Ah crap. Black dots under screen.

Didn't notice it until I turned up the brightness (I just bragged about having a flawless device less than a minute ago) and I noticed dark spots in the screen.
I'm going to call them up and see what they say. Sucks. It doesn't look like much, but it's very obvious when scrolling since it doesn't move with the rest of the screen. Only the circled area is affected. It looks like a dead pixel at first, but it's much bigger and has a "blur" around it.

Pics?

None here....

I'm on hold waiting for them to answer, I'll post a pic of it in a few minutes. It's right in the middle of the screen too.

added pic. It's much bigger than the picture lets on, and has a liquid looking blur around it.

No black dots on mine. 16GB received today. Strangely enough, mine had no plastic covering on the bezel, while my friend's 8GB model did (4 small strips, one for each side).

Mine didn't have them either. I was wondering about that when I opened it.
I've been on hold for 30 minutes already.

Got the RMA, I get to keep my phone until the new one arrives, so I am happy. Turnaround should be less than a week to receive the replacement. I wonder if it's going to be backordered...lol

Through Google directly. They are handling the devices themselves for the time being. Not like with the SGN and Nexus 7 devices, where you had to go through Samsung or Asus directly.

Google is probably handling RMA's for now, but later on it will be handed over to LG With crappy support, and they will ask you to pay shipping.

I thought RMA's for Nexus devices were always done by Google?

My 16 gig had plastic strips all around the sides and top of the phone.

The RMA process with Google is very good. I had to send two Nexus 7s back and it was an easy process. The only issue I had was that I didn't receive a TNT shipping label with my first replacement so I actually had 3 devices for 2 days while I waited for the shipping label.

Damn. I got the shipping labels before I even hung up. He said it would take up to a day, and it had me slightly worried...lol At least I have a phone I can beat the hell up with no regrets. Only thing that sucks is that I need to leave the phone stock for now.

Exact opposite
You need to return it in "good" condition (scratches are fine, but no cracks). Software wise, mess with it all you want, then
Code:
fastboot -w update "Devices Image from Google"
fastboot oem lock

I don't mean to be an ass but Google better get all those backordered phones out to us before sending out your (or anyone else's) RMA'd phones.

What about the much bigger blurry spot to the right of your circle? Closer to the right edge of the picture. That looks considerably worse to me.

Hope the dude with the spots who said he didn't notice until he turned the brightness up tried cleaning his screen...

Just got a refurbished HTC One. Everything is great but...

I just noticed I can see PM up on the top right side of the screen and some notifications in the top left corner during full screen apps, especially with a full grey screen. I didn't see those a couple hours ago when I got it.
Did I seriously just burn in my screen already? Is this normal for a "new" One? Or should I be freaking out?
I did nothing out of the ordinary since I got it. Just rooted it, restored apps, put it on the charger for a bit. That's all.

I see 127 views and no replies. No one wants to touch this one lol! I'm taking it back to Sprint in the morning. I shouldn't be getting burn in less than 24 hours into using any phone, refurbished or not.

Yea,i agree,take it back and make them replace it,it should last longer than 24 hours,wether you flash it or not,im upgrading to this from the EVO 4G,in 2 months,but it will be a new one,hahaha,i just cant wait,so i can start to dev for the One now and maybe port over my 4 kornerz rom.

I would take it back as well.
Also, pay attention to the screen. In my One, the speakers busted (same as my OG Evo, Evo 3D and Hero. Htc makes ****ty speakers) I also have a dead pixel so I filed an insurance claim. Today I received the new One and the display is garbage. The whites look dingy and yellow like a cheaper version. It doesn't compare at all to my current One.
I'm gonna send it back and try my luck again =\

Nope. You're lucky then because HTC speakers are cheap and it isn't just me who says so. Here is a quick google search but you can dig deeper and see for yourself. I never really cared because replacing the speaker was easy...but with the HTC One it is a repair nightmare.

I'll halfway attempt to break it down, but I doubt you'll understand.
There are people who break down how difficult it would be for the average consumer to do things such as repairs for these phones (hint:ifixit). The average consumer isn't gonna own all the tools/equipment or possess the knowledge/skill as a professional. This is true in probably everything you'll ever get repaired, otherwise mechanics have been ripping people off for years.
This phone scores as low as possible when it comes to repairs. It doesn't mean that professionals can't repair it. Ifixit isn't gonna breakdown how easy it is for HTC or other phone repair people, why the *@*! would anyone care about that? They are breaking it down for the not so skilled.

