I was wondering if anyone who got a Nexus One recently know if they have a LCD screen instead of the AMOLED screen. If so I was wondering if you know the following:
1) Does the LCD screen have the multitouch issue with crossing of the axis?
2) How does the LCD screen compare with the AMOLED in terms of battery life?
There is no Nexus One with LCD screens.
The HTC Incredibles were the ones where there were shortages and HTC started using LCD on them.

How do I know if my Nexus One is AMOLED vs Super LCD? YES, i know how nice AMOLED displays are, and in fact, I had a vibrant. They're gorgeous. The reason I ask is because the N1 I got, today, has a really nice screen that reminds me of the AMOLED on the vibrant, but I'm not sure if it's actually AMOLED or Super LCD since I've never seen a super LCD display, that I know of..
AMOLED screens have a "PenTile Matrix". Find a lupe or even try the water drop trick to view the screen pattern.

Boot into the bootloader. Check your MICROP version:
0b15 is AMOLED
0c15 is SLCD
Install a terminal emulator and type "dmesg", then scan the results for one of the following:
samsung_oled_panel = AMOLED
sony_tft_panel = SLCD
Got it guys, thanks!!
Hey guys! I want to know if I can replace the SAMOLED screen of my I9000 with a S-LCD screen from an I9003, I wanna know just in case something will happen with my screen in the future. If possible I would do this instantly since I'm tired of the burn-in effect from SAMOLED.
Hi everyone!
I have bought my nexus one used, and I would like to know if it has the amoled or the slcd screen.
Can someone help me?
Thank you.
Easiest way to find out? Start the phone in the dark. If you can see light where the screen is black, you have an SLCD. SLCD has a backlight that lights up the whole screen. AMOLED lights up each individual pixel, so a black is truly black and dark on an AMOLED screen.
Otherwise google will show up a lot of results on determining between an SLCD and AMOLED.
Thank you! I have the slcd..
But I still love my N1!
Supposedly, the SLCD version is a better screen and is better on battery with the more common uses. I have only had AMOLEDs, so I have never compared the two directly.
Hi everyone.
my lcd display has cracked today ( ), before i make an order of a new display i wan't to know if i can replase the lcd type (mine is samsung version) with the AMOLED display.
please help me.
Thanks.
Samsung is the one who made AMOLED. They started running low on supplies because of their Galaxy phones and so the N1 switched to the SLCD.
And one is not compatible with the other. If you cracked an SLCD screen, you need to replace it with an SLCD screen.
Google has a few ways to determine what type of screen you have if you are still unsure.
Hey everyone,
i have an interesting question about hd7 LCD: are the pixels black or white when voltage is applied? In a "normally white" LCD, the screen will be white if no voltage is applied to any of the pixels. In contrast, a "normally black" LCD will be black if no voltage is applied.
Does anyone know which mode of operation HD7 use? Is it a function of being TN+Film, P/MVA, or IPS? it would just be nice to know.

many factors . HD7 seems to use a TN + film display . Unlike the iphone 3GS which is using IPS LCD
1) battery life
in Normally "white" LCDs , no power is applied to display white, Black consumes power
in Normally "black" LCDs , no power is applied to display black, White consumes power
2) Screen protectors
I have no concrete research on this but certain screen protectors for wp7 phone may display better with white theme/ black text because screen protectors with a textured matt screen tend to blur white text. Like wise the opposite is true for screen protectors which are non anti glare
3) longevity of screen
of course when no power is applied to the screen for display of white or black , yr screen is less likely to burn out faster
I had HTC 7 Pro and now Titan. Both SLCDs, as I assume the HD7 is also. When I had the 7 Pro I looked in to this and got the impression white would be the correct answer here. I looked in to this because of the theoretical battery save. I never tested what is the real difference though.
On amoled screen the natural state would be black.

I believe TN display and SLCD is different
SLCD is more power efficient, has deeper blacks and contrast and it has a few types like IPS , ect

Yes you are correct. I was on my mobile yesterday and didnt look up what panel HD7 has, I only assumed it is the same as 7Pro and Titan, but its not.
Only the trophy and HTC titan/ titan 2 uses SLCD.
the rest use TN display + film
If i am, not wrong , though the newer upcoming Win 8 phones may use SLCD 2 or Super Amoled HD
