has anyone been able to find a full privacy screen for the hero?
when i say full i mean the entire screen ( logos and all ) and not just the active screen..
I found this one but they dont say it is the full screen

Judging from the looks of the graphic on that one...which doesn't mean much of anything... It looks like that would cover the whole screen, or at least it looks like the top has been cut to the contour of our screen...
Just wanted to post a follow up on this ..i order 3 of these screens and they are infact great quality private screens CUT TO THE CDMA HERO...so they are a pefect fit to the entire screen of the hero ( even the logos are covered )
How good is the privacy effect. also how was shipping

Just an update on this..
Shipping took abotu 8 days ..
It fist the screen perfectly and the privacy is nice ..
HOWEVER....
It seems that they are to thick? the entire right side of the screen lost touch function ...TOTALY.....
i boguht 3 of them so i took one off ( just to check to see maybe i put it on wrong ) but the second one did the same thing ....
DONT WASTE your MONEY on these ...it's great that they are cut to fit the screen but they dont work ...pffft!
If you want a true privacy filter for your hero, heres what you do....take it out in the sunlight and no one will be able to see the screen, not even you!

I had one (i am going to replace it today actually )
I thought it was cool but it wasn't very useful. IDK if its because I got a cheap one or because they are all like that, but the quality of the thing sucks. The anti-scratch coating got scratched off (idk how because I leave it in my pouch) and it looks very ugly (and scratched) It also kills the brightness a little bit (buts its not too bad) and gives a rainbow like effect when you look through it (you will get used to it)
it is removable (its just basically a regular screen protector with a special coating/process)
All in all, I liked it, but I prefer the clarity and scratchproof-ness ( ) of a clear one
today i have noticed that there is a very small black dot on lcd, but i dont think its a dead pixel, because its visible when the screen is off, like a little dust under screen !
is it possible that dust goes under hd7 screen ?
how can i fix that ?
I have the same issue. But I leave it as it is ´cause I don´t want to make it worse and in normal operating it doesn´t bug me so much.
what is it ? is it dust or dead pixel do you think ?
but its annoying in white background
Well indeed I think it is a dead black pixel since it doesn't move like dust.
It doesn't disturb since the display never is fully cleaned :-]
My first HD7 had dust under the screen straight out the box, 2 specks by the arrow up the top right, I exchanged it as it also had a gap on the battery cover so I could see the SIM card.
replacement was perfect, so a bit of dodgy quality control at HTC by the looks of it..

hi John.
I have HD7 and the battery cover has a gap- as you described...
where did you send your hd7 in order to be replaced?
Did you send it dirtectly in HTC's?
or did you address to the shop you bought it?
how many days did they spend to replace your mobile?
Thanks for your help
the small dots under the screen is not dust specs.
its actually the insulators builted in the screen..
if u place the screen under then sun with a black screen (lcd off) u can see there is actually quite a number of them.
they are visible if u tilt it to a certain angle..
i place a matte type screen protector and its not visible anymore.
anyway i still hate the tarnished camera button.
nevertheless, my kick stand starts to paint-pill even though i have not even use them. =(
but i still love wp7.

I know what are you saying, but this dot is different from them, its not on that grid, its only one and when the background is white its visible as dark color
but i dont think its a dead pixel too, it is a little far from lcd and seems to be under the front glass !
I couldnt do anything with it
When i bought this phone i after 1 day i noticed this dark spot on the top left of my screen you can't see it clearly when its bright white or black (obviously) but i noticed that you can see it clearly if the screen color was gray.
I really don't know what is this or what exactly caused it cuz i'm not sure if its dead pixels or whatever... cuz its a little bigger. i removed the protection that came with it so i can replace it with a screen protector all i remember was that the guy who put the protector on it was cleaning the screen with a soft cloth but idk if it was him who pushed hard on the screen or if found it like this. i couldn't notice at first because of the statusbar is black.
All i can tell you is that when i received the phone i haven't had any accidents i didn't even use it for long i kept it in the box.
Sorry for the low quality photos.

Help me I have A Black Spots in My Camera Give me a Solution
Its a pressure spot,similar to a desktop monitor being pressed
Verstuurd vanaf mijn C6603 met Tapatalk
Is there a solution to this pressure spot :s i didn't notice it back then if i did i would have taught that bastard a lesson..
And for example if i had to change something do i have to change just the screen ? or the whole touch thing because after i checked the phone recognizes my interaction with it in that spot (means tactile is working on the black spot).

To me it looks like the screen is broken..... Is there still a screen protector on it? It might also just be dust...

