Knew this would happen.... - HTC EVO 3D

Soooo, I pick up my phone to use it like normal and there it is. Dust specs all around the left bottom corner of the screen. I'm pissed. Any suggestions on what to do?

Please please, if I pay 200 for a device. I shouldn't have dust under my screen. This much is just unacceptable. Now if you wanna be a smart ass. Leave it to the pm's.

Ok this is what you do. Get your phone. Put it in the microwave. MAKE SURE IT IS SCREEN UP. Set microwave to defrost. Watch the pretty colors. Remove phone. Let it cool. Viola, no more dust.

dust is dead skin, so its probably your fault, stop dropping dead skin on your phone. Problem solved.

Thread locked due to non-senseness of replies so far, except for 1 (take it to the store). I am closing this before it becomes a larger flame.

Crooked Screen??

Does anybody else have a slightly crooked screen?
My EVO 3D screen is slightly turned clockwise (to the right). Its very slight but noticeable. When i look closely i can tell that the corners aren't lined up with the glass.
On top of that, ive noticed one dead pixel...
I have the $8 a month insurance. Do you think this constitutes bringing it in?

Yes bring it in. Now that you have noticed it, it will continue to bother you. I don't know when you got yours but if you are within your 30 days you can just swap it out. I had this problem and took mine to Sprint store and since I got mine by trading my ns4g for it they wouldn't swap it out. I called Sprint & explained my situation and ended up getting it replaced through tep. They sent me a new phone and that one was worse. Called them back & they sent me another and this one is perfect. If you can live with it and it won't bother you then there is no reason to try, but if you think it will drive you crazy now that you have noticed it, i say take it in. For me once I noticed it on mine it drove me crazy especially on a bright colored screen where it was noticeable.

Lol defend the guy who can't search or just scroll through a few pages of threads to find the answer he's looking for.
So what, we just let the multiple thread creation process continue and not tell them about the other threads that are already created about his exact same issue? Why don't we just get rid of the search function altogether since we aren't required to use it anymore before making a new thread?

This phone is good but if I had to nitpic I have 2 things I wish I could change about it, the extruded camera section on the back (holy sht this is asking to be scratched) and the camera button that drags on my hand everytime I touch the phone (couldnt they have put the button on the top left instead??).

Yeah it's glass but for comparison, go up to your window and slide your finger around that, then do it to your phone's glass, there's the difference.
Also my phone fell and its glass shattered (first time I've EVER damaged a phone -.-) so before I shipped my phone out after its replacement came in, I did more drop tests to see if the glass was really that crappy. I dropped it onto marble floor (where it broke the first time) at least 7 times from different heights and with an already cracked screen, it didn't crack ANYMORE so I just got really unlucky the first time it fell, but I'm really impressed by the glass.
And the phone rocks too =p

Those are stupid reasons to waste time exchanging phone after phone. Light leakage and a tilted screen don't hinder functionality in the least. I've got the light leakage...oh well. I don't use my phone in the dark a lot for it to be an issue and even if I did oh well....it still works. Some people are exchanging their phones constantly for retarded reasons. I have a hard time believing that out of 6 devices ALL of them were defective to the point that they couldn't be used.

Looks interesting but since I got my very first dumbphone I never had problems with getting water on it.
It opens up possibilities, but nothing I need at the moment.
Passing it on to my foolish friends though, so thanks for that!
No problem!
So it makes it water resistant but not proof right?

sent from my Galaxy SIII ...haha jk, I FOiLed ya!
I want see more reviews as its really new. But This is real. And does work. Here is how.
Hydrophobic nanocules are applied via vacuum. Thus coating the outside AND INSIDE from water molecules (which are bigger than the nanocules) thus can't get in and create a conduction.
It is rated itx-7 meaning it is waterproof to up to 30min at 1 meter (3feet) depth... Jeez. So i wanna go swimming with it

