Improve Screen - HTC Flyer - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Hello,
I have a best buy Wifi Flyer. The screen has a yellow tint on it. Super annoying and noticeable when you open the keyboard and compare to my Desire HD. Also noticeable when I go to google.com
To fix this I downloaded screen adjuster and set blue to 10, all others to zero.
Thats the setting I use, if anyone finds something better, let me know!

Don't know of anyone else that ever had this problem , but thanks for the info.

Yea, I don't know many ppl who have mentioned this. Hmm... I wonder if there are two diff screen manufactures for the Flyer like the Sensation :\
See the following for other references to yellow tint:

The Video demonstrates the screens yellow tint. Very noticeable on the few flyers I have used/seen. Very annoying too...
Any how, will report back.
Edit:
Can someone do the following:

I have a Sharp panel. BTW... the 10blue might be too much, I readjusted to 5. Seems a bit better.

i did that and there was nothing in the output about PANEL_ID
i even emailed the result to myself so i can check it properly, no panel id type when using dmesg

Sorry...
Don't look for that exact phrase... Just search for "panel" There should only be 2 instances.

yeppers, that worked...i also have a Sharp panel
doesn't look yellow to me???

I have had that same yellow tint, but sort of got used to it. Seems like a lot of people don't mind it because it isn't necessarily a defect, just that the default settings are a more "warm" temperature as opposed to "cool". I think it is just a preference thing, but thanks for the info! I downloaded it, but can't get it to correct perfectly. And I need to set blue closer to +20 in order to get near the coloring of my macbook pro screen.

Oh wow +20 :O
+20 seems very blueish to me lol.
Anyone else have an opinion? I'd like to see what could eliminate the yellow... but haven't found a setting as of yet.

THANKS
This is the best tip ever !
Just one word . Thanks!

Oh no! Not light bleed!!! Say it ain't so!

I got my brand new 3vo and the first thing I see is light bleed!
It is along the bottom of the screen. I'm scared to boot the other one I ordered.

I can't believe people have had this phone for like 36 hours and this is the first thread!!!
Yep the 3D does have light bleed along the bottom of the screen and up the sides. Doesn't appear to be as bad as the Evo 4G but it is there.
And I don't thing the power button is any different either. It the same hard to find one on my Evo 4g.

Your saying in a dark room the bottom edge of the phone doesn't glow a bit?? I bet if you check especially with a lighter image on the phone you will see it.

Yup, same here. It's minor, and doesn't really bother me. Barely noticeable.
The powerbutton though, how's it hard to find? It's always in the same spot and never moves!
yes, this is one of the things i wish htc fixed but i have it too.. im going to ask for a new one because i have a white spot near the home button from the light.. guess the black under the glass didnt cover that little pin size spot.
as for the light bleed... i always use a case on my phone, do i dont see it much. sucks that its there i guess but not a deal breaker

lol.. the Evo had it, the Thunderbolt has it.. im not surprised.
Ya it has it a little bit but It doesn't bother me one bit cuz I don't walk around pitch black rooms to notice it, lol. But I gotta say I CAN'T WAIT till this phone is rooted cuz it's already AWESOME!!!!
Mine is the same way, a little light bleeding from the capacitive buttons, but not a big deal at all.
I see it in a well lit room. I had to go in a dark room with my dslr to get the picture. maybe I'll get a case but I sure do like to streak.
Swyped from my Atari 2600 3D
No bleed with my Otterbox covering the bottom of the phone. =)
^^ lmfao @ swiped from my atari 2600 3d!!!!!
I have it too...but its really really minimum. If I use my case, its all covered up anyway...no biggie..

To each there own. Personally I don't like companies doing shotty work on any part of my device. It's not bad but when I'm laying in bed on the EVO it was annoying and could make watching videos not good. Like I said I'm weird but I like my products made with care and without batch defects.
That being said it not as bad as the original but its a shame they couldn't fix such a stupid issue.

Of course it's not a big deal, but it's really something that just shouldn't happen. When cheaper phones by HTC can have no leaks, then it means it's all just a matter of quality control.
Both phones have light bleed at the bottom. It's there. It is very hard to photograph. I won't go into why it is so hard to photograph. But it shows up very well in a bright room.
No light bleed here whatsoever

[Q] screen

So I just have a quick question...I noticed back when I had my sensation that there were 2 different companies that manufactured their screens. There was a huge noticeable difference. One looked fine from all angles and one looked washed out if you tilted the phone. I've noticed on my amaze that if you tilt the phone the screen gets a little washed out. Does this happen to anyone else? Does your serial number start with HT19?

Mine starts with HT19 and I don't see what you're talking about with the washing out.
And by the way do you have a black Amaze?

Cause I think the HT19 just means it's a black Amaze.
My sister has a white one and it reads SH1A for first 4.

