Hey guys, accidentally I dropped my s7 edge, not a big hit but in a little part of the screen, there's a lil' colorful stain, I guess it's because the hit, should I replace the screen or just leave it like that, or how could I repair it?
Thanks for reading
You the one who decide if you can live with it or not .

You could have it repaired but you do risk the waterproofing. If it were me I would be annoyed by it but if you can live with it I don't think it's worth the risk... then again I haven't seen the stain

I'm fearing the worst, but I thought I'd come and see if anyone had the same problem or a possible fix...
Basically a few times I have absent mindedly put my phone in my back pocket and then sat on it! The screen has not broken or cracked, however when I have removed it from my pocket there is a dark black mark that gradually grows smaller and then disappears. I thought nothing more of it until the phone was rebooting the next time, when I noticed on the brilliant white HTC loading screen a small white spot. As I mentioned before, I've accidentally done this a few times and now have a number of these white spots that are only noticeable when the screen is white.
Is anyone familiar with this issue? And more importantly is it fixable?
cheers

if it's LCD screen, could be permanent... I dunno.
could be damaged lcd
lucky u havnt cracked it when sitting on it like what i did to my ipod. but on my old omnia i also have bright white spot on the screen
I had the same problem and I think is not because of you sat on it. I got it too but without miss treat the phone, so I went to HTC and they changed a new lcd for me.
i have the same marks on my bootscreen also thought it comes from pressure..
If it is the LCD that is damaged, does anyone know if it will be expensive to get replaced? I've just bought the Galaxy S and this is killing my chances of selling my HD2 for much

depends on how you define "expensive".
yea, LCD is one of the most expensive components of a phone, I'm afraid.

Same happened to mine. Back pocket idiocy.
I fly quite often and when the plane reaches 30000 feet the mark disappears completely. I tried opening mine but I't not worth the risk since the screen still works perfectly (touch as well) and I live in South Africa where the HD2 is barely available (I bought mine in Germany). Also when you twist the screen the mark grows/shrinks.
If anyone finds some smart solution please post. Although the phone works perfectly it's rather sad to have such a beautiful screen stained.
Ive also got this problem. I've had it for the last 2 months. I can only notice it on white screens and its barely noticable then. I can't be bothered sending it off because its so mild. I keep my phone in my front pocket and im miffed as to how it happened though.

ive also got 2 white spots and its visible in white background.
Never dropped it or sat on it.
Its always taken care of and kept in leather case.
Like above poster, i cant be bothered sending it back as im fromi australia and bought it from Handtec UK.
i also have 3 white spots visible on white screens... its really anoying seing this white spots...
I had it on mine too!They replaced the LCD.I've waited 1 mounth.

HTC state that my phone is damaged and I have to pay for repair
HTC want £178.68 to replace the MB and send it back to me.
I haven't paid yet as I spent £500 on the phone when it was launched.
When you pay that much you look after it.
It's in my jeans front pocket ( not tight ) most of the time, on a glass bedside table when home and if I take it into the bathroom I wrap it in a towel to ensure no moisture damage.
Look at my phone screen ( image was taken on a webcam not good quality )
The screen was like this from as early as I can remember but put up with it until now.
I have the same problem as U guys. those spots really annoy me. If you find out how to fix it it would be awesome. I woluld send it to htc but i bought mine on polish ebay and i found out that its blocked in uk (report as stolen and sell) i have got a buying proof but i dont know they will accept this. what you guys think?
Hello!
I have the same problems. A few white marks on the screen. I don't have warranty and i hope's to fix that problem by myself.If anyone have an answer please post it!!! Tnx guys, this is my first message on this forum.
Have the same.. It actually seems like the backlight led underneath the spot (on the bottom of the screen) is actually brighter than the rest..
I also started noticing a white spot on the middle of my screen as of a month now. Had the phone as of november last year, and really, this annoys me.
Nothing bad happened to my phone.
Does anyone know whether this is covered by warranty or not? I'd say once more white spots appear something must be wrong in the design/hardware of the phone and HTC should fix it. For free.
isnt it a dead pixel or something ?
like with computer/tv screens.
and a lcd screen with digitizer inc shipping costs something like 87 euro.
its pretty easy to replace by yourself if you use the step by step movie from HTC
ive done it last week and was working again in 20 minutes
(screen cracked btw)
Where do you buy the LCD screen with digitizer? Because now I have white spot marks + my touchscreen isn't even working. I think my digitizer is broken..
i have bought mine on ebay.com
most of them comming from hongkong , its not listed anymore in my ebay account because i bought it more then 60 days ago.
i know i was lazy to fit it earlyer haha
htc hd2 screen or htc hd2 lcd etc
you will find them, just watch for the shipping costs.
they have a custom to rip you off with it
goodluck
I recently noticed in my galaxy s4 that the gap between the screen and the bezel gets thicker in the side where the power button is near the bottom corner(i added a picture so you will know what i mean) and i just wanted to know if you have this too.
i can't get this device replaced because where i live cosmetic issues are not covered by warranty.

