HTC Desire :: Desire Screen / Plastic Or Glass?
Apr 15, 2010
I'm sure I read a review somewhere where they said the Desire's screen was plastic right/wrong?I'm thinking of replacing my Hero which has a nice hard glass screen but don't fancy a plastic screen.Someone tell me it ain't so please?

Anybody know for sure whether the Moment's screen is glass or plastic?I've looked around for the answer, but there seems to be conflicting reports.So far I'm amazed at how scratch resistant the screen is.Still pristine after heavy usage, so I'm assuming it's a glass screen.But I haven't been able to find any definitive source.

I sent HTC an email to see if I really need a screen protector, they gave me this in return... lol no idea what to get from this: I understand how important it is for you to receive as much information about your device as possible. Unfortunately, the information you are requesting is proprietary in nature and we are not at liberty to divulge this information. I do apologize for any inconvenience and frustration this has caused you. Whether the screen is made out of Gorilla Glass or not it is always a good idea to protect your device. You can find screen protectors online at places like eBay, Amazon, or even on your carriers website. The screen protectors are generally not very expensive and are quite useful.

I've been adding, and uninstalling, I've been noticing some installed apps that I don't seem to be able to add to my screens, or use.
I was wondering what these were.
They are: -
Rosie Utility
Teeter
and
Street View (Okay I KNOW what this one is, but how do I add it to Google Earth/Maps)
Also I've noticed that on the pattern lock screen. There is a message that says, "This phone belongs to". How do I personalise this with my name?

So if the Desire Hd has the same screen resolution as the desire then the screen on the Desire Hd will look worse? And then would be a downgrade?

Just watched this video about the screen responsiveness on the Desire vs the Samsung Galaxy S. These are the two phones I'm considering, so I just wanted people's opinions on it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVlsRCMltDg&feature=player_embedded

Is the bezel around the screen metal or plastic? Will help me decide on if I put it in a case or not...

After the screen goes off after 1min (or whatever you have it configured to) is the only way to get it back on to press the power button at the top of the phone? I find it a little awkward - can't I just press the button on the bottom front of the phone?

Is this plastic really necessary? My brother says it helps protect the back of the screen from the slide out mechanism.I'm asking because some of it is starting to come off through regular use and I'm wondring if it's gonna be a problem if it is necessary and it all comes off.

I purchased my Incredible only a few weeks after it was first released.Love it haven't had problems like a lot of the other people here when they first bought it.Anyways I love my phone.What I don't love however, is the freaking case I purchased when I first got the phone. Was a verizon snap on hard cover broke recently.Being the clutz that I am, I left the phone on my lap while in the car, and when I stepped out I forgot it was there and BOOM, clanked on the concrete.Have some abrasions on the shiny black plastic around the screen.I was wondering, is there anyway to fix this, or have it repaired? anything?

How do I find out if my Desire screen is AMOLED or SLCD, as this seems to be important for rooting?There is nothing that makes sense on the box sticker, but then it IS an Orange phone.If I power up so I can see the HBoot info, it also says "Touch Panel Synt 0101". Does this mean anything?It's HBoot 0.83, and dated June 10 2010.

Yesterday I updated my HTC Desire to 1.21 ....And today I noticed that when i have the screen with more white than any other color (like the notification screen for example) the screen flickers, and it does this with little horizontal lines...
I also realized 2 things:
1. it flickers when the automatic brightness is on and I am inside (so the brightness was set to under 25%)
2. It flickers with battery fully charged once the voltage got under 4.08v, it stopped..
Has anyone seen this on the desire after the update or before? Is this normal? Is my phone faulty?

Well having just got a X10. It has a pre-installed screen protector. Somehow I managed to scratch the screen protector and now I want to remove it however I'm having much difficulty removing it. Now I'm thinking if I should get a replacement screen protector as the Rogers version doesn't come with a spare one or just go without it. Anyone without the screen protector wanna add input about the durability of the mineral glass screen? I know that the screen on the iPod Touch 2G is very durable since I own one without having a protector on but I want to know if the X10s screen is just as durable.

I was reading about the scratch test (keys, screws, razor, etc.) and how they didn't scratch the screen, but how sand might. I am curious, is it sand specifically, or anything like it, such as dust or lint? Could things like that scratch glass? In other words, can the screen be scratched by slipping the phone into an otherwise empty, clean pants pocket?

I got my HTC incredible on launch day and just noticed a line going down the left side of me glass screen that at first looks like a scratch. You mainly can only see it in direct light and when I try to look at the screen from the side, you can not see the line(unlike a scratch u would you could see it at all angles). I'm not too OCD about it, I just want to know if anyone else is having these random lines as well.

I just wanted to offer a little information for those who may have cracked screens.I left my EVO on my bumper a few weeks ago. I realized about an hour later I didn't have it. Someone picked it up off of the busy highway and dropped if off at my shop. It had been rolled over numerous times and the screen was completetly shattered. With the help of this site, I found instructions on changing the LCD/Glass and ebay links on where to get it. I got a great deal on ebay, $79 for the lcd/glass complete. Was brand new in the packing. Bought the tools (listed in the instructions found on this site) at the local hardware store, put the lcd/glass on, and the phone works PERFECT! I am very glad. First off I didn't have insurance, and second, this has been the first phone in a while that I have had zero issues with and really like everything about it (coming from numerous blackberries).So basically, thanks for the help, and now we know the phone can take a few cars running over it and the board, battery, back, etc. held up great.It had a best buy case (appears same as seidio innocase) and Zagg screen protector on it.I have my original phone back, no scratches, spent $79 (less than the deductible even if I had insurance), and its a done deal.

Is there any way to disable the screen that shows all the 7 screens after tapping the home screen? If not disable get rid of it all together.
Or maybe an app to do so?

Ii haven't made any big changes to my Desire and all was working well. suddenly a couple of days ago i noticed that things slowed down significantly.
exmples: when drawing the unlock screen, there is a big lag till the home screen comes up huge lag in opening programmes or menus
so, the only app i recently installed was the BA (british airways) android app. could this have affected the whole phone?
what steps can i take to check what might be wrong?looking at the SPARE PARTS app, i can see that CPU usage shows a huge bar for "init".i don't know if this is a normal process? anyone got info on this? might have nothing to do with my phone lagging of course.

I ROM'd my Droid with Broken Glass (I'm pretty sure it's 4.5). You have 5 screens...from left to right, lets just number them 1 thru 5. One would think the default home screen would be screen #3...but it isn't...it's screen #2. I like being able to just hit the "Home" button at the bottom to scroll directly to the home screen. Anyone know why the home screen is screen #2 and if I can change it to screen #3?
Side note...how can I tell what version of Smoked Glass (or any other ROM for that matter) I'm running?

Anyone know of a widget to simply lock the screen or put into sleep mode by pressing something on the screen rather than pressing the power button on the top of the phone. Tried looking around and unless I'm missing something (I am particularly good at missing the obvious!) there doesn't seem to be anything that does just that. Anyone know/come across anything that will do this? Does anyone know if this might be included in 2.2?
