What is wrong with this oneplus 6t screen? (link in thread) - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

https://vimeo.com/335039371
Bought this phone used. $400 Canadian for a oneplus 6t 256gb hdd and 8gb ram. Note I was told he had the screen replaced. Fingerprint reader also doesn't work. See the lines on the screen? The skinny vertical and thicker one up top running horizontal? It's definitely the screen itself. Perhaps backside of the screen. Note you can only see these lines with black background / phone screen off and only under certain lighting. With phone on and anything other than black you cannot see at all.
Is this a botched screen repair? Fingerprint sensor is on backside of phone. But u need to take off back to disconnected the screen cable at back. And these lines.... Dirty inside of screen or what would you guess???

Probably a screen not made by OnePlus. I've never seen that before.

Return it asap, if you can.

Defo not returning it for $400 Canadian. Phone as is could sell for $600 lol.
I'm just wondering what people think it may be. Like the first reply, likely just a bad screen. Replace it for $50 or whatever and will be all good.
The actual good thing about replacing the screen is you have to take off the back of the phone anyway. And well, while they are back there I can have them check the fingerprint sensor. Maybe the ribbon cable is just loose. Could fix both things in one shot.....
If fingerprint readers are available online and are like $20 then to be honest, I could just buy now and bring with me when I go back to screen repair....

Then sell asap. OP7 is few days away, I believe. You can already score 6t used on eBay for $450-500 USD if you are patient. Your potential profit will only get smaller once 7s are released and the repair costs associated with your phone.

Also, genuine OP 6t screen replacement by OP is around $143 USD (screen is $90, plus taxes, shipping and handling).
Don't know about FP reader.

Yeah. All considered. It's very close and probably bordering an even deal for the hassle. $500 USD is $675 CAD (for reference). I paid essentially $300USD for the phone. And ya, official repairs is what I'm looking into. 7 day turnaround or so and then like $130USD or so. Will end up being around $450USD and some wait.
Hmm
oh and researching more i actually believe the fingerprint reader is fine. Probably does not work because of non official screen. If it were bad though, it's a $20 part and wouldn't charge extra labor, apparently

My s8 had marks like that. It was from the wallet case and cards I had in it.

OMG! You may have nailed it. I remember the original owner took it out of a wallet case. Did you find any "fix" for this? Rubbing alcohol or anything?????

I've read though that even aftermarket screen protectors cause the fingerprint reader to not work. So installing a different screen (not official oneplus) could cause this I'd think. Also to get to the front of the screen and replace it I believe you need to get at the back and take the back off, to disconnect the screen.

Riiight. Well this is worth a try before I send to oneplus to fix for $200. Or go to town with rubbing alcohol and see.
It's almost like screen burn in on a tv. But physically. On the phone layer so you'd think you could fix it...
I'm gonna text the guy to confirm. But there must be a way. I'll google.

If the sensor is on the back of the phone; it's not a 6T.
It might be a 6, but a 6T has the fingerprint sensor under the screen.

I guess what I meant is where you connect or disconnect the fingerprint reader, where you were reading it as where the actual sensor is

He didn't say connected on the back of the phone, but that the sensor was on the back of the phone.
Anyway if it's reporting right my interpretation of what he said doesn't matter.

Yeah haha. You were not wrong here. We just misinterpreted each other. The actual sensor vs where it connects ?

I tried a bunch of stuff to try and rid of the perma smudge or whatever you wanna call it, with no luck. I can see why a screen protector would fix this though as you can only see the lines in reflective lighting. A screen protector usually limits glare. I think this is the way to go vs a $200 screen repair ?

FP scanner replacement..

My FP scanner stopped working recently...figured it was software related so i went ahead and wiped the stats..restarted, installed new custom rom...no cigar.
I have dropped my phone in water so im assuming its water damage.
Anyone got any ideas where i can get a replacement and get it fixed?
Thanks!
Same here, I can't find a solution at all. Flashing new roms dont fix it neither does wiping data

If water has affected the hardware, i doubt that you can ever fix this problem( if i were you, i would dismantle the phone and try and clean-and completely dry any water off it- the FP scanner and see if it works....but i would not advise you to do such a thing if you are not comfortable with it).
If, however it's a software issue, Flashing a new ROM would have fixed this problem.
The good news here though is that you can use the traditional lock, which many Atrix users prefer over the FP scanner.
another option is too look for a bricked phone or one with a cracked screen for parts to replace the FP scanner.
funny thing about water damage....i dropped it in may...literally 3 months ago..and now its causing an issue...guess i have to live with no FP scanner..

