For some reason, my screen flickers bright and dark when I tap on the screen. I can press on the screen and it gets really bright, if I flick it a few times, it seems to stop flickering and will maintain a brightness...
Is my phone a defective unit?... I bought it from Swappa :\ it is in mint condition and was never on a network before, am I screwed on warranty from HTC?
Did you ever get this solved?
According to the warrenty, it says that it can't apply to you since you were not the original owner, but you can always try to get HTC to fix it.

Hey everyone,
Today after unplugging my Shadow, I slid the screen up (duh) to check my text inbox. Right as I pushed the screen up (only 1/4"-1/2" up from closed), the screen contrast decreased dramatically. I have been messing with this all day and it only happens within about a 1/2" area almost immediately above closed, but will move slightly up or down depending on how quickly the screen is slid in either direction. With the keypad completely out, this will completely go away, but several times now has remained low contrast with the keypad closed and the screen locked (screen lock has absolutely no effect to it). I have restarted and the phone still does this during boot-up. Anyone have any ideas? I'm really not looking forward to paying the $110 insurance claim fee for a 9-month old phone
Hey, i know exactly what you are talkin about, i had the same thing happen to my shadow. It turns out the the ribbon that connects from the wheel board(where the wheel is at) to the LCD cracks/breaks on the right side, and the part that sucks it only one or two lil lines that break and berely notice because t-mobile wouldn't take my phone through warranty and i didn't have insurance so i decided to take it apart myself, i ended up buying a shadow with a broken lcd and just replace the wheel board with the ribbon.
That's pretty much what I thought, turns out now that the home button doesn't work when the screen is shut and the screen is showing high contrast, and wifi just recently crapped out on me (after 20 restarts/pulling out battery, it might work for 5 minutes). I haven't abused this thing, WTF HTC???
Just call T-mobile. u can exchange your phone for new one. I already have 3rd one after having some problems with prev ones without spending a penny
Hi
Thank you for reading this. I appreciate every suggestion you give.
I know there was a post discussing the exact same problem, but I'm discussing a possible repair/replacement on my own.
----Here is the issue-------
To put it simple, the screen tone flicks between slight pink and slight green.
I think what happened is, the screen generally stays in a normal tone which is slightly pink tinted(which is very fine and comfortable), then at some point, the brightness of red pixels have a sudden drop so the screen turns to a greenish hue. The green hue would not stay for long, for 5 second to a minute it would change back to the normal tone.
It's very slight, and sometimes it's hard to notice especially when the brightness is high. But at night this could be really an issue. It is really distracting at night!
There is no way to reproduce the problem, it just happens randomly, and could be as frequently as every other 6 seconds.

------Question-------
Now, my note does not have a warranty, and the problem comes out of the box. I heard Samsung charges about US$270 here for replacement. Well, a new note just cost about $450. Now I'm a high school student without lots of money so I want to fix it myself.
Possibilities I found:
1. Super AMOLED issue, which can be fixed by a screen replacement
2. a poor contact between screen and the board
3. The wacom layer interferes with the screen, which need to replace the whole screen assembly
4. A bad motherboard
Any idea about how to fix it? Thanks!
Bought a screen on ebay, took it to a friend that replaced it soo bad that he even cracked it.
Other than that the screen is ok.
But there is a problem when I block the screen pressing the power button, after pressing it again to resume what I was doing it won't turn on.
I mean, it turns on but with stripes and lines black and white.
Initially is all black, then it turn slowly white. the touch digitizer is working but the lcd has serious problems.
Turning completely off the phone reset this.
Someone can help me find out what it can possibly be?
Some wrong contacts?
Thanks so much
Did you fix it?
My D802 after two years of display replacement, started to perform laggy and I can't unlock the screen once it is locked. I can see a low white light in the background but the display dont turn on.
i have broken my screen (touch amoled, all the screen) and i bought another one from ebay
looks original and arrived in a samsung service pack box
this new display have something strange in colors when the backlight is low, looks like...don't know how to explain but the colors are not perfect as they were with the factory screen...somehow a little bit green (always when light is low)
anyway sometimes now, like one time every week, after i while i'm using it, the screen go crazy and when i touch it, i see (developer, show touch dots) random touch around my fingers
some days ago this problem happened when i was in a call, me and my interlocutor, we heard a strange noise like bzzzzzrbrbzbrbrbzzzz when i was touching the screen, so there was the touch crazy problem and some strange noise when i was touching the screen
a reboot and everything is ok for some day....
i hope you had understood my poor english
opinions? what can i do? :crying:
ps. i have a 9506
It's probably a fake screen. That would explain your color problem and touch problem.

the screen resolution is correct and with high backlight the colors are perfect, looks like original on the front and on the back
how to check if it's fake?
Hi, everyone. I'm new on XDA. I need some help to fix issues on my phone. So long story short, I dropped my 9T and had the the screen replaced. However, the replacement screen has a very weird green tint on most brightness level, which from what I have researched, only appears on 9T with overclocked screen. Mine is not overclocked. The green tint only disappear at either under 10% brightness level or above 80%. However, I am very sure this is software problem because (1) the green tint disappear when the fingerprint sensor is touched (when it lights up) on the lockscreen, and if I release the fingerprint, before it unlocks, the tint disappear. It become normal. This in on MIUI
(2) on AOSP (I have unlocked the bootloader and tried different custom roms but yield no result) the same behaviour occured. When fingerpirnt is touched on low brightness, tint disappear.
Then I also have this touch problem where practically, if I touch 2 points on the screen which is close, the screen will register my touch as a small swipe. This is really annoying when typing, and I cannot play some rhytm games too because of this. Again, I am quite confident that this is software problem.
Similar problem happened years ago on a OnePlus One phone. Some said it was resolved after an update. Some said OnePlus has fixed it. Others doesn't experience it at all : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/faulty-touch-screen-typing-fast-t2829175
Maybe the default driver from XIaomi isn't compatible with my replacement screen? Or other problems?
I have actually claimed the repair warranty once, because the previous screen also had this problem, plus a blue colour on the side. But the same thing happened here (the green tint and touch problem)
Ps : I am confident the AMOLED panel of the replacement screen is original or at least of the same quality as the original beacuse the colour is very vibrant just like the original one.
Can someone help me with this issue? I am willing to provide any logs or system info or anything.
Thank you! Any help or response is appreciated!!

Please go to the place who replaced the device and ask them to check the screen in another device or ask them to clean the contacts with 99% isopropanol and re attach it.
Hello! I'm having the exact same problem on my Mi A3 - green tinted screen + faulty touchscreen after replacing it, all in the same conditions as yours. What did you do? Did you manage to fix your screen? I'm guessing your solution is probably adequate for me too!
If anyone could help me out with this issue, it'd be really nice! In the store, they replaced my screen 3 times already (the last time, it was supposedly an "original screen", more expensive and harder to get) and the problem still remains... I'm getting desperate over this!
