Hi I recently bought a LCD assembly from China the resolution 480x320. It is supposed 960-by-640-pixel resolution at 326 ppi. Is it common to lose resolution on an after market LCD ? Also the battery is draining very fast. Are most cheaper after market lcd screens low in resolution like this?
Is this a good question?

It is not possible to install parts that are off specs into apple devices, how can you be sure that the LCD is actually 480*320?

I went to a site that test's the screen and it said 480x320. The siite was something like testmylcd.com
That's a misunderstanding, every iPod touch 4 reports this resolution because the browser need this resolution to properly organize the webpage. The actual rendering and display is 960*640, that's how the retina display and the new iOS graphic framework works

It is very common for aftermarket LCDs to not meet OEM specs - that's why it's critical to buy from a reputable supplier such as iFixit or eTech Parts. The poor quality screen may also be the cause of your excessively fast battery drainage.
