Smile HTC HD2 liquid in the screen. Pls help

Hello there guys

so i got my replacement phone after i lost my htc hd2.they sent me a brand new htc hd2 in the box.recently the screen showed up a mark in the middle with liquid moving around if u press it. its doesnt have any affect on the screen itself but it just looks bad. I phoned the insurance company and they said they will send me a brand new after i return it. i was just wondering if its worth all the hassle and can be fixed easily. also send/recieve button for email seems to be working for Wi-Fi internet only and it wont download any emails using the network internet even tho i know it work perfectly since i use it alot.

just out of interest, anyone willing to buy brand new htc hd2 unlocked (the one they will send me) and how much u r willing to pay.

thanks

Sounds like a Newton ring to me.
I was hoping that the HD2 wasn't going to suffer from them as I've not seen any posts mentioning them until now (unlike with my old HD)
Normally caused by overheating through using bluetooth/wifi/3G/apps although don't expect HTC to admit that, they put it down to applying too much pressure to the screen.
If you're having problems with the phone and they're offering a replacement, I'd take it.
You never know, they could have sent you a refurbed model by mistake.

Probably posted while on the loo

OMG you are totally right. My original one never had such problems but the one they sent me came with a leather cover so i put it in and then put it in my pocket so i guess it could heat up easily with that. and btw how do i know it was refurbed model. it came in with a box and the screen cover and the wires. the box wasnt sealed like the my original phone

Without signs of minor damage on the phone it's hard to say it's a refurb unit, and it's totally possibly that it's a brand new phone.
It's very easy for a company dealing with returned phones to accidently ship one out as a new one.
There was a rather embarassing moment for a bloke who was showing his wife how to use her brand new phone from T-mobile when they stumbled across amatuer nude photos! The staff in the T-mobile shop's initial solution when they complained was to offer to delete the images rather than a new phone!
