While the HTC Incredible may be immune to the screen issues that affect the Nexus One, it looks like there is a new and potentially more annoying issue which affects not only the Incredible, but it’s new big brother, the HTC EVO 4G. The new problem has to do with faulty grounding in the screens of both HTC devices causing the upper portion of the screen to become unresponsive when not being held. As you can see from the picture above, this causes some serious problems when you’re not actually holding the device and can make simple tasks like pulling down the notification shade impossible.

Seriously, can anyone actually push out one of these “superphones” without all the hiccups we’re currently seeing. Maybe Motorola? Samsung? Anyone?

Hit the break for the depressing footage.
