Information Sharing For Your Moto Droid 2

questions first:
does your phone always display white or deadlock when you are playing games, surfing onlines or something else? does yoour moto droid 2 give no responce no matter how many times you touch the screen? does you spot that battery of your moto droid 2 is draining?
if so, the problem might exits in your Droid 2 LCD digitizer screen. let me explain in details.
there are two versions available in the market:
one is manufacured by the OEM factory , this kind of digitizer features a very good and stable performance, and can support you with a wonderful enjoyment with your droid 2. besides it do nearly no harm to your phone so that your phone has a long lifespan.
the other version is not as good as the OEM digitizer of cource. generally the digitizer screen and the LCD flex cable are two seperate parts, they are adhered together by a machine after have been purchase from the market. so, the disadvantage of this digitizer screen is quite obvious: poor performance, harmness to your phone and short lifespan...
how about your moto droid 2?

Atrix 2 has a Yellow Display?

Hi all .. ! I moved from Defy to Galaxy S2 then to Atrix 2 and so far i noticed the three have different displays. As far as i know, there is probaly 2 types of displays. The Blue Displays, common in AMOLED, and the Yellow display. Is that true? Because i could notice a very big difference. GS2 has a more blueish tinted display while the A2 is more yellowish, nly noticeable in White/grey backgrounds. I took a look at the defy and colors looks normal, it gets solved with screen adjuster, but with it other problems arrives..! I think that this is a normal thing.. But disappoints me.. Main reason by wich i bought it is the Display, i love qHD 4.3 LCD with Normal RGB , i like more 720p displays, of course, but this was what i was looking for.. if this is a faulty display then i should move and ask for another one may be.. what do you say guys? have you noticed that comparing to others displays?

I think the superoled displays on all the samsung's have a yellowish display. That said in a week with any display it will look normal to you.

Actually the SuperAmoleds that the sammys have are a blueish tint, not yellowish... the a2 has a slight yellowish tint that has been noted here before and like you said it seems to sort of disappear with more use though.

I was just saying that you will get use to any phone you get. I'm thinking of getting a SGSII. The only other android I've had was the G1. There's so many rom's for them that you could flash a new one everyday for a year. I thought all androids were like that. I'll never get moto again.
Sorry for my rant.

Oh I loved my G1... I have had so many androids it is not funny.. I still have my tellus hero that I used on ATT. that has been my backup for a good number of years now.
Yeah you can get an sgs 2 for pretty cheap and they have the real Cyanogenmod and jelly bean/ CM10 will be on the sgs 2 soon enough.

Galaxy SII is a very good device! I still have it as my main phone. The only things i dislike of SGS2 is the screen, the quality of the plastic, its super light weight and its too thin. I lile heavy and good loking premium devices.. thats why i bought my A2 and love it. Jim you are right.. its getting normal with the time.. I wish Oficial ICS OTA comes out soon.. Our phone will be amazing even more than now. Motos ics updates are awesome.. so close to stock android.. thanks to the hardware of a2 we'll enjoy a similar performance as in Galaxy Nexus.

Yeah, no doubt about it. When do you think that Moto will update our Phone to Jellybean? Maybe Q3 of 2013 when Android 5 is released? By now with ICS i would be pleaced.

I bought A2 from USA n m stayin in India

You guys are scaring me!! I thought i have a good eye sight!!
anyways tested my A2 with Display testerfrom the google play and i didnt see any yellow tint..

Yeah its really yellow compared to AMOLED, but id rather have a yellow screen any day over a pentiled blue one, haha.

Is the Atrix 2 really not a pentile display? From my understanding it's the same LCD in the Photon and DROID Bionic (connector and dimensions are all the same). If so, I might have to get an Atrix 2 display and put it in my Bionic. I got my wife an Atrix 2 yesterday and did notice that the colors were a little bit better.

Engadget says this:
First, while both Atrix devices (Atrices?) take advantage of qHD displays with 960 x 540 resolution, the newer one looks better despite having a larger display to hold the same number of pixels in. This is mainly because HelloMoto opted not to use the Pentile matrix scheme, which is something that the company has elected to do on most of its qHD screens -- including the first Atrix and the Droid Bionic.

Definitely not Pentile in the Atrix 2. That was the main reason that I returned my Atrix 1 on day 29- I couldn't un-see the screen door effect.
Let us know how that bionic screen swap goes, if you end up trying it.
The Atrix 2's screen is more "warm white" than it is yellow per se. Whenever I see my friend's amoled phone I'm stunned at how blue cold the color is.
Me: "Is it supposed to look like that?"
Friend: "Like what?"

Yeah you are right friend i can also see the display yellowish when a see anything white in it. I think its normal. But have u saw that when u lock the screen and see it under light, the screen looks blurry. Please try and tell me

I have an Atrix 2 display at work, so I'll try it today as long as I have the time. I'll take pictures.

