ASUS replaced my screen because of light leaks - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know several people have been complaining that their N7s had light leak issues. Mine had leaking around the edges and a circular leak in the top right of the screen which was noticeable when I put my tablet down on a desk and used it at a 90 >= angle. I contacted ASUS and sent my N7 back, not only did they swap out my LCD but also gave me a brand new battery too!
I suppose the only money I'm out now is the money I spent on the screen protector that was on the unit when I sent it in (I'm assuming that by replacing the LCD, that the LCD is directly attached to the outer plastic of the screen, which includes the surface the screen protector was on).

Cool story, bro.
How do you know they replaced the battery?

The steel plate is on the bottom right and im missing a screw! Should i send it back?

[Q] Desire Z / G2 Digitizer issue / replacemen

Ok, I had a search and I can't see anything quite the same as what I have going on, if there is I apologise and please point me at it?
Anyway I have an HTC Desire Z, I dropped it and smashed the digitizer. Everything still worked perfectly but I eventually got sick of reading through smashed glass (luckily screen protector meant I didn't cut the tips of my fingers off lol)
So, I order a replacement digitizer, slowly and carefully fit it (following a couple of guides on youtube etc. Everything is safely back together however now when the phone turns on all I get is a rainbow coloured stripe going up the left hand side of the screen. I pulled it all apart again assuming it was a lose/bad connection put it all back together even more diligently.. same thing.
Figured it was faulty so the seller (generously) sent out a replacement unit... problem is I am still having the same issue... any idea what I have done wrong/is the LCD now buggered too? I am so confused as all worked perfect until I "fixed" it
Looks like this now (ignore the bubbles that is just the cover that comes on the new digitizer unit:

any and all help is appreciated.
I am having the same issue...and I believe it to be a poorly connected and or broken ribbon cable. I am however not 100% on that.

That black circle on the screen indicates that the lcd is damaged. I has a similar problem. I replaced the lcd and everything was running again.

Dropped my 1 month old nexus 4, bezel dented :(

Is there any way to repair it? I dropped it from a ~1.5ft. edge and it already has a dent. The dent is on the bezel, and is seen easily if you bend the phone. Pic:

You can put a bumper on it .. it will hide the dent. Other than that, only a new bezel will help you.

Gosh, can I not just open the back part of the phone, and be able to hit the dented part from inside?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
that would void warranty,
you could try open it to push it back with a round metal object, if the phone is fine, either open it or hide it with a case
You're lucky you didn't crack the screen. You would of needed a complete LCD replacement. I would slap a case on it and call it a day.

It is a plastic bezel, so that would not do any good at all.
Like other people have said, it sure does not look as sleek as a naked n4, but just put a case on your phone

[Q] LG G2 D802 [Issue] Screen loose at bottom right

Hello
- Advice requested
I have had my G2 D802 bought in Europe, Sweden, for a couple of months now and right from the start I have been taking care of it;
Back and front screen protector applied (thin plastic one, great acctually)...
Now, in the end of January 2014, I yesterday noticed a thin ray of light coming from "inside" the screen and shining out between the touch sensitive display and the edges (bezel?) of the device.

These images are all focused on the thin light escaping from the side of the display.
It is a opening as thin as a single piece of hair.
- What would you recommend?
Please leave a comment or just vote in the embedded poll at the top.
The images are grainy, yes, but all show the light comming out.
Return, replace

Well, I flashed stock and got a service ticket for a warranty repair.
It took 35 minutes for them to give my device a new screen.
All is good. I'm happy.

Same has happened with mine a few months after purchase! Mine is a Carrier device so i think they will replace it ok. I hope this isn't an ongoing things with G2's!
Same here. Same place
Same here, can I glue it with an easy method?
Without disassembling the whole phone.

Bubble under glass

I got my note 4 day after launch and yesterday morning a bubble showed up under the glass on the left top corner of the screen At first I though it was the screen protector that had a bubble underneath but after taking the screen protector off it is actually under the glass. The bubble is about half inch long by 1/8th inch wide or so. I couldn't find any info on anyone else with this problem. I went to Tmobile and they sent a replacement phone out right away. Anyway just seeing if anyone else has had this problem. There is no damage to the glass or screen just a bubble under the glass. XDA wont let me post photos in my posts yet so once I'm over 10 posts i'll put some pictures of it up.
Looks like glue wasn't cured right. Were you able to "push" bubble out by pressing on screen or is more like cured glue separated from glass?

Pressing on it doesn't make the bubble go away or change shape in any way.
be good if some way we can see a picture.

There it finally allowed me to post photos.
yeah that's a strange one! Only thing I can think of is that it was there when you first bought it, but it was too small for you take notice until it got bigger!
Exchange!
This is the adhesive that fuses the LCD panel to the glass digitizer separating. Definitely a factory defect and definitely get it exchanged. This should not be happening.
Mine is separating in the same spot. Can only see it when the light it on it just right, hasn't gotten as bad as yours yet

Camera edge spot

I just opened and setup my V20, I was super careful with it. I only had it rest on something soft while I was getting the sim activated and until I put the case on. Well, it seems to be something like a shiny spot on the camera rim. At first I thought it was a reflection, but is a blemish. I am torn, should I take it back (BestBuy) or live with it. It sucks to have that out of the box.
Here is a pic:

It is to the outer side of that on the chrome rim. I cannot feel the spot nor clean it away.
looking athe photo, it seems like the outer rim, and not the protector.
Anyway I got it replaced so all is good.
I need to take you along with me next time I buy a new truck!!
