Returning my EVO..bad LCD. - Page 2

Zagg = water solution...thing it may have gotten under the screen and distorted it? Did you install it or did someone like Zagg or Best Buy do it for you? If so, they were at fault if that was the case. You probably either got a bad one, or the water solution did something to the screen.. I don't use any protectors that req water to put them on....Sprint has 3 pack of screen protectors just for the Evo that is $12.99...Get those..

Well just got back from returning it. They were pretty decent about it. When I called he said the Radio Shack warehouse had 543 EVO's... I went there within 45 minutes and it was down to 198. So I'm lucky I went right away. New on ewill be here Tuesday by FedEx..

I highly doubt it was from my ZAGG protector, I really didn't put much of the spray on there. I'm pretty good at putting those on, I've done a ton. I thought the same thing at first, but I did notice that the edge of the screen was "bleeding" before I even put a protector on.

Nobodys fault, just a bad screen. ish happens..but over the weekend!! ahh! back to the ghetto lg rumor 2.

Look like water damage, the home and menu buttons light are blow. I won't put a full body protector until I know the EVO's are fully stocked. It's good they are replacing it. Hopefully Sprint systems don't crash again,lol.

Similar thing happened to me. I let mine dry for about 3 hours before putting the battery back in and as soon as I noticed the damage I took it out and let it sit overnight. Some of it cleared up but for the most part it's still there. I should be getting a replacement sometime next week.

I've been told by my sprint store that it will take at least a month to get a replacement. How are you getting a replacement so fast? Not using a sprint store?

that's not a burn-in... it's the transparency of the menu. What you're seeing is what's behind the menu.

Wow, I would be ever so slightly irratated too but as long as its getting made right in a timely matter you cant be too upset, as you clearly stated that youre not and you know these things happen lol. I feel super lucky that i got my evo day after launch (yes i found 4 at one store lol) and so far not one single issue. and have fun with the rumor 2 lol i had the rumor and i wasnt a fan haha
