[Q] Black spots on nook color screen - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] Lots of dead pixels

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.

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?

everything works except for the touch part.

Replacing digitizer, how do I know which one to get?

Someone at work dropped their EVO and busted the screen so I told them I would try to replace it, I bought a screen off ebay but didn't see any differentiation between the screens so I just bought a random one. I read afterward that there are 2 different types of screens?
She has a Ver. 004
Gotta open it up. There's 2 different connectors, and small one and a large one. If you don't have right size connector for phone, then you wasted that purchase.
Sent from my EVO
yup, the only way to tell is to open it up and look

Lol fml! My screen bit the big one today. Found screen with bezel on eBay for 50 shipped. Already popped open evo once to play with its insides and found out its the small flex cable. I'll take pic for you to show what it looks like in case you wanna do it yourself. But on the other end, if you file insurance claim, you have good chance of getting evo 3d as asurion is bout depleted with og evos.

Weird lines on screen

Well, it started yesterday and it keeps driving me nuts. It's present both in the system as well as 4ext or even the splash screen so it is definitely a hardware issue. Is there any way to get rid of them because my contract ends in november but I was going to stay with my DHD and get myself a PS3 (very nice offer from my carrier)
It looks like that, it's not a screenshot but it looks exactly like that:

what seems to be an officer problem?
the faint horizontal lines on the screen. That is only a picture but live they also flicker.
You could try replacing the screen yourself, but it could happen that the gpu is the problem, in which case you can't do anything on your own...

I remember having the same issue right after I bought my DHD and I remember rooting and reflashing it helped I recently changed my Radio software, you think it might have anything to do?
It's not hardware. I get it on the current versions of the 3 kernel. Synergy said it was to do with fb (not sure what it is) and he's working on it.

FB....hmmm....frame buffer (only thing that comes to mind except FaceBook) Anyway you're a life saviour man! I was worried that I will have to get a new phone.

[Q] Dust under the camera lens?

Hi! I bought G2 just a week ago and I just need to confirm if this issue exists for others as well. Not to mention that I've used my phone extremely clearly and kept it out of dusty areas. The dust is under the lens, not above.
In any case, could someone suggest me what I can do to remove it or prevent further scratches?

I'm worried if my phone has weak sealings cause my old Xperia arc had dust appear under its lens only after a year or 2 of use. :/