I do have the black. When I had a couple different sensations some had HT16 and some HT15 and that's how you could tell the difference between the screen manufacturers.
What I'm saying is that if you look straight on at the status bar for example and then tilt it slightly it seems to get washed out.
By washed out do you mean a very noticeable color shift ? Mine definitely isn't like an IPs display, but it's still decent. My nexus one has way better viewing angles but horrible glare.

Yeah I mean its noticeable but not terrible. I just wanted to see if it was just me or if they were making 2 different screens again.

I went through the whole inferior and superior screen with the MT4G and I am NOT looking forward to going through it with the Amaze. Lol.
So if there ARE two different displays....

could we get some screenshots of the good screens for comparisons please? i went through 3 different amazes and they all seem to have the bad/washed out screen but i do sure hope they have good screens on some like how the mytouch4g was.. i went through 5 different mytouch4g's just to get the good screen lol.. i just wanna know if there are good screens out there so it would be worth it to keep exchanging to find a good screen and if not then i wont need to keep exchanging

[Q] Is this normal (just curious)

I was reading around the S3 forum.. notice some guy making a big noise about the screen flaw...
Here is the problem... i mistakenly drop my S3 on the back(lucky not front facing), nothing happen button everything ok.. but suddenly I notice the screen has a black border around it.. before it drop there was no border around it. So i'm really curious is this normal or there is a setting to remove it. If u can notice the picture i took of my phone.. any S3 owner out there can clarify for me this is normal or not?
Mine has the same black border. Didnt notice it before your post though
Thats odd, mine doesnt. Could be faulty. Email Samsung and add the pic. Dont tell them you dropped it tho.

Yeah it's supposed to have a 2mm black border but weirdly most people never notice it until it gets pointed out.
I think it's normal.
I have them too.
It's probably hardware related so don't expect a fix.
I understand there suppose to be a black border but look at my picture it seems to be larger than usual.. who should i email to in smasung.. i'm from Malaysia
Does factory reset solve the problem?

Yes there was!
Picture's too small so can't really see but it looks normal, and like I said most people don't notice the border until it's pointed out and then when you notice it looks huge.
it not suppose to be so thick? i believe and its only on the lock screen...
Try to upload a better picture.
There IS a black border its normal...
No, that's not normal. The border isn't supposed to be that large. The border on mine is barely noticeably against the white of the border.

Here is a picture of the phone that shows the border. Its taken from the forum, not my picture. But mine looks the same.
Maybe this is a clearer picture? This is only at the lock screen... i remember b4 the incident it not suppose to be like this... I've also done a screen shot of it.. u notice it has a BIG black border around it... i'm seriously thinking does factory reset solve this problem.. cause its only at the lock screen

Pocophone without light bleed pics?

Hi,
Can anyone share a picture of a pocophone without the light bleed issue. Just wanted to compare how bad it is on mine.
According to the user, this one doesnt bleed.
My phone doesn't have that light beeding issue, I purchased it in first sale.

Can you take a pic of the phones with a full gray color displayed on screen. ? Best way to check bleed.

I am also interested in this!
I have had 2 Poco phones and they both had screen bleeding issue at the bottom of the screen!
Seeing some pictures without the issue would be very reassuring.
I never noticed any screen bleeding during use, you can judge by yourself...either there is non, or it's minimal...

Since day one I never noticed this issue, and I'm quite a picky guy. Now, after seeing all the problems related to this amongst other users I cannot really be sure, maybe it's just my imagination. Since I have to try so hard and stare at the phone without any permanent conclusion I guess it's pretty satisfactory for me. I feels sorry for other users with this problem, unfortunately Xiaomi will not replace all faulty units. At least they will hopefully notice this issues for future reference. I already posted my thoughts about Poco under "overall love".....maybe you would agree with me on that one.

Question Is the pixel 6's dotted animation normal?

As the title said is this normal, I'm really not familiar with how pixel handles animation but refer to the video attached, this is also happening inside the settings when I tap something from there. Thanks! this is my 2nd Pixel Device and I don't know if it's really made like that or just an android 12 thing I just want to be sure. Thank you!

Thanks for the response that's what I thought first haha that it's a bug from A12 then a new update came it's still there my 2nd thought that it's the fault of my oled panel but knowing it's normal, I can finally find peace hahaha. Pixel devices are not really available here in my country so warranty is very limited that's why I'm really keen on finding something bad about my unit so that It can get replace quickly before the personal warranty given expires but so far my unit is flawless and the worst case I thought as a problem is this animation
You will see several other flaws with the screen but this is also normal unfortunately.. Like a rainbow effect on the white colors depending on the viewing angle, and a green tint on the grays..
This Oled panel is not that good tbh, it's better on the pro version
