It is true, XPERIA TX has different screens. - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hello,
My friend and I bought 2 XPERIA TX, I noticed that his screen looks better than mine, it's very clear that his viewing angles is also better than mine.
When I looked into the software info for both phones, I found one difference.
It's the Touch Firmware Version, mine is c while his is b.
Both phones are HK version, but my phone is ZH/EN and his phone is HK/CH
This is really makes me so angry
Here are two screen shots for software info from our phones.

I don't think that alone proves it's a completely difference screen. I think the touch screen digitizer is different compared to the screen itself. How did you get to the software info screen? I want to know what my version is as well.

Press *#*#7378423#*#*
Press "Service info" then "Software info"

from what i know b is manufactured by sony and a is manufactured in china. not sure about c

Mine is version B, and I gotta say my screen looks pretty good.

What do you mean by better? Take some pictures or sth.
Tbh no phones are made perfect, so why complain? You're already better than people who has defected phones.

Better means better, specially in viewing angles, the phone with b firmware has much better viewing angles than c.
Defected phones are not my concern here, if I got a defected phone I'll go to SONY Service Center, that's easy.
BTW I'm a SONY fan, and I love my TX, it's really a great phone, and in general it 's better than One X and SGS III.
But if SONY is releasing the handset with different hardware, they should state it and discriminate between them.
The difference between touch firmware versions means that we have 2 different touch panels ( digitizers ).
I hope you got it now.

Mine is C, and overall the screen it's ok, but yes, the viewing angles are very poor.

Here are the pictures guys, they're not from the internet, they're from my phone and my friends' phone.
Both phones at 100% brightness, adept to lighting conditions disabled.
Both phones has the same SI Number, and both was made in week 41 2012
This is really annoying and frustrating,

What the hell is happening with sony????
That is unacceptable.

Does this count for T no X too?

Most likely thats froyo. Looking at the weather widget, which is the older version, contrary to the latest one present in the GB leaks.

Well, I guess in a glance the specs are kinda similar, though the sgs2 has twice the ram and internal, better front and main camera(quality, though might be software) also exynos and super amoled seems to make for much better battery life.
Anyone know why NFC is optional in SGS2? Are there two different versions?

It looks so good.
You can now get a white digitizer from ebay for 60 backs.
I bet in the next few days we will be able to get the battery cover aswell. So actually u can turn ur 2x into white for like 80 backs : )
God this trend about the color white. It's not just for phones, cars to even coffee mugs are supposedly cooler when it's clad in white color. RIM releases the black(irony) blackberries first because people(men and women) would prefer the white ones. Some people even go so far as to trade-'up' to a white one of the same model. And where I live they're good $20 more expensive too, of course you'll spend quite a bit more trading up to a new phone. But that doesn't seem to be a problem for a lot of people.
This is a trend, white is the new black, next couple years it will be the other way around.
Thats sounds awesome, this means that op2x has a bigger chance to get ICS now than before

after some browsing, or benchmark (when the phone is warming a bit)
It gets yellow tint the left side on the screen (maybe not only there, but there is the most recognisable):
I don't find this is a good product from LG.
I hope this is not usual...but personally I'm disappointed :crying:
Looks like the glue spot issues the One X had/still has...
It's to do with how the screen is glued to the LCD.
I really cba going through issues similar to the One X's launch again, that device had a horrendous hardware launch.
Are you in Europe and did you buy this from an EU carrier? If so, it would seem that LG diverted units from Google to go to other vendors. Google actually had to cancel announced plans to sell the Nexus 4 via Playstore in the Netherlands and Belgium at the very last minute because LG couldn't deliver units. I suspect LG's reputation isn't going to be helped by the disastrous launch of this phone. Google deserves to share the criticism too. (There's a rumor that LG delivered only 5,000 units to Google, but then rumors aren't substantiated and it may well be false. However, the UK Playstore sold out in under an hour and the US Playstore was sold out in under a half and hour so it sounds like there weren't a lot of phones available.)
Yeah this definitely looks like the issue that one x had with their launch. Not good!
Christ almighty, this phone is Frankenstein resurrected. How many things went wrong/are wrong again!? I can't keep track anymore. Worst f-cking phone EVER. Sucks it looks so good though.
didn't the iphone 5 have the same issue and stated for users to wait untill the glue cures completely and the yellow tint should go ?

If you press down on the screen (on the yellow patch as if reviving a dead pixel), does the yellow patch disfigure? Could be some glue that hasn't set in properly yet...leave it overnight and see if it disappears
Well, if it's after the benchmarks, it means it either got so hot that physically damaged lcd, or just helped glue to evaporate faster than it should. I suggest not pushing it for the first few days cpu wise, let everything dry out as much as possible naturally.

indeed, I wonder if the networks (O2..etc got a bad batch of phones...). I bought mine from Google Play earlier today and now I'm scared for my life and hoping that LG didn't screw mass production of this amazing phone up...
On the section 3.5 of Screen section of the French review from frandroid.com here :
http://www.frandroid.com/test/116648_test-du-nexus-4/2/#3
You can see photos of the yellow tint. The text translated from French :
"After some testing, we noticed a weird behavior of the screen on a white background. A blue light escapes from the top of the screen. Moreover, a yellow spot appears. It's sometimes difficult to notice at first sight. Knowing the hardware we have is final, this is very worrisome."
I think it's the same like sony xperia-s screen.