You'd better go to sony center for changing a new phone.
It is a inferior screen.
The thing is i lost my warranty papers :s and idk if there is a sony center in my city :/ also can you tell me more about this "inferior screen" ?
Like how is it broken i mean everything is working and it seems fine nothing happens when i touch it or anything but there is only that little black spot that disturbs me a little bit cuz its a new phone :/
And no its probably not dust cuz i removed the screen protector to see if it was dust but i can still see it :s
Thanks everyone i appreciate it
I forgot...
I forgot btw that i didn't remove the integrated anti shatter proof film..? can it maybe have dust beneath it or something but i doubt ? cuz i have never took it off what i took off was just a normal film i think lol..
Tell me guys what you think ! thanks again

there's some new software out, called Google Search; you should become familiar with it..
https://www.google.com/search?q=lg+...la:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=sb
Maybe he will was looking for some input and referral to one someone was already using?
Mirrored screens tens to reduce the light transmission quite a bit. I've been searching for just regular screen protectors and haven't found one. I sure wish EXiM made an SPUC for this bad boy. This is such an amazing phone. I understand the cost is higher, but I just don't know why this phone isn't more popular. I'll have a very hard time going back to a standard screen phone.
Bodyguardz makes an anti reflective SP that makes it harder to see from a an angle, check that out or Amazon for ratings on true mirrored ones, but be prepared to turn your brightness way up at the loss of battery life.

I put my phone to charge before sleeping yesterday, when i woke up, i unlocked the screen and phone was charged fully,
Suddenly after 3 or 4 seconds my screen went black! but i still can hear touch sounds, my computer recognizes the phone storage and i can feel the vibration when i turn it on or off.
I've also tried wiping and flashing a stock ftf through flashtool, nothing.
So my guess is the screen is completely dead and i will be replacing it shortly but before
is there any way to make sure that the problem is with the touch panel only? so it's not related to the motherboard or any other component?
To make sure that screen is dead use hammer or other heavy and hard object.
You need to place it on the screen with good amount of speed to get give this object more power.
I would recommend dropping it in the middle of the screen so you could be sure that screen is dead.
Im not recommending using car or dropping it from high, because there is a chance that you would kill not only screen but also other components of the phone.

That's not funny at all.
Well... when I saw this title I could not resist...
But to be on topic. If fresh flash dont help, there is no "software" way to check if screen is dead for sure.
XZ construction is tight as hell, and only way to fix screen is replace it in service center OR make it by yourself.
On aliexpress you can buy XZ screen for less than 25 euro

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Blac...Z-L36h-L36i-C6606-C6603-C6602/1901021035.html
Its not much, and if you played a bit with phones before its gonna take you less than 30min.
I ordered screens from ali few times, for my old Xperia Arc S and Neo V. no problem still work like new.
But because you need to remove back panel, I would recommend buying it too, its less than 7 euro for panel with NFC antena
You get all tools with it, and only what you need it hair dryer or wet towel that you put in microwave. Its necessary to unglue back panel.
PS. I know that it sound weird, but one time when I have Galaxy S and screen was dead... I throw it ""by accident"" on the ground... and its start working xD Im not saying that you should throw it... but you know... ""shake that baby""

I was already considering the "shake that baby method", it might be just a problem with some inner connection or cable or something.
That's why i was asking if there's is a method to make sure that the screen is completely dead, so i might not need to replace the whole panel.
And about the replacements, i read some reviews on similar products on amazon, most are complaining that they started to see blurry text, lower brightness, microphone not working and alot of other problems, you seem exprerienced with the procedure of repairing so what do you think?
Well, in terms of changing screens I bought screens only for Xperia Arc S and Neo V If we talk about smartphones :]
I speed almost whole day looking for it on eBay and Aliexpress. Of course before that I checked professional shops and local services, but its F hilarious that they want even 150% of phone price JUST FOR SCREEN....
I always sort list by number of orders, so I have chance to read more comments, and most of this time I spend reading them. If I found even single comment that say that quality is bad... I checked next one. And after few hours I had 2-3 screens to choose.
And in terms of quality... its hard to tell, most of problems are made by person who put that screen in phone, not screen it self. And because as I said build quality of new phones are tight as hell, 0.5mm difference and something is not working.
But overall quality of those screens that I had where good. I didnt had problem with brightness, ghosting(in moving object) or blurry text. I only had problem with less saturated colors. Difference is not huge, but if you spend with phone some time you see that its about 10-15% less saturated.
To be honest with buying something online that is more complex than brick and it contain electronic components its always hit and miss...
I could had luck with screen, someone could not have... Normally I trust online shops, but its better to spend whole day in front of PC than buying first product from the list...
In terms of actual replacement, instead of inventing wheel again, just check YT videos, watch few of them, and if they have link in description for screen, check them, sometimes they give link to screen that doesnt cost fortune and you know that you can get good quality product.
here are few of them:

Just remember to prepare everything, flat place for work, all tools, and few cups or bowls for parts... flat table or not, Its better to keep all screws in bowl :]

Thank you for your help
last thing
what do you think of this http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Blac...ame-Assembly-Replacement-Part/1449119790.html
This look a bit average looking at comments, most of problems are with dead pixels.
Weird that for XZ screens there are less offers that I would though :/
I found this one that look promising:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/For-...6601-LCD-display-touch-screen/1902384532.html
and if you want whole front panel
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/For-...e-Assembly-Black-Replacement/32279043240.html
But as I said its hard to tell if you get screen without problems... I would say to check eBay or Amazon, but to be honest its all from the same place so what the difference?
