[Q] Sand in my screen. - Optimus One, P500, V General

Yesterday i was lying on the beach and enjoying the sun(Greek sun). I had put my p500 in my towel, so to keep it clean and safe. But someone was calling me(it was private-maybe the devil was) and i got it sharp. It fell into the sand and the screen is full of sand. What can i do? I thought i should go to service, but i realized that they would tell me that the gurantee was lost(lg doesn't give a s**t for us, god bless andy, mik_os, franco and all developers that work hard to make us pleased with a stable phone). Please help me to find the solution, maybe a way to open and clean it. It is f**ig annoying! Thank you in advance!

Eh?
- dismantle the phone and clean it up
- take it to the LG service center and pay them to fix the result of your clumsy handling of the phone
What kind of advise do you expect here?

-1st of all it was YOUR fault to get dust behind the screen transparent panel.
-2nd, LG service is not **** at all, behave yourself and dont act like a kid.
[many ppl bricked their phones, just like me, and got it back, repaired with a BRAND NEW PCB! Which is equal to a new phone practically!]
-3rd, YES the guarantee does not cover you in case of this damage, you should be careful next time, unless you want to destroy any phone you own and replace it... that's not possible unless some of the companies are plainly stupid to give free cellphones of 160euros to everybody again and again.
Καλα ξεμπερδεματα.

Do not try to clean it with a towel or something like that or the sando will scratch all the screen, gently blow the sand away

How can i dismantle the phone? I don't think that it was totally my fault, because in this phone the gap between the screen and the panel is perfect to become full of dust or sand

Yeah sure, that reminds me of a lamer who dropped a NAS unit on the floor while wiping the dust off it and went to the manufacturer support forum to complain about bad design. After being called a moron, he claimed himself to be a leading design inventor.

I don't say that i didint make a mistake. You think of yourself as a judge. I opened the topic to ask if someone can tell me who to dismantle and clean the phone. It's not full but on a white screen it seems like dead pixels.
And because you are so wise. I don't live in us. I live in Hellas.

Even better. In Greece, you can go and burn down the Parliament for taking away your 15th sallary for 10 months worth of work. Also, ECB must be at fault, blame 'em!!!
P.S. If you are so worried about losing your warranty, dismantling the phone in a DIY way is a sure way to lose it once and forever.
Now, go back to LG service center, pay them for being lame and move on.

P.S. Being Greek, i feel so bad for some of my country's people attitude ... it's so embarasing representing a flag of your country saying bull**** in a forum that other Greek members too, behave and act like normal people do.
My advice dude, vasilakis1 , is to cut the crap.
The P500 does not have a problem getting dust into its screen, even if it had, IT WOULD BE NO EXCUSE!
People are clumsy and idiots, not only with cellphones but with any kind of product ... there's no reason for that, a company to replace anything for free. They're not charity !

Greeks are the most industrious people in Europe. I can not blame you, weren't you supporting Hitler in WW2? You destroyed the whole Europe and now you laugh with my country. Greeks are not guilty for the situation in the country. Even if you don't concern about my country, it's not funny, people that lost their jobs, they are starving, they have children and they cannot afford about basic things.

Διαφωνείς σε αυτά που λέω; Αυτός κοροϊδεύει τους Αγανακτισμένους αλλά δεν νομίζω να γνωρίζει την κοινωνικοπολιτική δομή της Ελληνικής κοινωνίας και το πόσοι άνθρωποι βρίσκονται στο αδιέξοδο και δεν ξέρουν τι να κάνουν. Αν τα είπα λίγο πιο χοντρά, ήταν γιατί εκνευρίστηκα για το σχόλιο του σχετικά με "15ο μισθό σε 10 μήνες δουλειάς".

Personal Question?