Don't worry flash back stock Rom and stock kernel and you can get it fixed in warranty after flashing stock kernel the Red thingy on Htc splash screen gets vanished ...Cause after Rooting warranty voids
from what i've heard mechanical damage isn't covered by the warranty as it is your fault.
i could be wrong so you should try it.
or you can go to a service to install a new screen. a new screen+digitizer costs about 19 euros (in my country) dont know how much the replacement itself costs

i don't need a brand new LCD because it is still fine i took my old desire c apart once and the LCD and digitizer weren't together! (it does suck i didn't keep that one :\)
I checked amazon, parts4cheap and other services they all sell if for a price of 12.49$ i didn't know the touch screen was this cheap!

Yeah it was a z1 pic originally I photoshopped it myself. Just wanted to see what it would look like. I could have said it was a legit pic but didnt want to get people hopes up for no reason.
Seriously speaking though... With this much component.
I won't expect a mini version of Z1 with the same specs.... Z1 alone seems a little crowded already in the inside. I can't imagine how would they cram all these internals in a 4.3inch phone.
Although it might be possible if they put 2 PCB boards inside the phone but it would make it thicker by probably 2x. Never seen a dual layered PCB phone yet...

If it comes with the same camera and same processor, I'm def getting it.
But from the picture it looks like it may not have the same camera (the lens looks slightly smaller...?)
Personally I wouldn't place too much stock in what looks like a photoshopped regular Z1 shrunk down a bit, I'd hold off for some official SONY information before deciding, that way it's based on facts rather than speculation.
You'll also need to apply a bit of common sense. I.E. to fit a body that holds a 4.3 inch screen or thereabouts, logically something will have to give.
Certainly battery capacity for sure, probably the camera module for a lesser one, then there's chipsets & RAM sizes etc too. (You didn't really think SONY will make the mini the same spec as their flagship model did you?)
For me, I'd be happy as long as it's pocketable with a 720p screen
lesser camera module (if I want to take GOOD pics I'll use a proper camera thank you) or the QX10 add - on
2Gigs RAM
I'd go with a snapdragon 600 if necessary
Lesser battery isn't a huge issue, as the screen isn't a 5 inch full HD power sucker, you may find the battery longevity to be similar despite a smaller capacity.
Looks like it comes with exact same processor, ram, camera and the dust/water proof.
http://www.thenewstribe.com/2013/10...-quad-core-qualcomm-snapdragon-800-processor/
It's out for China and Japan and it's Z1f but I heard that we'll get another one Z1s (if I can remember well) and it'll be available in the rest of the world in the December...
Same specif. as Z1 but 4.3 screen and a bit "smaller" battery...

[Q] Fake HTC One?

Hello, a friend of mine has bought me an apparently real HTC One from russia. As he said, it was about 100€ cheaper because of taxes and stuff like that.
When I got that device, it was all okay. It looked very legit, until I have played some games without and tried out some benchmarks.
The phone I had before was HTC One S, which seemed much faster to me. I have ran some benchmarks and noticed it is getting much less scores than a HTC One is supposed to be.
Here you can see the result of Antutu Benchmark on the device:

Also, take a look at this weird "Brand: htc_hk_asia". It doesn't look very legit:

I appreciate any help, thank you in advance.
It does look very strange. Here is a screenshot of mine. You don't seem to have much internal storage!
If you phone was new and stock you should not have root access (I rooted mine on day 1 ). Also I'm pretty sure "alps" did not build the official HTC One. Then the board, hardware and display models aren't even similar.
I would definitely call this a fake, even the status bar at the top looks different. Do you know what ROM this phone is using? This might be stated in Settings>About>Software information.
According to the AnTuTu Device Info, the rear camera is 13MP. The real phone has a 4 Ultrapixel camera. I'm pretty sure that isn't a software problem!
I'm not sure what you could do, apart from take it back to your friend.

It was new and completely unopened... well, at least it looked like that. The first weird thing I noticed, was that the battery was charged to something like 57%. I am not sure if this is normal or not.
Here is a screenshot of my "About" menu. Sorry for the text being in german, I hope it is still recognizable.
Also, I have compared my phone with pictures of a real HTC One - it seems very legit... is it possible that someone just exchanged parts of the hardware?

Difficult to tell from that screenshot, but the battery when new is normal. Mine was charged at about 45% when new. Does the phone feel of high quality? It should be nicely built with an aluminium body, with the 2 front boom sound speakers sounding nice and clear.

That is a worrying good copy! It says the fake has a 720p screen but the screenshots show 1080p. Still, that seems to be the only similarity to the real HTC

Difficult to tell from that screenshot, but the battery when new is normal. Mine was charged at about 45% when new. Does the phone feel of high quality? It should be nicely built with an aluminium body, with the 2 front boom sound speakers sounding nice and clear.

Lol at his picture....
He has 1gb internal storage.
It is a fake for sure. Plus hardware is the same as the link I posted, ir isn't using a Qualcomm chip
The screenshot thing could be wrong, it doesn't test the screen res but looks at the hardware info which would be easily to fake
Hmm, okay. Seems like it really is a fake, unfortunately.
I can't really tell if it feels high quality, it is not really heavy and not too light..
Thank you everyone for your help!

Hopefully you can get the phone sent back. It's a shame to see such a beautiful phone copied from a cheaper supplier.