I got my phone replaced once already as well, but Sprint said they DO NOT use refurbished phones as replacements until the phone has been released for 6 months.
But what was odd is that my replacement phone didn't come with a box, so I dialed ##786# and checked the "reconditioned status" which stated "none." I wonder if this replacement is not a refurb, then why did it come with no box?

Sprint doesn't handle it, Asurion does. They'll tell you it could be new or refurbished. It all depends on what they have. Both of mine came with a box, but that doesn't mean they're new.
I'm about to send ny second replacement back. The screen is just too yellow and dingy looking. It's a damn shame I have to file an insurance claim and pay a deductible on a month old phone.

To update, my 2nd refurb seemed nice enough. But after having it a couple days, I've noticed the screen colors are pretty blown out and definitely not like it should be. Colors are as funky as they can be, and the screen itself is way too bright. And for insult to injury, the phone is unable to connect to 4G LTE. So back to Sprint I go!

ouch my nexus7 it slid off my bed apparently. I didnt see how it fell, it was in a case but it didnt save it. I heard the thud, turned and feared the worse. it goes across the screen so its rather large.
its the 2012 32 gb version. Is it fixable??? most of the screen doesnt work, i can touch the notification area and it responds, but no where else, so it is basically inoperable. I google some stuff about replacing the digitizer or the screen? or both? how would i know what I need?
on another note, its the 2012 version and i could probably use an upgrade on the 2014 or whatever the new one is. But i definitely would like to repair this and get a new one. I hate having to let go of stuff like this and would like to repair it.

Check out on ebay you have to change the glass, digitizer and lcd (too risky to change the glass+digitizer) its fairly easy. You can check outr some teardown on google too and youtube. Good luck

hmm thats a nice idea, i might find something like that locally here. well I ended up going on craigslist and looking at local ads of nexus 7, and I saw someone selling a nexus 7 16gb for $100. I emailed and asked if it was still available and how firm they were. They replied saying they can let it go for 80 if I come right now. I just returned about an hour ago with a 16gb nexus 7. I am currently in the process of rooting with a rom as my 32gb was. I still wanna fix my 32gb so I will try this idea or something similar.

Its fraud because it was suggested above that insurance gets placed on the device AFTER there has been damage to the device. It was suggested that the insurance company wouldn't verify the condition...it's exactly what it sounds like...fraud.

And if I buy at a store, it has to be the same type store, meaning if I bought at a corporate store, I have to go another corporate store.
UPDATE: Ok they had to reorder me a new phone (black). It wasn't out of stock so they are going to ship it to me overnight at no charge and will get it on Wednesday. As usual, they are charging me for the new one and will refund the charges on the 1st phone when they receive it back.

Getting Nexus 6 Screen replaced....

Is there anyone on here that can replace just the screen on the Nexus 6 for less than $100 ? I lost my job a few weeks ago and I am looking for new employment, and to top that off I dropped my Nexus 6 and I saw someone else post about this as well, but I am looking to pay someone to do this that has successfully replaced the screen on a N6 before. Will attach pictures later if requested.

The screen is worth $175 by itself, sorry man. If you can get together the money you can contact Motorola and pay them the $175 ot get it sorted though.

that is definetly bad news. just use a non nexus phone for the meantime. use ur money to find employment first. so after getting a new job everything will be worth it

I have worked with the software side in Android for a long time, but doing hardware for me has always been a bit tricky. Don't I need specialised tools to remove the screen and and stuff ? I used to work a mobile repair shop and I used to flash phones from one carrier to another using CDMA workshop and we had a guy that acually repaired the phones and he seemed to have magnifying glass to see the little chips of glass in the screen, and different tools to remove the screen. I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, but it seems risky considering I don't have dummy phones to test it on first, and if I open that phone up and mess it up more, wouldn't Motorola refuse to replace the device for $175 ?

This is what I have been doing. I went to best buy and got a LG Transpyer and it sucks bad compared to my nexus 6. At the moment it will have to do until I get that phone fixed. I also have a LG G2 and that phones screen is cracked too.

that is definetly bad news. just use a non nexus phone for the meantime. use ur money to find employment first. so after getting a new job everything will be worth it

Does anyone have a LG Nexus 5 they would like to get rid of that I could buy ? That would definitely be better than this. I have less than 100 at the moment, but I would definitely buy it.
