I accidentally spilled a small drop of alcohol at the barcode near the indicator when I was cleaning the camera lens with it, and the indicator soaked a little bit and have turned red around the corner of the sticker. Is the warranty void?
Yes

Yep you're SOL with that.
It doesn't matter, warranty still void.

Not sure when I was with sprint and had an evo my indicator was red but the tech said since he broke down the phone and saw no signs of water damage I'm good and they sent me a new phone. Now that could just be good luck but never know

Where are the water damage indicators on the Infuse?

This is just me taking a guess, but they're usually in the headphone jack. I could be way off though on the Infuse, haha.

Take the back cover off and you will see a small circular hole to the right of your SIM card. This should be white if it hasn't had any water damage. It will turn red if it does have water damage.
They have some internally too... the most obvious one is the white circle in the back of the phone above the battery. Talking about battery the batterys usually have the sticker too.

Feels spongy and I can see it move. Only about 1cm from the bottom.
Will HTC cover this under warranty or will I have to swap it our with AT&T?
It wouldn't surprise me if warranty covers it.

This is a known problem with the phone. HTC will cover it.
I have had mine less then 5 months and its starting to pop up in the corner with the search button. Should I get it taken care of now or wait till warrenty is closer to being up?

Hey, I noticed something awkward with my phone screen. On the edge under the home button it sometimes will click as if the screen is going back into place. I already took one phone back to the att warranty center and they gave me a new phone, but now it is starting again on this new phone. Are any of you getting this click as well?

Very common problem. Design flaw with manufacturing. I have a case so I don't notice

Not a design flaw. Thats because there is nothing under that section of the glass screen. You are actually bending the glass in and will crack it if you are not careful. Helpful hint. If you don't push there it won't click.
Can anyone tell me where the water damage indicators on the sensation would be? im buying a used one so I want to make sure there is no water damage.
In the slot where the battery goes, there's a round white sticker. If it turns red, there's water damage.
There's one or two inside too.
One on battery one on phone in battery bay both are white if good

thanks for the help i bought the phone pretty excited cant wait to root
Ok, so my Doubleshot has had the screen black and not responding across 4 roms now so I have concluded it is a hardware issue. As I Type this I am limited to soft kb only cuz anytime I slide the phone open it blacks out. Does that sound like a flex cable or the screen itself? Note: I have to tap the slide part to make the screen come back. Any help would be appreciated. This phone is hard to replace in my area without eBay which I don't trust... So please offer help or advice or whatever. Thanks.

Good news... My secondhand mytouch is under warranty and confirmed for shipping for warranty repair. Now to re-stock it. Depressing.

Don't worry. I've had to replace mine twice.

At least it's not the G2. If you haven't seen one, it has a really freaky hinge where the hinge hinges at both ends and does not bend, so the screen flips up and over, so at the top point the screen and the keyboard are a hinge length apart.... Sorry, that's a really worthless description, but I can't describe it any better!
Anyway, the G2 has a really unusual hinge, and my flex cable went out. I called HTC, and they said that I could send it in, but likely it wouldn't be covered under warranty because it breaks so often... Thanks HTC!
Well... It seems the flex cable is fine. I was preparing my phone for shipping and when i removed the front clip of my case the screen came on... Slid the phone open and rotated as prescribed... Did some research and some cases/covers obscure or put pressure on the proximity sensor causing it to disable the screen. Good news is i'm under warranty if i'm wrong... But since i took the front piece of my cover off the phone works perfectly. Weird huh? Didn't have this problem with the Body Glove case.
