So, I've noticed the ''beatsaudio'' logo on the back of my One S is slowly disappearing. Kinda small detail, but still not nice to see that after only a couple of months, the phone shows (small) quality error like this.
Who else has this?
Jason M: Hi, thank you for contacting HTC Support, I am looking in to your query now.
Jason M: Sorry to hear that. This would be classed as user wear & tear, and not a warranty issue, sorry to say.
Jason M: I have literally no other reports of such an incident. This would not be a warranty cover.
Jason M: The full conditions of your warranty can be found at - http://www.htc.com/www/help/warranty-statement/
Me: Too bad. Maybe I'll see if I can rmove the logo completely myself.
Jason M: Thanks.

My fiancee's is completely removed and mine just has the beats part removed.
I removed it with a metal 3.5-6.5mm audio jack converter, on the grey version. Definitely not recommended on the black version. The grey version seems resistant to any kind of scratching, whereas the black version.. well, you know the issues with the black version.
Just got a refurbished one a couple of days ago since my first one had WiFi problems. And now I'm noticing my logo is disappearing . Never noticed till now. What a shame.

Good, the beats logo is stupid. I wish mine would fade away too.
I hope mine disappears, it's an eyesore to an otherwise beautiful phone
I've had my S for a month now, and only part of the o in "audio" is missing. I usually use a case.

A little high % alcohol on a paper towel or Qtip will probably remove it.

Mine either. Grey and it doesn't even scrape off. At least it's greyscale and not red. Odd, on my MT4G, the "non slip" back of the battery cover would scrape off with a fingernail but the paint on this logo seems impervious to removal.

Not at all. A metal audio jack will do on the grey version without leaving any scratch. I used much force doing so, as well. Make sure to test it first: slightly try to scratch the back of the device with the jack. If you see a "scratch" appearing, wipe it of with your finger. It's only metal dust from the jack. (as long it's not a true gold jack or anything, just a regular lightweight metal.) If you don't see any real scratch as result (if you actually did get a scratch it would be barely noticeable, if not pushed too hard), it's pretty safe to scratch of the logo.

I was thinking maybe some goo gone would do the trick. I once used a common household cleaner to clean my toaster and it wiped the Hamilton logo right off. I was like wtf but come to think of it, it may have been a mixture of ammonia/water or 409.
Sadly my phone has been dropped a few times before the otterbox so it’s got a few minor scratches on the edge and the plastic pieces themselves are pretty dinged up.
I actually just scratched the rest of the text off with my nail.
I kinda like the logo. Mine hasn't come off. Only used ceaseless for about a week. Then I put a case on. Had it since late june

Just got mine in the mail and applied it. Followed the instructions to the letter, and so far I still see streaks/residue behind the cover. The instructions say this will clear up within a few days so I won't pass judgement just yet. If the residue and streaks clear up like they say I would definitely recommend this. I will post back and update!
***Edit**
Forgot to add that as far as I can tell this cover has no effect at all on touch sensitivity.
You get the full skin or just the screen?
I just ordered mine using the get25 promo code to get 25% off. If it's anything like the Zagg skins the streaks will disappear.

The screen was somewhat straight forward and easy, the only complication I would see with installing it on the body is the corners not wanting to apply without some air bubbles.
Wish me luck. ... LOL hope it fits perfect with no bubbles imperfections piss me off

Mine should be here by Friday. Great job how long did it take?
Probably about 30 minutes. I did the screen in the bathroom with high steam from the shower to keep the dust down, and then did the rest in my kitchen. I did use my wifes hairdryer to aid in drying the smaller pieces on the top, bottom and sides. you have to be careful when doing the H shaped part across the back and sides. You adjust the right and completely move the left by accident. I will let everyone know if the micro-bubbles dissipate as advertised and will take additional photos in a couple days.
My screen has cleared up a little bit in the past few hours. Hoping it clears all the way up.
Nicely done slimm13. The micro bubbles will go away if they are anything like Zagg's IS.
It looks did a really great job putting it on. Curious though that the edges aren't fully covered...it leaves those little 't' shaped spaces. The Zagg seems too fully covers the rounded edges...
Thank you guys for the kind words, I think it is far from perfect but serviceable. I was surprised about the corners as well, thought it was odd. I had hoped that there would have been some extra material and I would have cut pieces to fit in said holes.

