verizon replacement for pink/purple hue - Verizon HTC One (M7)

i will check to see what kind of replacement they send me.
my current version has hboot that is still not unlocked and pink and purple hue. i might as well take the risk.
i am hoping for the lower hboot and no camera issue, wish me luck.
this post is just to show you guys what happens from using verizon.

Good luck! Last Blue one I got from VZW still had 4.2.2 and exploitable bootloader. But a nice dead pixel on the screen and jagged edges and huge ass gaps.

How in the world did you manage to get a blue one from verizon? And what do you mean by jagged edges? You mean on the body?
Huge gaps from where?

I have the blue BB version so they have replacements for them as well. The lower right hand corner has a big ass gap and you can feel the jagged edge when you run your finger along it. Also the screen and bottom grill has a big ass gap you can stand a playing card up in it trololol.

Wow thanks for sharing that. Thank goodness I didn't get he blue. Did you notice if it had the stock microphone arrangements. I know HTC was getting sued by Nokia about that

The build date for the device was back in sep 13. I don't remember when the lawsuit went through for the infringement.

All the best :good:

Use this http://219.80.249.25/IMEIQuery/IMEIQuery.aspx?ct=zh-CN and you can see your build date. The Blue HTC One's I got from Verizon were built on 9/25/13. Month later than the one I got from Best Buy. Seems the blue ones are phones set aside by the manufacturer for warranty exchanges I think.
Left one is from Verizon right is Best Buy. Bit yellowish on the screen from Verizon but people are saying that will go away as it can be attributed to the adhesive. There seems to be no difference in games and videos for coloration.

Looks like I was right, it's not just massively more thicker but also looks different :] Going to enjoy my HSPA+ Nexus more this Saturday
massively? I'm guessing you didn't read the bottom part.
This device is thinner than the Droid Bionic, Droid Charge, and HTC Thunderbolt.
You're smoking penis, but give you props for taking the plunge and getting your unlocked Nexus. Congrats

Check the article again. Looks like they made a little uh-oh: the LTE Nexus on the left isn't properly rotated to the side orientation. If you look carefully, you can see that some of the thickness is entirely due to the perspective - you are look at part of its back. They have updated it with the correct view:
I think that someone has doctored that image put up here. If you see the image on the indicated droid-life website, then the LTE version does not look massively thicker.
See attached
and original
something that needs to be mentioned - the colour of the phone is pertinent with regard to perceived thickness
the LTE version seems to be all black, whereas the GSM version has lighter tapering with a darker middle-section.
this does make a difference to perceived thickness
All of these things aside...I'm still scared that Verizon hasn't announced a release date. Supposedly they were going to announce *today* when the phone would be released...and we've seen nothing. Google now even has a picture of the LTE version on their site, which *should* coincide with a release notification of some kind (almost always does, in the phone world)...and yet Verizon is staying silent.
When Verizon doesn't speak...it always scares me.

IDK, those pics look not right, even the redone one. The color on the LTE version looks darker and more plain. It's not a deal-breaker but, I hope it's not like that.

Time to Swap Again?

Dead pixel? Stuck pixel? Something else? Time to return? *sadface* The other stuff are bubbles from my crappy screen protector. Also it doesn't stick one color. Can't see it on black, but on green it's greenish, blue it's bluish red etc.

Did they replace that part or the entire phone? The digitizer has no light producing parts. I think that was a hot spot in your back light to be honest.

Brand new phone at the store. I thought it was a hot spot/pixel but screen was fully black when off. Usually hot pixel still shows. Either way not sure what happened to it exactly.

Hmm guess that article was wrong hah. I've delt with dead/stuck pixels before guess that's the first hot spot. Either way I only had the device for 3-4 days before it happened.

So far I have had them on blackberries and two dell laptops. It would have likely gotten much worse too over time.

And here is a repair guide for those of you who are brave enough!
And a https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/OnePlus+One+Teardown/26484 for those who wish to repair the phone themselves.
@zephiK thanks ill add to op
In the ifixit teardown I noticed that the battery is not TOO difficult to remove. Does anyone know if replacement batteries are available for this device.
It is using a 3.8v 3100mah LiPo battery.
OnePlus probably woudn't sell the batteries on their own. I also read on another forum somewhere (can't remember which one now) somebody was thinking of creating a way that the battery connector could be extended and fit into the battery compartment. This way you wouldn't have to unscrew the plate just to take out the battery.
Even if this is not feasible it would still be reassuring to know where to purchase replacement batteries from. If anybody knows anything on this, please let us know, thanks.
Thanks for the link. Where is the repair guide? I see a Teardown link.

