Water between screens.

[Ambrosius]

Well I was seating by the pool and got splashed by the kids a couple of times. My Touch was in my pocket the whole time, but after we were done, I looked at the touch and it seems to have a bit of distortion right in the middle of the screen like someone had placed a drop of water between to pieces of glass.

It has been this way for a couple of weeks now. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get rid of the distortion. When I press in the center of the screen it goes away but comes right back as soon as remove the pressure off the screen.

Thank you.

Does anyone know what size torx screws these are? I have a set of torx screw drivers but nothing this small.

I believe they're t6

I know I'm new here and don't mean to speak out of turn, but before I tried dis assembly I would try submerging in a container of rice for a couple days. Just might do the trick.

Does it look like an oil slick under there? and is 'water' nicely indented by 5mm all the way round the screen in a nice square? if so its a known issue - I took mine in and was fixed under warrenty.

I dropped mine in the toilet. Had it under the towel and when I grabbed the towel it fell in. I took the battery out and shook the hell out of both unit and batt. Then put it in a ziplock back of rice for 2 days. I've had no problems in over a month....

How did the rice taste?
