I was wondering if anyone else is having a similar problem. I have a vertical bar on the left side (not edge) that has no response to touch. I tried it even in recovery and it doesn't work. Do you guys have any solution other than changing the digitizer?

Nope. I had the same issue where the right 10% of my screen wasn't responsive. Took it to Sprint and it was a bad digitizer. They replaced the whole screen assembly since the digitizer is hard to fix on the 3d. Free for me with TEP, but it would have cost $35.
You can download apps that test the screen and find if you have dead spots or ghost touches. I myself had to lock/re-lock my phone twice to finish this post, cause mine is going bad. :-\

Okay I cracked my screen a few months back nothing major I barely notice it. Now however my Bluetooth isn't working (unrelated) and sprint won't look at it because of the screen so I have a couple of questions.
The first is that I bought a screen and digitizer without the LCD is it possible to replace it that with out the LCD and glass already together.
next question is what would cause my Bluetooth to stop working completely?
Thanks

It's the digitizer assembly, not the actual LCD Screen. it's what goes on top.
What he said.
But do you know if your actual screen is broke, or just the digitizer.

My screen is shattered from a drop. It works still without any problems. Would this be what I need to fix it? If so, I'm in for $100.

It probably is all you need if the lcd is still working, however my experience on older htc phones is that they are always very difficult to put in despite what the seller says. Often the lcd gets broken while separating the broken touch screen.The best way is to get a unit of BOTH the lcd and the touch screen digitizer-an assembly- already together. That will still be pretty difficult to do so don't expect less. Won't be long till a bunch of parts phones start surfacing on ebay and screen prices drop.
Does anyone else get a weird halo if they push on their screen or on the back of the phone too hard? I can actually launch widget placement by pressing on the back left side of the phone. T
I would take it in to get a replacement. I had this problem with a DX and I couldn't figure out what it was. It turns out the battery was damaged and it swelled up and was putting pressure on the screen. Since you can't just swap out the batteries in these I would take it in.

I just want to bump this up, as i feel this is a serious problem for the DNA... i too had this thing happen with my 3 week old DNA.
If you press half way down the screen and below you can see a rainbow discoloration happening on either left or right side of the screen(similar to when pressing the old school calculators display). I checked a coworkers DNA and his is doing it too. I then called VZ yesterday morning and i was 2 days out of my 14 day period but they did the exception of switching it for a new one. I got the new one at the store i bought it from and the new one is doing it too...
To do this test press about 3/4 of the way down on the display, bring up this page in your phone so you can see the discoloration.
The first 3 week old phone had done it for so long that it left a black shadowy print on my screen (similar to a burnt display) I will be calling VZ back this morning to see what they can do, since from what i was told by tier 2 is that they have no record of this problem being reported.
First DNA came with the old Software, and the new DNA has the latest installed.
You must be pressing pretty Damn hard because mine doesn't do that when I use it.

It's not an issue, any screen will do this, it's just how screens work. There's absolutely no reason to be pressing hard enough for this to be an issue.

Just got mine 3 days ago and just tried this on whole screen and no where can I get this to happen and I'm applying a lot of pressure. It is in a otterbox defender case though so maybe it's keeping it from flexing but I doubt it.

Yea he has to be squeezing hard. I had to apply over 5 lbs of pressure(give or take ofc) to get the liquid crystal to move. Made my feet sweat a lil. This guys a nut.

this is a common problem. ever hear of the blue haze and dots? it was prevalent with anyone who uses the holster shell.... it squeezed too hard on the sides and created a blue haze of screen discoloration. my first dna had it and I didn't even use the holster shell. I think it was from keeping it on my pockets when I sat down.. I never did screen in, and with the rounded back, it was pushing pressure on the edges which causes this... doing that overtime messed the screen up. just Google blue haze dna or something and you'll see tons of threads with pics. it really sucked. there's a soft spot on the back of every dna, it was just a design flaw. wonder if the one has it?

Hi guys.
when i am on a landscape mode only, a big square appears every 2-10 seconds on the left upper side of the device (left to the LG logo)...
is it a software or a hardware issue?
Thanks!
Same issue here. No clue.

anyone else have this issue?
that's really strange.
I too am having the issue. Will probably use this to justify trading for another phone within my 45 day Best Buy silver premier return window. I like the phone but this issue and how my phone just shuts offs needing me to hold the power button to reset twice a week is getting annoying. I also noticed the back is easily scratched. Always run my screens naked and never had a scratch since my Diamond Touch so figured the back would fare as well as screens. Picked up three noticeable scratches on back within a week.

Is there a reason for these phones turning off like that? It happens to me a bit too, and I have to hold the power button for a bit to get it to restart.
@OP: No, I do not notice this issue. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right area though..
I think it may be related to heat. The area on mine sort of stretches and distorts the image in a nice rectangular area. If you look at the teardown, it is where the ram is located along with processor underneath. Since it happens to everyone in the same spot, I doubt it's a defect in the screen but a symptom of the heat. Can't be a harbinger of good things.

On my OG, there are a few yellow spots in the screen, mostly around the edges, only visible on pure white. The largest is in the lower left corner (portrait orientation). In portrait it isnt very noticeable, but in landscape, that entire corner is dead, about 1/4 inch in. I can't touch it, but it displays fine. This causes problems typing and playing games in apps that force orientation in that direction in landscape. Old Snow JB, Stock ICS and current Stock JB all did it. Any ideas on what the cause is? It only does it in landscape, right above the back softkey.

If it happens in every single rom, and since this issue hasn't been brought up before, it's probably just your phone. :x
Got insurance?
I have a yellow spot in lower left portrait add well. Doesn't seem to effect touch sensitivity though. Is almost bugging me enough to do a best buy warranty claim...

I figured it was.. I was grasping at straws. Sigh. I do with Best Buy. But I don't have good records with warranties and insurance. 7 Captivates, 3 Atrix 4g's...
