Do you need to have the verizon insurance for the phone to get a replacement or does the regular warranty when you purchase the phone cover it?

My guess is that the shavings are coming from within the speaker itself when it self destructs - not being picked up from the environment when not using a case.
Someone reported in another forum that a Verizon rep told them a software fix was in the works. I'm guessing the software fix will only limit the audio output to prevent the speaker from being damaged.
I think there just from pockets or wherever you might set the phone....The other I sat my phone down on my desk here at work....picked it and a paperclip actually stuck the back of the phone from the magnet of the speaker!....It's that easy!
My speaker has sounded like shit for a few months now. I've been needing to return it.
Blown Speaker Update - Well I just blew out my 4th Incredible Speaker! Only thing that seems to be the same on all the phones is my plastic/rubber case. So I am cutting the back out of the case around the speaker area and see if that fixes my newly shipped 5th phone! All I can figure is the case is causing the speaker sound to bounce back at the speaker and cause damage over time. That's my theory!
Yeah I always have the metal pieces coming out before the speaker takes a crap. What would the tape be for?
Called just now got my refurb coming on Tuesday. Hate to part with my launch day INC but the speaker is driving me nuts. Hopefully the replacement has no issues with it. I refuse to baby my device as far as volume goes. HTC did extensive testing regarding speaker/sound capabilities. My HTC Vogue handled everything I could throw at it without any problems for 2 years and I expect the same for my DI.
