    Hey there,

    I was wondering if anyone could help me...

    Last night I was drinking with friends and my Storm was on the table... Then... someone accidentaly ramed into the table and a glass of Rhum & Coke, some beer, some Gin and some Wine went over my Storm... I immediately pulled the battery and waited a 48 hours after I cleaned my BB... When I put the battery back in it, it booted perfectly and everything was working fine...

    There was only one problem... There is many white spots under the screen but it still works perfectly and... I can even see through those white spots... it looks like if there was some pixels with a higher brightness than the others...

    I took some pics to show you...

    Any idea of what I could do to fix this? (If it is possible of course).

    That is never going to get better. I had a Pearl that looked like
    that. I think it is the sugars that causes that.

    lol sorry, i'm french canadian

    "I wait 48 hours before I put the battery back in"

    amazinglygraceless: That's what I thought...

    I'm thinking about replacing the LCD screen and the screen digitizer...

    Do I realy need to replace both or just the screen?

    Thanks!

    Thanks AG.

    Ouch.. that's some harshness right there. If you press on the screen, do those dots smash outward?

    Nope... the dots always stays the same... it never move or change... I can't see them on a dark bg.. only on light ones...
