Wonky screen - Desire HD General

Hi All,
I noticed this when I first got the phone, but now it's bugging me more. It would appear that the lcd in my DHD is not aligned with the case and is slightly off center by a couple of mm.
Anyone else seen this, had any response from suppliers re: changing it?
Thanks.

Yohm
Me too with the same probs, at the right/down it fits, but the rest, nono.
Because i have several other problems, yesterday i've made a RMA (i think DOA, cause i've received the phone @ 11-6) to my carrier (Vodafone) and still waiting for an awnser.

A couple of mm?! You got a pic?

I got the same. As the insides are pushed through the bottom I have come to terms with it. Sadly though it is bugging the hell out of me.

Is it the phone or the skins? I use a vlingo keyboard and the bottom of the keyboard is totally straight with the bottom of the phone. It appears to me some skins make phone look lobsided

[Q] htc logo on back of phone

Hi all, the "h" from the htc logo on the back of my legend has come off. A trivial thing but annoying, it's now just an "h" shaped dent with a couple of glue holes. The metal "h" is now somewhere in Greater London
The phone's still under warranty but wondering if this was a common issue?
I have seen it before but not sure how common, try sending it back!
Well somebody already mentioned this problem. But his was the 'C'. Its not that common but it does happen.
I make up the trio - I've lost the 't' from the back of mine. It hasn't been through any major falls or anything so it's probably something they'd fix under warranty.
I've noticed mine sounds like there's something moving if I give it a fairly hard tap where the rubber around the camera is; I don't know if that's how it's always been though.
Crazy, I looked at mine after reading your post and I'm missing the h now as well. Wonder how long ago it fell off...

Yes! I've noticed that too since day one. The hell is it?

YEah I have that too; I think it's the AF lens?
It's the autofocus. Same "klick" as when it is focusing on cam app mode.

bottom of screen unresponsive?

I just got my woad in the mail today and I've only had one issue.
The bottom of the screen isn't very responsive.. and the unresponsiveness mostly happens
To the bpttom of the screen I was just wonering ifany1 else has experienced a problem like this.
Should I return it for a new one or stick with this one?
Btw this is fresh out the box so its still on 3.1 not sure if it will make
A difference though if its a hardware defect.
im having few problems with bottom left of the screen not being as responsive as the rest of the screen. This problem becomes obvious when i started using a drawing app to take notes and noticed on bottom left it would skip over little parts of the screen. i tried differnent apps and get this. before that i never noticed this and thos spots arent dead because if i use my thumb then it detects.
So I'm not alone then. I guess I'll ask new egg to send new another epad must be a manufacturer defect.

I've got a whole section of the x axis (in landscape) across the screen that is dead. Pretty ridiculous QC if you ask me. This device is *****ing as long as everything is functional hardware wise. Working on my fifth one here because of various defect. I'd like to kick someone's ass for this.

I got one and the whole top of the screen maybe about a half inch had the same problem. Returned it and the new one is fine.

[SURVEY], Digitizer problems vs. Ring around screen

I upgraded phone a few days ago because my digitizer issues were becoming increasingly unbearable. Furthermore, I had this whitish ring around the edge of the screen. I'm thinking that the two might be correlated, and so I was wondering if anybody else could provide input.

I was having issues too, any amount of moisture on my fingers would cause my screen to go crazy, send text make calls hang up on calls.. was driving me nuts so I went out and got an HTC one S, as bell doesnt carry the one X, or any top of the line phones... anyway
I didnt like that the text wasnt as sharp on the one S and a few other things so I took it back and got a $20 screen protector put on my atrix at Solo and its been working great since. no white rim or screen peeling issues for far.
What did you upgrade to?
Edit: nm guessing S3 by your sig lol.
Yep, got the s3 and I'm loving it. I had the white rim on my atrix about a month after I purchased it, but never thought much of it. But I'm just perplexed as to how randomly the screen started to deteriorate since June that now I'm in search of a catalyst lol

Heat & gap concerns

Hi
I got my HTC one just under a week ago on three and I'm in love with it. But there are some things I'm worried about. One thing is that when I play games or plug the phone in charge the cool aluminum back becomes rather uncomfortably hot and makes me have to switch hands, it doesn't burn but it does irritate...
Secondly I've seen some posts about gaps at the top and I have those but I was wondering if anyone else has a very fine bulge of the plastic above where the usb port is? I don't know if this is a fault of my phone or it is a general thing so I don't know whether to ask for an exchange or not... If anyone wants pictures of the gap just say!

