Does your Optimus 2x have a slight yellow hue?

Hi all, does you guys experience any slight yellow hues at the edge/corner of the phone screen?
Whenever i view a white background, i will notice yellow hues at the bottom left and right corner of the phone screen. Is it even normal?
Sorry to say I think you need to send your O2X to have it repaired... Mine's fine!

Me too! Aww man, I feel bad for you...
Edit: By the way, in the Netherlands you can get free VIP service with your O2X. Do they have that in Poland? In that case they'll replace it within 24 hours.

I did check properly. In fact i check 2 different o2x before getting my current one.
Just that i didn't check for yellow hues... i was looking for dead pixels....
I got it at Lot 1, CCK

I think your best chance is to get it fixed from a Sony service center.

How much will it cost? I would rather buy a new phone if it costs too much

It shouldn't cost that much, I believe. You could *try* giving it under warranty (if it is still valid), because a friend of mine dropped his phone and got the screen fixed since it was under warranty. His was a Moto G2 though.

All we can tell you is to wipe everything and re-flash stock ROM for your Droid Turbo XT1254.
If it's a hardware problem, we can't help.
If it's software, wiping everything and re-flashing stock ROM will be the fix.
I had a similar issue with my son's phone after he dropped it. I removed the back cover and the main board. Then disconnected and reconnected the display, being sure to seat the ribbon cable firmly. That solved things.

Perhaps you have a bad display or a broken ribbon cable. For me, simply reseating the ribbon cable fixed things.

As I already said, for me the solution was to firmly reseat the cable connecting the display. I've already told you everything of value I can.

not a solution, as I did it already twice, after a week or two you need to do the same. Probably the only option is to change the motherboard.

Hello i had same problem with phone. Totally dead, then i read on forum that it is probably pmi8994 chip on motherboard that was defected. I order that chip from aliexpress( must know what version is chip on your phone). Mine was pmi8994 002. I paid 8$ on aliexpress for two of them(you need only one) and 35$ for replacement. After replacement it come alive and working fine more than half year. I hope this will help.

It was suddenly power off and didn't want to turn on. I put it on charger (before failure battery was around 70%), but it didn't power on and notification light for charging was very dim and blinking. Then i check my domestic forum and got solution from one user who had same problem.

How did you change the chip? I saw a video on Youtube that describes the procedure of changing a chip, and looks like it is definitely nothing for laymen.

Broke my Xperia 1 ii Screen and Suggestions for Repair?

So I dropped my Xperia 1 ii yesterday at work and the screen cracked. Ironically my tempered glass I ordered came in today from Amazon. Is there anywhere I can go to repair my screen or buy a screen replacement?
Also has anyone else new their screen on their Xperia 1 ii? If so, where and how did you replace it? Does Sony repair these phones if I send it to them? Any idea on pricing etc? I really don't wanna have wasted $1,200. Someone please help me!
Hi there, I dropped mine too few days ago. Did you have yours fix? If so, can you point me the way? I'm in US, btw. thanks

Yeah definitely in the US and they charged me $280 to fix it because I had no insurance on the phone.

I believe so, I did a request online and they gave me a number
I did see anywhere that I can request online. Did you chat with an agent?
I meant "didn't see"
I will try to call them tomorrow. Thanks for your help.
did you guys get yours fixed? if yes can you help me get mine fixed too.
I bought it from amazon and used it for a week and then I used another brand charger I had to charge it and it was fine until it ran out of charge and turned off now it's stuck on the sony logo screen when I try to turn it on. I tried the 812-920-4185 and it keeps going to voice mail so left a voice mail and emailed them too but I still haven't gotten a reply. the phone was used for only a week or two.

do you still have original charger ?
what happens when charge it while off
fully charge it and hold the power button and volume up (or down) same time then release when logo appears, it should open the recovery menu, clear cache x2 and reboot
if still not booting then connect to PC and do a reset repair using companion
using a 3rd party charger should make no difference unless it is faulty
if all else fails return it under warranty
there are plenty of forums that will help you resolve this problem including Sony support forum
