Seem like a pretty common problem...only had my phone a month and already have a load of dust behind the inside screen. Seems to enter via the voice button as it is thicker there and then dissapates across the screen.

I have the exact same problem about dust benhind the screen. AND I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO DO. First you all need to know that the razr screen still has a protective piece of plastic on it, even when you remove the plastic it was shipped with. The second layer (on the screen) is intended AND MUST stay on at all times (or you will ruin your screen). If you get an excessive amount of dust build=up behind there what you can do is go to the CNET ONLINE STORE (which has parts and accesories for most phones) and order a new moto v3 screen plastic protective cover for around $5. Once you recieve it, pull off the old one with tweasers (on the top corner), and then carefully align the new one from bottom to top. There are directions online for this. I have seen it many times. Ill try to look for the exact link, if anyone else needs help with this issue.

I've considered doing that before, but wouldn't the problem persist? Because if it will just get worse again I'm not going to bother.

I've had my Razr for almost a year now and i've also found dust constantly collecting behind the screen but there is a very easy way to get rid of it. If you get a pin and push it down behind the plastic screen cover, you can carefully slide it along the entire perimeter of the plastic until it pops off. The plastic LCD screen cover is only held on by an elastic adhesive glue so its not that difficult to remove it. I simply wiped out the dust, and replaced the screen and haven't had the problem since. Oh, and if you accidentally damage the screen cover, you can find replacements for 3 bucks online.
also, the first time I had this problem, I took it back to the cingular store that I bought it at and they replaced my phone because it was under warrenty, however, I had the same problem with the replacement so I resorted to cleaning it myself.

Try checking out this website http://www.mobile-review.com/review/motorola-v3i-en.shtml
If you scroll down the page (about 1/3 of the way) theres a close up picture of the ear piece and an arrow points almost directly at where you can slide the pin. Hope this helps.[/url]
