Display Scratch Prevention Idea

I'm thinking about how to build up the 2 small rubber bumpers to reduce keypad contact with the display. Maybe, a very tiny bit of clear caulking, flexible glue, or liquid rubber applied with a toothpick to each bumper ... flatten and let dry. It looks like all they need is a little more height to work better. I'll have to check out Home Depot. Trying to avoid having to use a screen protector or a case covering.

Thats what i did.

Run strips of clear silicon on a sheet of paper and let it dry.

Cut peices of the dried silicon the exact shape and size of the bumpers already on the phone.

with tweezers grab the cut peices and put a tiny fresh drop of silicon on the bottom of the cut peices.

And then plact the cut peices on the bumpers already on the phone.

Holds and works great.

Excellent ... I like your surgical approach ... glad I'm not the only one trying a custom fix for this defect! Thank you!