Those that cover the corners "well" are very easy to rub/peel off that corner as you just take it in and out of pocket. (I'd like to take a picture of my current phone to show you what I'm talking about.... it's ugly... but that gotta wait till my Nexus One arrives... ) Next time I'm getting these skins I'd look for the T-shaped ones with a hole at that pesky corner.
i scratched off the matte finish on the metal cover and it revealed a very stunning undercoat. I think it looks much better. I used an expired credit card to scratch it off. do not use anything metal to scratch it off, it will leave a scratch on the undercoat.
Done on a white mt4g. i think the different colored mt4g have a darker back cover.
Also it takes a very long time to do.
Pictures were taken with flash off because it shines that much.

Looks nice. How is the texture of the undercoat? Is it slippery like the stock overcoat or is it more grippy?
it has a lot more grip but it does collect more oils from your hand
Hmmmm....I think I may do this in the next couple of days. I'm also wondering how it may turn out if I use my dremel to create a brushed look...decisions decisions.
I'm not sure if you want to do this, if u look next to you sd card theres a gold contact that touches the inside of the battery cover. So the coating my be a barrier between the metal and our hands to prevent signal issues i.e. Iphone 4 like signal issues. Anyone who's tried this confirm either way? I love the look just don't want to regret it later.
Did you just rub the edge of the card on it for hours? Because I've been doing it for a couple minutes and I don't think it's getting me anywhere.
There was a slight chip where you open the phone and i just used a credit card to dig under it. if you do it right, the paint will chip off into a fine powder

Do we know if the battery cover is powdercoated or anodized? Either way I like the black but the silver does look sexy with the white phone.

If you look on the underside of the cover, the spot on the cover which touches that contact is etched away. This is to ensure contact is made without obstruction. So there is no "barrier" between the cover and this contact. Just the opposite. My guess is that it is a ground circuit to divert static electricity. Since the cover is made of metal, this would make sense. Scratching off the outer dullcoat should not have any negative effect.

Seems good, as I said it's not very bad just a bit on each side. It just isn't 100% flush.
Hmmm...it should be flushed
Are you sure the door is latched securely? Sometimes I must really force mine to close. Like sporty377 said, this can affect your signal if the door isn't completely secured.
I am disappointed with the overall quality of the TB exterior. It pales in comparison to my old N1. Seems like HTC did a rush job and threw together a bunch of leftover stuff from the parts bin and said F*ck it. People will buy it regardless, just get it out to the carriers.
Its snapped all the way down. I will get some pics in a few. It doesn't seem like it's affecting anything.
Pics added. Best pics I could get, which it sort of looks worse in the pics. I don't see it affecting anything. This is a like new bolt, and I have other other like new that is like this also. I do have one more coming tomorrow, which I only hope may be better.

There are a number of "catch points" that need to be squeezed tight and snapped into place around the outer edge of the cover.
If it is tight, and it is within the first 30 days (or did it change to 14--can't recall), and if it's troublesome, have VZW either give you an entirely new phone or a new battery cover.

Looking closely, there is a slight gap at both top corners, but one would have to be looking very closely and specifically for such to notice 'em.

I think all will have a very slight gap, but it should be uniform all the way around the battery door. You could try snapping it on with a different method. Top first, then middle or vice versa.