This thread is not about Photon, It is about me and I need some serious help. From my post here, most of you know me. Single, live in great upscale neighborhood, cool job. I don't do drugs, drink some. I walk around crib in boxers, scratch myself, fart, leave the toliet seat up, I'm me.
Was at local bar Monday and a local lesbian (she is cool) asked me if I knew someone that had a room for rent. I don't. She told me about lesbian friend that needed a room. Sorry, no clue. Why cant she stay with you I asked. She is still living with Ex. She asked about my crib! I told her (and seriously) I really don't play well with others! I have my TV's, Pool Table, 3 Computers (don't ask!) Actually 4 computers with job.................No, I cannot live with anyone.
THEN, I met said lesbian. On a scale of 1 to 10, she is the square root of 1Tb devided by 69 plus 10 to the square of 2!!!!!!!!!!!! If you google Ice-T and Coco, she is Coco with Black hair and light blue eyes that will melt mear mortal men. 5'11", Soft spoken, laid back. Told me she is quite and just needs a few months as she just moved back from West Coast. After I dropped $75.00 on food and drinks, I told her I would think about it. To be honest, she can have my crib and my check, I cannot get her off my mind!!
And you really want to know how bad it is, I came to work today and left Photon at home!!
Now she is staying with friends in the hood (My brother lives that way and I don't visit him!) on one hand, I want to help. On the other hand, I'm a man and.......I dont know. I'm going to lunch!
Sally! She probably needs to know stuff up front. Boxers, etc.
Personally I wouldn't. I am not a trusting person, especially with all of your loot scattered around the house.

OMG did ya rub Aladdins lamp & forget what ya asked for last time you was drunk..Cmon!! Thats like the best situation any single bachelor would want, Make her leave a deposit if ya worried...
Well now that I have eaten, I decided i am NOT going to give her my spare room. Nothing good can come from it. First time I see her come out of shower it's over. I'm a dog. My ex-wife will tell you that. My mother will tell you that. He** even my Doctor will tell you that as he gives me Rx for my peepee!!! (I gotta get picture of me and the Lesibans?)
Actually, this entire mess is the Photons fault!!! The original lesiban also has OtterBox and started asking me phone questions. Then she wanted to know what Hennessy taste like. Then bumming smokes..............I need to meet a stright chick!!!
True, it is a recipe for disaster.
What happens when work sends you away again? You come to an empty house. You don't exactly have the worlds best track record with women, according to your posts. You'll move her in, next thing you know you're paying for her cell minutes, clothes, car, nose candy, etc.

I have pretty much made up my mind it 100% no. This is a mess waiting to happen and I have no way to win.
From my understanding, what she is paying in the hood she could never make it 1/2 way to my neighborhood.
2. Unless you have 725 Credit Score and $100K renters insurance your not coming to my hood. Next, you have to physically go to UGI and PP&L and get the utilities in YOUR Name before they will give you keys. Which is why she is looking for the roommate deal.
3. What happens if I get some a**, what do I do with her? (Or do I have to fight the lesibin?)
Anyway, its a no win situation where I will get f**ked, in a bad way, if I let her, or anyone else, stay with me!

*****ing: My broken prime

My beloved prime after it was catapulted by my 10 month baby across the room (yeah, she's that strong, we call her Yetti behind her back).
Surprisingly enough, the bad mammajamma is still fully functioning (minus the fact that swiping your finger across those cracks will draw blood, the darn thing is razor-sharp).
Think I can RMA? (The prime, not Yetti)
I tried to nandroid-restore it, but it's still cracked, I'll write a *****en email to the dev with a feature request, "Please make option to restore broken screen or else I'll give you 1 star".
oh, and it made my GPS super-awesome now! I can see 4000+ sats now, some of them I can pick right through earth when they are right below me.
Yeah, no, it's a bummer, I wanted to lock my self in the bathroom and weep like a 6 years old girl who's Pony got hit by a truck.
I'm picking donation for a new TF700, tax exempt.
Cheers.

Dude! omg, it's a brilliant idea, I didn't think about it, I might scoop some clams as a down payment for my future TF700.

That just hurts me from looking at it. If you can't scrap it for parts do you think a screen protector would prevent your fingers from getting cuts? If your into programing you can turn it into a test tablet for running and tinkering roms/apps.

Ant under screen!