When installed does this have little dots on the top of the screen. A friend just recently had a new 3rd party screen/digitizer installed on her G2 and you can see like small dots spaced perfectly across the phone. I am wondering if she just got a low quality replacement.
I've tried many times to repair my phones myself, every single time there was something gone wrong :laugh: Anyway glad to hear this :victory:

I'we seen 6 OPO's (with different dates of production) and all of them have yellow band at the bottom of the screen, so I can assumed that the most of OPO's have yellow band. My three friends says, tahey have no yellow band, but it is defenitely there (maybe they don't want to see it).
Go search for "Yellow" in OPO pages and you will see that so much people talk about it.
Even OPO admitted, that every 1+ have slightly yellow band on bottom of their phones.

Funny mine doesn't. So ha to you.
I hope you are not colour blind …
Mine doesn't have the yellow band either. I thought it was a bold statement.
I received 2 and neither had the yellow band. I am certain that I have at least average color differentiation.
Can confirm no yellow banding on mine

Is my screen messed up or maybe dead pixels or something?

I just got my Pixel 2 XL and on the top right corner there is a little circle and only in the top right corner. It does not show in any screen shots i take and there is no way to make it go away, i cannot click on or drag it out its just a tiny half circle in the corner of the top right of the screen.
Anyone else have this?

I have the exact same thing on my screen. When the background is white that little notch is blue, less aparent on darker backgrounds. Going to RMA.

Yea, i returned mine and now its much better. Not sure how good the quality control is on these phones but maybe we just got unlucky with this issue.
I came to post something similar but I'm not sure if it's an actual issue it app specific honestly. I'll try to get a shot of it but it's Garrett noticable. Over in the top left there's sometimes a slightly discolored line. Very faint. But it's only there when using certain apps. Some apps it doesn't show at all. It's really noticable with Twitter. Another strange thing about this line is it doesn't matter the background color. It's shows up with dark apps and light apps. But not all apps these colors. It's very bizarre... It's where the glass starts to curve I'm my opinion.

Who else has backlight bleed?

There have been a few reports on Reddit of backlight bleed in demo units. Personally, one of my Raspberry Rose units has the backlight bleed (between the home and app switcher buttons, aka circle and square) and the other does not. I created a form to get an idea if this issue is widespread (like the G2x) or if maybe it's just an early batch problem or it's really not a problem and just a few flawed units. Please contribute to the form either way, the more data the better.
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1...FaGANnb1DlA_gATnM9EYXKxg/viewform?usp=sf_link
For reference, this is a bad case of the backlight bleed:

Sorry! It's not noticeable on certain screens, seems like solid white/light gray is most prone to showing it. My G2x didn't have much bleed, but that had a whole class action lawsuit against it.

Light bleed is a complaint on a lot of devices even tv's.
I as well have the light bleed in that same exact spot. Yours looks a lot worse than mine though. To be honest, I think it's mainly an LG thing to have something slightly wrong with their displays. I've had their v10 and every flagship after that besides the v30 and they always had that slight light bleed issue

Yeah, but at least the V10/20 had a secondary backlight with a weird screen design to blame it on. I'd actually understand it more if the bleed on this one was around the notch, the bottom doesn't make much sense.

I think it does since the bottom is where all the ports are.
There's a tiny amount of backlight bleed on mine. Right at the bottom of the screen, just like in your picture. Just not nearly as bad. In fact, I didn't notice it until I went looking for it. Picked up a gray one from T-Mobile yesterday.
Just exchanged mine at TMobile. Exact location of bleed

Did it fix it?
I had a small mark at the exact same spot as the OP so I will be exchanging mine at Tmobile when they open in 2 hours.
In my experience, bleeding does spread over time. I am on Jump on Demand and will probably only keep this for less than 6 months but still, now that I have noticed the spot, it will drive me nuts.
Yep, new one is flawless
why is that more with the gray one ?
Well, thanks for that. Just realized I have one in the exact same spot, too. I don't think it will drive me nuts, but now I know it's there.
im on HK/SG set. my screen is perfect.. no such issue
I have the light bleed as well, I bought mine off craigslist and now I can't even walk into a store to exchange. So looks like I'm screwed and can't even exchange. And I don't know if LG will do anything if I contact them. They rejected my LG promise registration for 2nd year warranty since I didn't buy directly from an authorized retailer.

you should still have manufacturer warranty. you'll have to sent it into LG, but they'll have to fix it.