Anyone already have this case?
I found it on another Chinese website and decided to buy it on eBay (seemed a bit safer to me than entering my CC info on another website I don't even know).
Looks good to me, nice and slim...Ill post more once I get it
They also have it in red, black, etc. here:
http://www.obostore.com/nillkin-ultra-slim-hard-shield-faceplate-for-lg-optimus-2x-p-1293.html
Initial Impressions:
Got the red one today...Ordered the red one from OBOstore and a white one from ebay...
I'll start first with the quality of the case, a LOT higher than I expected....a little thicker than the incase slim on my iPhone Little flexing, Satin feel, feels excellent in the hand. Fitment is perfect, covers from edge to edge on the phone. If you have an invisibleshield on the back of the phone, that HAS to come off or the case doesn't fit correctly.
Top and bottom are completely open so little protection on the top or bottom, but the corners, sides, and back are completely covered (other than the camera of course) The case gives a little lip to the screen on the phone so you can set it face down and not worry about scratching it.
All in all, very pleased with my purchase and can't wait for my white one to come in
and of course...peektures!
I apologize for the quality, all I had was my mom's mytouch 4g

I've had the seidio case for like 3 weeks now, and still no scratches on my phone from it...I'm sorry that other guy or guys had that problem, but I don't.
I have a blue seidio surface case, a blue trident case, a white flexible gel case, and now I'm waiting on my red and white nillkin hard cases, lol.
The funny thing is...the only case I ever use is the seidio...not sure why I have all these other cases.
if you rip the case off I can see how it may scratch but if you take it off slowely its fine.
Has anyone gotten this case yet? I've had something similar to this from a company called Empire or something for my Nexus One and it was horsecrap. Fit was so loose I had to put double-sided tape on the inside to make it stay on.
Case looks VERY VERY nice. Please leave some feedback about how it fits. Very interested in this case. My speck is already falling to pieces. YUCK

Just got my Note 3 and I'm loving it. However, I recently noticed upon closer examination of my screen that there is a permanent smudge mark that ceases to go away. It only appears when there is a large build-up of normal smudges or when I breathe on the screen.

Anyone else have this issue? To check, just breathe onto the screen creating that fog-like cover.
From what I have gathered, it is "oleophobic screen coating" wearing off but I have had my Note 3 for four days so it has not gotten that much usage.
I don't have that problem. Does this only happen when you have smudges or breathe on it? If so then I would suggest a screen protector either tempered or film.

Once I wipe the screen of all smudges, it goes away. But as soon as there are more smudges it becomes visible.
Is it worth exchanging?

Mine seems OK, I'd suggest bringing it back also. If it is the coating of the screen vanishing this fast then that's a build issue. - could also cause weaknesses to the screen any time further down the line.

I have the exact same issue. My smudge is alot bigger. Its horizontal a little above center of the screen and about an inch long. It drives me crazy. I can wipe my screen completely smudge free and if I breath on it, there it is! It is starting to exceed the limits of my OCD medication!! :banghead:
Edit: Mine was like this since day one and noticed it about 10 minutes after purchase.

I have never seen anything like that before. If that was my phone i would be seeking a replacement ASAP!!!!
i have the exact same issue here, except the location, which makes it interessting:
mine is exact over the place of the indicator LED, and goes up to the top in a "U" form!
and i do not know why, but i did not encountered it before. could the light (and the minimal
temperature) from the led has something to do with this?
Probably is the coating worn off. I had something similar on my old phone. I ended up polishing the entire screen with a little bit of white toothpaste to remove coating elsewhere and give it a better appearance.
Wow I didn't think there we some many cases like this. What the hell is Samsung doing to these screens?
Reading this thread. .. It's just unbelievable that you guys haven't gone and got a replacement. No way should you be having any of these issues on an expensive flagship phone. Take it back is all I'm going to say. I haven't got it. ... If I breath on it the fog disappears Just as Fast as it came. ..

I agree. I would of taking this piece of crap back. I have already had one replacement. These phones man I swear.
I hope they replace everybody's phones. We pay to much money for crap like that to happen.

You do realize that eventually you will get a Google phone with a defect? WHERE WILL YOU TURN THEN?
HELLO, WINDOWS PHONE
I've walked on the top corner of my note 4. Since then, a stain appeared ont the screen. That stain keeps growing covering up the display day after day. It is dark at the center, blue in the midlle and purple at its ending side. What must I do to remove it? Please, can anyone advice me.
