Some folk flame over the current state of repair. Almost all the suppliers exchange failed phones. So I expect you to flame out over it. Try to not do that and get it exchanged.

Hey all. Anybody know anything about this? I have a Straight Talk phone that overheated on me. I was on the Internet viewing some YouTube videos when it got extremely hot and shut down. I let it cool, removed the cover, and saw this brown fluid on the battery, the cover, and the phone. I cleaned it up and restarted it and the phone works. But the keyboard function quit working.
I figured the phone is bad so I am in the process of transferring to a spare phone. But, in the meantime, I need to use THIS phone. I charged it yesterday and now the keyboard function works. It has not gotten hot again but I'm not using it for anything other than phone calls and texts.
