    So over the last few days, the weather in So.Cal has been extremely nice and there hasn't been a need for a jacket, a sweatshirt or nay type of winter clothing that increase the number of pockets. lol.

    the only option for my phone was the back pocket, now it seems ridiculous. I only had one corner of the phone before that wasn't very responsive but now almost on all my corners I have to push hard to get a response and there is no click sound. as if the top screen has moved closer to the bottom one.

    has any one seen this? can I fix it. some other way than going to Verizon store, can I replace the screen or no replacement screens released yet.

    A replacement screen will cost you $100 at cnn.cn, but if you sat on the thing it's probably more like you squished its insides than the actual screen is broken somehow. Do a search for the torx screw fix and try that first.

    Try that and see if adjusting them fixes it. You may only need to adjust the one without the sticker.

    Just be like Ari Gold from Entourage and carry your phone in your hand all day.

    That is why I use a holster.

    Hope the torq screw fix works for you, it sounds like it should

    this somewhat happend to me to. Went to the barber shop, was using it while I was waiting, got called up and didnt think about it and just slipped it in my back pocket.

    Now I have this little circle right in the middle of my screen and everytime I type and touch the screen it distorts much the same way it does when you put heavy pressure on a LCD screen.

    ahh yes. i bet u sat and the screen facing the inside and not the outside. i was conscious enough to put the screen to the outside. not sure if this trick will work for you. but try it, it might pull the screen a bit further back so that will give u a bit more pressure before distortion.
