Bubbles under the touchscreen - LG Optimus 4X HD

Today, I saw this under the touchscreen. It looks like some dust or air bubbles, which are under the touch area, situated directly above the Tegra 3 CPU so can it have something to do with the heat, which come from the cpu? The phone is 1 month old (bought 21/3/2013). I'm sending the phone to reclamation (and want new piece), but I'm afraid that this can happen again.
Have anyone same problem?

Corroded screen,

I had the same thing on a smaller scale, but it turned out it was just a bit of dirt that formed there...Took the phone apart and cleaned the glass. Everything is fine now!

What about the warranty?

I found also topic about this problem on german LG forum, the topic have about 85 pages!!
http://www.android-hilfe.de/lg-p880-optimus-4x-hd-forum/266155-staub-unter-dem-display.html

i have the same issue, but only one bubble, and it was there the day i bought it. i was too lazy to wait for a replacer, so i just stuck with mine, since it's only visible if you're really looking for it.

I don't think they would have noticed if I had been a bit more careful. They use Philips head screws and no "VOID" stickers.
I actually kinda scratched the glass on the inside

Wow thats sucks guys, if any has or is gonna send it in with an unlocked bootloader i wonder if they will fix it. If any of these manufacturers would honor their warranties for non-software related issues with unlocked bootloaders id stick with them regardless.

I have the same problem, I am do not have official support from LG in my country
Someone has a tutorial in order to clean/remove this bubbles?

I have this too and i think that help only dissasemble to clean this bubbles

Had these bubbles under my screen too. Got mine repaired, at a lg approved shop here in norway. My bootloader was already unlocked before i sent it in. It came back pre-rooted, and they changed the lcd if anyone wonders

So i shattered my screen on my phone and have been looking into buying a new digitizer but I have not been able to find any guides/videos for doing so. Has anyone had success repairing a cracked screen?
I read on a forum on a different site that someone was attempting to replace the screen but that when it came time to separate the screen from the bezel it got hairy.
Any help would be much appreciated. Using the original blackjack in the meantime and it is killing me!

Here's a video for motorola A855. Not the same but a good starting point. There's more videos to look thru. Read the comments as well, they should be helpful. One dude said he successfully did it with a phillips screwdriver without taking it all apart. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
Awesome thanks for the link. I will be ordering the screen within the next couple days and will post results.
If at all possible I will try to upload a youtube video of the process specific to the xt720.
I also broke the touch, as you have you got mounted?
you made the video ....?
know of a link somewhere manually?
hello thanks.

no I didn't make the video, I haven't even used this or broke my screen. Was just trying to help with an Idea. Let us know how it goes if you order one and maybe make your own video? or tutorial.

So what's the verdict? Did you order one?
unfortunately I have not had the chance to mess with it yet. I ordered it and its at my house, I am just trying to find the time to break everything down. I also made the mistake of buying a vibrant 4g before I fixed it so I have been even more preoccupied with that. I will try to post results this weekend. Sorry for the delay
Interesting. I want to get one of those. However in my case, its the glass part of the touchscreen thats broken i.e. all touch are still registered as if nothing is wrong. Do I need a digitizer or just a replacement glass lens.? Or is it just one big planel (glass lens + touch digitizer)?

Slight Design Change in RMA Nexus 4

I have one of the original N4's when they were released, yellow screen and defective charger. I got an RMA N4 and it looks like they added little nubs to the bottom. Just an FYI

What hardware revision? Boot in bootloader mode and give us the infoz!
It's nothing major. But the back plate can somewhat be more easier to remove.
And which country?

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Interesting touch, and very smart actually given how many people had their backs crack just from temperature variations on whatever surface they put their Nexus 4 down on. Hopefully that lifts the glass off any surface a bit. Flip side is that looks like it'd be a fitment problem for most cases on the market already.
It's not to cool down the glass, is to keep free the sound from the speaker that was getting blocked when you had the device on a flat surface.

They probably have a whole variety of reasons. IMO raising the speaker off flat surfaces would be a perfectly good reason because it's completely muffled when you put the phone down on its back. They wouldn't change the hardware just for that, but it'd certainly help.

