Is there a safe way to open the BB 8330 Curve to remove dust from under the screen. I have learned that the 8330 is not air tight. its annoying looking at the screen, and seening little particles under the screen.
So I think by way of the charger opening I have dust under the screen how do you get rid of it? I was going to use the computer cleaner air though the charger port but was worried.
Hey everyone, I'm a new Curve 8530 user with sprint and have had my 8530 for about 6 days now and I just happened too look down at the screen while it was locked and the bottom left corner is full of dust on the inside.... Has anyone else seen this on the 8520/30 yet? Is it difficult to get a replacement device?
What's the best way to get rid of the dust under the screen of a 8530? I recently noticed this and my carrier said it was caused by dust getting in through the speaker area on top of the phone and that there was nothing they could do, they tried using a canned air, but didn't budge. I asked both U.S. Cellular and Verizon reps what I should do and they say that I need to replace the phone. (Contact my Insurance Company, which is DTS Insurance I believe my carrier uses.)
So far to correct the issue I've applied a case that covers up most cracks and a privacy protector which made it so I can see the dust under the screen. but, still I'd like to know how to fix the issue.
So far the only thing I can think of is to take the housing apart and probably just put a new housing on, but clean the lcd underneath the plastic screen.
I have a ton of dust under my screen right now, and it is really starting to bother me. Is there any way to get the dust out of the screen? I don't mind taking the phone apart if it gets rid of it. I already tried to take the phone to the VZW store, but they didn't do anything.
I've got a week old 8520, put an invisible shield on the other day and it looks ok. One corner is screwed up because I had to peel it up to remove a speck of dust but over all it looks fine. I just noticed today that there was some dust under one of the corners, but it's under the plastic screen not under the invisible shield. I thought these screens were sealed? It hasn't been dropped or anything, barely been used. Any advise besides taking it off and cleaning it out? What else besides the special plastic tool can be used to remove the screen?
Lately, I've found out that dust has developed under my screen, it shows mostly in the sun. It's kinda annoying that you can't get rid of it, I used to think it was on my screen, but when I tried to wipe it off it won't go - that means it's under the screen. I heard you could get your Xperia changed in the first few weeks if that happens, but it's been 4 months since I bought it - I mean who would develop dust under his screen in the first few weeks?
Is there a way to get the dust from behind the screen on the Chocolate 3? I know a few phones you can pop the screen cover off, but I wasn't sure if you could with the Chocolate 3. Anyone else have this problem?
On my screen I have a white shaded dot. Its under the glass because it cant be wipped off or seen on an angle.
Its only 2 mm across.It cant be seen with a black screen but you can see it on a white background like the google home page.So I dont think its a pixal problem. I dont see dust on the edges or any where else other then this white dot.Is it dust or something else?
I have a Curve and this is the second time that I have plugged my Curve in (via USB) and used the Desktop Manager to back-up my Blackberry and it crashes my computer. I got the Blue Screen of Death both times that I tried to back up my Blackberry. I'm afraid it's going to crash my computer, or my Blackberry. I have read that by having the HP Printer driver installed it could cause it. I don't know if it's true or not.
Well, I got my blackberry curve 8330 reinstalled today after having everything wipe out a few days ago. Really gotta start from square one again...very annoying...the only thing is I do not have my memo and task app on my screen. Is there a website to download this? When I first got the phone, these apps were there so I'm just surprised that their not there now. I had downloaded bbm and other apps that were not there and that was not a problem.
Ok, so I have read on crackberry that BB's can't get viruses, however something is going on with my 8320. I don't App world, which I read causes the timer to pop up on screen and I don't have Facebook on my phone. I havent added any new Apps on my BB recently, but I am getting that stupid "sand timer" on my screen all the time and I can't go anywhere. I have Quickpull App and it is scheduled for pull everyday and I'm actually pulling the battery every day.
I cracked my 3G screen last week. It was my first time dropping since buying it on day one. I had it in my lap (which i normally never do) while driving and it fell flat on its face when i was getting out. I've already ordered a replacement glass and digitizer since the phone still works perfectly. My problem is that I can now see dust specks accumulating under the glass. What's the safest way to clean the LCD when I'm taking it apart?
