Sl3100 Dust Under Screen
« on: April 24, 2006, 04:40:47 am »
If theres a spot that looks like a dead pixel and u look at it from an angle & it seems to disappear, if I recall correctly that should be dust under the screen.

Is dismantling the zaurus screen to clean under the glass a pain?  Any1 have a picture guide?

I had dust under my 3000 screen. I just removed the screws and blew through it and it went away

I pulled apart of zaurus *very carefully* and took out the LCD module.  Found it too much hassle to take off the glass screen, and besides I would of probably added more dust in their.    But its simple to do as long as you have a completely dust free environment, just need to push in the 4 or 6 metal catches that hold in the glass & blow with compressed air.   The dust free environment is a trickly one.   I have fluff balls as big as kittens in my house  

lol!  it took me 2 hours to put on a ultraclear screen protector.  kept on taking it off to get rid of trapped dust as I was laying it down.   grrr!

One good way to get a dust free environment would be to run the shower for abit on hot, & the steam should be able to eliminate most of the dust in the environment before working.
