[Q] Lots of dead pixels - Streak 5 General

Hi all!
I've had my streak since august now, and lately it has developed some screen weirdness in the upper corners. It started in the upper left corner, but it didn't bother me (i can still press the menu-button up there). Now it has duplicated to the upper right corner, and that bothers me some more - i can't see what time it is..
Is there anyone else who's experiencing this kind of problem? Does anyone have a clue what the dell return policy would be in this case? I live in Norway, so i'm not sure i want to return it if the dead pixel patches doesn't grow.. (i'll probably have to pay tax for the phone when they return it in the mail!)

Looks like your LCD broke underneath the glass. It should be covered under warranty, though they might make things difficult for you if there is any visible damage to the outside.

Seems like you have your streak on the trouser pockets most of the time, and in that time seems like it has been pushed against the screen for so long that the pixels are burning... Just my tought. don't know if this is cover under warranty but you can probably get away with it because there is no sign of misuse.

If you drop it constantly it will spread. But if you keep it safe from danger there should be no problem

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Your going to get air pockets in your protector then dust then when you take it off it might make it worse but then again it might not but for sure keep stress off of it I mean im sure you know that but I had to say it but of it's not that deep it might not be that bad
Still flashing
Looks like it's just the uppper right corner and almost all the way to the edge. May spread completely to the edge, but I wouldn't worry much. Don't drop it

So didnt opt for the protection plan? Can I ask how this happened? This is gorilla glass so you had to have done something rather rough to get this to happen.

broken screen, need help.

Well my HD2 is now a paper weight not due to a bad flash, but because the touch screen no longer work.
The screen is cracked and a piece of it is missing, I'm not sure if i should order lcd screen, digitizer, or both. I attach a picture of the crack in hoping someone with some knowledge can help me out.
Also does anyone know of a place in Long Beach, CA area that can provide screen/digitizer replacement service at a fairly reasonable price.

$89 screen repair
Saw this on ebay might be worth checking out. http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-HD-2-Broken...0576654092?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item2a0b35130c
Don't know anything about the place just thought I would pass the info.
thanks for the info. I'm going to try to find a local dealer first before i start shipping things out.
That looks like a digitizer problem, does the lcd screen turn on at all?

EVO Screen Abuse.. taking requests

I dropped my evo a few weeks ago and chipped the bottom-left corner of the glass. It still works fine but with the E3D right around the corner I decided it was time to call in for a replacement so I have a good one to sell when I get the 3D. Lucky me.. they sent me a new one, not a refurb
Before they turn my phone into a viable refurb they're going to have to replace the screen so before I send the old one back I intend to find out just how much damage the screen can take.
I've horrified a few people here, showing them the screen needs no protection by TRYING to scratch it with knives, screws, keys, coins, etc..
I'm going to take some video of the forthcoming torture but am open to suggestions before I begin
This is the current state of my evo:

do you have access to any gunpowder?
I was thinking tit would be interesting to see you cut a little line of gunpowder, like a line of... you know, some other powdery substance someone might arrange on a glass surface...
And light it up!
slide it face down in the street. there maybe glass in the street.
Take a diamond to it lol

[Q] Black spots on nook color screen

today when I powered on my nook color I noticed it has big black two spots and some distorted lines. Here is the image:

It also looks like the screen cracked (white aslant line), though I have to say the front glass is perfectly fine (not even a scratch). I haven't used it for about a week and I don't remember having it dropped during that time. Does anyone know what is it? Is it even possible to have broken LCD with front glass being untouched?
I'm in Europe right now but I have valid warranty - does anyone know if there is any B&S support here or I have to send it to my family in US?
Wow looks pretty ****ed up.
Wish I could tell you whats wrong but to tell the truth, the best thing I could give you is a guess...

Yup. You're screen is pooched. You can try and find a 3rd party screen replacement overseas, but your best bet is to send it back to the states and see if you can get it repaired or replaced under warranty.

DT vs 13" Macbook Pro (3ft drop)

So I'm on vacation and I got a lil drunk. And I left my phone and laptop on a flimsy table. I accidently nudge the table and what do you know... My phone drops and lands on its screen... But then my heavy macbook pro retina (13-14lbs) drops 3ft corner first right on the back of my phone. I pick it up and inspect the back where it hit. A indentation not too noticeable unless you really focus on it but you can feel it so I was relieved. But then I turned it over. Shattered and non responsive. Screen did not turn on. Kinda disappointed it didn't stand up to it but it did save my laptop. Moral of the story... Leave electronics as close to the ground as possible when drinking.

Why would you be disappointed this happened? It's logical the phone wouldn't work with it being struck by 14 lbs all in one concentrated force which was the corner of the Macbook. Most likely the internal chassis and motherboard got highly damaged hence why no response.
Yeah expected... Mine had a similar fall but it just cracked the screen but phone still worked... Anyways why bother when Virizon/Motorola is gonna replace it for free for you!
In other news, glass breaks.
Good news is.. free replacement for a cracked screen in the first year!!
