Dust under the screen

Knuxr · #1 (**permalink**) 12-11-2009, 05:29 PM

I saw another thread about this but it was over a month old and I didn't wanna raise it from the dead.. But I have had my phone for all of 3 days and there is already dust under the screen, I was wondering if anyone else was having this issue now? I know some first release Hero's were having that issue but I just got mine and there is already a good spec under the screen that is quite obvious.

New threads are unnecessary. Bump an old one.

Some heros have it and some don't.

Can't win either way

I know I would get someone saying something if I resurrected a dead thread..

Either way I think I am gonna return mine as I am still WELL within the 30 days.

Trust me I won't get mad if you bump an old one. Its usually better, not a big deal but its easier to read if they're all in the same thread.

You don't like the phone? I would just tell them to send me a new one.

Love the phone but I got it from Best Buy so I am gonna just go return it for a new one since I am within my 30 days

Yes, I had the same problem. I've actually exchanged at Best Buy two times now since I got the phone. The first one wouldn't get text or voicemail but had no dust under the screen. The second phone started to look like the lint trap in my dryer with dust coming in under all corners. They balked at replacing it at first telling me they had never heard of this problem. Not sure what that had to do with anything since she was hearing about it now, but they changed it out. The one I have now has no dust at all so it can be remedied. Good luck.

Im just wondering if this issue has been resolved. I recently ordered my Hero, and expecting it any day now.

I'm still in my 30 days and I found just one piece of dust or something under my screen. I thought it was a dead pixel or something at first, but it's white when the screen is off. Should I get it replaced? Haha.

I am only getting it replaced because it will drive me nuts if I don't. Once I notice something like this I just cannot "unsee" it lol.

Did you get it replaced already? I'm just like you. When I'm using my phone now, I can't help but stare at the spec of dust haha. I just don't want to look stupid at the Sprint store telling them I want to replace it because of that one spec -.-
