Hi,
I have found tons of topics about changing the screens density but thats not what is mean, I want to change the resolution, I want to lower it, and I want th density to stay the same, so that not my full screen is used anymore. For example: if I have a screen of 100 by 100 pixels, I want to change it th 100 by 50 pixels so that half of my screen is used, and the other half is just black. Is that possible?
Thank you
I have not heard about anything what could help you.
But that is very interesting problem, I wonder what do you need it for. Can you please write some background?

I need it because I want to make an android device that looks like a nokia 3310, but that phone only has a 2 inch screen. There is an android device with a 2 inch touchscreen but thats 200 dollars, while a have an old android phone lying here that would be perfect if i could make it use only half the screen. the rest of the screen would then be going under the keyboard.
I've lost my touch

My touch sensor went dead out of the blue on only a quarter inch of the right side, so i need to "squish" the screen over to be able to use what would normally be on that section of the screen.
Bump for yhus topic, my touch sensor also dead at both side, i would like to find a way to squeeze everything to middle so i can use is without the dead sensor part.

Hi Touch pro user,
Will be getting my touch pro soon. Any program to share to check for dead pixels?
What is the standard number of dead pixel then i can request to change a new set?
Thanks!
Is that possible? That's almost like asking the phone to check for flaws in your case. Dead pixels are a hardware issue not usually a software issue.
I think he asks for a programm that shows colored screens, so that he can visually check if all pixels work.
Maybe some single-color pictures would do the job, viewed fullscreen in HTC Album. Just one black, white, red, green, blue one in 600x800 each

Oo any reason to use that res ? TP is 480x640 so would be enough, no ?

Sure 480x640 is enough, I was already thinking about another topic while typing
I made a small utility that displays the colors enumerated by stan23.
To run the program, .Net Compact Framework 3.5 has to be installed on the device.
I know this is an old post but I think I just spotted one dead pixel on my unit :-( its a very tiny pixel but still, I was able to notice it.. damrnit! You think I can return this unit?
Hi all,
my tg01 has a large rainbow patch on the screen, and it is sometimes visable even when the back light is on,
i was wondering if replacing the screen would solve this problem?
and if this is the solution is this the right part i should order?

The part you have linked to is just the Digitiser (incidentaly not apparently identical to the TG01) - the resistive matrix pad which sits over the actual LCD and provides the 'touch' x-y grid information to the processor.
A rainbow patch suggests one of three things:
1. a point of pressure which is distorting the LCD screen under the digitiser
2. possibly a crack in the actual glass
3. inward distortion in the digitiser causing it to press against the LCD glass
I'd look closely first to see if you have anything eg. between the battery and the body which might be causing such pressure forwards; then check the digitiser to see if the surface appears bowed inwards and finally examine closely for any crack.
It may be that a new digitiser would solve; but if there is a crack in the LCD glass then I'm afraid only a replacement screen will solve.
Good luck !
Thanks for your help
i will look into it more
but i think its because of the screen being exposed to a point of pressure because lately i have been keeping it in my trouser pocket along side my ipod which i think has created the rainbow patch
I found something like this.

maybe it helps
alternative solution
If someone in Italy have broken his TG01 and want to sell, i'm online, my tg 01 need a new mainboard....
Thanks

why not try
Finally, you buy it?
stay away!
I think we can try

I will ask a very stupid question... can I put some other device touch screen or like to put REGZA the tg03 capacitive screen? u dont need drivers for that just that screen fits?

Most unlikely that it would be practicable to transplant a capacitive screen. The resistive digitiser on the TG01 screen has a dedicated ribbon cable interfacing to the main board providing X-Y information; even if the capacitive substitute had a similar connector, the hardware on the main board will not be able to interpret the signal. And I am sure that there will be different drivers for the capacitive screen, even though performing the same function.
I would have to ask though why the desire to go capacitive ? The resistive screen (properly calibrated) gives virtualy the same responsiveness with the massive added bonus of being able to use a proper stylus when wanted, in particular for real handwriting recognition, which is impossible on a capacitive device.
just asking, I had and capacitive that was really bad so as resistive and I had the good capacitive and probably the best resistive screen here on tg01

Not possible. The only screen that it would be able to use is the super lcd that it normally uses. Other screens even if you could find one the same exact size, resolution, and connections probably wouldn't work properly if at all.

