HTC One X light leak fix?

**MangoPowah** · 10-30-2012, 09:45 PM

Soo... my HOX has a light leak under the capacitive buttons (where the screen meets the bezel) and some on the bottom right side. I used my upgrade on this 2 months ago, so going to AT&T and swapping it out isn't an option. Plus, I've heard too many horror stories of HTC's repair service, so that's off the list too.

Would there be any Macgyver fixes I could do, by any chance?

It's not that bad tho,I have Little leakage too. On my original HTC EVO the leakage was horrible. It's not so bad on the one x.

MacGyver fix? A piece of electrical tape over the leak...

I was actually thinking of putting some kind of liquid rubber or whatever in the spaces, something more inconspicious...

But a great suggestion nonetheless

Would make more sense to get assistance with the OCD before applying liquid rubber to your new phone. Just kidding.
I would think that a light leak means an issue with the seal, which should be repaired by the manufacturer. You dont want to mess with it and then have a bigger mess on your phone and still have the light leak issue.