Hmmm...it must be that they actually sent us a DROID Bionic display instead, because it still shows the pentile effect. I had actually tested the screen (without close examinations) in an Atrix 2 before, so the screens are interchangeable at least.

Yeah, just a little bit, the yellowish tint all over white/grey background doesnt bothers me at all, i just thought i had a defect in the display, i examinated it closely the day i bought the A2 to see if there is something wrong with it to take it to the seller in case that something is wrong. Hey guys, am i the only one who check for updates everyday after work? Lol, damn, i want official ICS in my Atrix!

Hmmm, the Bionic, The first Atrix and the Photon, also the Razr, Razr Maxx, Droid 3, Droid 4, have Pentile Matrix Layer, its a RGBW Layer, wich is Thinner i guess, so i think it won't work, you can try if you want.. here is something interesting to read about Pentile

It will work (at least a Bionic/Photon LCD does work on the Atrix 2).

[Q] I'm a newbie, and my LCD Screen broke.

Hello Guys!
2 Weeks ago, someone sat over my tablet, and broke me LCD screen. Just the LCD.
I've read a lot about it, but i'm still confused. Is there any incompatible LCD, or it's just the Digitizer?
I live at Brazil, and need to import a new screen. My first shot need to be the correct one ($56 just for shipping!).
Also, what do you think about this screen? ebay.com/itm/US-OEM-Asus-Eee-Pad-Transformer-TF300-TF300T-LCD-Display-Replacement-Parts-Rev1-/151041644182[/url]

So far as I can tell, it's only the digitizer that's giving problems. I haven't heard anyone complain about the LCD compatibility. If n doubt, you should choose a vendor that accepts returns. They may charge a bit more, but for your peace of mind I think it's a few bucks well spent.

Screen size

So who is disappointed they reduced the screen size to a reported 5.5 inches?
Its now G3 with a curve and better processor.
Very disappointing, i was really looking forward to a 6" screen and ext sd support..would have been perfect.
That said they will probably lock the Bootloader anyway!

I am also disappointed with the larger bezel size. Wish they could keep the 6in display but shrink the bezel a bit to achieve a smaller footprint.

Screen size of the device only disappointment for me. .

Thats what I expected to happen also, seems the went the wrong way..bigger bezels and smaller screen.

I like the six inch screen on my OG Flex but 5.5 isn't to bad either. I love how I can drop my flex and it doesn't break the screen. Dang near indestructible but reading that the flex 2 is even more durable definitely makes up for the reduction in screen size

I'm not that disappointed by the screen size. 5.5 ain't that bad at all they're just trying to gain more customers so to me even though i have big hands screen size is great especially with the specs it has. I'm definitely getting this device just hope that there's root for atleast i don't care much about changing roms and such but if it's available i wouldn't mind neither.

Lol, the reduction to 5.5 is awesome for me. 6" is just too big for me, 5.5 is a little bigger than I want, but doable. Flex 2 is at the top of my list now.

I loved the orig Gflex but only 32gb of storage was a deal breaker for me. I figured LG would provide expandable storage on the 2nd version so ive been anticipating it.
Def want a bigger screen than on my notes and now looks like a nexus 6 will be what i end up with...even though it also lacks an ext sd card which i dont like.
Man LG why couldnt you just add the storage and call it a day lol.if its not broken dont fix it!

Well it was broken lol, they barely had any audience on that first G Flex and even though yea the curved helped out a bit so one could have a good hold on it that phone was still too big. I have big hands but my flex was constantly falling out of my pockets when I'm entering a car or when I'm even at the gym.
Gotta understand 5.5 ain't that bad and yea 6 is a nice size but 5.5 is the sweet spot I'm just glad they didn't go smaller then that because then it would have been a deal breaker for me and i do also hope that development is much better in this one then the last.

The Flex 2 I believe has an Micro SD slot. It's right above the SIM tray. I saw the Micro SD logo on the inside of the back cover right next to the SIM tray. Definitely considering the device but I'm looking for something with a lot of developer support.

Yes it does indeed, good that they added that feature it was needed badly.
Hopefully there will be better development on this version but LG already has a 5.5" inch device out so people may not bother with the GF2.
The bigger screen on the orig is what set it apart from the G2 at the time but then again the orig didnt sell very well lol.
Time will tell.

It appears to me the specs are enough better than the G3 that the flex 2 might have a shot at developer support against that, even with the same screen size. I'm more concerned that devs will hold out for the G4 though.

I would assume that LG will continue their anti development trend of locking the bootloader again.
This will def hinder development until a workaround is sorted out. I was bent on getting a G3 the day it was released as i loved my G2 but the locked BL absolutely killed it for me here in Canada.

Sadly this does seem to be a continuing trend...

People complain about big phones until they get one. Don't knock it until you try a 6inch phone. The nexus 6 is smaller than the HTC max and the exact same size as the og gflex flex. Wish the flex2 screen was bigger but I'll stay with my nexus 6 I can't go smaller than 6inches two handed or not it's just really nice to have all that screen

I love the 5.5 inch display
