Hello all,
I've had my TF700 repaired because of the glass imperfection on my screen - there was a barely visible line running across the glass and I could feel it with my fingernail.
When the repair shop returned my device (it was a certified ASUS shop, and the repair was done under warranty), I noticed that the touch grid is clearly visible under incident lighting of the screen, whereas I cannot recall having seen this grid on my original screen! I have returned the device back to the repair because they scratched the bottom of the case, but would like to make sure there is one and only one possible screen they could have built into my TF700 and that this screen has a visible touch grid. I am a bit skeptical because the device was with the repair shop for over a month and the reason for the delay in repair was explained by them that they "first received a screen with no touch (?) and then they had to order a new one (?!)". Very much puzzling.
Any photos of your screen would be highly appreciated (and also part numbers if anyone knows/has repair manuals for the TF700. My serial No begins with C6OKAS).
cheers, K

I've had 4 infinities and on all of them you can see the grid under the right lighting conditions.
From an angle and/or with specific lighting, yes.

Hi guys,
About 3 weeks ago I noticed that in certain light, I could see a grid of dots, starting from 5mm from each side of the screen. These dots were arranged in some a regular pattern, so I assummed it was screen sensors, that I had not see before.
However last week, I noticed this same area was now becoming strangely colored. Its difficult to explain, but viewing the screen at an angle or in certain light, that area of the screen looks like the screens plama is leaking. Its similar to if you put a drop of clear oil between the screen protector and the screen itself. This is definatly occuring on the internal part of the screen. So im going to call up HTC this week, and if they request me to send it back, do I need to un-hard-spl the phone? If so how do I do this?
Thanks
I had similar issue with my old Himalaya in the past. It seems like an oil spot between surfaces under specific angle. Now I have another problem with screen on my Rafi-Some blue 'clouds' visible all the time after accident with my car(I lost my phone with case on the parking place and someone-maybe me also drove very closely around it,so the device is just a little bit damaged,but not so much).
I have same problem on my Touch Pro, but my seller say to me this fabrication problem...not important problem...but its very distrubity

I faced this problem in Touch dual before, and the screen was replaced in warranty.
now i've the same in my TP, but this time it clearly decreased the touch screen sensitivity...
i'd say go for replacement.
I encountered the newton's ring problem-term given to me by a HTC staff. I got the handset from O2 but they seemed clueless about this. The problem is that it disappears and then re-appears randomly. Third time I have seen it. I have also encountered the 'oil spill' effect under specific lighting. I can't see it anymore though.
Will drop into an O2 shop asap.

my Fuze has this oil spill effect too.. going to try to put it in a bag of desiccant overnight to see if its just moisture
I have this weird issue i have only just noticed. In the middle of my screen, there is almost a perfect rectange of slightly discoloured, rainbowy effect on the screen. It is right in the centre of the screen, and goes to aout 1cm from the edge the whole way round.
Its like the digitizer has detached or pushed up against the screen. I cant remember doing anything to it. And if i run my finger over it, the rainbow effect moves/follows my finger then snaps back to the rectangle (kind of like when you have a bubble under a screen protector).
Also the area under this spot is slightly less sensitive and seems to be giving the odd random input.
Do you rekon this would be covered under warranty? I cant remember doing anything to the screen, and the fact is so pefectly placed in the middle of the screen.
Hey,
Mine does this as well... It's a perfect rectangle, and only visible in strong (especially flourescent) light. Can't notice any differences in input though. Interested to see what people think, and if it's a common problem. Can't remember any incident that could have led to this, I take care of my phone.
In case it helps, it's a UK Vodafone Touch Pro, with the latest HTC WWE ROM.
I have had a similair effect but not a perfect rectangle. somewhere mid screen slightly to the right I had a bubble of rainbow colour. I actually thought it was underneath the screenprotector so i bought a new one to change it. To my surprise the bubble was still there but internally.
I used to have my phone with the protective leather thingy in my jeans. I decided to take it out for a while. And what do you know. after a day the bubble dissapeared. I then put it back in my jeans and checked every hour. The bubble came back. So i'm guessing pressure on the glass internally or something.
Nowadays I dont carry it around in my tight jeans anymore. I use the protective leather that came with it and put it in my jacket pocket instead.
Edit: It has all the attributes xternal listed. The bubble that is.. less responsive random input rainbow following finger. In my case it has been due to pressure on the screen from my tight jeans. Yours might be something else though...
thanks for replies guys, sounds identical to what i have. i thought it was screen protector too, took it off to clean and noticed it was below. wasted blue, i was almost about to edit my post to include exactly what you said about flourescent light.
maybe it has happened from being in my tight jeans, strange that wasted blue and i have the same sized area though.
i have a fuze.
Mine is the Htc Touch Pro from HI, KPN Netherlands.
Xternal i would suggest you don't keep your phone in your jeans for a while and see if the bubble dissapears. Might take a few days at first. just put it in your jacket or something. If it dissapears you know what it is. I don't think this will fall under warranty. if it sticks regardless of pressure you might get warranty...
Oeh i just remember. If the backlight is out you will see a blacker than black dot on the screen where the bubble is supposed to be. if the light goes on its rainbowy fluorecent.
Thanks King, i have taken the protector off and will keep it out of my pocket. The pattern is the same if the backlight is on or off. Id post a photo, but its really hard to get it to show up in a photo.
Im of the opinion now that as you say, the digitizer is pushed against the screen, not detached. Hopefully it pops back
Hey guys.. same issue for a lot of people
It is something like this:

Look at what HTC told me:
New Response From [ Cathy (Malaysia Support (Tech)) ]
Dear xxxx,
We regret to inform you that based on our warranty policy, we can not provide you the free repair on this issue.
If the touch window having some rainbow mark, it is caused by extra force enter to the touch window and it is under user misused. Thus, there is no Warranty Provided.
Thanks.
Best regards.
HTC
After some rants:
Thank you for contacting HTC. With reference to your query, we understand you are upset for this issue. But according to the HTC warranty policy, the LCD is not covered by warranty. Please check the attachment for HTC warranty policy. For the "newton rings" issue, we recommend you send it to service center to replace the LCD. Thanks.
HTC

Thanks for the help guys, I'll try keeping it out of my jeans pocket for a while. Sounds like this "newton ring" problem in the other therads though. I'd tried replacing the screen protector as well before, but no joy there. Might need to try to get a replacement (took out insurance on it), but guess I'd need to flash back to the carrier ROM.
Anybody know how good Vodafone UK's insurance is about newton rings?
Just read kingpinda's post again, when my backlight is off I can still see the rings, so doesn't sound like the same problem. I'll still try it though, thanks.
I've always had problems with companies being incredibly difficult with warranty replacement. This is the first time it went far better than expected.
It started with a ghost touch problem on my TF700t. The screen would randomly sense that I was touching it in the far right corner when I clearly wasn't. This made that tab next to useless. This would seem like a simple solution, but there was a decent dent in the bottom of the tab at the charging slot and I had no idea how it got there. This would void the warranty as the plastic part where the glass touched the aluminum was cracked and the aluminum was bent. I told the ASUS rep. nothing about this before I sent it off but I worried what would happen when they got it. (The ASUS rep will warn you during the RMA request that they inspect it when it arrives and will charge you.)
The RMA went through fine and within a few days of its arrival I received a notification that it was shipping without any problems. I received the tablet back and noticed something that really surprised me. On the sheet that says what they replaced, there were two notes. One said "false screen issue, part # ..... replaced (the screen). The second said "gap anomaly, part # ..... replaced" Not only did they replace the screen, they replaced the entire housing of the tablet. It now looks brand new!
This is my first post on XDA developers so if I did something wrong when posting thats why...

Thanks.. Got a replacemnt at new Delhi gaffar market ... Just 2900 inr .. 40 dollars
I have ordered this one
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Fast...90.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.274.5R2YVv
for a common dreaded problem of having vertical green lines appearing on LCD from nowhere (although my fault, it got it dropped on flat floor from my shoulder height a couple of times). In my case the green lines are appearing on the edge panel itself only, so the old LCD maybe useful for me to keep just for an emergency replacement as well.
Does this one looks ok, I mean any of the replacement LCD+Frame+Digitizer combo ordered from either ebay or china would rather be coming from only a handful or sources (resellers), and maybe only one or two manufacturers (who might be manufacturing it as OEM as well).
How was your experience with the replacement LCD, does it looks and feels just like original in screen clarity, colours and touch responsiveness.
Thanks for sharing your experience.

My phone is working fine to this day without an issue. I don't know how that particular replacement will be. Let us know when you replace your screen.
Hi,
I have recently dropped my Mi 4C (3gb version, if that even makes a difference), cracked the screen and damaged the digitizer. I searched for a replacement screen & frame assembly on ebay and out of a dozen similar options chose one. I received and installed the screen without issues, but the picture quality is rather disappointing. The screen is not as bright as the original one with a noticeable yellow tint. If the latter can be remedied a bit by adjusting color temperature from the settings, the screen brightness is a real bummer. The original screen wasn't anything exceptional when it comes to using the phone outside in the sunlight, but the replacement one is just miserable... This leads me to my question:
Do any of you have experience ordering a replacement screen and actually getting a high-quality one? Where do you order them from?
Cheers,
A.
PS. Maybe I would have been luckier ordering a screen separate from the frame -- there are even more merchants to choose from, but I thought I'd save myself some gluing trouble...
This one was like the original
Hi, i've damaged my screen too and ai bought this :
on aliexpress.com look for "Xiaomi-Mi4c-LCD-Display-Touch-Screen-Tools-100-New-Digitizer-Assembly-Replacement-For-Mi-4C-Cell"
it's like the original one, i've not noticed differences :good:
