Blue Spot on screen! - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

http://s11.postimg.org/l0ddgl74z/IMG_20130911_WA0003.jpg
Hello there! It looks like a stuck pixel to me, not a dead pixel (which is black and can't be recovered)
It was worse but I managed to get it to this puting the phone in the freezer and using dead pixel detect and fix (although I think this app does nothing to me)
any reccomendations? should I keep trying with the freezer thing? when I get the phone out the blue spot is considerably smaller but then when it gets to normal temperature it goes again like the photo above
Thank you

thanks for all the replies, I appreciate them!

that looks more like physical screen damage sort of liquid bleed as if theres been something pressing there for sometime...either way if am correct there is nothing you can do other than new phone or screen

im glad to tell you aren't correct, it was even worse but on a thread on xda it suggested to put it in the freezer and it got better, but can't ge it better than this and I just posted this thread in case someone has found another way

screen swap. expensive but less expensive than buying a new phone.
ppctechs right? runs about 125$ if i remember correctly

yes. if you were me and i were you, id swap screens. i can have the casing banged up to all hell but the screen must be flawless. even hearing about a dead pixel from a stranger's phone is making me want to go clean my screen.
yea i wasnt happy when i turned it on and seen a red dot.. my heart about dropped
Hi, it sounds stuck, not dead, I actully tossed my stylus at my screen one day, When it froze up, and caused a pixel to stick blue, after some work rubbing it out with the round of my fingernail, or the curved butt end of the stylus which almost completely removed it, and giving it a few days with diff color screens, it finally unstuck.
There are some apps that are supposed to help fix screens also for ppc's.
Might as well give it a shot, if youre considering replacement, it did take a fair bit of pressure, you should see it turn black, then release.
what apps are these that u talk about?
ive used http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=377&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 and doesnt seem to be working
aslo used http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=44756 which is the same thing.. guess ill let it run over night like the guy did
are you sure htc won't let you get it repaired under warranty?
i had a mda compact II i bought off ebay and rang them up, saying i was told to contact them, they repaired it all under warranty and i had it back within a week (they had to replace the mainboard.lol.dont ask!)
try HTC!

Opps, I didnt catch that second link, till I hit reply, but the first is one I tried, and I had seen one other, but it required the .net framework, I was too freakin out at the moment to really have patience with the apps, because the blue pixel was staring me right in the face on my black todaypaper.
If that doesnt work running it, I recommend setting a black background, and gently applying pressure, until you see the pixel go black, and then work it back and forth between red/black in a circular/orbital type motion over the pixel, if it doesnt fully go away, but appears more faint, just give it a few days, and maybe even switch out your today screen a few times a day, but just make sure it isnt red, even occasionaly massaging the pixel from time to time, thats tthe method I used, and mine went away, hope you have the same luck.
stuck pixels
I had a stuck pixel and I was able to get rid of it using a combination of the stuck pixel fix movie and rubbing. It's good to do it while the unit is warm or hot...like leave it in the car and then rub that area using moderate pressure. There are plenty of guides on the web to fixing stuck pixels on lcd monitors. Consult one of those.
ok ill try that angelis..
i dont think i can contact htc about this.. i sorta got the phone on the DL..
none of these tips have worked.. still have this little red pixel. crazy thing is.. when i have yellow or green on the screen the pixel turns green or yellow depending on the background color.. this makes no sense
Jacob, search Ebay for Hermes parts.. and see if you can get a new screen...
im so trying to avoid that..
can you post a pictuer of this screen? just curious...lol
how do u expect me to do that? lol.. theres no way my digital will pick up 1 dead pixel
ahh....ya...lol

Touch Screen "Smudge"

Hi all,
I've now seen two HTC Touch devices with the same "smudge" on the screen. It appears in the centre, underneath the top layer of screen, and is roughly 3cm long. It's almost as if dust has collected in the middle of the screen or something.
I'd have thought nothing of it until I saw another device with the same thing. Has anyone else experienced this? It's not always visible - with the screen off, or in direct sunlight you can see it, but otherwise it's not noticeable.
Anyone?
I have the same **** right in the center of my device
i've the same probleme on my screen
it's very boring
After how long did you begin to see this problem? I have only had my Touch a short amount of time and haven't had this issue but its not great that many people are dealing with it.
Damn, I hope this doesn't turn into another "my black Trinity is peeling" issue that affects all or most Touch users. Why don't you guys run a poll to get an idea how wide spread this is? Perhaps HTC needs to be made aware of this if it's not just some isolated defects.

I was one of the few that never had paint peeling issue on my black Trinity so hopefully I can dodge this smudge issue too....
I think u will find that it is an inherent part of the hard touch screen. Device off on all touches should display what some call a blur. I have to put mine at an angle and I can see a small 1cm max. aboration. otherwise quite unnoticeable.
Had mine almost 8 weeks and not any hint of any smudge / blur or anything unusual
Guess what, I also have this blur at the center of my screen, I thought nothing of it at first because it is barely noticable and second I thought that maybe I accidently pressed on the screen to hard at one point while carrying in my pocket; However now I am more concerned due to the fact that others have this same issue...??
Same problem with mine.
to all that have the problem. Do you have an original Touch ore a branded version (XDA, MDA etc.)?
Well, i have that little piece of htc touch since about one week, the branded version XDA. don´t got that smudge on my screen, and i hope i never will. ... otherwise i will get it back to the shop and try to get a new one ... have got the experience that O2 (i´m having the htc from that privider in Germany) turned out to be quite nice in such things.
just something that you migh like to consider. Coming from unverified source:

...Unfortunately, my Touch has developed a patch of fog or dust under the screen, and HTC have confirmed they've had several reported cases of this. They were very helpful on the phone, though, and sound like they're going to be good about getting me a replacement quickly
can someone post a screenshot, that the other users
know, what you are talking about?
thanxs in advance

i see a big patch while starting the device where it says "smart mobility" but after that never noticed it :-/
i will try to take a pic of it ........
are you talking about that submarine or something below smart mobility?

yeah yeah its kinda submarine .....is it same with ur mobile ?? i guess the background they have used is not perfect black :-/
I'll try to get a photo of it tonight. It's basically a smudge that's 2cm high, and half a centimetre wide, right in the centre of the display. It's beneath the external covering on the screen, and almost looks like a neatly arranged collection of dust right in the middle.
I may have someone who can look into this for me, so I'll investigate and post here if anything turns up. It does sound like this is a problem with the device though, and is more widespread than I expected.

Yeah but I only noticed it when soft resetting and when someone posted it here so I looked below the smart mobility text carefully.. haven't noticed it otherwise..
Smudge
I had this problem just days after getting my Touch. I sent it back and got another... I have a smudge again... even though it isnt as bad. I will contact HTC again and see if I can send it back again. Not sure I will have a Touch after sending this one back.

Weird spot on the screen

Hi guys,
Today I noticed a very weird looking spot on the screen, or better just below it. It seems like there is some fluid just beneath the surface of the screen. I am always very careful with my HTC's, so I really don't believe I caused it... There was no pressure, I didn't drop it, I carry it in my shirt breast pocket or inside pocket of my jacket, without any other items. I really really dont know what happened - I pulled it out of it's leather sleeve, and it was there. This morning it wasn't.
Any idea if this is covered under warranty? Any idea what caused it?
Best Regards,
Lukas

I'd be STRAIGHT on to my supplier if mine looked like that! How does it look when the screen is on, cos let's face it, that's when it really matters, and probably how they'll view it when it comes to the warranty.
It's difficult to capture on a picture, but it's VERY visible when screen is on. Colors beneath the spot (wallpaper) seem washed out a little, so you get a very small color difference...
Something to do with cold weather and heating leading to condensation? I have no idea but I would ake a photo and email HTC AND your place of purchase ASAP to see if you could get a replacement, even if it doesnt bother you when the screen is on. It would bother me though, I think I havean almost OCD like quality when it comes to devices being perfect...
On a second thought, the leather case that comes with it is extremely tight, I couldn't remove my phone from it for the first few days till it stretched out! Do you think that might be enough pressure to do that to a screen?
I'd definitely get on to whoever you got this from then. That's not good!
call the waranty service ...
Mine had a weird spot as well right in the middle (and it appeared out of nothing like yours). Doesn't quite look like yours though (maybe you just caN't see it in the photo). Only noticeable at certain angles, and it looks like a colorful smudge. With the screen on it's even harder to notice it. When you press on it the "puddle" moves and shifts.
It looks like there is humidity under it. I went to the shop where I bought it, and they said that happens with some other touch screen phones, and is bound to disappear. The guy said it was due to the heat getting trapped bellow the screen.
In my opinion looks more like a humidity condensation thing.
Take it to the shop where you bought it, ask for an opinion. You still have loads of time to use the warranty, and if in 3 or 4 months it is still there or if that bothers you, just activate the warranty.
Thnx for the replies guys!

I don't think it's cold/warm/cold issue... Today I got up, put my phone in my inside jacket pocket, went down to my garage, got in the car, drove to work, into an underground garage and took the elevator into the office - phone wasn't exposed to cold today AT ALL. And it doesn't seem to be water, it's not very fluid, and there is no damp.

It bothers me massively - even when I'm NOT looking at it. The spot is also very visible when the screen is turned on.
I'd definitely get on to whoever you got this from then. That's not good!

Did that immediatly after noticing the spot - my supplier asked me to e-mail him the pictures which I did, but he seemed reluctant to promise a replacement... He said that quote mechanical damage is not covered by HTC warranty unquote. This sucks - I didn't do anything wrong!

The spot on my phone is really visible, doesn't matter at which angle you look. Screen off is worse than with screen on. There is no color in the spot whatsoever and it doesn't seem to be movable (if I press hard I can make it bigger, but it returns to original size after release)... I'll keep it warm for the night, and I'll see tomorrow... I could measure it, and see if dimensions are changing when temperature rises or drops.

When I heat it for about ten minutes with a blow dryer it disapears. When I stop heating it, it reappears @ room temperature... WTF is this thing?

WTF indeed!?! When it dissapears does the display show correctly where it used to be?
Yes, you don't see anything wrong. For about two minutes. Then the spot reappears exactly in the center of the screen (where the 'wait' cursor/hourglass appears) and starts to grow until it has it's "original" dimensions.

Looking at the placement, it seems it's similar to mine, which is right in the center. Mine returns to the center if I press it as well.
The heat test you just did made me believe it has something to do with heat like the guy where I bought it said...
Here is another thread on the same subject (different phone)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293311
I kept reading around, there are reports of the duct tape method.
Basically it works in the presumption the problem is both screens not keeping space between themselves. Just use duct tape over the wet patch, and pull it 20 or 30 times, and the screen should lift and the patch disappear. I'll try it and tell you if it worked.
Thank you! I'll try it as well.
Didn't work...
lol... I had to look for tape, but the tape method was unsuccessful as well on mine.
thnx anyways.
this is a capacitive touch screen so all are glass and the tape method won't work as there isn't anything to lift up unlike the resistive screen where there is a gap between the top plastic and the actual screen

You cannot fix a hardware problem with some app. The pixel is dead meaning you can consider it faulty screen. You really believe that app fixes it for real lol? If so alright good for you, but the rest of people that value the money they spent on this phone, I would recommend doing rma if they have dead pixels because they can increase in number as time passes. Do not feel sorry for lg and google. They make bellions. Keep rma till you feel you get a good unit. People pay premium prices and so should be what they get in return.