Just got a replacement from them for about $30 with the back as well for good measure. Friend from the US shipped it up here to save.
my old one actually does work haven't determined why my sensor gives me issues (off balance so it records swipes that aren't happening - not sure what the cause is cause it just goes away after some adjustment). the point being you are in toronto so you can have mine for $10 and i would install it as well.

you might not need both, but to be safe spend the extra $5. I haven't used the one I bought since it appears to be working fine.
This phone is very easy to torn apart.
yeah its actually one of the easiest out there
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Motorola-Atrix-4G-Teardown/4964/1
you won't have to go beyond step 6 for this repair.
There is an onlilne outfit that supplies replacement parts for the Atrix, but doing so is not for the faint of heart.. The site is located at www.repairsuniverse.com
I considered going through them to replace my glass when it lost a battle with gravity and a concrete slab, and noticed at the time, they have just about any part that you could need, including the board that contains the FP scanner.

The sticker like cover of my scanner is peeling away. Is this the same as the cover that they have for sale?
you mean the black put your finger against? the cover is actually underneath that.

I bought it before I saw your post. You are right. The cover actually rests underneath the FP scanner itself.
In stead of buying the entire scanner, what I did was super glue the sticker back down. It's not exactly pretty, but the scanner still works flawlessly.

What went wrong with my Nexus 6p?

Hey Guys,
I noticed something strange with my phone this morning and it has gotten progressively worse throughout the day. Has anyone encountered something like this? Originally this started off with a large set of vertical green pixels (as seen in the first picture). Then a further degrading of this with purple blotches as seen in the 2nd pic, and I'm pretty sure my display is dead now as I can swipe up and feel the haptic feedback but can't see anything on the screen.

The phone isn't bent in any way so I'm guessing that the connection inside the phone went bad. I know a repair guy who is pretty handy but I want to see if anyone knows what I am up against.
Thanks!

My phone is under extended warranty and I had the same/similar issue.
I didn't see it happen but my screen was dark and I could not get it to display anything.
I shipped in and they sent a replacement.

Hello definitely a hardware issue. At least I already seen this before and the screen was dead. My wife used to have an LG G2 and it displayed those weird purple smudges all over the screen after one of our daughter crushed it walking on the device.
Do you eventually sit on chairs with your phone in your back pocket?
Good luck...

I'm definitely not under warranty as I bought this 2nd hand off eBay. Was someone's phone that had the Google Account lock on it that I bypassed.

I wouldn't buy a phone 2nd hand off Ebay. I hear to many bad things. Use Swappa in the future brotha!
That is most certainly a defective digitizer. I'm guessing a stress was placed to the digitizer at some point or heat/cold maybe?

Bought it for $400 in Jan 2016 when it was 3-4 months old since someone didn't know how to bypass the Google Factory reset lock. Most other 128GB were going for $650+ at the time. Ebay/ Swappa would have ended up in the same place regardless. I don't blame Ebay for this experience but I have not bought many phones from them regardless. At least 6+ purchases on Swappa and all have been great. Taking to my local repair guy who I trust very much who quoted me for $195 to do the work and replace the board which is worth it to me.

This ironically has been in a Supcase Unicorn Beetle case since day 1. I am guessing that the phone being on the larger side of my front right pocket definitely has pressure put on it which likely caused this.

Problems with the OP5 regarding build quality.

Hey xda,
I received my device yesterday finally.
After all those good and also bad reviews I was still happy to get my OP5. Right now I'm astonished by the performance of this device. The camera is fine I don't see a point in arguing it's bad. It's not.
I use my 5 for 24hrs now and I didn't need to start my computer once because I needed more power or anything. I love it. However I still have a few concerns, which I haven't seen being mentioned anywhere here yet.
First, my volume key is rattling, it's not tight. I can slightly move it with my finger (about 0.3mm). It's not a huge problem but my 3 year old HTC m8 never had this problem, even though I dropped it a hundred times and also having very similar body and keys.
Second the aluminum/metal frame around the cameralens and the glas is already loosing its color. I mean I put this phone in my pocket twice. There's has never been huge force on this part yet. The most of the time I just leave it at home on a table on a microfiber cloth and still the color is already flaking of.
Do you have similar/the same problems? I think about contacting the support.
Thank you in advance.
Here is a picture of what I'm talking about.
Yeah, that seems like a warranty issue to me. I'd be contacting OP about it.
Or just scrape off the rest of the black paint on the camera housing - free and cheap chrome bling!
If that is genuinely just in your pocket with nothing else touching the device (e.g. keys/coins) then definitely a warranty issue, could it be the stud/rivet on a pair of jeans as you slide it in/out? My volume button has no perceptible play in it.

