Well, it happens to my TD2 as well. I sent it back to PDA Expert for them to check, they told me it's screen protector problem. Ask me to change my screen protector. But in my case, the oily patch only appears sometimes. Especially when my phone is hot. In the middle of the screen. Seems like it's getting bigger. Do you think in my case, it is Newton Ring issue? Hows your PDA doing after the repair? What did they change? Any charges? Thanks.

Try this, hope it works for you.... SETTINGS -> ALL SETTINGS -> CONNECTIONS -> USB to PC -> ACTIVESYNC -> Enable faster data sync (uncheck/untick the box)
Good luck!

hey.. send straight to SIS distribution.. mine is exactly same as urs.. the oily patch looks like come from between the screen n ur screen protector.. in actual fact.. its not.. its the digitiser dropping down to the lcd itself.. faster send it back to SIS distribution when the oily patch is small, if big, dey can say no warranty d because they can blame it to user abuse(that is with overseas htc ppl).. i read alot of htc user overseas suffer from huge amount of payment cause htc blame it to user abuse..
as for my case, i sent bak for warranty, get it bak in 1 week.. i even requested a new phone if i din get back within a week(cuz i jus bought my phone for 3 weeks)
no charges for me as said in SIS distribution(glenmarie) that this phone has tis as a common issue..
they change my touchscreen panel n the whole front bezel.. my bezel got scratched d, but this problem requires them sumhow to change the front bezel, soo i kinda got a new phone is a way.. back to new condition..
my pda doin fine after the repairs.. i changed to a better screen protector.. slightly thicker soo can tahan slightly harder press.. n get a better pouch.. the in the box pouch not tat frenly to me.. alwiz when trying to pick up phone, when sliding phone out from the cover, sure accidentely hit sum buttons den call missed.. swt..
ur oily patch can be removed by like rubbing the entire screen with a cloth entirely den can use again, but tat is a temporary measure..
i like the customer service in pda expert.. i bought there too.. 1st in customer service, not soo good in service as not many of their workers are well known to this newton ring issue.. ironically pda arena states this as a common problem when i tried to buy the phone from them.. i dint believe, went to pda expert.. bought from them instead.. after sent bak for warranty, asked them about it.. they say no such problem/issue..
anyway, since u bought a original phone from SIS with 1+1 warranty, alwiz sent them back to SIS for repairs for the 1st year, den 2nd year oni sent to shop.. haha..
and yes,l i suspect urs is newton ring issue.. it can happen oso when the device is quite hot..
