Root Pixelated Screen Issue (and say hello :) )

[MizzouBrent]

Unbelievable that this forum is still so active. Browsing through here because my OG has a screen issue...like a circle of dead pixels or something in a circular type pattern in the middle of the screen. Probably some kind of problem with the internals right?

Wiped everything, re-partitioned the sd card even, wipe, wipe, wipe and nothing. Oh well. My son has been using it as a game device after he dropped our Kindle Fire, which is not a ~7 inch paperweight. Good times.

Hey Mizzou!!
Long time no see!!
How old is your Evo? Gotta be going on, perhaps 3? years?
I still have mine too!! I use it for the TorqueApp in my car

 

[MizzouBrent]

It's about three years I guess. But less than that actually because my first one ended up getting replaced. Sorry for the poor quality picture. Hate the camera on this piece of crap. Ugh!

Great seeing some familiar faces! I mean names! Pardon the manly wallpaper there. Just flashed classic

 

[Mikestony]

Give me a minute to move our posts to your own thread (don't want to get off topic from the op ) Stand by Mizzou...I want to ask a few more questions of you.


Edit: ok...there we are...moved.

Deal

I won't judge your choice of wallpaper

Spoiler

:rofl:

Anyways, I surmise your screen is seeing its last days considering what you have done already to try and troubleshoot it.

 

[MizzouBrent]

Yeah that's what I figured. Might have been dropped at some point. I have no idea since I'm not the one using it. Oh well.

 

[Mikestony]

What device are you using nowadays? The Galaxy Nexus? Or something different?

 

[MizzouBrent]

Yeah the gnex. It's a decent enough phone but the battery life is atrocious. If I was getting something right now I'd get the HTC one or possibly the moto x. Probably just hold out for the next big thing. Not upgrade eligible until April anyway u think. What are you on at the moment?