the only downside to rma with the nexus 5 is google makes you pay for a new phone, get that new phone and ship it back in the box they send you. not everyone has another $450 to drop on another 32gb model nexus 5

Hi
Dead or stuck pixels are faulty pixels. Flashing colours does not fix them, it is snake oil.
What usually happens is the process of running these apps for 30 minutes or so just heats up the display and some faulty pixels have connection faults that fix themselves with the stresses caused by expansion due to the heat. It is the same process that means gentle pressure can sometimes "fix" a faulty pixel if the fault is of a certain type on an LCD monitor. Pressure on mobile phones doesn't work as well as the front glass and display is designed not to flex under the pressure of a finger for obvious reasons.
If you are lucky, a pixel that starts working may continue to work, usually however it will just fail again at some point in the future. These faulty pixels that work for a while are the same ones that appear after an hour, a day or a week of using the phone after you thought you had a perfect screen. The fault was always there.
The best thing if you don't want faulty pixels and find them, is not to try and fix them, but to exchange the phone. Better to exchange it sooner rather than later.
Regards
Phil

Than you for this post. I have a very very small dead pixel in the center of my screen and it really doesn't bother me. I have to adjust my eyes and have a white background to see it.. Would this damage the screen further or do you think it would be fine? I don't want to have to get a replacement lol

It is very unlikely to become any worse, so if you are okay with it no problem, you do not need to worried about more failing.
Generally LCD displays have an allowable number of dead/stuck pixels anyway. This is because otherwise the yield would be much lower as displays would be thrown out putting the price very high. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defective_pixel

Thanks!! This helped with 3-4 stuck pixels i had. Eventually i'll do an RMA but for the time being it helped.

Than app is quite good indeed, but unfortunately it doesn't support yet the full screen...
So it can't be used to detect dead-pixels which are located at the bottom of the screen.
I suggest you using this one, instead, which supports full-screen and can be used to detect dead-pixels and fix stuck-pixels:
search Perfect Pixel Checker on Google Play, because the board doesn't let me post links yet.

Yes it does. It absolutely will render on the entire screen. You just have to touch the screen & the status & nav bars will hide.
FWIW I did something similar to my 6 year old Apple Cinema HD display and it worked wonders ironing out stuck & burned pixels.
ran for over 12 hours and didn't fix any of the stuck pixels on both the devices I received that were faulty. RMA'ed first, and now waiting for replacement for my other one. Hopefully 3rd time is a charm.

no answer???
I am no pro with screens, So i may be wrong, but it looks like it has been either burnt or had an impact with a sharp object in that area of the screen, return it for a new one, hopefully they will replace it.
Looks like the LCD definitely needs to be changed. It looks like it's burnt or either a reaction to a magnet but I'm not quite sure what can cause that. Costs can vary but directly from LG will cost you parts+labor+shipping. Check if that Orange spot still register when you touch it.

Options: Send to LG to get it fixed (probably costs more than $100+ depending), sell it as is and get another phone (won't get as much for it with the spot) or keep it and use it as is since it still registers touch (spot might be a little annoying).

hmmmmm :c you are probably going to have to replace the screen yourself (cheaper) or live with the yellowness
I've got some yellowness appearing along the top right of the screen. Its barely noticeable but its likely to get worse over time.
From what I can tell, it seems to be related to heat/warmth. Its winter here and after a walk outside, the orangish patches pretty much go away. They appear more intense when sitting on my desk next to my laptop (right near the vent).
Same problem
Same thing here... Same location and same color.

Hey there I have the exact same problem it also works when I touch it.. Its the exact same size same shape and on the same place on my screen but the opposite side it's an LG g4 though it seems to have happened right after I dropped it the first time without the case(first day I took case off too lol.. I'll send you pictures if you want to email me I don't know how to upload pictures here I never had these problems with my g3 but they all seem to be common with all LGs[email protected]
