Okay..the absolute simplest way to tell is to watch the screen behavior when it reduces its backlight when left idle. If it snaps to a dimmer level, you have an epson screen. If it gradually dims to the new level, you have the novatec.

There's talk that the Nova screens have a slightly pinkish hue to them, though I've not noticed any pink whatsoever on my Nova... That aside, I'm not sure what else is different.

hey bro. if you download Android Terminal Emulator From The Market and type in "dmesg" it will show you on your phone. just look for the <7> and on one of those it will show. i have novatec. best part is you dont have to be rooted. wish i was tho.

EDIT: I Learned This From "XSD"


This was by far the easiest and works on any phone, doesn't need to be rooted, no data cable, htcsync or pc/mac needed.

Just downloaded the terminal emulator app and did the method described... It does work, but it took me about ten minutes to actually find the entry without being able to search. I'll see about adding it to the tutorial tonight.

Cool, got an epson here. I had a feeling that my current evo looked a little bit different than my original one.

Did it in terminal on the phone as well. No need to install anything

Go to Terminal
Type in 'su', hit Enter (not sure if it's required, but I did it)
type in 'dmesg > /sdcard/info.txt' and hit Enter
Connect phone to USB cable, open info.txt in notepad, and search for epson or nova.

Got Epson!

Edit: Beaten. Should've read the thread first.

Do I need to root my phone to do this?
