Not sure if anyone else has noticed or has this but when my screen is off it looks like there is fluid or something on the inner part of the screen. Almost like grease looks like on water .

Any ideas anyone.

Same problem here! Itīs only in the middle of the screen - (1 cm border) - the same for u?

you can only notice it when you tilt the screen to a light! you dont see it in the dark..

It's probably just the screen protector...

I honestly cannot see anything like grease on water below the screen when the phone is off. Possibly because all I see is grease on the screen from my fingers.

its just where the original screen protector was on it. I had the same. 1cm border arround screen. just give it a good scrub with a soft pollishing cloth to get it off ;)

Yea , same for me . Sorry but its not where the sreen protector is as it has never had one being tempered glass.

Hmm sounds like a warranty return then

it should have been a protector there. sure it's tempered glass, but the digitizer on top of it is plastic.

I have the same problem on the middle of the screen: 1cm x 2cm area.I can see it with dark background. If I tick this area with the stylus, it moves like some fluid.

I will try to take photos later.

Its under the glass , there is no screen protector on the device. My camera is broken so hopefully some photos will come up later

I have the same problem on my "original Touch" - I noticed that it's visible only when screen is pointed to some polarized light (for example laptop display, fluorescent tubes in subway). In the subway I can hardly read the text. Under the sunlight or under the normal bulb it's not visible (or barelly visible from very sharp angle).

I heard there is some polarization film under the plastic-glass that can get released and make this liquid effect.

My friend noticed this even on his Eten x500+, but not so bad.

This was one of the reason I get my Diamond - because I need to send Touch for warranty repair.

It's a bad news that this problem persists on Diamond :(

Yea I think the last user is probably right . I keep it in my jeans front pocket so it could be presure on the screen.
