Best Buys WET Zagg Install

[DomSim]

i had this happen when i applied a full body shield on my old touch pro which were notorious for going bad. i explained to the tech when i had to take it in and he said not to worry. they just use that indicator as just that, an indicator, not proof. they said they have to open the phone and then they can tell whether it had ever been exposed to water or not.

I'll call my Sprint too and explain the situation to them. Maybe they'll say something similar (although I doubt it because the Sprint Techs in Houston are IDIOTS lol)

She finally called back and the guy that sold me my phone was actually the manager. He was also the one who installed the shield. I built up a nice rapport with him when I purchased the phone and I guess it payed off. I'll get a new one if one of the ppl who reserved the 2nd wave doesn't want it today or when the next shipment comes in.
Thank god!!!

UPDATE: Somebody canceled so I'm picking up a brand new one today

I preordered a Clarivue antiglare screen protector before I got my phone. After installing it, I'll never look back. It does not leave fingerprints and it wont leave any sticky residue or collect lint like my Boxwave on my Touch Pro did. If you get lint on the Clarivue, use a piece of scotch tape to pick up the protector, then use a rolled piece of tape to get the dust off the back. Kind of difficult, but not so bad once you get the hang of it. And once you're done, you're done!

Are you sure it is activated ( the indicator ) ? What color is it? I've thought it was activated before only to realize that is how it looks normally... I think these turn pinkish?

Yeah, Im pretty sure it is. But I would assume that when its not white with red hash marks and is now all red that means its been wet. Right?

You lucked out. At least you're getting a new one. If it was anyone else other than the manager you would probably be SOL. Then it becomes one of those "he said, she said" type of things and nothing ever gets resolved.

BTW, it's rapport, not repour. Repour is what you do when your glass of lemonade is empty. Sorry I just had to point that out. I'm a bit of a grammar nazi.

So I go to get my replacement and the guy installs another shield. And of course he gets the indicator wet also.. So he gives me another replacement and I guess the 3rd times the charm =D>

And I was smart enough to pull my memory card in the original phone before going in so now I have two 8gb memory cards.