I know it's only slight but it bothers me when i catch it in the corner of my eye
i dont see anything
The tiny white bit in the right side, look across the phone and you'll see it better because you can't see the white bit anywhere else... I do have really sharp eyes though so If you can't see it I'm sorry

I can see it, i have excactly the same on my One, im just living with it though as everything else is soo perfect!
The only thing im worried about, is were that is, were the charger plugs in, the 2 little 'Catches' on the charger that hold it in rub on the white bit, in other words the hole seems to small, only slightly, i may contact HTC about this as im a little worried it will cause future problems like a Broken Charger or Charge Point etc. . .
Yeah that's exactly what I was worried about with the charger thing, if you do contact HTC let me know how it goes

Will do. . .
i still cant see it. somebody mind circling it out in an edited photo?
Here.:cyclops:
ahhh thanks. i suppose that is the overhang issue. the speaker grille is badly glued.
htc is supposedly working on a solution right now, and it will be resolved in april batches. i think

I don't think it is because I can't push it in at all so I'm guessing the size of something in that area is wrong :/

So do you guys think they carrier will swap it for me or am I just being really uptight?

Mine gets very hot too, I'm guessing that is a metal thing though, the gaps don't bother me or any slight overhang.
For me the issues are...
Blinkfeed
Heat
slow charging
home button is so hard to hit because it's small and in the corner
no battery percentage
no file search on the phone

Try a launcher or put blink feed to the side and disable all sources? The file search apps on the market do me fine but normally they put something on the battery so there is less heat transfer to one spot I n the metal but I don't think they've done that in the first batch :/ and mine charges pretty fine as well

I too have the overhang on the charging port. I have had two handsets (first one replaced due to gaps at top which moved when pressed) and its been on them both.
Second one has a slight dent/scratch in the white band, so ill wait another week (still in 28 days) and try and get another swap out. I do love the phone, battery life is immense, I'm getting about 2.5 days out of it at mo.
I have owned so many HTC phones it boggles the mind. In that time I have had to have 3 go in for repair. On stopped charging (one S) another had the wifi GPS glitch (one X international) and one just plain died one day to never turn on again (ATT one x+). All of these were taken care of by HTC. Can't say without issue, the international one X they scratched the case and took a little while to get a new one but in the end all my issues were taken care of. I would really say wait until HTC has resolved these issues and then they will take care of you 100%. You will need to be able to send the phone in for repair but they are fairly quick about 10 days total turn around time. They also didn't have any issue at all repairing a international phone at the USA HTC repair center something that is not true with Samsung.
Are you in the UK or America? Cus if you're in the UK I think I can get an exchange as well

Touch screen Z3C

Just diagnosed a strange issue. After installing the touch screen protector I've noticed strange behavior of my phone. It seemed very unresponsive and I decided to ingage the glove mod. But the issue was still there . Tried to take off the screen protector, still the same s**. Then started the diagnosis and here it is??? How is that possible that screen protector do something like that?

My phone intermittently has the same issue, but horizontally in the middle of the screen.
Sometimes it works great and sometimes the touch just kind of lives its own life in that non-responsive area and makes touches all by itself.
I've made a video showing some of it when dragging lines like yours in an app called YAAMT. I could link to it later if there's any demand.
Right now my phone is in the repair shop for said issue. Not sure what they'll say, though, since it's an intermittent thing and they need to see it before they can confirm it...even though I've got the video. And sometimes the phone works great for days before the problem comes again.
To be clear, the screen protector did not cause this. Mine was like this out of the box.
I'll try to change my for new one. Now I tried to give you thx and had to touch it 3 times to make it work.

Just in case anyone, like I did, searches for YAAMT and doesn't find it, it's actually YAMTT (Yet Another Multi Touch Test)

Same issue here but at one side i dont know what triggered it but it surely reduced when i removed the screen protector
I was thinking that it started maybe with the update so on the new one I'm still on the older build.
Could it be the cause?

Ok guys so here is sort of a good new for all of u having the screen issue i just posted a screen shot of my phone screen earlier today showing the defect... Just moments earlier i droped my phone accidentally by a foot height or so and guess what my phone screen is now totally ok and functional and responsive. I have attached a screen shot of it now u can see...... So may be its just due to some lose connection internally which gets fixed by a drop or so (fingers crossed).... So its up to u people what u want to do( may be try a small drop) but i cant gurantee anything for u guys its up to u people i say again really i worked for me and i am happy for my phone now.......... Hope its also helps u people......... Thanks and share your experience if anything gets better for anyone...............

Not so for me. I had it on the old build as well.
The repair shop exchanged the display and digitizer as well as the back glass on warranty. They also gave me complimentary screen protectors for both the front and the back since I had to wait two weeks for the repairs. It came back factory reset with the latest software update.
I've installed the protectors, and my phone is a totally different beast now. Incredibly responsive with all touches now. No more missed swipes, no more trouble typing and no more of the screen living it's own life.
In other words, in my book, this is clearly a hardware issue.
