Guest moxon Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 hi I know they dont do OLED anymore but there are 2 different type TFT screens on this phones . I had both next to each other today and I think Truly looks better than Lead one dial *983*24474636# (it only works on orange stock rom) LCD TYPE Glass: TRULY OR Glass: LEAD
Guest Arr Too Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 I think it's been noted that the LEAD version may get a slight blue tint on most ROMs.
Guest jurrasstoil Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 I think it's been noted that the LEAD version may get a slight blue tint on most ROMs. +1 I have a LEAD display and they made some changes that didn't make it into the 2.2 kernel source for god knows what reason, so i get slight color errors in the blue spectrum with every rom but the one my device came with...

By the sounds of it I have a LEAD Display too then.
Guest jurrasstoil Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 By the sounds of it I have a LEAD Display too then. You could take a look at this thread (linked to the post where we start talking about the LEAD problems). Maybe you can figure something out that would help fixing the problem with (some) LEAD Displays. :huh:
Guest T3KO Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Seems to be fixed in CM7. Had the problem on all Froyo Roms.
Guest jurrasstoil Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) had CM7 RC1 and nightly 4 (? i think) and it didn't fix it for me :) it uses the same kernel source as the 2.2 roms, so how could it i guess :huh: Edited February 27, 2011 by jurrasstoil
Guest T3KO Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Hmm had it on the black Sliders and Powerwidget. Think I had it on RC1 but now its gone.
Guest jurrasstoil Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 hmm, i'll give nightly 8 a shot, but doubt it will help :huh:
Guest Nervovred Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Mine phone has LEAD tft. I successfully solved the blue tint problem by flashing Hungarian stock rom through TPT.
Guest jurrasstoil Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 hmm, i'll give nightly 8 a shot, but doubt it will help :huh: nope, same problem. tried hungarian TPT, didn't work for me. only the stock boot.img that my phone came with fixes it.
Guest g-rasshopper Posted March 5, 2011 Report Posted March 5, 2011 I thought I'd bump this thread to the top as I understand that all new SFs sold in the UK are now being supplied with LEAD screens and B10 firmware (I'm not sure if the two automatically go together). There appears to be very little information out there about whether the new LEAD screens are better or worse than the TRULY ones.
Guest JimJam707 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Posted March 5, 2011 I'm using nightly 12 of CM7 now and the blue tint appears not to be gone, but has decreased.
Guest ufoman Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 TRULY TFT screens: http://www.trulydisplays.com/tft/index.html
Guest jurrasstoil Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 I'm using nightly 12 of CM7 now and the blue tint appears not to be gone, but has decreased. Try heating it up: eg. charging it with an AC charger or playing some performance-hungry games. I noticed that the blue tint gets worse the warmer the phone gets, which is kinda weird because with my original boot.img i don't have any color problems regardless of the temperature.

I'm sure someone said in another thread that the LEAD displays have deeper blacks. However, assuming that's true, the TRULY displays might be superior in other respects. Also, are the two phones you're comparing using a stock Orange ROM, or a custom ROM?

Guest g-rasshopper Posted March 19, 2011 Report Posted March 19, 2011 you are mixing LEAD (tft technology) and OLED (total different technology) :D in this thread we compare two TFT models Actually I'm not. I'm aware of the differences between TFT and OLED displays. However, not all TFT displays are the same. Some produce more backlight bleed than others. Here's the thread I was referring to: Link
