This strip thing is horrible! I bet mine is cause by condensation! I am the only person using this phone and it has never been drop in water. I took it back to Malaysia where it is a tropical country and humidity is super bad! There is so much water content in the atomsphere.

See, this is not accurate reading at all!

Just have to explain it to them?

How do you take the strip off the battery n put it on the phone?

Buy some new stickers off Ebay. I put tape over mine to keep the moisture out of them since I live in a high humidity area.

How to take the strip off the phone? Use tweezer?

I don't know if you guys ever noticed but there's 2 strips under the battery cover on the touch pro 2. 1 is on the same side as the stylus and the other is directly under the battery (you don't need to take the battery out to see it) there's a little tab covering it so you can't really notice it but its under there.

Well, in florida there is a law that prevents cell phone companies from deciding to void your warranty based solely on the moisture indicators. At verizon when I worked as a technician we could not deny a customer warranty coverage unless we had more than 1 thing that showed moisture, like water in the camera lens or under the lcd. If I was you I would fight it. If they wont budge then I would take it to a third party and document the condition of the phone and then send that information to the bbb and your local consumer agency. Good luck.

[QUOTE=chong67;1897891]My phone seems to be working fine now. After I post this, my phone works fine and it came to a crawl again. Then I figure out it was trying to poll the Yahoo pop3 every 30 mins and something it would just hang. It would not come on. Now I have to get rid of my pop3 for my Yahoo.QUOTE]

sounds like yahoo is the issue here.... try the email with another email service.... there might be a issue with yahoo's servers where you are at also...
