I have the same problem and I don't find any solution.

A third of my bottom half of the screen is flickering on low brighness. I tried everything I could find, no luck fixing it.

I know this may not be much help, but this is actually a pretty common issue sadly. The cause is most likey the AMOLED screen which could have a tiny scratch or a wire not connecting properly (pretty much a vast array of issues that it could be).

Pretty sure it is a AMOLED problem... maybe a tiny crack from normal everyday abuse the phone goes through.
The phone is approaching its 4th Birthday so no surprises there.

X7500 display led problem!!!

Well this could be really e serious problem:
using my X7500 I noticed the display light level decreasing a little bit. I supposed it could be a wrong impression of mine. So I tried to push the upper side of metal case and I noticed the light coming up. Then I made a little pression on the same edge (near HTC brand as well the lower opposite side) and the light decreased again.
I assume there must be a problem with led position under metal cover. It's eneogh a little pression to have problem with light display. Maybe it could depend on "shock" due to the keyboard hook-up that could damage led connector inside...
Please help and tell me if you have noticed same problem...
Please any suggestions for this problem?

Tried the suggestion you made but no problems here either asci. Maybe your unit is faulty. Try returning it due to electrical shortage or something similar. It certainly does not sound normal.

Yeah, tried that - absolutely nothing happening.
I turned it back to assistence...it seems to be an isolated case, and they could tell me when I'll have it back.
HTC customer care: bad assistence:
1. they didn't solve my problem yet;
2. they didn't answer to my mail.
I purchased an HTC X7500 on 21.05.2007. After two days it immediately showed some problems related to LCD display. In fact on making a light pressure all around display metal case, especially near the hardware buttons on left side, the LCD background light became weak as it loosed brightness.
I brought it immediately to a technical customer care for reparation. After two weeks it returned back but the problem related to display brightness still persist.
1. The backlight is weak and display is not so bright and not stable too as the very first time I tested it. Now when I connect 4 in 1 cable or mini USB one, and some time even when a set stylus in its lodging, by doing some little movement of the cables connected or of the stylus in its lodging, the backlight display increases to its normal brightness level for while after that it turns itself weak so that display colors appear not vivid and with a lack of brightness. Before testing it I verified that all backlight levels were set on maximum level with any power option.
2. When I browse through menu icons and select them (without launching application) their appearance is not stable and it seem to flicker.
3. If I set a white background on display it seems to be completely crossed by horizontal stripes and its appearance (color and brightness) is poor.
So today I had to come back to HTC customer care point to leave it for the second time in twenty day.
I would like to point out that I am a professional user and I’m really disappointed about it. I had to bring my device to a technical assistance point twice and the first time, I had it back not repaired.
Considering that, and also considering its high price and that it came with original unmistakable manufacturing faults, I am asking to HTC for a replacement of the device with another X7500 perfectly working.
Best Regards.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out. I hope HTC doesn't become so big that they stop listening and taking care of their customer. I would hate to look for another high end phone manufacturer.
Arrived today...replaced.

display light spot

Hi
yesterday I saw a light spot (that it's visible only with white screen) in the top-right side of the screen, under the power bottom.
it's visible only at high ° of inclination, if I look my tablet directly (90°) it isn't visible
I don't know how it's possible that, has someone info about it?

It's possible that the Digitizer might not be fully contacted at that particular point in the tab. I have seen a couple of posts about this. This is a hardware/manufacture defect more than likely, or something that happened over time and usage. Considering the location near an often used spot, this is probably true.
I would suggest if you can live with it, then just ignore it.
If it really bothers you, then you can remove the back cover of the tablet, and check for loose connection fasteners around the display/digitizer areas. But really, if you have to look really hard at certain angles, in the right light and color, then I would ignore it. Not worth the trouble.

Screen hue change issue diagnosis and feasible fix

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!

[Q] Viewing Angles?

Hi guys, sorry if this has been posted, tried searching and couldn't find anything.
Anyways, I want to know something about the phones screen and I would like to conduct a little test.
Could you hold your phone in front if your face and turn the phone to your right (as you would if you wanted to show someone the screen full on who was sitting on your right) and look if the screen inherits a blue tint. Repeat this but to the left and see if the screen inherits a yellow tint.
It is seriously noticable on my device and I want to know if it is just me. Thank you.
P.S. I have had my phone for around a week and the bottom 1/3rd still has a slight yellow tinting. Any idea is this fades or is this just a dud LCD?

I have the same tinting effects when I angle the phone, it's noticable but it doesnt really bother me.
This has already been confirmed...mine does it too.
+1 another one here. It is a slight tint though nothing to worry about or notice, unless you are looking for the tint.
The viewing angles on this phone aren't the greatest if that's what you're getting at :/

S7 edge weird blurry screen

Hi everyone one
I'm not sure this is the right section for my topic, if not I'm sorry and pls direct me.
So I got this phone from my brother whith a weid screen he has no idea how he got this problem, it had a charging issue that he already repaired after that this problem appeared
The phone screen looks a bit weird no scratches or visible damag. but the screen is blurry the contrast is a so hight that the colors are a bit off and are not seamless, and there is this stains as if the screen is brocken (see atached pictures), so far if I hide the upper bar the rest of the screen will looks normal as if there's no problem with it
Any Idea on how to fix this problem is the screen damaged ?
Thanks in advance
No fixing that I doubt, unless the cable for the screen is loose, in which case I still would not try to fix it yourself unless you're very patient and have steady hands.
To fix, you need screen replacement.
According to samsung technician at service center, the purple strain damage are caused by having the phone being press on or under high pressure such as putting the phone inside tight jean pocket or being sit on etc.
