XDA takes a Swimming lesson - Watermarked screen

Hey everyone.
First i would like to say thanks for all your help over the last 6 months of my owning an XDA and lurking here.
yesterday i nearly cried. i actualy realise how much i have used my blue angel.
i was at work and it went for a swimming lesson. did the usual battery out and drying out with a hair drier. so the unit now starts up. however the screen is very watermarked and the touch screen appears to be effected.
Has anyone had any luck cleaning it up. or should i give up now and order a new one. I NEEEEEEEEED my XDA! i am a techno adict, sad i know but that PPC orginised my life! hehehehehehe
Thank you
Kim Watson
mate
if the unit is still functioning well and the ONLY problem you see is the watermark; you can opt to have only the screen/lcd changed. that's IF it's the only problem with the unit. charging? on/off? microphone? syncing?
cheers
ps: and in the end did your unit learn the backstroke?
not sure how much help its gonna be, but mine got wet and the touch screen seemed to shift its alignment a bit towards the bottom, a real pain in the arse using the keyboard. after about 2 weeks it sorted its self out.
For the water damage i believe you'd need to change the LCD panel, that in its self can cost a fair amount of money so it might be an idea to check if ur home insurance covers you, just dont what ever you do tell them its a phone!! only call it a PDA unless they ask for a spacific name, and even then dont say O2 makes it or who ever ur operator is, cuz they wont cover you otherwise!
thanks guys.
well priceing its gonna be cheeper to buy a new handset than a new LCD.
the main mother board didnt actualy get wet. the keyboard and the back of the LCD were the worst hit. thanks to the whole split screan thing. i think had this been the xda2 it may have survived.
the only question now is do i go in search of another blue angle... or do i bite the bullet and get the 2i. better camera definatly an attraction but the blueangel keyboard is fantastic if your using instant msn. ether way i have to wait till the middle of june because o2 wont let me have another one without paying full price even though my upgrade is a month away.
i love my XDA.....

[Q] Screen is grey/pink

Hi guys
I hope everyone is well
A week or 2 ago i noticed a pink line down the right hand side of my screen
ALso the bottom of the screen was slightly pink although i could see the text.
Gradually over the last couple of weeks the pink at the bottom of the screen has nearly filled the whole screen. The bottom of the screen is now turning from pink to grey.
Obviously i believe this to be a screen/LED problem
I have looked on ebay and found screens with digitizers but I am not sure if this will do the job or it needs another part with it
can someone please point me in the right direction...preferably with links
thanks in advance

Hi mate, I recently changed the screen and digitizer on my phone. If it's just the screen thats broken then you only need a screen, however you need to be VERY careful when taking out the screen from the digitizer, as if you break the connector to the digitizer then you will need to buy a new one too! Search youtube for "bravo disassembly procedure" or something along those lines, it's the official htc video.
It's actually pretty straightforward to do, and you don't need to treat it as gently as nitro glycerine either, as long as you don't use too much excess force.
Thanks
Hi mate
thanks for the reply
I have seen those videos around and got one in my favourites already
By the sound of my problem do you think i will just need a screen and digitizer or will i need more

The whole screen is like a bluey colour,.,,..cannot see anything at all

Hi guys
Anyone managed to have a look at this?
anyone
sorry to post again
anyone able to comment on this? please
Hey sorry mate.. Hmm if it wasn't the screen then it must be something else... I don't want to tell you what it is for you to aimlessly keep buying stuff, because it's just not worth it. If it wasn't the screen then it could be so many other things.

Firstly, its always unsafe to unscrew the hardwares, secondly, the warranty will be void as well. Thirdly, it mostly wont help.
Suggestion, remove battery, open cover and power openings. Keep it together with enclosed Rice(uncooked of course) or silica gel. For a few days, and it will be dried up. Works like a charm.

Yes, it might help if you open the phone but you have to be a PRO
Opening the phone could be real problem if you messed up just a tiny bit. Try asking a mobile fixer to open it and clean it for you, i don't mean to hurt you or anything but if you don't know what happens after opening it i don't think you should open it, especially when the camera is involved
Ok thank you two for quick reply

Bro, I think you must replace your handset. It must be a defected one.

:/ yes me too i think so..cause there is a gap between the metal frame and the screen and thats where dusts is getting in.. thanks bro
Isn't the digitiser fused to the screen to prevnt dust getting underneath? Wouldn't want to go back in time and get dust inside like the Desire and Sensation I had! Certainly never a spec got under my M7.

Moto Z2 Screen Scratches

Hi
New to this site but read an article you guys wrote on the new Z2 having issues with the front screen scratching easily. I purchased the phone 2 weeks ago and am enjoying it. But have noticed several scratches on the front screen. I am bit anal when it comes to protecting my screens on all my phones so this issue has me worried. All have done was put the phone in and of my pocket and there is definitely seems to be a problem.
I called Motorola and they agreed there was a problem with the screens and sent me a link for replacement. When I clicked on the link they wanted $29.99 to replace. The phone is only 2 weeks old and so far everything is great about it, I even purchased a few mods. But what good is a phone with amazing graphics when your screen is covered in scratches.
Any one having same issues ? Any advice on how to remove the scratches so I can put a stronger screen protctor ?
Thanks

What is the link for the screen? I too have little fine scratches on my screen of my Moto Z2 Force of course due to the type of material it is made of. I just want to replace it and put a screen protector on and should be good to go. Scratches are the only complaint I have about my Z2 Force to look on the positive side. I am more than happy with it and I had no idea when I bought it that they would have mods for this phone ! So what a fantastic surprise..
Scratches here are not a problem. Here all ok with the screen, just crackle by pushing the screen and battery just 2677mAh after few months. The battery is dead before anything going wrong with the screen, right? But great device. No screen protector needed here, no scratches.
