I finally took my device to the Apple Store today. Due to having dust beneath the screen, as well as the crack, it meant they replaced the whole unit, rather than just the screen, which they would have done in the event of just dust.
If anyone else has any issues, I'd highly recommend taking it to a Genius Bar. The staff were so helpful, and no questions were asked really.
Well done Apple

Iphone 5 has dust under the actual screen.

I'm pretty upset that i found a tiny speck of dust under the screen. I'm pretty sure it's not a dead pixel cause it rainbows. I can't really notice it because i have an anti glare screen protector built in. Should i return it? Is this a bad sign? Can things get worse? Is this normal? I really don't want to because i don't wanna get a refurbished nor is it noticeable unless i start looking for it.

Should I return it?
I would
Is this a bad sign?
Does it sound like a good sign to you?
Can things get worse?
You can always wait and find out
Is this normal?
Does it seem normal to you? Probablyh not.

MTS and Beeline provide all service for the iPhone in Russia. Take your phone to them and see. They will have to evaluate it.

IPhone - Dust under the screen; Anyone else?

After just a few hours in my pocket, I have my first speck of dust under the screen. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
After some inspection, I noticed there is a very small gap between the metal case and the headphone jack which is especially visible when the backlight is on (I can see light from the backlight).

Hey Luc Lux,
Do you have a screen protector on the iPhone? If you do try removing it and cleaning the screen.
If there isn't anything covering the screen, make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it or call AppleCare.

Dust Under the Screen and Case Cracks

Hey guys,
I am the proud owner of an iPhone 3G S, and love the thing to pieces. I've had it for 8 months now, however over the past few weeks, I have become slightly disappointed with it.
Firstly, a small crack appeared above the 'Silent On/Off' switch, which I don't understand how it appeared as the phone has never been dropped or bumped. It's only very tiny, but I'm a perfectionist and not particularly happy about the fact it has appeared by itself. I treat my phone like royalty.
Then today, I realised a tiny white fleck on the screen when running an app. At first, I thought it might have been a dead pixel, but it turns out that it's a fleck of dust under the screen. How did it get there?! And it's not the only fleck either. When I turned the screen off, there appears to be at least 3 or 4 tiny flecks. They aren't obtrusive to the screen, but annoy me as, like I said before, I'm a perfectionist.
Am I still within warranty at 8 months? And if I am, would Apple replace my iPhone if I was to return it? It was purchased from O2, so would I return it to them, or Apple directly?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Dust under the screen....

Does anyone know if you can have apple remove the dust under the screen if you are under warranty? Like will they service the iphone for that? And if they do, do you know if they will completely replace the iphone, or will they just remove the screen and fix it?
Thanks

Roaminggnome is right, it's a case by case basis, but as long as you have not abused the phone, it's more than likely you can get a replacement, but don't quote me on that. They will replace the phone if they decide to--they don't do cosmetic work. So, what I'm saying simply is--maybe, maybe not--make an appointment with a Genius at an Apple Store to see. If they will, they'll give you another iPhone.

Did any buy a 4th generation iPad with speck(s) of dust under the screen?

Purchased my first iPad at a local apple store on launch day, noticed a speck of dust under the screen. Had it exchanged and then found another speck of dust under the screen once again. Went back and wanted another exchange, apple store employees were nice enough to allow me to open two additional iPad. I did a thorough check of each and noticed dust under the screen on both. Wasn't allowed to open anymore iPads so, I was given the option to exchange mine or return it. I decided to keep mine as there was only one speck of dust under the screen. Has this happened to anyone so far?

I wanted to upgrade to the iPad 4th generation as well. I have been through four (4) of them. ALL FOUR (4) had readily visible dust under the glass. Three were from the Apple store here in Santa Barbara, and one was from the Apple store in Santa Monica.....so not all from the exact same shipment, although possible all came from the same batch at the factory.
There is fine white dust all offer the interior packaging materials when you open these up....which is not a problem....but then there is always a speck or two of white dust UNDER the glass. This is totally unacceptable for a high-end product that costs $700+ from accompany that goes on and on about how exceptionally high their quality control standards are.
The Apple store staff have been fantastic to deal with throughout this. It is proof Apple stands behind their products and claims of high quality. However, the fact that four out of four brand new iPads had the same defect (immediately seen by two techs at the Apple Store in every case) indicates the standards are sliding...at least at the factory.
The fact that I received four out of four iPads with this defect doesn't mean I am unlucky....it likely indicates that thousands of these shipped to North America...or at least California....have this defect. I just noticed it.
And anyone who says "that's just how all iPads are" is wrong. I am typing this post on my iPad Generation 3 that came out of the box with no dust under the glass.
This is a major quality control issue with the new iPad 4 and Apple needs to address it.

