I have a vertical gouge from either my fingertip or the stylus right up the center of my screen, occurred during the three day gap between arrival of my Freerunner and arrival of my screen protectors, dragging the Openmoko logo around the damned unlock the screen. (while it looked neat, that has to be the most irritating 'unlock' procedure I've ever had to endure - over, and over, and over, and over....) Is there any reasonable way for me to replace/repair the touchscreen at this time? Is there a simple fix I'm unaware of that would make it less than a visible gash in the display? The touchscreen does not appear to be functionally impaired at all, it's cosmetic. (although without the screen protector it's deep enough that stylus drags diagonally across it can get 'stuck in the groove') But it's like having 8 stuck pixels right in the middle of the screen - while my brain can map around it, it's always visible, always irritating. j _______________________________________________ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support _______________________________________________ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