Torx screw you mean.
And going back on topic, if the phone is flat on the table the gap could increase air flow for better cooling and increase the volume too.
Its REV 11, Production date 02/2013 made in Korea. i'm in the US and It still fits perfectly fine in the LG Bumper. The photo is little confusing it was taken with my original N4 with a macro lens. the hole is the torx screw on the bottom.
Awesome! I ordered an RMA last night, should be receiving it sometime this week.
My Nexus 4 died on me Sunday night. Red light of death
Watch as dozens of people cry about their phones not having this, and then come up with excuses why they need to rma their device.

Bro that looks bad
Don't worry flash back stock Rom and stock kernel and you can get it fixed in warranty after flashing stock kernel the Red thingy on Htc splash screen gets vanished ...Cause after Rooting warranty voids
from what i've heard mechanical damage isn't covered by the warranty as it is your fault.
i could be wrong so you should try it.
or you can go to a service to install a new screen. a new screen+digitizer costs about 19 euros (in my country) dont know how much the replacement itself costs

19 euros??!! that is cheap! i expected it to be something like 80 euros!
i don't need a brand new LCD because it is still fine i took my old desire c apart once and the LCD and digitizer weren't together! (it does suck i didn't keep that one :\)
I checked amazon, parts4cheap and other services they all sell if for a price of 12.49$ i didn't know the touch screen was this cheap!
Edit: the touch screen still fully works so I can keep using my phone till I decide to buy a new screen

is there something over the touch screen? what do you mean exactly by plastic screen over the touchscreen?
what i meant is i cannot find the front panel only ,just a bundle with the digitizer. not sure where i saw just the front panel of a phone, maybe i've made a mistake

Dark mark beside nfc logo

Hi all,
I just noticed a dark mark behind the phone right beside the NFC logo and it's quite obvious from certain angles.
I don't use the phone extensively - messaging, twitter, instagram, non graphic intensive games.
Anyone know what caused the mark? I suspect its the processor or graphic chip.
Do you think it's a valid reason to head down to the repair centre and is it covered under warranty?
Thanks.

Looks like you have a screen protector... maybe it's that?
There's a blue z1???
It's more obvious in the 2nd and 3rd photos.
It's a dark square right beside the nfc logo and it's quite difficult to show with a camera
I'm posting to see if I am the other one or if there's others like me too.
I have a white Z1 and I can't see anything below or around the nfc icon
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I have a white one also and I can see a sort of "halo" around the NFC from certain angles with certain lights, but nothing worth saying!
EDIT: Now I see, looks like it's about 1"x1" darker spot on the left? Seems rather weird indeed, do you have a protector on this side? You can look at a disassembly video to see if it's close to a processor... Surely is weird!
I can see the square from your pictures and I can say this, back cover is in glass and there is not way that any chip or whatever can do such a thing. Only 2 things can be, 1- the paint of the back cover (which I suppose is not on the glass but is under), 2-Back Plastic protector. I will suggest to take off first the plastic back protector and check if the square still there.
Hi all,
Thanks for your help.
I removed the protector but the mark is still there, so it's on the phone itself.
I'm thinking if the mark got to do with the chip heating up the paint or back panel thus causing the dark mark?

This protector behind is in case you break the glass to not hurt you...and i think it's impossible to heat sufficiently to make a dark mark like that.

It's your Z1 come out from box with the back protector? Because far as I know they don't...and mine didn't have it.

The glass has a sticker protector, all Z1 have it in both side.
If you watch this YouTube clip. There is actually a square heatshield for a chip in that region behind the back cover. Maybe that would cause it. I don't know if my eyes tricked me but it looked like his back cover also had that square.

My Nexus 5 is warped!

So I just noticed with my phone on a flat table...my phone is warped, like two diagonal corners touch the table and the opposite diagonal corners are raised. I tried it on multiple level tables and even looking at it by my eyeballs without the case on it looks warped like a piece of hot metal!
I don't know how or when it happened...the screen isn't cracked or anything, nothing looks or acts strange even.
Check you phone...is it warped?
Are you sure it's not the camera?

I'm not sure I understand....laying it flat on the table, screen side down, the entire physical phone itself is warped
Placed my facing downwards, and there's no warping. Have you been leaving your phone exposed to the sun maybe?
That sucks to hear. I just tried it with mines and its perfectly flat.

MIne's the same way, noticed it when I first got it and put a case on it. Nothing wrong with it otherwise and I've since forgotten about it so not sure why people are saying they're sorry.
Could it be that your table is warped and not the phone?
