Evo 3D physical defect? (now with pics)

Runnin_IT · #1 (**permalink**) 07-22-2011, 01:03 AM

Ok, I don't have pics. Only camera I have is the Evo camera. I have two really tiny gaps on the front of my 3vo on the left side. They are between the screen and the side of the phone. You have to look really closely, and it's real easy to miss them. Does anyone else have this? I went to a corp. Sprint store, and they were visible on another 3vo.

Ok, I attached some pics...although not very good ones, lol! My wife has a crappy camera, so I used a pencil to point to the approximate areas I'm talking about...

Nope, not seeing anything on my phone... but I'm not sure what you're talking about. What part of the left side, you'll have to be more precise... otherwise, I'm going to think you're talking about the two small microphone holes at the top left and bottom left of the phone

check this thread. I had the same problem. I returned the phone for that reason.

I returned twice for this issue with same problem. It ate me alive with a spork so I just got a new OG Evo (wife confiscated mine when I upgraded). I still have another upgrade coming so I'll wait till revision 3 or 4 comes out before I take the plunge again. I'll tell ya though, HTC makes top notch hardware...kinda.

I'm confused... is he even talking about the screen alignment issue? He said he has TWO tiny gaps on the left side of the device... Screen alignment problem is the whole side isn't it?

holy WTH....i just noticed them...it appears they are intentional...no way in the world i ever see these 2 1 mm tiny small things...wait...OP, did you really drive to a store and look for these things? mind-blower...I bet you couldn't get a human hair in either gap if someone offered you $1000.00

Lol, that's just it though. As I said, the pics really suck...the top gap is easily noticeable; the bottom one is not. Yes, I went to the store to see if that was normal; the top gap can easily let in dust or condensation. I returned that phone this past Sunday, though...not because of the gaps, but because the phone constantly locked up. In fact, it was locked up when I took it into the store. As an aside, my new phone doesn't have noticeable gaps either...