Although there are more topics about this subject, I've got a specific question about this problem. Recently, I bought an iPhone 4S via the online Apple Store. A couple of days ago, I noticed that there is dust under the screen of the iPhone. The dust is in the middle of the screen and not that large (circa 2mm), but notable and annoying. I contacted Apple and they came with the following options: Send iPhone to repair (lasts 9-17 days);Exchange the iPhone for a new one, costs 29 euros.
If it appears that the dust comes from outside and not from the factory, I'd have to pay 250 euros in both cases. In view of the fact that I cope well with the iPhone - I always use an iPhone case to protect it and I've never had it in my pocket without the case - it seems to be illogical that the dust is my 'fault'. The inside of the case is made of leather, which doesn't correspond to the dust under the screen. However, I'm not completely sure that the dust comes from the factory, since I noticed it just a couple of days ago.
My question: is it wise to exchange or repair the iPhone, since it creates a large risk? I don't want to pay 250 or 280 euros more, this is 'required' if I decide to exchange or repair it and if Apple can prove that the dust doesn't come from the factory.
I just got a nokia C7 in July ...but now from january i am observing dust under screen...now in feb it has become worst and about 10-15 big particles are there ....so what should i doIs it Covered Under Warranty??If yes then where should i Take itTo nokia CenterOr to United MObile outlet as i have a united mobile warranty..
I have the E72-1 and I'm very happy with the phone. Using 022.007 today and I would recommend this phone to a friend.I have had a few known problems:pictures missing form the gallerythe D-pad fails intermittentlyNo indication when the charge is donebattery cover is a joke. Bad fit and to thin but overall the phone has worked very well. But now I have another problem that is more annoying.It looks like there is dirt/dust *under* the screen - I have checked the screen and there are no marks on the screen surface. I have used the case that comes with the phone from day one but that has not helped. How many here has seen this ? or am I the only one.I can see the dust/dirt clearly when the screen saver is running, it is very annoying.
Okay, got some dust under the screen. Not really noticeable except for one spec that catches my eye every time I look at the screen. Really annoying. I don't have insurance. Is there anything RIM or Verizon will do for me?
is there a way to remove the dust under the screen for blackberry bold 9700? i've viewed the Internet video on how to dismantle the blackberry bold 9700, but noticed that the screen is still attached to the lcd screen...
I hope that this does not seem like a trivial post, and maybe there are others out there in my same situation, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a good way to remove dust particles from under the screen? It appears as though the dust is getting in from the ear piece. I know that this is a frequent problem with touch-screen phones, as my old iPhone used to get it as well.Loving this phone, just hating that there are dust particles.
i have some dust under my bb screen but im not able to get to it. im guessing its sitting right on top of the actual LCD and the "screen protector" is lying on top of it. i cant get to it, ive looked up some vids and threads but none of them show how to clean a bold.
I have a new(well, was display model) 8310 & just got a 2gig data card for my new phone & loaded some songs & pictures onto it(nowhere near half filling the card). When I went to unplug it, it was frozen on the home screen!Tried a battery pull, to no avail. It booted up & was frozen again.
Came back to it bout 40 mins later & it had "Do you want to turn on Mass Storage Mode? You might not be able to access some media files in this mode." The trackball worked & I chose "No".Phone appeared to work, chose a ringtone I'd just loaded, no worries. Then went into my pictures... It only showed a few of my photos in thumbnails and froze again! When after another age, it decided to work again, all my pictures (about 30 but reduced to under 200kb before loading) were visible in thumbnails, but most of them were not in proper colour - only in red & green!
Next thing I tried was plugging it back into the computer, deleting & reloading the pics. I also chose 'convert for optimum playback' this time and when loaded & the phone asked about 'Mass Storage Mode' I chose 'yes'.So now it keeps freezing still, for shorter times without apparent reason, as if I've overloaded it(??) and most pics have appeared correctly, but some are still in green/red only.