Ive noticed it before when i had a s3 took it back got another and it wasnt there just try and take it back and ask for a replacement if you say you cannot because of where you live cosmetic issues are not covered by warranty say there is other problems like hardware issues etc.
Thank you very much, but still , if i tell them that i have hardware problems they will send the device to the lab and they will send me a new one only if they will find an issue and won't be able to fix it .
S i'm asking again: do you have the problem i noted in the thread too?
Hello, thanks for reading, i bought a refurbished D800 and when i touch the screen i get like some blueish pixels, if i softly touch it no weird stuff appears on the screen. Is it the digitalizer or the LCD panel? does anybody know?, the pictures are attached. Thanks for reading!
Edit: exact same thing happening to this guy (check the video), even tho mine is much more subtle on the spots: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/help/screen-weird-spots-problem-t2907316
My brother had the exact same problem with his D802 and in his case it was the battery which was getting bigger and bitter since it was defect. After replacing the battery, the problem was gone.
Since you bought a refubished phone, I think it could also be a wrong digitizer or LCD which got assemled.

Now that you say about the battery getting bigger and bigger, i noticed that the glass isnt where it should be, its pushed up, if i leave the screen on in complete darkness i can see the backlight filtering trough the cellphone's borders. Im gonna take it to a local shop to see whats wrong with it. Thanks for replying!!

I forgot to mention that in my brother case the glass was also pushed up. So pressing my thumbs for you, that it wont be that expensive
Defective battery bro!

My wife has a S6 Edge, i have a S6Edge+. Both has the click sound when pushing harder, just 2 centimeter above the home button
Exactly this place. So it's normal or what?

No, that's not normal. Claim your warranty.
i tried, but its non eu, sm-g928c. I spoke with samsung support and they said, cant do nothing with that. Have to send it to africa or somewhere else...

I don't know if it is normal. You have to push really hard to get the click sound.
hard you mean like 500-600g
it almost sounds like, 'my car gets dents in the bodywork if I push on it really hard' - why do you need to push on it so hard? Is this a review model you were sent to test how tough the device is? I could understand a problem if it's under normal use, but 'You have to push really hard to get the click sound.' doesn't sound like normal use?
I have similar problem with my Edge+ but only on the top right corner. When pushing on this area of display, a bit hard but nothing extreme/ not like trying to bend it, I hear something like a glue unsticking.....
Figured this out when trying to apply the screen protector.
What can it be?
I heard some stories of motherboard unsticking from the screen due to moments of phone getting hot, could be this?
ok, and if I go the service what shall I tell? It is very hard to describe the exact simptom and service people are often tempted to treat such situations superficially....
If it is bothering you, take it to service center and ask for replacement if possible.. 3 months of my use of S6 edge+, I don't have any serious trouble on it but sometimes the device is getting hot because of heave usage. I just need to bring it to deep sleep for 15 min and everything are going to back to normal.
I made a thread about this months ago but noone really took notice.
Basically it means your phone screen is starting to collapse cos you press too hard on it when tapping.
I press hard naturally too like elephamt thumbs and it happened on my 2 tablets which dont have gorilla glass. The screen sinks slightly.
On my s3 and s4 it does not happen because they have gorilla glass and a hard flat substrate underneath. The s6 edge plus has a curved screen thereby a plastic substrate underneath which flexes if pressed too hard.
My 2 tablets the components behind it started to collapse making the back potrude slightly. I have no idea what will happen with the s6 edge plus maybe the screen will.collapse.or.push the components further back like my tablet but you have to start learning to press slightly.
Curved screen is not ideal for heavy pressers. I'll get a flat screen next time like note 7 or something
Hi.
I'm from Portugal. My s7 edge screen had some pink stripes on it and i already know that its a faulty screen. But recently i had broke my screen. So i think the terms of screen replacment could not be apllied now. Correct me if im wrong.
So, could someone tell me where i can get a new screen? I know its asking too much but i only can find screens for 290€. It possible to grab one with a lower cost? Thank you

hi
the answer is no
thats the actual cost of Lcd
Broke the device within one week of purchase and it set me back 200 dollars in India. You can do the math now.
