Front Glass Issue

How to prevent lints & dust from getting behind the display?

Reading through numerous posts in Apple Discussions Support, I found this to be a very common issue. I never really payed any attention to it until one day while I was cleaning my screen with a micro-fiber cloth, I noticed a lint that was stuck behind the display and no matter how much I wipe, it won't go off. Currently, there are more lints and the situation seems to deteriorate with time

  • Monitor issue - dirt behind the front glass

    I use a pair of LP2475w Monitors for photography. The monitors both have gotten very dirty on the inside between the front glass and the LCP panel.  Is there an easy way to open this up to clean and if so how.  Thanks

    Dan, welcome to the forum.
    Here is what it states in the Manual for the monitors:
    Do not open the monitor cabinet or attempt to se
    rvice this product yourself. Adjust only those
    controls that are covered in the operating instru
    ctions. If the monitor is not operating properly or
    has been dropped or damaged, contact an author
    ized HP dealer, reseller,
    or service provider.
    You will find this warning on P.11 of the manual in the link that I provided.

    Hi! I live in colombia, the front glass of my iphone broke and i want to konw hoy can i get a new one

    I agree with Ralph to start with Verizon becuase you certainly don't have insurance with Apple. With Apple all you have is a warranty which will not cover broken glass. So you will be paying at Apple for sure,

  • Iphone 4s front glass screen smashed. Will apple replace for free if I have Apple Care?

    Iphone 4s front glass screen smashed. Will apple replace for free if I have Apple Care? Can I do it in any Apple Store? I bought it in EEUU

    Sorry no
    the iPhone can not be serviced anywhere other than the US
    The warranty is NOT international it is only valid in the country of purchase
    AppleCare + as explained is also NOT international it is only
    valid in the US
    This is why all responders recommend against buying in USA
    you are resident in another country
    Just for reference an iPhone purchased within the European Union
    can be serviced under warranty in any member EU state
    However that does not help you

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price
    A third-party place like maybe less. Google for one near you.
    Replace the screen yourself

    It has sources for the parts. You can just Google for screens too.

  • Lumia 1520.3 Front Camera Issue

    As Lumia Denim update is expected on the last quarter of the year, will it fix the front camera issue of the Lumia 1520?
    My phone is originally running on Lumia Black and the phone is working perfectly until i installed the dev prev. Regardless of what camera app, once front camera is called, app automatically close. Done soft reset, hard reset and Nokia Recovery Tool but to no avail, front camera is still useless.
    Hope the next iteration of the software will fix this problem.

    hi mate, sorry to hear of your problems. have u tried installing Lumia Cyan as this may fix your issues (i.e. has the correct optimisations and driver updates for your Nokia). i know it is a pain to hard reset and update manually to Lumia Cyan, but it may be the only option before taking your phone to Nokia Care for inspection

  • Is it dangerous to use i-mac without front glasses to reduce mirror effect ?

    Hi,
    Is it dangerous to use i-mac without front glasses to reduce mirror effect ?
    Can i get more specifics what the front glasses does that can be easy removed ?
    best regards
    Adian

    The only thing that might be "dangerious" is that it would be much easier to damage the exposed display.
    But if you insist, look at iFixit.com (for example, here).  Or just google "removing glass on imac" to find other techniques.

  • Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Front panel issues

    Hello there,
    I originally had the Creative Audigy 2 ZS Platinum and all was fine. It all worked and the world was happy. I then (won't go into details) managed to damage the card and whilst I still got sound, the front panel and the joystick port would not work. As it was only the card that was broken, I purchased a new Audigy 2 ZS card assuming I would be able to just stick the front panel connector back on and all would be hunky-dory.
    As you probably guessed, I am here, so all is not well. Whilst the game port now works, the front panel still does not respond to anything and I am at a loss. Is there some kind of jumper I need to switch or something? What have I done wrong.
    All input is more that welcome, thanks...

    i am having front panel issues. i think the damage to the card is a potential problem, but i don't think it's the cause for the panel not working. i think something is just seriously wrong with creative hardware. i really don't think pre-sales testing was performed extensi'vely enough. i have had more problems with my audigy 2 platinum in the 2.5 yrs i've had it than a new born baby. to make a long story short, i did a complete upgrade of my system, the only thing i kept was my case and audigy 2 and front dri've bay. i did nothing different than i had before, re-installed windows and everything. everything EXCEPT the front dri've bay works. i do get the red light from the optical out though, so there is power. i don't know what's wrong with this thing. all i can say is: creative you need to get your s**t together, you have as many issues with your sound blaster cards as microsoft has with windows. tech support: you need to do something for once and answer posts that people ask. i posted my question about this problem 7 months ago when it happened, guess how many repsonses i have. ZERO, NONE, NADA, NOT ONE RESPONSE. i don't blame forum users, not everyone knows, i blame tech support b/c you don't respond. i have no clue why, but do something, please.

    You'll have to get it serviced by Apple, you'll have to pay for the replacement device:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    You can also search for a 3rd party repair company in the Internet.

  • How much does apple charge to replace front glass/screen?

    So I have a cracked front glass. I am wondering how much Apple charges to replace it? I called the closet store and they said they cannot give prices over the phone that I would have to come in. Problem is, the store is 40 minutes away. There is a mall about 10 minutes away that charges $70 for front replacement.

    apple get you a new phone for 199$ they dont just fix screens. but warning going to any one else will void any warranty you have with apple
