[Need advise] tiny lint under glass

I just received my second mytouch 4g. But with my uber luck, it has a tiny little lint under glass straight out of the box.
Does it mean that other lints can get Tere? If so, will HTC repair it under warranty?
This time I got a good screen, a good chip, and a camera in the middle of its space. I do not want to gamble again and willing to keep it.
The lint is barely noticeable,would you suggest me try exchange again?

Take it apart and clean it. Great things involve great risk... Just do it

Im afraid after that there would be dozens of lints more.
I probably will call htc and mail it for waranty repair. Do they have there a clean room for that?

My phone took a massive hit and now it keeps turning off :-(

This one had never been dropped. Tonight I was pulling it out of my pocket when some douchebag bumped me and it flew across the bar. Amazed the screen didn't crack but it broke my heart.
Time for yet another exchange...

Does anyone know if a last.kmsg will reveal anything interesting? I know it's a hardware problem but maybe it could tell me where?

Bet the battery is missing contact with the points... Try a folded piece of paper between the battery and the cover.
Edited cause I suck at Swype!

Paper under battery door solved the problem.

Removable back piece?

Does anyone have any idea where the top part of the back plate is removable? Seems a little weird as there isn't anything under it.
My only thoughts are that it could be a place to store the SIM if they bring out a 3G version, or its for some sort of official case which would clip into this

its for the case to attach on dude

I don't think you can change the front casing without the screen since it's one piece like you said. You might be able to sperate them with some prying but it probably won't seat very well when installed again and plus you'll have to buy a screen with the front casing because I really doubt anyone sells them sperate.

No I found a website that sells it with the screen or just the front because I don't wanna spend 200$ just for casing but thank you

Lol I'm only going to attempt it when my phone cracks even though the screen is $200!!!

Can anyone tell me what these are?

The two brass contact points just to the bottom-left of the battery. It's a Samsung galaxy S3 sgh-I747 (AT&T)
I haven't put my multimeter on them yet, but willing to bet they are charging ports.if so I'm going to try to make a docking station for it.
Thanks in advance.

Does the s3 have nfc capability? Those look quite a lot like the connections to the backing where the nfc is actually mounted.

Yes it does have nfc built in. But this hardly looks like an antenna to me.

The antenna would be on the back cover, those are just the connections between the phone hardware and the antenna on the back.

That would make sense, except that the back cover of the S3 is just plain flimsy plastic.

^ is right. That's for WiQiQi Wireless Charger Kit, there's a video.