Its not meant for warranty purposes.. This is just for anyone that wants to protect their device from water damage.
Im sure it voids the warranty..
*edit* .. I think they are also trying to get in with (somebody.. I forget, but they mentioned it at CES).. so that phones come with the Liquipel protection - which is a great idea but than the suppliers end up losing money because of not having to replace asany phones.. Not sure how it all works but somebody loses potential mula

i played with this stuff at CES this year. It was Fascinating! They used the stuff on a Napkin and had it sitting in a pool of water. When you pushed the napkin around in the water it never got wet and just rolled off (unless you were extremely harsh with it).
Quite impressive to see. You could also see the water interacting with the screen as it splashed against it (showing that its not just a "fake" cover)

The nano-coating also prevents the indicators from getting water on them... do a search on youtube

Slight bend???

Took my phone out of my pocket today to notice a slight bend. I looks like right were the two covers meet. Was wondering if anyone else has maybe noticed this. I do keep my phone in my pocket all day but I don't think it should bend that easy. Let me know what you gentleman think.
post some pictures man!!! Without pictures, its just another OCD thread.
There are so many OCD threads it's amazing. I'm not saying this one is. But, I would suspect this phone would bend VERY easily.
1) it's paper-thin
2) if you watch the YouTube video about how the aluminum was machined/milled, you see that aside from the lower half, the upper half is 2 very thin aluminum rails (sides) bridged by another super thin aluminum rail across top. So yes, thus will bend very easily. Aluminum is incredibly weak (I'm a machinist).

will post pics when i get home. My god everyone wants proof of everything. No trust anymore. Just wondering if anyone else had noticed wasn't a big deal. The mods can delete thread if need be. You can see by my post count I don't post a million and one things about dumb stuff. You can also see from my join date that I have been around awhile and only post serious stuff.

A slight bend tin aluminum strip? Serious stuff for sure
Dude, it's hard to comment on something without pictures. All we can say is, "oh wow, that sucks."

its not that hard to comment without pictures. Its bent pull your phone out of your pocket and see if you notice a slight bend. If not go back to moms basement and leave it alone.

Pardon me, but you're speaking to an adult, and I happen to be a homeowner. Grow up with the "mom's basement" stuff. At least use an apostrophe if you're going to insult someone's intelligence.
Anyway, post some pictures and we'll have some actual comments for you.

My appoligies Mr. Homeowner. It was a simple question that doesn't need a picture to answer. Unless you can't look at your phone and see if you notice a slight bend from being in your pocket. I don't understand why these forums get overrun with morons. It was an observation I made. Apparently a bad one. Never mind delete thread until someone else notices it.

Looks like the whole phone has an arc to it from the side. I bent it back the other way and is better but can still see it.

Phones bent I think that is pretty serious. Have thread deleted sorry to waste your time.

Let the trolling go guys.
It's over a damn picture.
OP. It would be nice to have a picture though, just to see where the bend is occurring for you and people can further check to see if it's just your device or others, and lead a discussion from there.
It's not that we don't trust, it's just that it helps when explaining physical properties

I think you can assume no one else has noticed a bend in their phone caused from being in their pocket, since there are no threads about this.
We're all morons because we would like a picture of your bent phone? Okay.

It's a bend right were the two pieces come together at the red bar by kickstand. I said I would post pic when I got home. Then all the dumb stuff starts. Which always happens in here and give xda a bad rep. Just delete thread mod. No point suppose to be a community to discuss.

In before the lock!
OP - Reread this thread. No one was being unreasonable at all, we merely asked nicely for a picture. You immediately insulted us all and asked for the thread to be deleted. I'm not sure the community responded poorly to you, but rather you responded poorly to the community.
Personally, I am still anxious to see your pics. People will want to know about defects to look for in their phones as they start pouring in soon. I hope the thread stays open.

Said I would post when I got home. Kind of hard to take a picture of your phone with your phone. So yes you're a moron. Hope my punctuation is correct.
