My phone isnt broken, it still operates but my screens colors are gone... id hope there is something i can do other than a warranty exchange because i have hard spl'ed my phone and this is just a huge mess! =( please help! I didnt drop it in water or drop it at all, it was in my pocket, i took it out... and now everything looks faded and washed out =( it slowly looks like its coming back, but i dont think itll ever be the same =(

I'm no expert, take out the battery and SIM card..blow on the phone, go to McDonalds, grab a 5 piece Nugget and some BBQ sauce...eat the McNuggets and then put the battery back in along with the SIM...charge the battery to 100% and turn it on and see what happens.

Sounds like an LCD issue. Can you post a picture? Unfortunately, every white screen washout I've seen has ended with a return. :(

See this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332236

Out of the three, two needed to be replaced. There may be some hope with removing the battery though, but the guy that had the luck left it out over a whole vacation.

I have similar problem with HTC 8125... i know you have a Tilt. my suggestion is to return it if it's under warranty. you can reverse back to the original settings. just check out other posts.

has anyone figured out how to solve this problem? i have the same issue with my htc tilt. however, the screen toggles between the "washed out" screen and the normal beautiful screen. i have dismantled the device several times using Mike's instructions, but i cant figure out which connectors are out of place please please help me out. i can't afford another screen/phone right now

how come you just didnt replace it? it happened to mine..i tried everything possible..minus opening cuz that would void the warranty..so i just got it replaced by At&t..problem solved

I got the same problem took it to AT&T and replaced it. But what worries me now is that I have changed my mobile 3 times already and this is the fourth one. Every time it was a different issue. I wonder once I run out of warranty, which happens towards the end of this year then what? I wish there is some other option of extended warranty or anything that can be taken now.
