out to be pieces of dirt under the screen. And I bet majority of people mistake these for dead pixels.... Way to tell easy is to turn some bright lights on. Make sure your screen is spotless. And turn it on and find the dead pixel on the screen. Turn it off then turn it all different ways to find the dirt under the display which you think is a dead pixel..
I'm kind of relieved to find out its only dirt. I'd rather have dirt then dead pixels. I'm weird. But whatever

still going to eventually request an RMA or are you just living with em?
For now living with it. Because its only dirt. Maybe RMA in the future if it really bothers me. The dirt still sucks. But I'm happy its not like dead pixels..

yup, their price is higher, but the quality will tell you it's worthy
@m$m
It's still an OEM (even with higher quality than the cheap ones) and not the original one.
I have just broken my phone screen, please feel my pain.
Is there a way to over-ride the 'Touch screen disabled' prompt? I've already missed two calls fumbling for buttons.
Regards.

Hi Mostar088,
I am in the UK. I am sure you didn't mean to rub salt into the wound of my 3 month 20 day (when the screen broke) old phone [emoji22] .
I had left the original screen protector on, just as well as this is now holding the screen together.
Choice I have now is to buy a replacement screen, and fit it myself, or stump £150 for someone else to repair. The taredowns I've seen make me think that the Mate 9 is more fiddly than a Nexus 5, which I have replaced a screen on.
My assumption here is Huawei will be the slowest and most expensive option. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
To answer my original question, should anyone else be asking the same, go to Setting > Smart Assistance > Touch-disabled mode.
I didn't think I had set this previously, and this 'feature' only appeared when the screen cracked. The bulk of the screen damage is just under the speaker grill and over the proximity sensor. The damage must now be confusing the sensor.
