Black specks on back of silk white - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

I received my OP6 silk white yesterday and there are a number of small black specks across the back that won't come off- it looks like a bit of dirt or something that's got trapped in the process of making the back or something. Has anyone else faced this issue? Trying to decide whether to get a replacement as even though they're small it drives me mad knowing they're there!

Get it replaced

Everyone I've shown it to says I'm being ridiculous as they're probably less than a mm each. I suppose I don't exactly sit around staring at the back of my phone.

Be ridiculous. Its your phone. Own it. My first op6 had a small crack on the top near the notch and everyone said the same thing. But I still got it replaced.

It's basically the same as this. The black speck in that photo to the left of the camera is what I have on mine, but mine is to the right of the camera and another further down.

Attachment doesn't seem to be working but it's the first photo of the silk white on this link here: https://www.androidcentral.com/which-color-oneplus-6-should-you-buy

I would say get jt replaced while you can. But be ready to face the same issue with the replacement if it has that.

[Q] Volume Button Missing?

I just bought an HTC Sensation 4G off ebay, and when I got it I noticed that the volume buttons are missing. The buttons themselves still work - I pressed both with a letter opener and they're fine. I've contacted the seller about this, but is this http://www.parts4repair.com/volume-button-for-htc-sensation-sensation-xe/ the correct piece to replace what's missing? I really don't want to return it, because otherwise the phone is in great shape and works perfectly.
Yeah those look to be what you need. Cheap
The problem I'm seeing is that the seller is based in Hong Kong, and so is every ebay seller for this item.... It's going to take a long time for the part to get here.... what about this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mint-OEM-HTC-Sensation-4G-Door-Back-Cover-With-Power-Volume-Button-Sensation4G-/130622693934?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e69b8222e#ht_1207wt_1163? I don't really need an entire new back door but if it comes with the part and will get here faster I'll pay $7 more.
Yeah that's a way better buy. US seller with free shipping.

Thanks for the help. Also, what was HTC thinking, making the volume/power buttons part of the back cover rather than the phone itself? It's not surprising that this is a common problem; at least according to Google. It's just bad design.

Yeah I agree. This is the first phone I ever had with almost everything on the back cover.

[Q] strange issue with screen

Me and my wife both have the htc 8x for tmobile and about 10 minutes ago her screen literally exploded... I am just wondering if this is a common issue or what needs to be done. I know how to replace the screen and what not but this is really confusing me. And she was laying on the bed with it sitting on her chest not plugged in or anything. It looks as if someone hit it with a hammer or it fell square on a rock. Any input is appreciated.
This is the first I have ever heard about something like that happening to this device, but it sounds like a manufacturing defect. I'd try and get it replaced under warranty.
Semi-related, but someone else on the Verizon forums has his Gorilla Glass phone spontaneously explode as well. When he contacted Corning, they wanted him to send it in so they could investigate. https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/772042?start=6
Yeah it was weird... She was about 10 feet or so away and it madt an audible pop. It blew glass all over her. We were able to put the bigger pieces back on and tape it over but still... The phone was new in box like 2 weeks ago.

I'm not trying to question your account because it is definitely bad either way. But I am confused regarding the first post that says she had it on her chest on the bed, and your latest post saying she was 10 feet away? Trying to visualize what happened.

HTC Letter fell out

Today the glue filled into the C that is engraved in the back of the phone came out. I'm kinda an HTC fanboy so this left me pretty upset.... My camera lens is also really scratched up. Has anyone dealt with this issue and how was it handled?

Someone else mentioned this happening. HTC offered to fix the phone which meant the owner would be without the device for ~10 days. You may look into seeing if VZW will swap it out.

Slickwraps sells lens protectors, but that's probably a moot point since it's already scratched. However, buying some protection might help prevent further damage.

My Xperia Z3's back cover has been cracked

I've given the phone to my Niece to take some photo and video. When she gave me the phone back, I found it cracked at the back. Not sure how it was cracked. I might be due to excessive heat dissipated while the screen stays on for few minutes. What do you think about it? How I can repair it?

Isn't that tempered glass over your Z3?
You will need this part:
http://www.witrigs.com/custom-back-cover-for-sony-xperia-z3-green
I just replaced the front and back of mine as it cracked on my wife accidentally doing something with the kids.
You will need to transfer your stock NFC sticker/chip to the new cover before installation. This company ships quick and is very reliable. If you do not have the suction cup and guitar pics I recommend it, you will need it for installation. As well as a heat gun or hair dryer.
You can see a how to video towards the bottom of the page I linked.
Good luck.

No, there was no tempered glass in the back. Tempered glass protector is in the front side.

OnePlus seal issue

Just received my Pro and have an issue with the seal around the screen. There is some pieces sticking out and near the grill in the second pic you can see that the distance from the grill to the screen isn't consistent. Concerned about water and dust.
Anyone else have this issue?
I've contact 1+ and they want me to send the phone back for them to look at it and decide if it deservers replacement. They said it could take 7-10 days, 12gb/256gb models are 9 days out right now so I figure it will be longer. I can't be without a phone for 2 weeks basically. They can't cross ship even if I put down a deposit for the second phone.
Any suggestions?

Dude go see my post I just made in this forum. Run away, 90 hz isn't worth this.
Is this something you just noticed or is this something you typically inspect for with you get your phone(s)?
No issues on mine. Did you drop your phone OP? Is that even a oneplus 7 pro?
Yes it is and I just barely took it out of the box when I took the pic.

I just got back from exchanging mine. I didn't have a seal issue but my issue was the screen colors started to appear washed out after about 3 days of use. At first I thought it was maybe a setting or something until I rebooted into fastboot and recovery. The white text also appeared washed out on there. It was definitely a hardware issue. The screen eventually became an all yellow tint and was completely unresponsive to any touch input. I'm hoping it was just a lemon and I have better luck with my new one.
My device also is flawless on both sides. Great build quality as always when buying a Oneplus.
But yours definitely looks kind of odd and personally it would totally freak me out.
