Re: Does your screen show Rainbow Banding?

I also hate going to the store. The rep I had asked me what i wanted to do, I said to please mail one out. The less time spent a Sprint store the better.

Re: Does your screen show Rainbow Banding?

i had a zagg protector on my tp1 and i took it off and as i was taking it off the screen kinda lifted up.Then I noticed it had the colors on it.When I sent it in for repairs they said i had water damage,my phone never touched water,bs.So when I got my tp2 I stayed away from zagg.I have a removable protector that comes off without alot of force but not without u taking it off and so far no rainbow.I put a mirror screen protector on my tp1 and with it on you cant see the rainbow,so you might want to try that if all else fails.

Re: Does your screen show Rainbow Banding?

The original TP2's you get from the store (VZW, Sprint) last for about 3 months it seems. All the refurbs last about a month and a half for me. They really need to figure a way to make these screens to better fit user's needs

totally scanned the thread.... anyone realize the bottom hardware buttons are a straight on picture... and the top of the device, where htc and sprint are.. the phone seems to be tilted.. htc toward the back, sprint towards the front

hows that possible... was this real or did it turn out to be photoshopped?

I had this with my touch pro 1, it happenend with and without a screen protector, and it happenend to all 5 of them.

It also happend to my first tp2, so if HTC didnt get it together there are going to be a lot of pissed off people buying the EVO.
