Anyone with dust under the screen?

---

Seems like a few people on Android Forums are having this issue. Anyone else noticing dust under their screens, especially after keeping the phone in your pocket for a while? Evidently, for those that have the issue, it's noticeable under bright light.

My phone should be in my hands tomorrow or Friday, but obviously I won't stand for dust under the screen. That's something I'd expect with a Razr (which mine suffered from back in the day)... my G1 never had this problem.

HTC SVP c500 (on orange UK) aka HTC Typhoon had the infamous dust problem too.

I have quite a few specs of dust under the glass on the lower left of my screen. May gave to contact Google to see what the replacement policy is.

Grrrr

god I hope this doesnt become a wide spread issue!!! I have no dust under my screen thus far... and I hope it stays that way.

I also have dust under my screen. I called HTC yesterday and they told me that i can exchange it for a new one within the 14 days, but I'll lose my engraving (kinda lame.)

hopefully the next one doesnt have the same problem. Would be nice if there was a way to clean it.

You're better off finding out if it's an issue as early as possible. As soon as I get my phone, I'll be keeping it in my pocket when not in use (though that may be a very limited time). If it gets dust, it's going back.

I keep the phone in it's little case it comes with inside my pocket, takes an extra second to get out but it's only temporary until some companies come out with some sweet cases.

But that won't tell you if the seal around your screen (or wherever the dust is entering from) is defective or not. That's why I suggested "trying" to get dust in early, by keeping it in your pocket at times. If it doesn't get dust, then you're fine.

I don't want to test this out... as soon as my full-body screen protector gets here, it's going on the phone and staying there. No dust for my phone!

i just realized that one corner of my screen makes a clicking sound when i apply pressure to it (bottom right corner). Upon closer inspection i realized the clicking was the screen adhesive not sticking down. I can see the corner of the screen moving verrry slightly under pressure (probably .005" worth of movement) This is also the corner most of the dust is accumulating. It looks like the adhesive they use to hold the glass down is at fault. Hopefully this isnt widespread.

Calling HTC now to demand my exchange! If you have dust under your screen try pushing on the corners.
