Hi,
I wonder if anyone else has noticed this in the blackstone; I can see a grid of dots all over the screen when it's turned on. Ok, you have to look closely, but it's a bit annoying. I can see the dots better when I have a white or green background. For example, going to Start -> Programs I see the dots in the space between the icons.
I know the dots are from the 'resistive' layer, the dots are the sensors of the touchscreen... but they become visible and appear as small green dots perfectly aligned. I don't see them all the time, only when I have a white background or looking with a certain angle.
Should I be concerned? Could it be a problem with my screen?
Thanks!
Sounds a bit strange to me, the only time I can see the dots/grid is in bright sunlight. Then they look like small pin points in plastic.
i've never noticed that on mine...
That is normal, those are touch sensors for the screen. They allow the screen to recognise a touch.

Agree, but I had other PDAs before and never seen the dots when the screen is turned on. I don't care about the dots being visible when I'm under a bright light; my point is that I can see the dots when the screen is turned on, no matter under what kind of light. When I have a white backround, it looks like there's dust on the screen. If I look closely, I can see the dots in green colour, as a result of the reflectied light from the screen. I know they are the touch sensors, but it seems no one else can see them--
Any idea?
Thanks!
it is indeed normal especially under bright sunlight. However if you insist that you can see them when you switvh your device on, no matter the external light conditions, there might be something wrong with the screen. Have you seen other HD phones recently? Do you see the same dots there when they're switched on?

I haven't had the chance to see another HD; I've looked at a Diamond and Cruise, the dots are NOT there. I've tried to take a picture, but seems impossible to see the points in a picture (at least for the N95's camera).
I found an old tread talking about old PDAs that had the same issue, maybe they explain the issue better: http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=207321
I'm not sure if I should send the HD to the service. Anyone knows how the 'worlwide warranty' works? I sent an email using htc.com site, but they don't respond.
Thanks!
Any advice on this matter...?
I don't know about colored dots, but every pocket pc I've ever owned had the dot grid visible in sunlight, it is normal, they should be clear dots though.
ok i have Strange white dots on the screen,inside screen i dont know why but this is 2 time , maybe is because of overclocking and heating ? white dots are only visible if you look from angle below 20 :/
yesterday i notice that my phone have dark light on upper left and get brighter 45 degrees to right down.
is this normal or that problem with my screen?
A picture would help, but from the description, it sounds like the screen has gone bad.
hey guys
today I noticed a thin vertical line that shows up on low brightness and on specific red color
it goes from the top of the screen to the bottom on the left side of the screen only if I display Gmail's red on it (( other types of red are fine )) .. I noticed this while I was checking my mail today there was a thin black line on the notification bar and the top side of the app (( the red part )) ,but when I increase the brightness to the half the problem goes away
I know my screen maybe defective but can I solve this by myself ? because the warranties here are very bad and they'll probably ignore the problem and return my phone after 14 days without fixing anything
Guys suddenly today morning suddenly i got pinkish spot on display at left top of corner any solution please....
