I guess there's different screens made with the one. I think I like my old brighter one better though ****. This sucks either keep the new replacment with yellow screen or keep my old one brighter screen but call connectivity in the beginning is static infested.

Ohh, I see. I assumed it was a new replacement by your wording. I read "new replacement" instead of "new to me replacement." Durp.

I am the one who created the thread in the link, first I had the international version. Then I bought one from my carrier in my country Chile, and noticed the differences in screen, after that I sent it back thinking it was defective but there was no improvement in the second one that had the same yellow tint but also three burned pixels. So I sent it back again and got another new one and there is still yellow tint on the screen so this is a different screen, which is really frustrating as I think it's worse quality, it is also notable on the home and back buttons where the lighting on the phone with yellow screen is more blue and much stronger (inverse than on the screen)

In the end I kept my new one with the yellow tint because the other one was damaged and if I did not put them side by side I couldn't realize anything wrong, but it would be nice to see the same screen quality in all models.

Im going through the same exact thing I called tmobile and asked about it. They said we will send a second replacement but it has the same yellow tint

 

[DS1331]

That's what I'm afraid of I already added all my stuff on this replacment if they send another ans it's yellow I'll be pissed so idk if I should just keep this one and try to ignore it

Honestly,, I prefer that yellow look... It's like a warm fluorescent bulb instead of a cool one... Easier on the eyes

If you have both phones or are willing to buy a new screen (usually 1/2 of what the phone costs), read this post. If not, ignore, or read anyway. Your chose.

If you know your hardware pretty well you can always swap your screens. An example on how to find out how to do this is to Google your phone make and model with a key line like disassembly or take apart and follow suit for both phones and swap the screens, then put it back together.

Here's my recommended video(s) and I say videos because you just put HTC One. They both have to be the same model.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=6j25jajIq3g (HTC One S)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=w96ldQq5Q2k (HTC One V)

But of course this is time consuming and quite frankly dangerous and non-conventional in most cases but if you really hate the yellowish tint you might consider this as an alternative or last result.

You do realize the One S, V, and X are completely different phones than the aluminum, unibody One, correct? Those videos don't pertain to the One. We'd all be stuck trying to get the case apart without ruining it. After the case, the rest would seem easy.

I am also curious which screen uses more battery the yellow tint one or the bluish bright one hmmmm

I honestly doubt there's much of a difference between the two...The most discernible difference is probably the fact that your eyes don't bleed with the yellowish one in a dark room....