Thank you for your reply. I think I will return it then, if this was a problem to everyone I would have just lived with it.
Do you mean the dent on the upper part of the camera frame, in the middle? I think that's intentional for whatever reason.

Good to know, just knew it was intentional.
// Second the aluminum/metal frame around the cameralens and the glas is already loosing its color. //
I had this out of the box .. not sure what to do since i have a feeling this will happen over time regardless.
Mine arrived with scratches on the camera bezel. Most noticeable is on the top of the bezel, in the middle, where there is an indentation for the NFC Antenna. It seems this is very common based on thread on OnePlus's own forums.
I first opened this thread, and an admin closed is saying it is normal - this is unacceptable:

My phone also came with scratches on the right side of the camera bezel.
OnePlus has opened an RMA ticket for replacement - I have to send it to Acer to inspect to determine if it is worth of a replacement.
Here is the kicker... I have to pay for the shipping! I should not be out of pocket for a manufacturing defect. I need to call in and see what they are willing to do.

Thanks for your reply, didn't see it earlier. Here in Europe you don't have to pay for your warranty in the first 2 weeks after buying at all, it's a law. Sucks you have to pay. However I contacted the support and got a return ticket for a repair. But after hearing that the jelly screen is 'normal' and won't be fixed (can't be), I canceled my repair ticket and went for a return ticket. I'm really pissed - I paid 570 Euros for a cheaply build Device. I mean it's fast and camera is great, sure. But the build quality is really underwhelming.
And after thinking about all this for a bit I'm pretty sure my device was broken even before I got it, I probably just didn't noticed it when I unboxed it.

no LED backlight on most of screen

Hello all,
I dropped my phone in a shallow puddle and put it in rice for a few days. All seemed well, everything works 100%. However the LED backlight isn't working on most the screen. I dropped it off at a repair shop. The took it completely apart, cleaned everything up and they saw some irreparable damage on the circuit board for the LED backlights. Absolutely everything else works 100%. I also have a week old poetic case and another slim case, the extra battery kit and there is no scratches on the screen or body of the v20. How much would I be able to get for it? I'm looking to move away from Android for a while. I've been playing with my coworkers iPhone and I dig it.
maybe $50 in parts... maybe another $50 for accessories.

Screen cracked for no reason

I'm seating at my desk with my phone on my side over the mousepad and after hearing a very faint "pop" sound I notice there is a very clean single crack running from the top to the bottom of the screen. The phone was bought a month ago, never dropped, and it was not even being touched when it cracked. What could be the reason? Some type or thermal stress or just a manufacturing defect?
At the moment I'm living in a country without official Xiaomi support (Japan), is there anything I can do about it?
I'm quite surprised by what happened and I have never heard of a screen on a new phone cracking for no apparent reason.

I once put a Sony MP3 player at the window, in winter. At the morning it was cracked. I gotowe beating from my dad for breaking the christmas gify a dat after receiving it. Still wish these days came back though.
It's probably a manufacturing defect. Where did you buy the phone? You could try explaining the situation, but I think it would be a huge hassle, just take your loss and spend $30 on a new display.

I need only the digitizer, the LCD itself looks fine. Would it still not work well? I have never replaced a digitizer (or a screen) by myself, but on such a cheap phone I may as well try. Or is it an almost impossible task and I should just replace the whole screen assembly?
Also,isn't there a software setting for calibrating the digitizer? Using it can't I get the original performance?
I bought a €20 full hd screen for my Ascend P7 and it looked the same as the original. $30 is a normal price for a phone LCD, only OLED displays are much more expensive (another reason to avoid OLED screens on phones)

Not recommended, you save maybe 20$, but you still risk breaking your screen and having to wait another 3 weeks on a new one.
