hey there. I put my moto g into my pocket and was left there for a few hours while I was walking around. I got dust in the dip between the screen and outer case. I got a piece of paper stuck in there as well. does anyone know how to get it out (where I live they don't sell compressed air)

Your worried about dust in the tiny gap between the screen and the phone edges, the moto g is splash proof meaning no Dust or Water can get behind the screen, so don't worry. And certainly don't use paper to try scrape it out. Try getting a pin or sowing needle to pick the paper out but be carful not to damage the screen I for one hate scratches!!

ah that's OK. I thought the dust was going to get under the screen. I tried a pin before but it was to thick. the piece of paper stuck in between looks horrible and I want to get rid of it asap lol

I was trying to get it out using a blade it went in but wouldn't go down fully to get dusty out

Do you have a pound shop? You can get USB hoovers for keyboard that might work, don't use a normal hoover though you can damage the screen and pull the LCD crystals out
Creating dead pixels.micro fiber cloth maybe?

Try masking tape. It works for lint and pet hair

I use an small paint brush. Put the phone facing down and blow gently while brushing. Works for me

Use a tooth brush, some cheap one with harder fibers.It won't scratch the glass, but it will remove the paper. Use it a bit at an angle so the fibers can get into the gap between the glass and the bezel.
