Missing pixels on Universal.......

[joey jojo]

Hi guys, recently i read a thread in here about missing pixels on the camera and saw some pictures of other peoples pixel faults.........

I didnt notice mine until i read that thread abd suddenly i had 15 on my screen, and for an xda exec that was about 3 weeks old, i thought .. . . thats typical that this would happen to such a cool device.

I realised i was on the newest test IMATE rom and it was playing up, so i was going to downgrade anyway.... i thought that rom might be the cause..

I downgraded to the latest Orange rom, (its an o2 device) and low and behold, the missing pixels are back........ not one missing pixel/white dot.
anyone know why this might have happened with switching roms????

I'm confused. You say the missing pixels are back (but don't say whether they ever went), and then you go on to say, "not one missing pixel". So, have they gone or not?

My suspicion is that the bulk of the camera pixel problems reported are hardware related, and firmwares will make no difference, although there are reports that the latest ROMs do have a negative effect on the camera.

Cheers,

Steve.
