I bought a Razr v3 at Christmas. I was using the phone outside a couple of weeks ago and noticed that there is dust under the screen...and it seems to be getting progressively worse...there are no cracks in the case or screen???? That should not be normal!!! Since Cingular doesn't offer one of those extended warranties, will the manufacturers warranty cover that?? Should I take into a cingular store and see if they can get it fixed through the manufacturer?.
any advice would be greatly appreciated.

your phone has a 1 year warranty, so Cingular should at their discretion replaced it through the warranty exchange, i got my replaced like that but not for the same reason..

All new phones come with one year manufacturer warranty. Your provider should replace the phone for you. If not, tell them you are cancelling and refuse to pay cancellation charges since you are disputing those charges for their failure to meet the warranty. Dont let the carrier exploit you.

Call 1-800-801-1101 for warranty replacement, explain the problem, and they will tell you if it is covered or not. If it is, they send you a replacement & you send yours back. If it is not, go to a wireless repair store & they will remove the plate & clean it out for 5 or 10 bucks. How to find a repair store??? Well, they are few & far between, call your local Cingular store & ask if they know of any... you may have to call a couple stores as they are not affiliated. Another option: buy the appropriate tool & get a compressed can of dusting air ($2 @ office depot, staples, etc), remove the plate, dust without thouching the internal components, & put er back on. Please use discression, don't void your warranty by screwing something else up. Be careful not to bump the speaker out of place. Hope this helps