I just want to share my misery and frustration...
Well here's my story: I received my nexus 10 in good order (i live in singapore btw), after 5 days of use, i came home one day and found this ant stuck under the glass screen of my N10.
Can someone explain how the heck an ant can even get there?
I guess i have no choice but to ship it back to US to get a replacement.
Wow.....now that's something you don't see everyday. Talk to Google, they should send you a replacement before you send yours back. However your cc will be charged till they get your one with the ant.
Also I thought the LCD was glued to the gorilla glass 2?
lmaoo looks like that ant sure does love that sexy resolution

Exactly! that's what i thought to.. perhaps the ant was there since manufacture?! then today it decided to move right to the centre of the screen and die there. great.

White House Petition for Unlocking Phones

The petition made it's goal:
http://www.androidauthority.com/phone-unlocking-petition-goal-159064/
Now comes the waiting (like Tom Petty said, It's the Hardest Part).
This must be technically akin to what people with a history of cancer feel like while waiting for their own biopsy results.
Crossing my digits here, that was such a dumb, insensitive, openly 'corporate-paid' law...too quickly passed, too.
Nobody needs a chastity belt for their smartphone--it negates the intrinsic 'smart' of the phone itself, even!
How many people enjoy the freedom to change their mind on anything? How many dealerships will turn away repair work on another brand car?
Right now, this law is actually the worst kind of thing for U.S. trade, even...precisely timed as we discover how obsessed the Chinese government is with our trade secrets rather than even our military ones...
How can we compete with that, when they will not only be able to manufacture Android phones from any designs they might 'come across', as well as make them with any OS they please, at half any current U.S. prices? I'm sure AT&T, in all their wisdom, has a plan for that, though, should it ever even happen (beginning with scoffing).
No, they probably have vested interests already buying stock in generic Chinese phone manufacturing plants, themselves...
hmm...
After fulfilling a contract, shouldn't our ESN's be unlocked to be used on any cdma carrier? Where's that petition?

HELP!!!

A friend of mine is having a serious problem. His family has had all of their cell phones and computers including tablets and tv dvr box hacked. The hackers have gained complete control over everything. .. text messaging, cameras, information and even the accounts themselves. The original phones were through tmobile and the account was closed and all new iphones phones were literally destroyed. He opened a brand new account through att buying all new samsung s4's and within days hacked again. Out of frustration, he took a hammer to the phones. These hackers are theatening their lives. They have even accessed other peoples phones through theres! The police pretty much won't do crap. These people are not tech smart! I am somewhat tech smart. So my question is this: is there something I can do to figure out how they are doing it and is there a way too prevent them from doing this?? Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

These are not new to me. They can even copy your simcard without your knowing and do the phone call with your number. They can do these by scanning your phone frequency while you're using your phone and not too far from you.

Have they spoke to the phone company? It seems as if this is a highly personal attack on your friend and his family. Personal attacks are usually not done by strangers, which would mean your friend should know who is doing it. If he has proof of threats on their lives, the police have to take that seriously. If not the best route might be to take that hammer to the offenders face, not the poor phones.

This is what we call conspiracy. The way to prevent it is using another technology which we don't have. Try to subscribe with someone else's name with another new phone. If these methods still fail, I don't have any idea then.

Hmm
Maybe the hacked device is the pc! Each and evry device you connect to ur pc gets compromised!
To resolve this problem search for unknown applications installed on the pc! And uninstall them!
And before uninstalling turn on your firewall! Maybe that application resist to uninstall which may cause breaking ur pc completely!
And after doing all this! Only solution for recovering mobiles is to factory reset them!
Hit thanks if i helped you!
If FemtoCell is the actual tool then its the neighbours as it only works from within a 15-40 FT radius. Walk over to the neighbours house and ask them to locate the device then smash it with a bat.
By any chance do these neighbours work for any cell phone company? As what they are doing with vendor equipment is illegal and can even get the vendor in hot water (ie Verizon, aTT, TMob being the vendor here). These are usually given out as cell phone signal boosters for rural areas, and if thats the case ... phone the provider and tell them the adress of the neighbour with the FemToCell and see the vans show up fast.
TLR Kick you neighbours ass!

I completely agree with you slimdizzy but what if they are not US citizens.

Im sure FemToCell is used worldwide. I just assume USA/Canadian as that what I am and normally deal with. Either way its malicious.
This issue sounds to be a WiFi attack. More than likely they have had their routers encryption cracked and the hacker used that to gain access to each device.