awww darn i wish there was some modification cause i would like amoled or lcd2 cause im jelious of the htc one x / v
Just take care of that lcd you have right now. Im having a huge issue with the lcd i have right now, there are 3 versions as far as i can see. The so called hitachi-60H00519, the Sony-60H00623, and the one i have on this phone which i dont have a clue about it and it seems like no one else does either, 60H00532(I dont even know the brand). It looks exactly like the Sony version but sure enough i bought a Sony lcd thinking that it was going to do the job and nothing. Doesnt turn on or anything. So people pay good attention to those numbers when you have to change yours so that you dont run into what i did. Worst thing is that i cant find my version on Ebay or anything.
I have a yellow band at the bottom of my screen and one spot around 1 inch at the top.
How did it come there ? Is there an app that can give this issue ? (I have a screen protector:maybe the cause?)
edit: it's a burn-in issue.
Maybe the screen has burned-in (amoled) ? Seems not rom related.
It can very well be a screen issue.. However if it is a burn in issue, then switch to white background and confirm.. There's apps available on the play store that might help reduce burn ins. This is a problem that plagues most of the AMOLED screens..

thanks! Now I actually saw three signs from icoyote, an app I sometimes used for hours, so it's a burn-in problem. Which tools should I use (found one app) ? Does the ips screen have the same issues (using the oneplus one as a second phone for work) ?

IPS have the standard RGB matrix when it comes to each pixel, but the AMOLEDs use an pentile matrix, i.e. they share blue pixels per red and green (you can read up more on it or check Erica's channel on youtube). Because of this, the blue pixels die out faster hence giving the burned effect. This happens when the screen is on for long and on the same app or notification bar etc. The burn in tool is supposed to help, but haven't had the problem so can't really vouch for it. I'm attaching a few links which might be useful for you. :fingers-crossed:
Hope I could be of some help to you.

Those apps didn't fix it. I think that it's not possible.
Hello
I have noticed that my Moto G (1st gen) has a problem where if you touch the screen you can see a "ripple effect" in the center of the screen, it's get more noticeable as you press harder, but even if you press light touches it's still visible somehow but very little.
I have searched the forums and found people having this issue with the 2nd gen of the device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/help/screen-question-t2947732
here is a picture of the problem some guy posted (in my device it's always presents in the center of the screen no matter where i press):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3036129&d=1417076320

Make sure brightness is highest and test in while you viewing black image: http://images2.layoutsparks.com/1/230004/seductress-plain-black-page.jpg

Bro it is normal. LCD screen/ 1st gen/2nd gen/ bla bla.. Manufactures these days are focusing on QHD/Full HD/i dont know what HD and they have no fix for this "problem". It is very normal that you have this, so dont bother with it and dont change for a new one! I had 2 LG G2 phones same problem, I bought the G3 same ****, live with it

I know LCD screens have this issue, but I suppose in phones they had to deal with it somehow.
what's bothering me it's that if it's more noticeable if i press the middle of the screen, the bottom and top parts seems less affected. like something is applying pressure to the middle of the screen (the battery maybe ??) I'm also seeing the "ripple" when I'm applying pressure to the M logo at the back of the phone.
Shame that even G3 has this issue who even cares about QHD lol, 720p is more than enough even for 5.5" screens.
Thanks for helping, I would be grateful if more people can check this out.

No bro, not the battery problem(no pressure), it is the way they made the phone.. Each LCD have his own "ripples", just take an app like linkedin en take a blue background you will see how sick the ripples are. Im also irritating a lot but really leave it dont look at the ripples
I've never had such a problem before with any touchscreen electronic ever had from resistive to capacitive touch. I did try to press really hard on the center of the screen of my Moto G and everything that happens is a slightly distortion because the glass is touching the pixels but not what you reported. What I noticed is a tiny bit reduction of the brightness every time I press the screen but is so minimal that you have to be in a pitch black room and pay a lot of attention to it. So I guess you could return the phone as defective or change the display if you're able to do that.
P.S. the pic you posted is not a total black image so when I turn the brightness all the way up I see something even if I'm not touching the screen. I tested with my own made really black pic and I have no issue whatsoever.

There is no way you really pressed hard and nothing happened.
If you would have pressed hard the ripples should be clearly visible, this is how LCD works and it's known. every phone with LCD I saw would ripple if pressed hard enough. My problem is that it's visible another normal usage in a dark room.
Are you sure it actually reduced the brightness? it supposed to be brighter. it will look like a white stain like in this picture: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3036130&d=1417076320. And yes the picture is not really fully black I found it on google and from my PC it looked blacked.

But why the ripple happens in the same spot? no matter where I press it's in the same location (in the center of the screen), that's makes me wonder, because in LCD's it's supposed to ripple where you touched.
Do you have a Moto G 1st gen too and actually sees this with regular taps? it's changing based on the tap location or it's fixed?
Thanks for your help

Because it is sensitive there?? It is rippeling on every spot where you touch buts on some ares it is more sensitive i think(close to the layers, especially in the center of your screen).
I own a LG G3 and before 2 LG G2 's. So i know what ripple means . Check the Z3 of Sony same ****.