hello,
I bought 3 weeks ago a BlackBerry Curve 9320 but there is dust that has gottenunder in the screen, there is more and more with time and it bothers me. My phone did not fall and I find thatit is abnormal that dust gets under the screen if the telephne have not suffered from shock.
I am looking for a repair solution.
Thank you for your help
cordially
Chloé Halot

Même problème sous l'écran de mon 9320 (coté gauche, prise USB). C'est très énervant surtout qu'il n'y a pas eu de choc et qu'il y a de plus en plus de poussière qui s'accumule. Y a-t-il une solution que l'on peut faire sois même, ou peut-on faire jouer la garantie constructeur ?
Merci de votre réponse
Same problem on my 9320 Blackberry Device (left side, USB plug). It's very annoying, moreover there were no bump that could cause the problem, and there are more and more dust under the screen. Is there anything I can do ? Or can I send it to repairment ?
Thank you for answering

Can I get my iPad cleaned from dust under the screen at the Apple Store?

I have an iPad that I have purchased early last year. My warranty on the iPad is up and I have realized there is dust under the screen. There is a newly built Apple Store at a mall in my city. I am wondering if I could visit the store and request a technician to open my iPad and clean the screen, if it's possible they can do that. If I can, will there be a fee? If not, what other things can I do?

No, they will not be able to clean it at the store. They will likely only be able to offer a replacement at a substantial cost (if that). Based on what you have described, unless you are far wealthier than me, you get to live with it.

Dust under the screen of my BB Curve 9360

I have dust under the screen and it's pretty noticeable. I have no idea how it got there, only about 1-2 months I've had this phone. What can I do?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Unless you're willing to break your warranty, you can disassemble the casing for your berry and clean out the underside of the screen.
YOu can also try taking it to where you got the berry and ask them to clean it for you so that you won't be breaking the warranty.
Do you put your Blackberry in a dusty environment?
You should invest in a pouch or a holster to protect your BB from dust.

Will I get a replacement for dust under the screen?...

Hey everyone!
I've had an iPhone since the 3G came out and I've never had any problems with dust. My 3G got replaced by 02 insurance about 5 months ago and I got a new 3GS 16GB. Since then I noticed the odd little bit of dust appearing under the screen. Most of the time I couldn't see it so I didn't really care but now I've noticed a few larger pieces and they're really annoying.
I understand that I should get a 12 month warranty with this and surely it's not meant to happen so I'd expect a replacement. I've searched around and I seem to get mixed answers. The problem is that I'm currently working in Cologne and there are only 3 Apple Stores in Germany (I can't believe it!) and the nearest one is still over 100 miles away.
What do you recommend? Would Apple do anything like post one (I doubt it?) or am I going to just have to wait until I'm near Frankfurt (or even back in London) and book an appointment there. Even then... what are my chances of getting a replacement?
Thanks in advance everyone! Much appreciated

I doubt they will give you a replacement. I know here in the States you can take your iphone to an Apple store and they can replace the screen and charge you $200 for that. But I find it hard to believe they would replace the screen for free just because there are dust particles under the glass. That's just my opinion.

Nokia 6710 Navigator - Dust under the screen

My new phone bought on 30 Sept 2009 (barely 2.5 months)... and I had used it for about 1 month (the phone has gone back to Nokia Care center twice before... and the 2nd time was away for 2.5 weeks)....
This time, I noticed dust build up under the screen... so there is no way for me to clean it.. what should I do?

Unfortunately you cannot remove the casing yourself without invalidating your warranty. Best bet would be to send it back to the Nokia Care Point and tell them they left the dust in it after the last repair.

X6 dust under the screen

is that normal to get a bit of dust under the glass screen in nokia x6?

Hi
It depends the way u use the phone.
if u use always witha protected case, and take the device out when ever necessary only these type of happenings will get minimised.
if u use without cover and always exposed, this type of things will happen frequently.
so this is not a problem of the X6 device.
however u can take it to "nokia care" and get the dust removed by them.
but remember, when u dismantle X6 always the bottom and top panels has to be replaced. once removed the same cannot be refixed.
so u may have to bear the cost .
cheers

Dust Under The Screen Unsol

Ive done some reading no one as found a solotion to removing dust from under the screen i am starting this up again becuase many ppl havent found there answer please help me and other anyone got answers?

Either blow it out, suck it out, or void your warranty and disassemble your player to physically wipe it away. A can of compressed would probably just inject moisture under your screen, while sucking it out I would guess is next to impossible, but maybe worth a try. If you have a narrow nozzle attachment for your vacuum, carefully place it on one side of the screen along the blue glowing edge. Other than that, your options are rather limited.
